having to wear braces sucks. it traps food in ur mouth, leaving you having to visit the toilet to pick the bits out unglamly unless you'd risk putting people off by picking your teeth at the table. besides, the tightening of teeth leaves you unable to speak properly, lest you push your tongue too hard against your teeth, sending the excruciating pain penetrating through the roots and gums. whats more, i miss biting into a large juicy apple, or any fruit for that matter.
drumsticks, burgers, fruits and basically anything edible which requires your teeth to be sunk in are a no-no for bracers (people who wear braces :] )

however much i hate the torture and inconvenience of having my braces on, they actually leave a sentimental value. okay this is emo shit. but i used to enjoy thinking of what colour i was gonna choose next for my braces. the colours i've tried, the colours which looked nice, the fugly colours (dark green) and so on. miss michelle isn't your average kid who would yell and scream just to avoid the dentist. but owells, nowdays a trip to the dentist isn't as fun as it used to be. "which colour would you like?" doesnt sound as exciting like it used to and i'd just do an impromptu selection- the usual subtle colour of pink or lavendar, and sometimes white :]

oh yes, braces cause your teeth to move easily even after you've removed them and gained "perfect" teeth.


now just ignore the above nonsensical post on my braces:D
