Let's pretend this is a gum ball ;]

Just one more day to go. Wow, this is starting to become nerve-racking. I think I'm also beginning to feel nervous and scared. What if it's painful to take them off? What if they chip a tooth? What if I get the nasty white squares where the brackets were?...

And I also feel sad, because I will miss them :[ I know, I know, I've been wanting to have them off since I got them, but I'm kinda used to them now.

I actually think they make me look somewhat cute, and younger. I liked when older men smiled at me, probably thinking I was fifteen. And how I could get away with wearing childish stuff, like a Hello Kitty purse, and a gummy bear necklace, because braces represent youth. Hopefully I won't look my age, haha.

Anyways, so I'll be uploading some pictures later today, the right before the after. Haha, does that make sense? Not really ^-^

Oh, and look, I'd forgotten I set my ReminderFox:

Never mind, I'll stick with days. It feels shorter that way :]

Just three more days... Will I make it?...

In the meanwhile, here's a picture of a cute llama I came across while looking for pictures of apples. Pretty random, but I think llamas are cute. They're all goofy looking and fluffy, and before you know it they've spit on your face. Lovely ^-^'

"Yesh, I'm goofy lookin' but Imma spit on yo' face!" ^-^

What I'm looking forward to eat.

When I got my braces on, they gave me a piece of paper with some important information. You know, stuff like the names of the appliances, how to keep them clean, what to do if they broke, and what NOT to eat.
For the first week, I followed it to the dot. Mostly because it was physically impossible to eat anything that showed resistance, but also because I'm a good girl :] But then I tried chewing gum, and I found that it wasn't sticking to my braces, and although it was a bit uncomfortable, I could chew it and I felt it gave my teeth some sort of "massage" effect. Kinda like a teething baby chews on those nasty plastic thingies.
From then I stuck the paper in my drawer to not be seen again. I think I ate everything that I wasn't "allowed" to. Until I broke two bands eating popcorn. From then, I became more cautious.
Enough intro, here are the foods that I will be stuffing my face with once I get the braces off:

Caramel Cubes
I've been craving these so much! And haven't had them in so long because they stick everywhere and it's just a mess.




Starbursts

Probably one of my favorite candy, I love chewy stuff! I've had this with braces, but same with the caramel cubes, they stick to everything ;-;


Popcorn

I love popcorn, it's one of my favorite snacks. I've eaten very little popcorn since I broke my bands, just for the fear of it, but I can't wait to watch a movie and stuff my face with popcorn.


Caramel Popcorn

I don't think I've had caramel popcorn in years (many, many years), but since I couldn't eat popcon, I've craved this. I don't even know were I can buy this...





Candy Apple

I was not a huge fan before, but you know how when you can't have something, you want it more than anything? Exactly. So I might have my mom pull her candy apple recipe, or I'll grab one from Google. I just need to take a huge bite out of it :]



So those are the foods that I'm looking forward to eat once I get my braces off.

One more week to go!!

I can't believe my braces journey is coming to an end so fast. I can't wait, though!! ^-^

Why do I think I look like a dinosaur in this picture? ;-;
