Embracing your braces

This might sound strange, but I really do miss my dental braces :| A common stereotype associated with people having dental braces is that they are geeks or nerds. In fact, the first person who might appear on your mind when it comes to dental braces is America Ferrera as she played Ugly Betty. But I don't happen to look at it that way. Actually, having braces gave me more confidence. I didn't really have any major problems with my teeth alignment but my parents were advised to put me on dental braces. And I am thankful that they did. I can smile with full confidence today. And for some odd reason, I'm really missing my braces. :'(

The picture on the left is me on braces then. Either way, I'm still a happy kiddo :)

P.S. the pretty girl beside me is my good college friend, Jelotin :D
