Do you smile more?

I have never really smiled in pictures, but I laugh freely. When I talk to someone new that I find attractive, I do sort of cover my mouth, but once I'm comfortable, I start to think 'who cares?!'. I will be getting braces in the new year, and I think I will likely still not smile and hold my hand up near my mouth most times, but slowly I will try to remember to take it away because my teeth will be beautiful.

Beore, I used to smile with my lips tight shut over my teeth. Now, even though I am really concious of my braces, my smile is wide. I'd rather smile now, as people can see that I'm doing something about my wonky teeth, were as before, it looked like I didn't care!

Plus, if you smile, you immediately feel happier.

I'm also enjoying the looks I get from people when they realise I'm wearing braces. Had some people double take!! It makes me laugh!
