150 awful days left



I thought I would greet you all with a horrible side profile shot. I feel like my chin has gotten weaker, it has no definition at all. You can see how my upper jaw is retrognathic, and well the convex in my profile.
Pretty much my face looks stupid. I don't remember it looking this stupid, I guess the braces are doing their job to make me as horrible as possible before the big day.

It's 150 days away from my booked surgery, but I'm still hoping I get an earlier date because I don't think I can handle waiting any longer.

This year has been HORRIBLE!!!!
I feel so not like myself, I hate that I have to spend my university years in braces, and I hate that I look 15!

This year has sucked in so many ways, but in the end I managed to get through another year of university and somehow my boyfriend hasn't ran off to another country to get away from the crazy jaw surgery woman. Neither of us expected  life to change so much throughout our relationship. I feel like every aspect of my life has changed. I stopped working, went to university full time, change my hair, stopped going out, became a huge nerd, GOT BRACES!!! (worst part by far!), my family may have gotten more crazy and the past two years I have been dreaming of moving out, but my education would suffer, and I really want to finish school as soon as possible.

I'm sorry, this is the only place I can come to complain about how shitty life is right now.
What it comes down to is that I am just not happy with myself right now.

Sometimes I hate myself for deciding to do this, but my jaw is so off, so I know it's for the best.

Days need to go by faster!!!!
.......
I'm going to guess its been over 375 days in braces, surgery is 150 days away at the worst case.
It still feels like a lifetime.


Lets all mourn the loss of the old Terra. Feels like a lifetime ago...

  1. terra!! don't be sad:) you can be completely confident and happy because you look absolutey gorgeous! We always look back on the past with a rosey glow and forget all the things that were hard back then and just focus on what was good. Try to just focus on life in the present and have as much fun as you can until surgery comes:) also I think your hair looks reallyyy good now I prefer it darker! xoxox

  2. Terra, I agree with Rosa. Be kind to yourself! You are a beautiful person, and even though you feel that your appearance has changed, you really are still the same you. I remember when my countdown was at 150 days--honestly, some days went by really slow, but for the most part, it's been flying by. Try not to be so hard on yourself!
