My Mom Went Crazy.
My mom went crazy, and let me move into my new room about a month earlier than she said I could!
Don't worry, she went crazy in the best way. Today's entry starts with me celebrating the fact that I got my own room about a month earlier than expected!

Aw, Truvy! Once again, here I am signing off a different name than my real one. Ha! I doubt I really threw anyone off the trail by these different signatures, but oh well.
I'm really happy for my 12-year-old self that I got my own room, even though it was downstairs and right in the middle of the common area while my little sister got to have the huge big room all to herself. (I'm literally just realizing that now as I type. She really got the better deal out of this. She got her own room at 10 AND it was the nicer, bigger room! Dang. Clearly I didn't care. I, after all, had a little bathroom sorta-kinda all to myself.
I finish out the entry talking about braces. At this point I was about halfway through the experience, and had rubber bands already and everything. And since we wrote about whether or not we had to share a room last week, today's journal prompt is about orthodontia! Who had braces as a kid? Who didn't? Anybody get them later in life?
