OH MY GOSH. I cannot believe it has already been a year since jaw surgery! It is absolutely insane how time flies, and how much has changed since this date last year.

'BEFORE' PICS

i...

was in my sister's wedding

turned 22

got my braces off

graduated from college

moved out of my sorority house after 2 years

vacationed in New York City and Washington D.C.

went to a wedding in Texas

packed up my life

and moved to California

got a job in marketing (what?)

moved into a townhouse in LA with my cousin

found out I was going to be an auntie again!

so many things are different, and I am so happy with where my life is at right now.

i have been so blessed!
thank you, to each and every one of you, for following me on my journey and offering words of encouragement when things were tough.
for everyone who is pre-surgery, i know the one year post-op may seem lightyears away, but soon enough you'll be standing right where i am today
happier. healthier. and with a much better smile :)

i used to always take pictures front on. if my face was turned a little bit, it was always a picture i hated.
now i don't mind.
(i will post more before/after pictures tomorrow. my computer is failing me right now)

'AFTER' PICS:

things have definitely changed :)
