BRACES?! for the third time?!

Ok... so I'm home for the Christmas break. Which means it's a good time to schedule orthodontist appointments, dentist appointments, etc.... Went to my orthodontist this morning. She wants to put braces back on me again!!!!!!!! I'm TOTOALLY NOT impressed! First of all, because this would be the third time she's put braces on me. Second of all, she told me in the office this morning that it would be for about 2 months but when my dad called the office to see what was exactly going on (my parents have us three kids, all who have had braces - not exactly cheap.... so my dad wanted to know how payments were going to go, etc...) and the doctor told my dad that my braces would be on for more like 10-12 months! This is not cool. And I'm getting really depressed about it! *sob*
