I will probably have to wait till my ortho treatment's over (in Dec 2007) because I have to get my braces adjusted every 4 weeks which make it's harder for me to have a 6 month vacation :D
How do you hunt castles? With a big net? :D

Um...... I'm not especially well travelled myself. Brought up on a diet of holidays in Spain and then Florida, neither of which I particularly liked. I've only visited 2 'proper' european cities (Portimao - kind of dull and featureless, and Barcelona - one of the few places I'd genuinely love to live in). Regret not travelling more when I had the chance, I suppose.

Well, let me see... since I was 9? No wait, it was 9 years ago *just kidding* :P

I got them 9 months ago and it's two-year treatment. I have an out grown canine to reposition. I'm advised to stay around during the treatment.

Anyway, I was in constant pain and feeling rather uncomfortable for the first 3 months (it took me that long to get used to having a mouth full of metal!). Also, I rushed into the clinique a couple of times in the first 6 months for emergency fixing :D

The last few months have been quite good, apart from the soreness and pain I get after the monthly adjustment. What really exciting and encouring is I can see the tremendous progress every month. To cut the long story short, I will have very happy smile and beautiful teeth to show off all the time by the end of next year, since I love to smile and laugh a lot :lol:

I wish :P I don't mind to live in one of the castles if it's not too expensive.

At which point I feel obliged to note that the sectorgame :lol: smiley is one of the most disturbingly evil looking things I've seen on the net :D

Why would I trend the castle for two islands and living in a hut? :P

You're buying your own island and you choose some island off the coast of the UK! :D


Go buy somewhere on the world

But, but, but... he will get completely isolated from the rest of the world...

I don't see how that would be true. The rest of the world is no more than 10 minutes by boat.
