Braces

It is a very strange feeling when you have metal in your mouth for almost 5 years then one day, it is all gone. I have had braces since 6th grade and I am a sophomore now. That is a long time. I just want to lick my teeth. They're all slimy. I also kind of forgot how to eat. I keep trying to pick things out of my teeth, but then there's nothing there and i'm like ooohh.
