When I was a little girl I firmly believed that the true sign of childhood wealth was wearing braces. I had stubbornly staright teeth AND a poor family. No hope for braces for me. After hearing a child at school murmer about me being traler trash, I vowed that i would make everyone think I was rich. I arrived at school the next day- and everyday for several weeks wearing tin foil on my teeth.
