motivations

I’ve seriously considered sending a postcard to PostSecret revealing the real reason I got braces. I’m still mulling this over. Obviously if you saw a postcard with this information on it you’d know it was from me, because how many people send in postcards about their braces?

Got anything you want to submit to PostSecret but haven’t yet?

    Oh man, I have a drawer full of postcards that could be sent to Post Secret!

    :grins:

  2. yoshi says:

    this is the first i’ve heard of postsecret. thanks! looks pretty cool.

  3. whall says:

    I believe I answered that in a post last year.

    Michael Jackson fanaticism. All the way.

  4. Tori says:

    all my secret’s have done been posted (mailed that is, not officially posted tho)

  5. I could fill a shoebox!

    So, what IS the reason? You gonna spill?

  6. Creature SH says:

    I don’t have many secrets left these days… There’s always one or two friends who know stuff.

  7. Avitable says:

    I can’t think of any shameful reasons to need braces, even if you sucked your thumb or something and that pushed your teeth out.

    I love the Postsecret books.

  8. Poppy Cede says:

    Hilly, I hope you’re slowly sending in the drawer…

    Yoshi, I cannot believe there was one person left on the planet who didn’t know about PostSecret. I am glad I found you.

    Wah, are you kidding?

    Tori, always time for new ones! :grins:

    Karen, well, I’m probably going to send in a postcard!

    Creature, good for you. I guess I’m a bit more private than I mean to be.

    Avi, I am not ashamed of why I got braces. It’s just quirky, like me.

  9. whall says:

    Nope, not kidding. See for yourself (if you dare)

  10. Poppy Cede says:

    I remember that now. I just needed a nudge, my brain doesn’t retain anything.

  11. Lynda says:

    I have thought of sending something in, though I am not a regular reader. But then I think it is probably something others have sent in, and I am not sure I want to put it out there anyway.

  12. Poppy Cede says:

    That photo freaks me out, I’m so glad I don’t have braces anymore. But, nice lips and those are some pretty bad-ass canines!

    Yes, I’m admiring my own teeth and mouth. What?

    Lynda, the thought of sending in this postcard keeps cropping up in my head randomly. I’m not sure it will ever stop doing that unless I send in the postcard, but this alone isn’t good enough reason to submit it.

  13. I would tell my secret that I will eventaully send to Post Secret, but then it won’t be a secret anymore and when people see it, they will know it’s me….and that kinda makes sending it in to Post Secret a moot point, don’t you think?

    or maybe not, but I have so many, I can’t decide which ones to send in at the moment….

  14. sourpuss says:

    I’m sure I’d have a few secrets to post, if only I could think of them and then be eloquent enough with to put them in writing.

  15. Sybil Law says:

    Hmmm…
    This one requires thought! Now how am I supposed to think?!
    Kidding. Kinda. :grins:
    You should send it in. But now we’ll all know it’s you.
    Ancient Chinese secret, huh?!

  16. Poppy Cede says:

    Cissa, you don’t have to tell me, just trying to get you to think about the things that you are keeping to yourself but maybe want to get off your chest.

    Sour, PostSecret isn’t eloquent… Submit, SUBMIT!

    Sybil, I’m all about the Chinese and the secrets. :winks:

  17. turnbaby says:

    Hmmmmm pretty Poppy teeth?

    I am doing a show about secrets—that’s the topic for the first show of my second year of shows;-)

  18. I haven’t sent any secrets to PostSecret, but I often think, “OMG, that’s my secret,” while reading other’s secrets.

    I am jealous. When I had my braces, I had bands around all of my teeth. It was a suck fest. But then so was bucked teeth wh ich is what I would have had
