Abstract
"The Bright Smile" has been an artistic piece of work that took over four years to write. Since this is no ordinary honor's project, this will be told in the first person so that people can understand that this is a reflection of the most destructive, darkest and disturbing time of my life. Every section will discuss the raw and honest emotions of this entire process. "The Bright Smile" is a self-discovery that will make you laugh, make you cry, and also tell the story of many women and men who are afraid to speak up.
