Don't be surprised if your wheel bearing starts humming in the next few weeks.

Hit another curb but on the oppisite side. That should give you a free alignment and put everything back into place

Wow, there are so many things that could be wrong now. I wouldn't be driving your car until you figure out what was damaged and what wasn't, it's just dangerous.

if the "breaks" are pooched, you really shouldn't be driving it. Try to get it looked at by someone that knows what they're doing. I don't mean to be harsh, but it sounds like you don't. A brake job isn't hard, but they are something that you don't want to take any chances with. When in doubt have a professional look at it.
