I was going through pictures today from growing up and stumbled across some old school photos. When I was looking at them I had to giggle because I have wished before that I had the looks I had back then. After seeing them today though, I realized I was a little on the dorky side and that I am actually very happy with the way I look today. And that is a great feeling :-)
Of course, I know you want to see them and
8th GradeDon't ya just love the blue/white scheme of private school uniforms?
Freshman Year.You'd think someone could have mentioned to me that my barrette was 100% to tight and made my eyes look slanted. And is it me..or do I look anorexic??!!
P.S.
Don't even ask about the perm!
Sophomore YearAh, the perm is finally relaxed and I've added a few pounds. And of course I got a zit right between my eyes the night before.
Junior YearI think I might have woken up late this day. At least I really hope I did. 'Cause the tight bun and lack of make-up....really not so appealing! I really loved that shirt though.
Senior YearI love this photo. Every time I see it I just feel beautiful. I had finally come into my own and was truly comfortable with who and what I was.
I'm loving the stroll. I was just reviewing them yesterday as a matter of fact. But I do have one question.?..... Where all are the earlier ones? There are some real sweet little girl ones too!! Oh, if I could have done with a camera then what I can do now!
ReplyDeleteOne last thought.... Do we continue to change that fast in four years as we get older? For my sake, I hope not!!
Diane (mom) - I think we do. But so far I believe it's been for the better :-) I will be posting some of the 'sweet little girl ones' soon. Funny thing is..I don't recall you ever using the word 'sweet' when associated with me growing up ;-) LMAO!
ReplyDeleteI love the pictures of your evolution. There are times when I look at mine and either think damn I look good or what the crap was I thinking.
ReplyDeleteOh toooo funny... i never noticed that your eyes looked slanted in that pic... these made me laugh.. youve got guts though.. i would NEVER put mine up here!!
ReplyDeleteLOVE your senior photo. GEORGOUS!
ReplyDeleteYou look just like my little sis's best friend!
OMG I needed a good laugh....according to jessica you didn't over sleep for that one picture you just loved to wear your hair like that...but nice try covering it up!
ReplyDeleteJesse - Thank ya :-) I look at many of my pics and wonder what I was thinking sometimes! LOL.
ReplyDeletePokey Puppy - lol. Not guts, I just think it's so interesting to see how much we change and how quickly.
Lisa - Thank you. I have about 5 different shots from that photo shoot and I loved them all.
Mrs. Jo - I did actually oversleep...thus the lack of makeup. As for the hair..yes I did wear it that way with that shirt. It looked good in person, but obviously was a bad choice photo wise.
I'm totally going to steal, I mean borrow, this idea and do this on my blog with mine.
ReplyDeleteI think the reason we evolve like this in high school is because we can't decide who we want to be yet so we keep trying new people on. I know that I haven't changed my looks in the past four years like I did back then!
Great picks and your senior year one is really beautiful!
Tracy - Thank you so much! And you are absolutely encouraged to steal this idea! Can't wait to see it!
