So, the quality isn't the best cause I don't have a scanner and I had to try to get them to photo from my laptop webcam, but here goes:

High school first!

Prom!!





The day after prom!



Right after highschool, blond short hair!!



And at about age 20:

Wow, you're so pretty!

Did you get tired of having long hair in front like that? It looks so cool, like a living manga figure or something.

Too bad you've got such a crappy webcam, but even just from this little glimpse we can tell that you were a hot thing in the making.

Yeah, more often than not my hair was behind my ear anyway, and that just kinda ruined it.

And thanks. It's funny to look back and see how adorable I was and all that time I thought I was hideous. It's amazing what a few years perspective does for past self-esteem. Or something.

CarrieMpls said:

Yeah, self-esteem (when it comes to looks) is always trailing behind by at least a decade, isn't it? By the time we're in our mid forties we're going to look back and think "damn, in my early to mid thirties I could have been a friggin movie star".

Cute.

Old pics are the best.

Oh come on people, this thread deserves more replies.

Well he does look awful damn happy to have his hand on her thigh, doesn't he the boy look like he just won the damn lotto

CalhounSq said:

It was very lame, actually.

I had this whole romantic dessert picnic thing I made and we went to a park in Minneapolis with a gorgeous view of the skyline but it was cold or something and we didn't really even eat.
We tried to meet up with a few friends after that (I had very few friends at my own school at that point) but we missed them or something, so we just went back to my parents house. I don't even remember if we made out. We were fighting more than getting along those days.
The next day we drove to a park on the Wisconsin border for something to do, hence the silly picture.

CarrieMpls said:

Aww man, here I am hoping y'all made it to the car before he popped!

CalhounSq said:

CalhounSq said:

CarrieMpls said:

This'll make you feel better - I went to my senior prome ALONE b/c my bf & I had just broken up b/c he decided some baldheaded heffa was more interesting than me that week At the time it was very tragic

CalhounSq said:

Oh, I know it could have been worse. It was just such a silly night, is all.

violett said:

I think you know the people in all the pictures.

I think you remember John, that's Chris VanDeWalker in the blond pic and I'm hugging Suzaroo in the other one.

CarrieMpls said:

of course, i knew that was john and chris, but i couldnt see suzaroo right to tell if it was her. it just all seems so relative.

CarrieMpls said:

That is a fake Dutch name and is funny.

Adorable. Love the last one.
