We'll file this picture in the what was I thinking category Proving that I was a fam before being fam was cool I decided to get a perm in 5th grade to look more like Prince.
Unfortunately the only picture I could find from this era didn't showcase the true extent of the loose fro. This is my school picture and I remember that my mother made me get a little hair cut and comb the curly locks before picture day. I was pissed because she cut all the curls off the side of my head and I didn't look anything like Prince anymore. Also, Prince would have never worn that boring shirt. Still I thought I would share this picture since it is showcasing some truly great hair. This picture should be used in salon's as a warning to white people who want to get a perm But to me this picture is so bad that it is cool .

Also, last night as I was looking through old pictures with a friend he commented that I certainly owned a lot of Prince shirts through the years.
It was very true as it seemed that the staple for me in my elementary and junior high days was a Prince t-shirt. I'm telling you I was the first fam. | |

I see nothing wrong with that picture, it's very cute. It's not even overboard. | |

Yeah, it probably is less shocking to people who don't know me. Me and my friend were cracking up last night. I just thought it was funny that I got a perm in an attempt to look like Prince | |

I just thought it was funny that I got a perm in an attempt to look like Prince I think we all tried to look like a celebrity at one time or another. Nothing at all wrong with it. We really should look back at this time with a fondness for the innocence we all possessed back when we are more carefree about life. | |

That's a very good point and I agree completely, but then I go to Paisley Park or a Prince concert and realize that some people are never able to grow out of this phase | |

Indeed. Then look at them as people who still possess some of those childhood qualities that made us all happier. I remember how aloof I would feel when I was pretending to be Cher, singing Half-Breed in front of my mirror... I miss it. In fact, I still do my own thing. | |

I remember how aloof I would feel when I was pretending to be Cher, singing Half-Breed in front of my mirror... I miss it. In fact, I still do my own thing. I'm not sure I agree with this exactly. It's okay to have childhood qualities, but I don't think losing touch with who you are is the same thing. Perhaps we are talking about different things. Some of the people I see at Paisley want to be Prince and have lost total touch with reality. They have nothing else besides Prince because they themselves are nothing but a fake extension of Prince and his persona. I find it extremely sad and scary. I realize that this is not you and I would very much love to see you pretending to be Cher sometime. I'm getting all hot and bothered just thinking about it | |
