Post pictures of yourself when you were younger.

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

Here I am, a flag waving six-year-old American on Memorial Day. I'm in my old "backyard" with the best dog ever, Jaycee, a Pit-Shepherd Mix. By the way, :wtf: did my parents dress me in?


Then, I became an asskicker at 13. I wasn't really a black belt there. I just had to compete as one.


Then, at 18, I was doing shoots for GQ with my senior prom date.

[ThomCat]

1. That prom shot is classic.

You both look so damned cool. :)

I'm sorry you couldn't make it yesterday. We missed you. :(

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

2. Yeah, it was part an act of nature and part me being a spaz.

The power went out for a second time during the night. Therefore my alarm didn't go off and I woke up around two. So with the bus schedule, I wouldn't have made it there until around 4pm. I had been up playing "Tropico: Mucho Macho Edition" until like 6am. Something about being a communist dictator is so addictive.

5. technically, all pictures of people are from when they were younger

Otherwise, you violate causality, and probably something horrible would happen to the whole universe...you know, if you tried to take a picture of yourself when you were older....

But yeah, here's one from about 10 or 12 years ago, I think:

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

7. Well, yes, but I meant years younger not 10 minutes ago younger.

:P

[swimboy]

11. RetroLounge can do it.

but then, he's a time-traveler.

[Maestro]

6. These are always fun.

Here is me trying to be Elvis Costello I guess. :eyes: Man, what was I thinking. This is almost twenty years old.

[Skittles]

8. a Skittles classic

I was 20, a sergeant in the Air Force and yes, that's my real hair color :)

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

9. Nice.

[lutefisk]

28. Yes, respectfully, nice.

Cute!

"One time a guy handed me a picture of himself, and he said, 'Here's a picture of me when I was younger.' Every picture of you is of when you were younger. 'Here's a picture of me when I am older.' 'You son of a bitch, how'd you do that? Let me see that camera.'"
-Mitch Hedberg

ChoralScholar, circa 1979.

[Crabby Appleton]

14. WTF did my parents dress me in

Well at least your parents had the excellent taste to dress you in a T-shirt with a crab on it!

22. I think the guy on the left was trying to channel...

[swag]

24. The guy on the left is a girl

and you may be right.

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

25. Oops. Oh well, old people and little kids call me a boy all the time.

[swag]

26. She looks much better since she chopped off her hair.

And she's just itching to get away from SF.

Still, it was fun piercing her face back then.

Even though it rotted out.

We all had ourselves a time.

[Jazz2006]

17. Okay ~ grade 4

I'm the one on the far left, second row, with pigtails.

[Hand]

18. Very cute!

By the way, do you suppose that boy seated in front of you knew the significance of the gesture he was making? :rofl:

[Jazz2006]

20. Ahh, Eugene Montague...

No, I doubt that he did!

:rofl:

[Jazz2006]

[u4ic]

33. Weren't you handsome!

:loveya:

All the fur on top is gone now. I tell my kids that It's a reverse mohawk!

They don't buy it! :rofl:

[Aristus]

23. I'm 37 now. This is when I was 21:

I'm on the right:

:loveya:

[bicentennial_baby]

34. Merci

I'm standing in front of a 6' x 4' Pulp Fiction poster...Can you see Uma's lips? :D

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

35. I actually didn't notice them at all until you pointed them out.

[bicentennial_baby]

36. Interessant...

:evilgrin:

How are you? :*

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

37. I'm okay.

I wasted much of my day. Now I'm awake and bored. I'm looking at the chaos that has erupted in my room due to me "cleaning" it, but I don't feel like doing anything about it. Basically, all my books, CDs, DVDs, videos are now disturbingly organized, but everything else I own has been throwed around haphazardly, so that it looks worse than before.

The highlight of my day was sushi and I played a bunch of Tropico. I found the install CD, so I installed it on this iBook. I think I'm addicted to being a communist dictator.

[bicentennial_baby]

39. I bet you're an awesome Commie Dictator!

:bounce:

I've been stressing all day, trying to prep for registration for skool... x(

Now, I'm drinking Bloody Marys and :smoke:

and listening to this:

"Over thinking, over analyzing separates the body from the mind.
Withering my intuition leaving all these opportunities behind.

Feed my will to feel this moment urging me to cross the line.
Reaching out to embrace the random.
Reaching out to embrace whatever may come.

I embrace my desire to
feel the rhythm, to feel connected
enough to step aside and weep like a widow
to feel inspired, to fathom the power,
to witness the beauty, to bathe in the fountain,
to swing on the spiral
of our divinity and still be a human.

With my feet upon the ground I lose myself
between the sounds and open wide to suck it in,
I feel it move across my skin.
I'm reaching up and reaching out,
I'm reaching for the random or what ever will bewilder me.
And following our will and wind we may just go where no one's been.
We'll ride the spiral to the end and may just go where no one's been"

Trippy.... :D

Good to see you girl!! :bounce:

[deadparrot]

38. 'kay, here goes:

Enjoying the company of my Chicago Bears...bear:


Obligatory "covered in food" photo:


Me with my baby brother (he's driving now...:scared:):

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

40. I know that feeling.

I can't believe my sister is going into college. I'm definitely the protective older sibling, but still the cool older sibling that will cover for her and buy her beer.

[jmm]

42. WTF did your parents dress you in?

Hey, I'm still trying to figure out who put these socks on me. So far I've narrowed it down to my mom and her best friend but they both want to blame each other.

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

43. Neither of my parents could really dress themselves half the time.

Of course, now my mom has discovered Abercrombie at 53 (I still some of her shirts now). I mean, the t-shirt isn't that bad, but the pants?!?!?!?! I wish the dog was sitting in front of me to hide that. Seriously, even the dog looks embarassed.
