Holy shit JHo, you were ripped. Who would have thunk it from looking at you now eh?

I was trying to find the photo of me at the beach last year but I must've deleted it from my photobucket. Too embarrassing.

You work out in high school, jhocking?

Well, you have to bear in mind that was back when Joe knew Moses.

1989, I think. This is probably one of my favorite pictures. I wish now that I still had that dumb rabbit.

1993/4ish?, I think I am 5 or 6. (I am the taller girl in the polka-dots. God my mother put me in some horrible outfits...):

April 24th, 2005 (16):

(17, I think):

(18, trying to look cute before what might have been my first date ever, and subsequently only...well, you know, so far):

(19, a few months ago. The other girl is my younger sister. And my teeth actually look much better now...):

One picture was only available small, therefore all must be small! My logic is irrefutable.

I realize that I already posted a bunch of photos, but this one is just too funny.

I used to have long hair. Yikes. Also this is my 3000th post so pffft if you don't like it.

In the same vein, the BBC training course I was on (I'm at back centre):

The girl at front left is now Director of Audio and Music at the BBC; sometimes I wish I'd stayed!

I'm 3 or 4 here, I think.

I think I'm in 8th grade here, so somewhere in the 13-14 range.

Freshman in high school.

Me at 18, dolled up for the junior/senior banquet. I'd just gotten home from seeing the Pixies in Winnipeg, 14 days after I'd turned 18. I am a little hungover still in this picture.

I worked the night shift that summer, which explains the pale but not the rest.

Sans the stupid makeup, but plus a stupid expression and a bright uniform for the factory

My 20th birthday with my boyfriend at the time. I have but 3 pictures of us, and he has a stupid facial expression in every single one.

And this is me with some friends at the zoo earlier this summer. I am 22 now.

That last picture is just so weird because I know the other people in it too. As in, I did not meet them on the internet.

No, it's good. You see, that's how kids are meant to look at around 11 or 12. Not like these fully-grown early-onset-puberty freaks we have these days!

Hey being a filthy socialite is very very hard work! All those hair, nail and waxing appointments are ever so tiresome, not to mention the fact that i actually have to pretend to be interested in those dirty old men so they will buy me more hats, dresses and cocaine.....

PS. for those who don't know me I am joking, I swear I'm a uni-student who actually does have an awful part-time job in retail

sean · « **Reply #70 on:** 18 Aug 2008, 07:55 »

Okay so here are photos of me.

This is me on April 20th, 2005, at age 13. I know this because this is my current passport. I don't get a new one till 2010. Its kinda sad.

This is me on September 3rd, 2006, as the photo says, at age 15. I believe I was in line for Great Bear at Hershy Park. I have no idea why my face is so weird. Oh well.

This is me at the end of July, last year. That puts me at 16. Whoo.

This is me, circa half an hour ago. I have an awesome hat.

When I have time I will go through old photos to find older pictures.

You realise she's lying. I don't know why she'd want to. Self denial? Come on Normz.

ZJGent · « **Reply #72 on:** 18 Aug 2008, 19:30 »

I wish I could contribute to this thread, but I guess I tell everyone of how after age five or so, til I was fourteen, I was really not a very pretty looking thing at all. So when I hit fourteen, and puberty, and reaching my current state of "not great but hey it could be worse eh", I burnt (somewhat ritually) all the pictures of me before that point. It was mostly on account of I used to be awfully awfully awfully short. And fat. Those two are not a good combination, and it resulted in me approaching a state of being wider than tall, no lie. And then spotty as well - and sweaty. I was definitely not a cute-looking kid. Or a nice-looking youth. I was actually foul-looking. So, now, instead of seeing the pictures, you are going to have to imagine a nasty-ass-looking Drick waddling through Reading city when younger.

Anyhow, I only have that one baby picture and everyone's seen it a million times.

David_Dovey · « **Reply #73 on:** 18 Aug 2008, 21:43 »

Yeah I was pretty fat when I was about age 13-17 as well, but you're not gonna get to see those photos, but that's mainly because they're on film, and I'm not doing any fucking scanning for this thread.

Obligatory baby shot

This is me on my School Leavers trip, pretty much my 17th birthday. This photo was taken a few minutes after my eyebrows got shaven off.
My head was already like that, I had a mohawk for a few weeks and then shaved it off.

After Leavers I started growing my hair long. I guess I started drinking a lot as well?

New Year's Eve 2004, so I had just turned 18.

By my 19th birthday in 2005 I looked like this

and then I more or less looked the same for two years until I got a haircut in 2007

So I guess now I look like this

squawk · « **Reply #74 on:** 18 Aug 2008, 22:35 »

At three or four years old:

At sixteen years, six months and sixteen days old, and significantly less awesome:

Social Bacon · « **Reply #75 on:** 18 Aug 2008, 22:41 »

You have the triforce on your hand. So you must still be pretty awesome.

Eris · « **Reply #76 on:** 18 Aug 2008, 23:05 »

I swear I did this when it was an important postcount number. ah well.

Me when I was little. 3 or four, I think.

Year 10 formal, so... about 15? Look how wonky I was!

My first picture posted on the forums. I was... 18?

At some (well technically at many) points in time I got a haircut. I also got new glasses. (I am about 20 there)

Aaaaand, this is basically what I look like right now, at 21. I am tired.

It seems I stopped smiling in photos at some point. Probably because it is more fun to make funny faces or something.

I don't have any pictures from when I was a kid, but I can rock a 10 year time span, including three different hair colors:

I am the blonde on the right. I was around 19-20 at the time judging by my attire and nose ring.

Fast forward to 2004 or so. That is the only time I tried brown hair. It washed out after a week.

And here I am again on the right, this time with red hair. This was taken earlier this summer.

Barmymoo · « **Reply #84 on:** 14 Sep 2008, 09:19 »

I'm joining in here primarily so that this thread doesn't die, it's too awesome to die! ~~I don't have many pictures of me as a small child but here are some fairly recent ones.~~

My mum's partner was looking through some old photos and came across a bunch from when my family visited him when I was about four and his wife was still alive (they were our godparents, it's ironic really). The small child in pink dungarees is my brother. The house is where I live now. Weird.

When I was twelve and in Italy.

Fourteen and in Spain with school.

Sixteen, I believe, in the Czech Republic with orchestra.

Last month, 17, in Durham. My hair has got longer, my face a bit thinner and I no longer wear that hat although I still have it. It's terrifying how similar I look. I also have one from about three or four years later, and it's clearly me even though I'm ten years younger than I am now. If that makes sense. Perhaps I should dye my hair or cut it off or something?

Christophe · « **Reply #85 on:** 14 Sep 2008, 10:25 »

Once again, me with the showing people pictures of me.

Me and Ted Leo. He is wearing my hat. This was taken in January 2004, I was about... sixteen. Yes, sixteen.

Me at 17 with friends. I am the shortest human being ever.

Me with my ladyfriend outside of my dorm room at 18. Please notice horribly dyed hair.

Me right now. I need to eat breakfast.

Metope · « **Reply #89 on:** 16 Sep 2008, 12:51 »

While I was looking through old and new pictures that I could post in this thread, I realized that I haven't changed a bit over the last four years. From sixteen to (in a month) twenty: Nothing! Well, maybe my hair, but that has nothing to do with aging. Want proof?

This is me at 16 (with bonus 15 year old Jens/Anyways):

Here I had just turned 19:

...And finally: Now, almost 20:

...And I thought I had changed a lot, guess I was wrong.

Life of a Patatat (Get ready for me to look the same age through all of these. Unfortunately, I don't have my oldest picture anymore which I ironically look the oldest in.)

Large gap from 14-16 because I deleted my myspace and forgot to save my pictures

Embarrassing picture at 16, this is with my piercings out... 2005ish?

Embarrassing picture later, 2005/2006ish?

I traveled back in time to take this picture in 1980... or at least thats what the date on the Camera told photoshop..

2006... I believed I could fly.

Still 2006, I was an executioner. Who had bad taste in hats and baseball teams.

2007... I dont remember any of it. Let me give you an example... I took a vacation to Chicago, I forgot my clothes. That was after a night of already being out there.

2007... I went to the rural area, I drunkenly rowed boats and played card games.

2007... I am starting to remember. I wish I didn't.

Large gap in the time period from mid 2007 to now because I deleted my myspace and forgot to save my pictures.

I had a haircut somewhere in that time.

It got longer

It got cut'd
