My everest of cool from high school.

At school i wasn't the coolest person, it wasn't even the 'coolest' era of my life. But recently i was reminded of the moment during high school that i was at my most rockin'. Graduation, i had very recently had my best friends mother give me a Suzie Quatro hair cut, i sewed up an old hot pink lacey negligee and found some 90's platform boots in an op shop. Now im VERY glad i dont have pictures of my Courtney Love attempt but the idea makes me very happy indeed. But im sad that it took me until i was 18 to start trying to experiment and 'find' myself.

I think we all look at our current selves and think "yes, this is as cool as i'll ever get" and yes right now i do believe that. Ive been through every trend/fad/phase you could think of in hopes to find myself and it's funny how i've come a full circle to a more improved version of one of my earlier 'trials'. Oh then add a splash of my mother's and father's personalities and interests, which leads me to being very disappointed that i felt the need to rebel away from their choice in music and hobbies. I wish i stopped and listened to dad's music during my early teens and didn't roll my eyes at mum's sewing boxes of needle work and cupboards of second hand trinkets.

lets finish off with a quick walk through of my 'evolution' starting at the end of high school yes?
