yesterday.

i looked like a high school version of myself.
glasses.
natural hair.
hardly any makeup.
black v-neck.
blue jacket.
jeans.
in honor of my flashback,
i documented the event and edited it hi-skewl style.
you know,
cranking up the highlight levels until your face is white 
and the background practically disappears.
i was also a big fan of the
saturation movement of 07.
what a fool i was.
my face is either white or orange
in all my pictures from 2005-2007.
and my gum is visible in nearly 97% of all shots.


confession:
i miss myspace.
those were the days when 
crappy photoshop was not only accepted,
but worshiped.
r.i.p white/orange face days, r.i.p.

it is sad how all of our highschool photos (our being a broad term) are ruined by crappy editing and the lack of foresight when I didn't save original files. natch.

true story: i'd give my left arm to get all of my myspace pictures back. i think it would be a valuable lesson for my kids to not do the sweeping side bang. EVER.

Haha this is awesome! Man, myspace days seem so long ago but yet they really weren't. I wish I still had my myspace so I could go back and see what pictures I had on there haha.

This is a true story, I NEVER HAD A MYSPACE.

I think if you did you're destined to become a porn star. good luck with that.
