Young Blood

Last night I was going through boxes that I have not seen in 5+ years, and came across so many photos and love letters etc from my past. I love reading that stuff. One thing that I came across was a book that my girlfriends and I would write in when we were in year 7, and pass it around to the next girl, rather than sending letters. The things we wrote about cracked me up so bad that I nearly wet my pants. I cant believe what we were saying, and our lingo at the time was TERRIBLE. Makes me shudder.

Here are some photos that I thought I would share with you.

Mum and I

I'm not sure how old I was at the time, but check out the size of my head.

Mum being a Stone Cold Fox.

Stone Cold Fox. That’s a funny expression. I’ve never used it before so I actually had to look up Urban Dictionary to make sure that it meant what I thought it meant. Phew.

See, I was book smart back in the day. What happened?

Some form of church outing. I'm guessing it was my first communion or confirmation or whatever it is called.



and the Money Shot.

Look who had pink hair.

This photo was taken at my Dads house in Dingley, and I was on mIRC. Who else had mIRC? I was an internet junkie. Could stay on it day in, day out.

I had my hair pink in between the Grade 6 and Year 7 holidays and then when it came time to go to school, there had been a disagreement between my parents as I was enrolled in two schools (John Paul College and Toorak College) and I ended up missing the first 1 or 2 weeks of school. I ended up at John Paul as that’s where my friends went, and I still remember spending 3 hours in a hair salon and Geefa forking out $350 to strip the colour from my hair.

I changed from John Paul to Toorak in year 9 and I am really glad that I did.
