I was tall and skinny with greasy dirty blonde hair, acne, and braces. Man, adolescence was tough! Looking back though, it made me develop other parts of myself and my personality because I didn't have looks to rely on. I wasn't "pretty" but man was I funny and very athletic! I always felt like the outsider looking in and I can see now how this helped me develop critical thinking skills. Eventually, the braces came off, my skin cleared up (sort of), and I learned how to make myself more attractive. There's still a part of me though, who will always be that shy awkward teenage girl. We are all different and need to appreciate each other for what we are. You, Anna, are beautiful through and through. ;)Sharon M.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7334921515741798160.post-446494926762950252012-05-07T14:27:35.945-07:002012-05-07T14:27:35.945-07:00Was your sister's hair for real?

Yeah, she's Farrrah. That was your awkward year... most of us, maybe not L, but most of us had them :) My perm was so much worse than yours. SO much worse. And then as it grew out, each subsequent hair cut was EVEN worse. I had a science class with a girl named Julie who was beautiful and had perfect,thick, wavy hair down her back, and I had to sit behind her and I can STILL feel the pangs of actual piercing pain in my heart when I'd have to look at the stupid back of her gorgeous hair. I wanted to sink into the floor and disappear and was sure everyone was thinking how awful I looked sitting near her.<br /><br />You know what photo of you is burned in my brain forever? You posted it a couple years ago, I think, but it's of you and Tim at a party you threw in or just out of college. I see that photo and think, my GOSH, she's a freaking perfect - how do people that gorgeous even exist in real life!? <br /><br />It's nice for me to know that the Anna of College and the Anna of Now wasn't ALWAYS a beauty queen, she had curly hair and braces ;) HA. My self esteem is better now.
