Description -- A Memo Created By: : I Saw While Browsing DA Last Night. So I Decided To Draw One...I Loved 16 Year Old Me...So...Weird.

-- It's Funny, As I Looked Through All Of The Other Ones, I Realized My Teens Werent As Dramatic Or Anything...Sure I Got Crap About How I Looked But I Wasnt As Goth, Emo Or Depressed As Ithers, Sure i Had Moments But Other Than That I Was As Loud, Unorganized, Immature, And Cocky As I Am Now.

-- 16 Year Old Me Was Great, Heres Some Highlights:

- My Awesome Army Jacket, I Had Various Band Patches, Weird Saying Patches, Witty Quote Pins, All Over It, I Wrote All Over The Jacket, And Lined It With Safety Pins...I Lost It Years Ago Though, Dammit.

-- I ALWAYS Wore My Bandanna, I Had One In 5 Different Colors, I Started Wearing them After My Dad Gave Me One He Got From A Motorcycle Rally Run.

-- I Could NOT Grow A Mustace To Save My Life, So I Grew A Beard, It Varied To A Regular Beard To A HUGE Amish Beard.

-- Under I Had A Sweet Long Sleeved Shirt Over Misc Band Shirts, The Long Sleeved Shirt Was My Favorite And After A Long Time It Would Tear Up So I Kept It Together With MORE Saftey Pins, And I Would Cut Up A Pair Of Black Socks And Wear Them As Makeshift Long Gloves, And THEN Wear My Spikes...

-- Nothing But Black Jeans, I Decorated Them With Different Kinds Of Stuff, Patterns I Cut From Other Old Shirts, My Old Lepard Slippers, Or I Just Used Red Duct Tape, Good Times.

-- My Wallet Chain Was A HUGE Heavy Chain Link I Found On The Road, So I Outfitted it To Be A Wallet Chain, With Other Chains Surrounding It...People Used To ask If It Was Real Then Be Surprised When They Lifted It.

-- Not Shown Is My Boots, I LOVED MY Boots, They're The Same Kind Gary Wears.

-- Wore Nail Polish, Black And Red, Also Sometimes Blue, Green And Orange, If I Was Gonna Dress Weird Then I Figured I Might As Well Go All In...Also Had Peircings On Each Ear.


-- Now My Current, Sexy 24 Year Old Self:

-- My Favorite Hat Ever In Existence, I Found It At Spencers, And Bought It Cause Plaid Hats Rule!.

-- I Gave Up Trying To Grow A mustache, So I Just Grew A Beard, Which Apperntly A Lincoln Beard...I Didnt Mind, Until Hueros Dad Started Calling Me BABE-RAHAM LINCOLN....

-- I Still Wear Alot Of Black Shirts, And Band Shirts, But I Even It Out With Some Red And Green And Blue...

-- I Also Kept The Bracelets And Spikes And Stuff, My arms Feel Naked Without It...I Also Started Drawing X's On My Hands Too, Straight Edge, Y'know...I Started To Do it Just To Piss Off A Friend In My Art Class, But Now i Like It.

-- I Wear More Blue Jeans Now, But Thats Cause Im Too Poor To Afford Anything Else But The Walmart Jeans, I Also Still Have A Wallet Chain But Not The Huge One, I Got Rid Of It Due To Cops And My College Wouldnt Allow It.

-- I Started Wearing Regular Shoes Too!. Like A Year Ago, Now Its DC Shoes!, The Ones i Own Have This Awesome Flannel Patterns.

-- I Challenge You ALL To Do This!.

Your Constantly Changing, If Not In Appearance Than In Personality, Once You Get Drawing You Start Thinking About It And It All Comes Back Too You, Like If You Drink A Sllushy To Fast, As In Brainfreeze!
