…including the one I was looking for of my locker. Unfortunately, you really can’t make out the “Why am I such a sex symbol?” piece of paper. (It is partially overlapping the awesome “House of Breakfast Pleasure” poster, directly to the left of the “WTSC 91.1 FM” part.)
Here’s an awesome picture from the England trip, summer of ‘97. Stonehenge rocks. (Ha! Pun!) Click the picture for a bigger version.
Furthermore, here is a sequence of 3 pictures taken a few days after I got my hair chopped off (and chopped it remains, to this day). I was 17.
- The basic “sit there and smile” pose
- The faux candid, thinking I’m at a professional photo shoot pose
- The attempt at a sort of “angsty punk girl” look
This will sound conceited and self-absorbed, but since apparently the consensus among some is that I am conceited and self-absorbed, I might as well go ahead and say it! Looking through these pictures, I realized I was a lot better looking in high school than I gave myself credit for, and I should’ve lightened up and not been so self-conscious. But, high school is all about self-consciousness, so… Anyway, I’ll do a post some other time about how some of the people in high school really warped my self-perception or whatever.
I found a lot more than just these, but I only had the patience to scan and subject you to a few.
However, I didn’t find the pictures from Niki’s 16th birthday that I was looking for. Damn. So she might get off scott free this year.

So you were almost goth, eh? Just kidding.
Gah, those last 3 pictures are freakin’ hot. But then you know I loved your hair like that. I think those were some of the first I ever saw of you, back when we were both on AOL(!).
‘Cause my hair looks like SHIT now, right? Is that it?? ;)
Yeah, you were BobHale007 and I was… well, what was I? I didn’t use AOL for email then - I had already migrated to the “real” internet, and I think my email address was aluis@csra.net (a local ISP that is no more, of course). But then freshman year I was Driver8NYU on AIM, I do remember that.
I also found the picture that was the first one you ever saw of me, on my web site circa June 1998. That reminds me, I need to get all my backups off Rockhopper and put up links to my old web pages… good stuff… <blink> tag and all…
I wonder if the the good old blink tag is banned from your comments section.
Boo!
Too bad you don’t have a picture of THE Locker…
