So apparently I’ve been instagramming like crazy this past month. I’ve had lots of free time to do stuff and document it. Very image (and video) heavy post!
I showed a few old photos a couple of months ago, which reminded me of this other box of photos I had been looking for, and I finally found it. This is me at 12 in 1996.
Later the same year.

Riding a ferris wheel, -96.
On my 13th birthday, -96.
Posing with blue lipstick and “hair mascara” at 13, probably -96 as well.

My beautiful new earrings.
My amazing sneakers that I unfortunately almost never wear.
A vampire with braces. Probably Halloween 1997.
