LOL @ me starting this entry before midnight so I can say...

IT'S ONE MONTH TILL MY 21st BIRTHDAY :3

LOLOLOLOLOL XD It's also one month until Draco turn... *counts*... 28!! :D Not that we have the same birthday or anything... >.> and not that I mention it AT ALL, LIKE, EVER. >.> XDDDDD BUT. It has relevance to the post (not Draco having the same birthday as me, MY birthday is the relevant thing), because...

I have DONE my half of the sorting tally, like, a couple of days ago, so that's out of the way for me once the other half is done by the lovely Jess, and to celebrate, I did a meme :D And in this meme, you have to draw yourself from when you were a teenager! :D AND I WAS A TEENAGER. And the age I turned in year 10 was 15 *is a youngin*, and it was just amusing to me that I did this while thinking about turning 21!!

So, no real relevance. Scrap that. I'm making shit up again.

ANYWAY. Here's the art XD


I still can't really draw myself. It's so frustrating. LOL. XD ANYWAY.

I was the feaking dorkiest kid from about year 5-8, but by year 10, I was secure in myself as a person, and I liked who I was (I don't think I really did before that). ANYWAY. This is me at age 15 (I've been a year younger than most of my grade forever ^^; LOL).

And... I really haven't changed much, apart from getting wider and sillier. XDDDD The wider thing may have to do with the fact that I don't play school sport anymore, or do cross-country :( LOL. But I still enjoy watching it, haha XDDDD I played soccer for two years at high school and loved it so much. I was also and Aussie Sports Leader where we took Primary School kids for sport once a week after school (I got go meet the Hawks footie club! Yay! :D They signed the back of my jumper XD).

This was the height of my music as well. That year I won "Most Promising Under 16" for piano at the Eisteddfod XD I played 1st clarinet in the school concert band, and played baritone and tenor saxophone in the stage band, depending on which was needed more in the piece, LOL. This was the year after FIVE split, which I was devastated about, obviously, but I still was obsessed. Still am, obviously XDDDDDD

I had also been in love with Ewan McGregor for liiiiiike... five years already ^^; Ritchie waaaaaas... four years and Tom was a newish addition to the love - about a year, I think? ;) XD LOLOL. Wow, this was like six years ago, guys, how pathetic is that?! XDDDDD

I was also a Student Leader (Peer Support) and vice-captain of my house (Blythe - yellow, ironically. I was also in yellow in Primary School (Oakleigh)). :D

I ended up winning the Art prize at the end of the year, and was one A- off getting the English prize too... CURSE YOU, EDWARD. LMFAO XDDDD I was such a swot. I loved all my subjects XDDDDD

Oh, and hey, just in case you guys didn't get this, that is my school uniform... >.> LOL. ^^; It's not like I wore that for fashion or anything XD

ANYWAY. I really enjoyed year 10. The only year that's beaten it since was year 12. That was AWESOME. :D This was fun. I wanna see you guys do it too :D

ALSO. Random totally love to my parents tonight. Because I was going through old photos of me and them when I was a baby to find stuff from high school, and MAN, I have great parents. Seriously. I love them SO EFFING MUCH. <3 GAH. They should win awards or something. Srsly.

It reminded me that one day at the dinner table a couple of months ago, we had people around for my parent's 35th wedding anniversary, and one of my mum's friends, who she never sees, was staring at me, and turned to my mum and said, "she even has the same hand gestures as [my dad]" and mum nodded and went, "I know." (in an "I know, it's scary, right?" way) and I looked down at my hands, and at my dad's, and we were both doing this thing with our fingernails on the inside of our palms where you start at the base of your palm with your opposite finger nails, and trail them up to the tips of your fingers. HOW COOL IS IT, THAT I PICKED THAT UP SUBCONSCIOUSLY OVER ALMOST 21 YEARS AND NEVER KNEW?!?! XDDDDD

SO WEIRD. I was thinking about that while drawing this, and thinking about growing up and stuff, and MAN. 21 is like, a drip in time. And then I started thinking about that quote from Ten where he says, "Some people live more in twenty years than others do in eighty. It's not the time that matters, it's the person.". DUDE. How right is that?! I have so much more to do with my life, but I've DONE SO MUCH AS WELL. Argh. BIG RANDOM DEEP THOUGHTS APPROACHING 21, PEOPLE. LMFAO XDDDD

*hugs* Sorry for rambling XD

DO THE MEME.

Peace,
