Hi Colleen! I was somewhat the same in high school. I was into a lot of different things, but not into one thing enough to say "that's me".

I had a bad year the first year because I got teased *a lot* for blushing *badly* & I guess that formed my picture of myself.

It wasn't until I looked back years later at my yr7 photo that I realised the boys probably thought that girl was kind of pretty and the bitchy girls just *might* have been jealous.
Imagine! :D

Those are great photos and I agree with everything...

Those are great photos and I agree with everything said before. I have just been looking through my old photos and OMG I looked a clip in some of them. (I have lots of bad hair days). But it's me, whatever I look like.

It's how you feel now that matters, and you should love yourself more because you're a lovely person.

I love the pictures. I wonder how many of us felt the same way. In 20years, we'll look back at photos of us now and say how young we were.

You were and still are gorgeous! I had low self esteem also, sometimes I think just getting older and maturing helps the self confidence. I know lately mine has been being involved in church, and having others to talk to and lean on. It gives you that support you need to stand tall.

From just lookin' at the photos - you certainly don't look like you'd fit the dork crowd, at all.

I am going to guess you're a tad younger than I am. =)

Seriously. NO. You don't look the dork at all! A...

Seriously. NO. You don't look the dork at all! And it's nice to finally see another blogger from the land of cheese! I think that now makes like 5 of us! Woot. :)

You have always been a beautiful woman. Embrace the inner dork! :D

You were (are) gorgeous! I gotta take this week off for bad behavior but I'll be back next week!

Thanks for the meme tag...I'll do it next week...cause I'm grounded and all....

As you can see I'm not doing so well with following my own restrictions!

When I went to my 10-year high school reunion (five years ago now), I learned that even the popular kids (I, too, was a dork) felt like outcasts a lot of the time.

Go figure.

I plan on linking in, but I'm still too tired to write mine at the moment. In may be a late Flashback Friday. Maybe I'll call mine Flashback Saturday this week? But my Photo Hunt (Saturday) photo is all ready to go. Maybe I should post it now? Oh, nevermind. ;)

Damn Colleen! You're smokin' hot!

I have found that I am often unhappy with my "now," but after some time passes, I will look back on pictures of that "now" and think "That wasn't so bad.." I guess time has a way of putting things in a different perspective. Like with my wedding pictures from my Flashback Friday: I remember being so ill at ease with myself back then. However, I look at them now and think, "There wasn't anything wrong with me except my attitude about ME."

Have a peaceful weekend, you deserve it :)

Wow to be tall and thin. Isn't it crazy how we percieve ourselves sometimes. I am not sure if you scrapbook but you remind me of Ally Edwards. She is very popular in the scrapboook world and is adorable!!!!
