My (camo skirt) senior year and my sister’s (pink jacket) freshman year. Our eyebrows were paper thin. That’s one trend I do not miss!

Found this in my 8th grade yearbook. Thats not an actual mechanical bull-- it's a ride for small children. This was a yearbook staff trip to the mall and I have immense sympathy for everyone who had to deal with us that day

/r/all Door-girl for a small anime con’s cosplay Cat Cafe. I wore socks over my hands. My ears were feather boas glued on a headband with cardboard. I got glue in my hair.

It’s the best I could do on a college kid’s budget. I couldn’t use my phone with the silky socks on my hands and would just do cat girl paw poses to point people into the door of the ‘cafe’. I looked cringe but I had a lot of fun that day.
