Even though I am in this photo looking a hot mess, that is not what I want you to focus on. Look behind my “Mom bursts into the room with a camera the morning after prom and I’m still sleeping” face and focus on the room, especially the walls. Don’t you love them? Isn’t that classy? Because in high school and mostly through college, I thought the whole concept of decorating meant you take as many pictures of hot boys and plaster them like wallpaper all over your walls. Or posters of the music you listen to – this was my “gangsta rap” stage – THUG LIFE BITCHES! This picture does not show that directly above me, on the peaked ceiling, there is another Tupac poster, a Biggie poster and a Diddy “No Way Out” album cover poster. I just pretty much assumed that every spare inch of wall space should be covered in something – pictures, glow in the dark stars, sparkly disco balls.
If you look closely, you can see the original Polaroid of this photo hanging on the wall.
Also, that is a waterbed I am sleeping on. That’s how awesome I was! (Can’t you tell by the bangs?)

I SPY LJS BOOKS! š
The whole series! Still have them too. š
The left side is full of my Christopher Pike books – also still have them.
Such a dork!
I’m digging your stereo. I’m pretty sure I had one just like it.
Thanks! I begged for it because it had two tape decks and a record button. So I could dub tapes and record mixes from the radio. š
