Back In The Day

When I was younger I would change my clothing up to 4 times a day. Whether it was raiding my mothers closet for dresses and high heels, or in her drawers for her bikinis and lingerie. I was constantly changing my attire. My friends and me would make videotapes of us in different clothes. I loved to show off and model clothing, so when I was older my mother put me in modeling. I really liked modeling and enjoyed the constant attention. I was your typical girly girl. This particular picture reminds me of when I was 4 years old. I was an angel for Halloween. I have a picture that is really similar to this one. I was at the Family Leisure center, and was participating in the activities that were held there every Halloween. I loved dressing up for Halloween it was one of my favorite Holidays. So naturally I would go all out with makeup and hair. My mom said I really did look like an angel because when I was younger I had curly blonde hair. Not only did I dress up for Halloween, everyday I would play dress up with friends. I still own my angel costume and remember trick or treating in it like it was yesterday. It was chilly night and I had gone with my best friend, she dressed up as a peppershaker. As you can imagine the imagination of a 4-year is very wide and as soon as I was in that costume the role of an angel immediately took me over. I would pretend to fly and sore, I didn't care what anybody thought of me or how silly I looked. When you're younger nobody's opinion of you bothers you. I wish those days were still here. Back in the day.
