This week’s theme for the Gallery is education.
And, quite frankly I can’t believe I am putting this photo on here … it’s one of me taken in the art room at the grammar school I went to. I think I was in the 5th year at the time, but not entirely sure. I ran in to my old art teacher the other day and sadly had to tell him that I had not become the next Picasso of the art world. Art class was fun, but I was pretty crap at it. No, it was my physics class where I really excelled. Bahahahahaha. Not. I actually failed both of those o’ levels and I’m not really sure why. I mean, I didn’t goof off or get distracted in either class. Much.
Anyway.
I’d just had all my hair lopped off in to that rather stylish curly bob. What was I thinking? Scary or wot? I’m sure it was a lot blonder than it looks in this photo. I mean, it could almost be mistaken for ginger, couldn’t it? Maybe it was strawberry blonde?
I loved that school jumper though … almost wish I still had it. Maybe not.
That’s my #1 fan’s arm in the background … she’d just come back from a holiday in Corfu and was showing off her tan even though it was fecking freezing!
Yeah … it’s really great to see that I have managed to maintain that same goofy laugh. FFS *eyes rolling*
OMFG — again, I can’t believe I am putting this photo on here.

Old photos are the best aren’t they – I had some wicked perms myself
Cool jumper.
Great photo you look so happy!
You were Molly Ringwald in Pretty in Pink!
That is so bizarre because I swear you look exactly like my best friend at school – even down to the jumper!
She had the same hair also. Clearly it’s a ‘look’ enjoyed by many back in the day!
You have to love a perm! I can smell the chemicals now!
Love the hair
@Kahanka
You’re rocking the perm better than I was at that age. I also had big glasses too *hangs head in shame*
Oh I had the same hair as you!
Love it!!!
Her Up North had THAT hairdo when she was a similar age. I like…
I am loving the laugh! You look like you are having a whale of a time…I still have that hair…always will have. Can’t fight the curl!
Hahaha, that hair is AWESOME! Said the girl who had similar hair for a few years in middle school…
I have naturally curly hair so didn’t need a perm, but this haircut is very familiar!! ;o)
Niiice…at least you could laugh about it
