I prefer to forget those days! Loads of bad memories, but maybe I should make my peace. I'm serious though, you won't believe it. I was 50-60 pounds lighter and NOT pretty.

Oh i don't know ... Can't see how you'd not be pretty Lee :)

At any rate it would definitely be amusing

TRUST me! Most people can't believe it's me. And it is kind of funny, but I don't know if I'm ready to go there just yet. :)

Ok i'll take your word for it.

I'm still picturing you as an adorable geeky teenager in the meanwhile though :D
 
<--- can't wait :).

I'm glad you re-sculpted your body, not for my sake ;), but for your own. Not many people in America are happy with their bodies. I'm pretty happy with mine, it's getting to where I want it, but it just needs a little time and a little more dancing ;) (and maybe a handstand pushup here and there).

Oh, and I almost forgot, you can't come in early January! I'll be back home for winter break, and I don't get out of school till the 23rd. So, I'm not allowing you to come in early Jan. :). I won't be back till late Jan, so you may come to NYC at the end of Jan. or before Christmas.

OMG! NO! It's definitely not true. I was a skinny, dorkosaurus. Thick glasses and all, with bad David Cassidy hair. MAJOR NERD. Trust me!

With respect, believe you !!! He he he he.
Come on, publish and be damned !!!

Watch your tone, young man or you'll get a spankin'! ;) I'm still trying to see if december's a possibility. BTW- how's your PB?

That's right. He's not adorable at all--just geeky. <ducks>

I just wanted to stop and share in your infamy. :D
 
Okay, a few things. Wee, Got my senior pictures back. Too bad they suck. :/ Pretty cool though to think I've taken my senior photos. GRADUATION IS LESS THAN 3 - 9 Week Periods away! :)

Secondly, Anyone know much about Temple University. It's one of the cheaper colleges that actually caught my eye up north in a big city. Philadephia seems like a nice town with lots of things to do and it's really close to New York, Washington DC, etc... So, Temple seems to be a good college to keep an eye on atm. But, I've read a few bad things about it on those sites where students rate their colleges. These can be mis-leading since you're way more likely to go write about something if it pisses you off than you are if you like it or it makes you happy. Any information, etc, is VERY appreciated here. :)

Thirdy, wee, got my SAT scores back. I finally broke the 1200 barrier with a 1230 on the main two section (Critical Reading & Math)

Critical Reading - 640
Math - 590

I'm really happy about the CR part, b/c I generally suck when it comes to language, reading, writing, etc. The math part dissapoints me though, I can do every freakin problem on that test that concerns math, but somehow always manage to choke when it actually comes time to take it.

La la LAAA *gets up and hops to the kitchen*

OMG, yesteday...I ate like a "normal" person. I have a bowl of cereal for breakfast, a Chicken Wrap for lunch, and then a bowl of cereal and something else for dinner.

Had it been me on any other day, I would have had...Half a box and a #1 combo from Chick-Fil-A for breakfast, zaxbys meal for lunch, and then half the fridge and the other half the box of cereal for dinner.

Other than very disappointing battery life (5.5 hours Apple? Try 3 on Energy Efficient mode if you plan on using the Powerbook the whole time) and bad airport reception, it's great. I love the huge screen, no dead pixels too :). I love the OS, of course. I love the keyboard illumination feature, it almost brings a tear to my eye to turn off the lights and see my computer's keyboard turn on.

I'm kind of annoyed that the f9 and f10 keys, which I'm used to using for expose, control the brightness of the keyboard. I have to press the function key to be able to use expose, which almost ruins it for me.

I love it though, I love the wireless connection at my school more than anything though :p, I got 4000 Kbps on Cnet's bandwidth meter :D. The dorm's connection is very weak and slow, so it's nice to be able to have this ultra fast connection in case I have a big download to complete.

The portability is incredibly nice, I can watch a movie in my bed in fullscreen, widescreen with my DVD player :). I only brought one DVD with me though, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon :eek:. I love my kung fu movies.

OK- I'll find you a pic. It's at home somewhere in storage. But I'm warning you, it's scary!

Your making yourself out as a white Urkel, is this accurate :D?

If so, I think that makes you hotter now. Transformation is sexy :).

You are going to shar pictures, of course.

Hey, I posted gawky awkward teen photos of me. Time for some people to join in.

Frozone, I'm sure that your senior pix can't be THAT bad. You are probably just your own worst critic. Well done with your SAT's. That'll be a load off, (your mind that is) Sorry, can't help regarding the University.

Trust you to bring a Powerbook conversation into the bedroom !!! You and my nephew should get together. He's got a freaking huge collection of martial arts dvd's. And a lot of clips copied from vcr to dvd of the old chinese masters and their styles. Hmmm, maybe I should see about some copying software and see what I can purloin. - That's one thing I'm good at, knocking off someone elses.

Oh sweetie- I was SO much worse than Urkel. I have to find something to post soon. You'll be scared.

BTW- isn't there a way to use your F keys without using the Function key? My iBook's F9 and F10 control Expose without it, so I can't imagine you can't get that on your PB.

You should be. I was really skinny with bad posture. It was terrible. believe it or not, it was sports- track and cross country that got me out of that funk.
