where were you a year ago?

How much has changed for you over the past year?
 
A year ago. . . Wow. I really don't know.

My hair was much longer, about halfway down my back. Now its shoulder-length.

I was going to be in my cousin's wedding that was scheduled for this June. It's cancelled.

Last year I had heard of DISboards, but didn't really care for it. Well, now, let's just say addict won't cover this statement.
 
I was.
Well, it was the day before my birthday, it would have been a saturday. I was going to get myself a birthday present with my friend. I got a book.

All I know was I was dependent on her, I thought she was the best person around, but she was actually being horrible to me. I was a major suck up. The 3 weeks in Florida, helped me find myself and I decided to fly solo when I came home. We're friends again, but I don't let her push me around, and she's a better person now too.
 

A year ago, wow that seems so long ago looking back. But it's really not. Anyways from a year I have changed a lot. Like in Looks everyday i would wear my hair up in a ponytail. This year I'm wearing it down and curly like it naturally is. And also last year my clothes were always big on me, cause i claimed to not like tight fitting clothes, but this year my clothes fit me better. But this year I think i've made more changes in friends, and more emotional changes.
 
i was a straight a nerd that if i got a B i had tears in my eyes and was pretty much in every club.. now i'm **blushes** only in 1 and now i have wayy more friends than last year... i had 1 friend 1 that's it... she's still my friend we can just hang out a lot more so we r bff but i have like 20 friends now... i was really sad last year....

didn't do DisBoards a lot either... :( wow i was missing out on a ton, wasn't i????
 
A year ago I was a junior in high school. Oh, what I would give to never be a junior in high school again. :rolleyes: And I was in the second semester. That means I had just completed a course called "Hell"...erm, "Chemistry". I was also getting ready for prom! Ah prom...the infamous dance that makes you pay big dollers for a dress and ticket only to tell you at the door that your life sucks if you don't have a date. Yes, I remember getting ready for it...heck, I was on the prom committee at this time too. Had fun, they didn't listen to my ideas.

A year ago I won the program of studies cover design contest. They liked my drawing and published it on over 400 booklets that the entire student and faculty body received. Good times. I also won the junior class 2nd place on the Winter Carnaval poster contest. The seniors won. They win everything during winter carnaval because their seniors lol. And guess what, this year...I am a senior, but shhh! :rolleyes:

A year ago, I was not where I am today.
 
Haha, I have changed so much this past year. A year ago:
I was into Fall Out Boy, Panic!At The Disco, From First To Last, The Used, My Chemical Romance, Kill Hannah and stuff like that.
I hardly ever wore make up.
I was blonde.

(This is from 1/15/06)
I had a boyfriend.
I had awful grades. (I still do)
I was a lot more self-concious.
I gossiped a lot more.
My friends were mostly kids from my middle school cos I was a freshman. I've drifted from a lot of them this year, I wish I hadn't.
 
This time last year...
I ...
had a boyfriend (but we were just starting out; we're a lot closer now)
had decent grades (they're better now)
was close to my friends (now we're so distant...)
didn't have my driving permit (I now have my license and a car!)
Hey, can't complain!
 
I was enjoying school.
I'm not, completely the same..
But not very different at all.​
 
This time last year was just meeting the amazing people that I now call my life. Some of them I hadn't met. Some of them I wasn't close to AT ALL. Now they're my life and I don't know how I ever lived without them. I've become closer to God. Drifted away from my "old" school friends. Got "new" school fri ends. Started liking boys.

But alot of things are the same:
I still love music
Still love theatre
Still love life
Still love band
Still love choir
Still love DIS

Pretty much the same, only junior year "Hell" for me was "Physics" x___X

I just read my livejournal from this time last year - I had just turned 17, just got my 2nd holes in my ears, hating homework, procrastinating big projects, and had Christina Agulera songs stuck in my head- not much has changed there!

Only, a lot has. I'm a lot more confident in my performing abilites, enough so to say that I am ready to spend the next 4 years of my life completely emmersed in studying musical theater and the rest of my life living in a cardboard box as a result. :rolleyes1

Also, I just turned 18 the other day.. so I can officially vote, buy lottery tickets, and enter Disney trip contests under my own name instead of using my mom's! :)

Still no boyfriend though. :rolleyes:
 
One year ago....

I hadn't discovered what would turn out to be a big place in my life, the Teen Board....
I was also lying about several things, and I was having to go through a rough spot.

So...I'm much happier now. :)
 
Man, I am SO different from the person I was a year ago. The biggest worry on my mind was SAT's and getting a prom date, which would happen soon later. I was also really nervous about getting into college. That's changed dramatically since last year. Now I'm not nervous because I've gotten into all the places I wanted to. Now I'm really excited for college. I also view relationships in a very different light.
 
A year ago I cared a lot more what people thought of me.
My hair was blonde
I am way closer to my friends now. We hang all the time.
I was alot closer to my bf.
Some of my best friends now I barely knew last year.
I am way better at volleyball
I was a cheerleader
I was so self concious.
I wore a gray hoodie almost everyday. I chucked it in the trash.
My sarcasm level wasn't as high
I didn't have a car
I though ipod's were so techno and didn't know how to work them at all
Most of my family members were in the hospital.
It was a hard time for my family.

That's all I can remeber now...
 
wow... a year ago?

I was a senior in high school
I hadn't met some of the greatest people in the world yet. (my college friends).
I had known I was going to Gettysburg already...
I was boyfriend-less. (I still am... and it sucks.)
I didn't have a car. (I had totaled my car december of 2005 and still hadn't gotten my new car yet.)
I hadn't graduated high school yet.

I LOVE where I am this year, and wouldn't go back to last year for a million dollars. :)
 
one year ago from today
My now father was on a plane from Seattle
I had a different last name
I was chasing a guy who only hurt me.
I wrote poetry
I was still in shock from hurting myself a few months earlier.
I had a few friends.
I was seriously introverted.


Today:
my dad is home.
my last name is perfect.
I have an amazing boyfriend, but I don't regret the time I wasted on the other guy. it made my standards higher.
I don't have to write anymore.
I don't hurt myself.
I have a million friends.
I'm not an introvert.

This past one was a good year.
I was adopted. I changed my last name. mom got engaged. I met mike. I went to disneyworld. I laughed too much. I developed a great taste in music. I read all those books I'd been meaning to read. I spent half the summer away from home.

The reason I made this thread is that the 24th is the day I was adopted by ken. Looking back, so much has changed since then. Its hard to think about really. It feels like three or four years, but so much has happened in one.

The 24th is also my five month anniversary with mike. Its going to be a good day.

Good for you Shelby...
 
Aww Shelby your life has done a total 360 in a year.

My life, hmm a year ago was good but not good.
My family was mourning the loss of my mom's best friend
Just to soo find my aunt dead a few days after today.
But I had a solid group of freinds, We were planning turnabout.

This year, no deaths.
No turnabout prolly, I don't wanna go + my friends make me so mad lately.
Boys still give me headaches.
Bears are going to the superbowl!!
I've gotten really close with all my family. (especially my cousins)

I guess I don't know which was better. This year or last.
