haha...this is our single reaction of my classmates from highschool when we saw how we look like back then...
okay, we are having our reunion by the end of this month, but its just too bad that i was not able to be there coz it don't fits on my sched...its really sad coz i know that i will be missing a lot of fun there...
since they plan about this reunion, they also started uploading our high school pictures in our page in facebook...and it really drives us crazy seeing ourselves! haha we can't believe how we look like that time, we are very young and thin and really innocent looking! haha and oh my the fashion statements! hahaha
all of us exchanging comments on facebook are just laughing and teasing each other reminiscing those days...really funny!
how about you? do you have the same reaction whenever you saw your old photos? hehe
can't believe that that's how you look like back then? or you feel that you still look the same? before i use to think that nothing changes on me and i still look the same...but upon seeing my highschool pictures again...ahem!
good day!

but back to topic, well its fun looking in our highschool pictures there and teasing each other with how we looks like before and how we dressed! hahaha and what we just say is "nakakahiya"!(embarrassing)

hello lordcaocao!
good to see you here!
well, even if you don't have much photos back then, a one or two pictures will be enough to bring back some memories of the past! hehe
me, i also don't have much with me, that's why i am surprised to see that my classmates do have a copy of those pictures...hehe some are events that i actually forget already, but just come back to me after seeing those pictures! huh! really funny!
i guess that's the most common changes that we get...being bigger & bigger than we used to be...maybe we can try uploading our pictures here comparing ourselves from then to present! hahaha
thanks!

yeah i think so! coz when we are in our school days, we are always a busy body with lots of activities... unlike when we are already working...hehe less physical activities...and of course with married men, there's already someone who took care of them...

LOL, Yes, and most of my friend is actually getting fatter and fatter too. Especially after they got a job. Even most of my college friend are fatter now than they are in the college. I don't know, maybe because most of us have a job that require us to sit all day in front of a computer with out make us move around much. Thanks.

I pretty much look the same as I did in high school, just heavier.
My 10 year high school reunion was held recently. I didn't go. I just really don't care to see the people I graduated with. Not too many others did either. Out of about 150 people in my class, about 25 showed up to the reunion. Needless to say, our class wasn't very close.

i am definitely prettier now than before, lol...! yeah i do have same experience. looking back at out old photo makes us giggle. quite different though, but it was fun, it was fun...
Can you say that you are better now, than before? reunions and event of the past are the best way to look ourselves and note the difference of what we have done so far. it is a good tool for self evaluation. do you do that?

Well, when I have looked at my highschool pictures I have noticed that my face hasn't changed, but everything else has.
It's amazing how much do our styles change through the years. Our likings change a lot, so we end up looking like a completely different person!

i think that's really the case, that's why we also think that we really have change but in fact its just the fashion sense and styles...

I'm aware that my appearance has changed a lot, and when I see high school pictures my first reaction is always "why did I have those horrible eyebrows?".
The funny thing is that I have kept exactly the same face since I was 13 years old, and when my friends see my old pictures they always get super surprised at the fact that I have that same face while their faces have changed a lot.
Apart from that, we should be proud of every moment of our lifes, even if we had ugly eyebrows or anything else :)

but yeah, whatever it is, it has been part of our lives and we must be proud with who we are & how we look back then...for sure we all think that we are still good looking then & now...

Yup, although I'm not that old, just a 3rd year college student, when we see our pictures, especially when we were just 1st year highschools, we laugh at each other, and teased even ourselves. It's very nice to see those pictures especially if you can see the difference of it from now. Reminiscing the happy moments and being shocked of what we are now, just like my girlfriend, we've known each other since 2nd year highschool and we didn't expect that we'll end up having a relationship (started just this April). Well, hope to see that good old pictures after 10 years

maybe you won't believe me, when i was 17, people (outside the school) thought that i was 35. but now after 10 years later, people said that i just look like a 15 year-old boy. 
the main reason is because of my hair. i used to keep long hair like yutaka takenouchi but when i start working (5 years ago) i cut my hair short.
other than that, i don't look much different now compared to 10 years ago or even 20 years ago.

same with me, coz when i was younger they say that i look older than my age coz i am taller than the average here in our place...but now, they say that i also don't look my age! hehe
see, our haior can do a lot of difference in our looks! its really our crowning glory! but i think yutaka looks good...hehe and i guess most young guys prefer to have long hair during their younger years...coz they think its cool?

yeah, because he looks cool with long hair & since i have the same head shape with him, so i kept the same hairstyle like him. actually i wanted to look mature more than to look cool at that time.
tell you something, my friends used to call me yutaka during that period of time. but now they called me the curious case of benjamin button.

Hi, Cykera!
Haha, yeah! I got the same reaction, too. Sometimes, when I looked at the school photos, I wonder why I did not think of cutting or styling my hair like this or that, which could actually make me looked prettier!
If you think that nothing changed on you, I think I was the other way round. I thought I changed, but I was so amazed when I went to one of the clubs out of town a few years ago when I was 29, one of the band boys was actually my junior in elementary school when I was 12 and he was just 8!
Gee, the moment he told me that I was from that school, I couldn't believe he still remembers me because that was ages ago! So, I couldn't wait to tell my best friend about it. She was from the same school, and she said he might have a crush on me when he was a kid!
That was kind of funny theory. I still think I don't look the same, though.

hello corrycrystal!
woooh! i also think that he got a crush on you back then!
haha...we don't do this & that that time, because we actually feel that we really good that time! haha...well at least with me, with regards to hair, nothing much changed, except that my hair then is more curly than now...hehe only because i was able to have some treatments now and can take care of ourselves more now...
i have this thought of not changing much coz i also encounter some of my classmates from grade school, well actually some are not even my classmates and they still recognize me... but i don't recognize them...haha and so it surprised me...
there's one social site that i join and someone is telling things on me there, and i said hey who are you? i don't know you...nah! im surprised when he said that he's my classmate in grade 2- 4 hahaha

hi ckyera^^;;
most of my lost friends, classmates, schoolmates who see me in person or in facebook/friendster would say i got so thin. they won't believe it because i was chubby before. it's really funny to get back on those old pics and oh my...no!no!no! hahaha! i hope they will never get uploaded. in highchool, i had my hair cut into a JQ style (a boy's hairstyle because i began become boyish) and in college i had my hair almost shaved off about just an inch remaining..
i don't like to remember how i had done in my life. never would want to show them to my hubby either
but reminiscing them with friends is fun and i will never forget those great memories

Facebook is a very good social site that connects a lot of old friends. My highschool and grade school friends uploaded our class pictures too and we were all laughing at ourselves on how we used to look then. But it can be used as evidence to show that we were not this fat when we were young! People think that because we are chubby now, we have always been chubby. And when I point this out to my friends, they tell me that I was never thin. Well, there's the proof. In our old school pictures.
