The Biggest Dork Ever

Sharing is caring!

I am loving reading everyone’s descriptions of the person they were in middle school.  
Seems like a lot of you felt awkward (umm….yes.) 

Straight from my yearbook:  Classic awkward dancing of the middle schooler (that’s not me, by the way.)

Some of you said you were tall, but I bet that really you were just normal and everyone else was short!  A lot of you admitted to being geeky, glasses & braces, quiet, shy, etc.  And some of you said
‘I NEVER wanna go back!’  
Jr. High was actually a fun couple of years for me.  But let me tell you right now…I was THE. BIGGEST. DORK. EVER.  And since you were honest with me, I want to reward you with these hilarious pictures:  
6th Grade…I think I wore that shirt like every day.  Frizzed out perm, don’t know how to do my hair.  HUGE glasses!
8th Grade:  Life got a little better looking when I got contacts.  Except for the Carol Brady hairdo.  Note the overalls!  My friend and I were talking about overalls and she was sad to admit she wore them in college…
9th Grade:  This must have been right before I got braces which I had for two years. 

The reason it was fun was because I was a dork (as I still kind of am) but I didn’t care.  I had a little group of friends and we did things like this:
This was for our superhero movie:  I am on the lower right side…’Madam Moonboots.’  This was the most awesome getup ever.  I wish the picture would have scanned in color…hot pink shirt with some costume leotard, black and pink biker shorts, pink moonboots, and that’s a garter on my leg??

So yes.  Jr. High/Middle school was awkward and pretty hideous.  But it was kind of awesome at the same time.  And I think we can all agree on one thing…
We’re glad it’s over.

    Love this!!!
    And yes i am definitely glad my middle school years are over, but I definitely learned so much in that time! I don't think I would have changed a thing..even the awkward and embarrassing moments.

    You are so brave for sharing those captured moments with us!:D

  2. I think we had the same group of friends! I swear I have a picture similar to that last one of me and my "dorky" friends from growing up. You are not alone!

  3. Oh boy. Middle school=my "fat" stage. Just one word: torment!! But like others have said, I wouldn't trade those experiences for the world.
    P.S. Adorable blog!! And thank you for the sweet compliments that you left on mine!

    what a funny post! Even funnier is I totally remember that girl like yesterday, oh I love it!

  5. I think you look nice in those pictures, actually. You don't need me to tell you what a colossal nerdbag I was in jr. high/high school.

    DEFINITELY glad it's over. But I would go back to elementary school in a hotbeat.
