Me - Age 14 by onewing

Me - Age 14

I am very late posting tonight. A friend came round this afternoon and we have had a movie afternoon.

I was about to post my photo on 365 and noticed my computer was doing a massive Windows update. It has only just finished. No doubt it has changed a lot of my settings in the process. I hate Windows updates.

This is day 7 of the portrait FoR challenge and the last of my school photos. Hope you have enjoyed watching me grow from baby to teenager.
Lovely portrait of this perfect prefect, great school photograph full of joy, I noticed the perm has grown out now Babs:)

I’ve enjoyed seeing you at various ages and hearing your story... nice series.
February 21st, 2021  
I’ve loved your series! This one is so good too.

It's a been a fascinating story. When did you move to Australia?
February 21st, 2021  
What a fun series. Neat to see you maturing.

@pcoulson Ha ha don't mention the perm.

@casablanca Yes I was a prefect, pure fluke I am sure. I think the headmistress thought it would keep me out of trouble if she made me a prefect. It didn't work though. Not that I did anything particularly naughty I just stood up for myself if I thought I or others were being treated unfairly. If I thought something was wrong I would always ask "why do I have to do that" etc. and that is what got me in trouble. You weren't supposed to question in the early 60s. I think I was just ahead of my time.

@busylady We came to Australia in January 1990.

@pusspup I'm glad I got rid of the perm too. Still in therapy on that one ha ha.

You keep getting older.
February 22nd, 2021  
I have really enjoyed the journey. Thanks for sharing. And here you are all grown up and a beautiful young woman with a gorgeous smile and a lovely haircut.

@happypat Yes school in Manchester.

@ludwigsdiana Yes I remember him, he was an obnoxious cretin wasn't he. I don't like bullies.

@cwbill Strange how that happens isn't it. Growing older is inevitable but growing up is optional.
February 22nd, 2021  
Great smile and fun journey!
February 22nd, 2021  
Adorable smile and eye sparkle!

I very much enjoyed this week of the younger you. You look charmingly happy and like you never experienced the usual teenage angst.
