Should've Been A Model =)

Our yearbook at school has asked faculty members for their high school pictures. I knew that I had my freshman through junior pictures but do not have my senior portrait at all. I submitted scans of those first three years, which I'll post here for grins and giggles:
Freshman, 79-80
Sophomore, 80-81
Junior, 81-82

Can you guess the brand name of that last shirt? (Hint, think white pants with a tie-string in front.)

Update, 9/24/22:  Here we are, more than a dozen and a half years later, and while looking for something else I came across a wallet size picture of my senior portrait:


 Senior, 82-83

Finally this post is complete!

Your white streak really came in Junior year.

Actually, it's just the hair style that made it more visible. In earlier years there was enough brown hair just to cover it!

OP! I had some seriously short shorts from them too.

Darren said...

Ding ding ding! Ocean Pacific it is!

Yes, I remember the short shorts, too. But I really thought the pants looked cool!

Weren't you just cute as a button! Oh - I mean, like, you were, like, awesome to the max!

Darren,
Hair, hair and more hair. In my time, short hair was cool. I'm sure your hair was different on graduation from the academy.

Bow-chicka-bow-bow!

Well, you can tell by the way I use my walk,
I'm a woman's man, no time to talk.
Music loud and women warm.
I've been kicked around since I was born.
And now it's all right, it's O.K.
And you may look the other way.
We can try to understand
The New York Times' effect on man.
Whether you're a brother
Or whether you're a mother,
You're stayin' alive, stayin' alive.
Feel the city breakin'
And ev'rybody shakin'
And we're stayin' alive, stayin' alive.
Ah, ha, ha, ha,
Stayin' alive.
Stayin' alive.
Ah, ha, ha, ha,
Stayin' alive.

That hurts, Chanman.

That's OK, if you saw my high school pictures, you could post the lyrics of some cheesy, synth-heavy '80s tune.

Personally, I ws going to go with Garanamils ;-) - Anyway, you were pretty damned cute back in the day. I'm glad you shared your pics.

Darren said...

Back in the day? You should see me now! :-)

Unknown said...

I've already "seen you now"..... You worked it... you owned it... you know it.... ;-)
