High school horrible.
Rock you like a hurricane. Can you be more weird and embarrassing than this? Probably not unless you're my brother.



That's a double 'French' horn I'm sitting on. I had sewed most everything I wore from rotting pieces of other things like some horrible clothing Frankenstein monster, as if I were living in the post-apocalypse? Maybe? I was 15, I made the tail out of latex foam and cloth, I was sleeping in churches and a movie theater.

I WAS TERRIBLE, gross, insane, and completely sober. By the time I was 17 I was in college but that was an entirely different sort of mess.

It looked so bad on me, and I didn't realize until years later.

This is definitely the most intriguing high school portrait I've seen so far!

Intriguing like a character in a book that I would have tried to be like because I would think they were most excellent.

The tail was at least better than when I was wearing a hospital gown all the time.

How did you attach... to your... ow.

Wearing the tail under the hospital gown sounds painful.

Nonono! The hospital gown was a completely separate phase. The tail I could only wear with pants that had loop holes, for the belt that it was sewn to. Besides I wore the hospital gown more as clothing than as a hospital gown. (I wore underwear).

But you got to admit, wearing nothing but a hospital gown and a fake lizard tail pinned to your backside wold be both funny and painful.

... hmm... something to try...

If I had seen high school Michele back then, you totally would have captivated my attention and be fixated in my peripheral vision (I would have been too shy to actually look or talk to you directly, you see).

I am going through the ones listed, and it is definitely fun, you remind me of a girl I had a crush on (I was too afraid to make any moves and I think it went both ways), although she had more of the both mix thrown in there as well. I lost contact with her after high school, but I saw her a few years ago at a pool hall, we both were with someone else so we just said hi and went on our way.

You probably just think you scared them away, but some of us were more attracted the more radically different they were.

That's cool of you. I knew 0 people who thought I was attractive at that point in time though. Of course I was mostly oblivious to my freakishness.

Oh--I figured you played French horn because you drew yourself sitting on a French horn case.

Yes! I do! I just don't know what ftw means. I'm not with it. I was trying to figure it out because I'm confused and I like to have a semblance of an idea of what is going on? Do you play french horn?

It means "for the win". It's a silly Internet phrase, but, sadly, it's permeated my vocabulary. :P

Yeah! I've been playing French horn for about five years. I got my first double horn about half a year ago and I love it. (Unfortunetely, I played mellophone for the first time this year as well in marching band, and I did not love that. But it's all good.)

Are you in a band/orchestra, or do you play solo?

I was in band in high school, I played with a string orchestra in college, and now I play by myself when I remember to....er.

I rock when I practice everyday......but I don't practice every day so I definitely do not rock right now.

There's such a difference in sound between a good horn double horn and an okay single horn. I have a pretty classy one, but I still go to the music store to play the ultra horns that cost like ten thousand dollars and are made of gold or something crazy.

My guess is that they're made of platinium. My double horn would probably fall in the 'okay' category, but since I'm still mastering the thumb key, it's fine for now.

I know what you mean about practicing. I play piano as well, and I practice that every day, but horn usually falls to the wayside. Oh well.
