Oh Lord, I was 24. I thiiiink I was dating a guy waaayy to old for me, though that might have been my 25th year. I was working a fun, but sh!tty job (no stable salary, no benefits, but it was a museum, so it was still kind of awesome.
I was super hot around that age becuase my best friend was getting married the next summer (07-07-07) and I didn't want to look horrid in her pictures so I was working out ALL. THE. TIME.
Holy crap, this seems like a lifetime ago.
I was 24, and had been dating my husband for a couple of months.
Enjoying having my own place and working my first full-time post college job.
Starting to see friends getting engaged/married.
I was 18, tan, and skinny too! Lol.
I was in a summer fling with a DJ (This was the summer me and BF broke up)
Getting ready to start my first year of college at an all girls school that I only stayed at for one semester.
Finally starting to grow into my own and figure out my own life.
20 years old, and actually having the summer of my life. Just moved from an apartment into a house with my four best girlfriends, one of who was living there with me for the summer. Working part time, playing full time.
