Stephanie tagged me, and hey, why not, I am answering.

Ten Years Ago: I was a young girl of 16, going to catholic school, taking all the hard classes, and scoring straight A's. I worked part time and drove my family's old car to school. My friends called it "the box". I had just gone on my first date with a senior from the boys school next door, and thought it was way more serious than he did.

Five Years Ago: I was going to Arizona State and majoring in photography. Looking back on it, this was a fun and free time in my life. I had a darkroom in my closet, rode my bike to class, and frequently showed work at campus galleries. The weather was gorgeous every day. Things were falling apart with my long-term bf, but I didn't really get it and kept trying to make it work. We drove around in his car and listened to great music. The professional world loomed, and I applied to grad school in distant states.

One Year Ago: In much the same place I am now.. living in NYC and a member of the working world. I was a year out of grad school, training for my first marathon and loving every minute of it.
