I'm Not Even Sure If I'd Heard Of MCR Back Then - Tumblr Posts

So the one on the left is from August of 2010 but it’s about the closest I could find; side note, I have had a whole heck of a wild nostalgia trip today looking back through old pictures on my mom’s computer to find this.

And yet, oddly, I’m kind of surprised how little I’ve changed from then until now? For a minute I almost wondered if this picture was dated wrong because some of the pictures of me in 2009 looked like they were from much longer ago somehow, but I think the date is right... I guess it’s kind of hilarious to me looking at how much everyone else in these pictures has changed and I just. Have not. 14 year old me and 24 year old me look almost the same. Maybe this is why it’s so hard for me to believe that much time has passed, haha. If I wasn’t a coward and I’d dyed my hair this summer like I was thinking about, maybe... but anyways, yeah. I’m perhaps a bit better accessorized now, although in fairness 2010 me was on a hike to the Cascades in Pembroke, Va, which is also why I was wearing my conspicuously rainbow-colored swimsuit under my shirt. But so much is still the same I’m a little flabbergasted that it’s been a literal decade between these pictures.

*Kill All Your Friends starts playing* It’s been ten *bleep*ing years.... Sorry, wrong album.

the 10th anniversary of Danger Days is coming up on November 22nd and i think we should all post what we looked like when the album was released verses now yknow “me November 2010 vs me November 2020” i think that’d be really cute

Danger Days 10 year anniversary danger days selfies it me behold my visage loosely related to in a fandom sense I want to go on about the similarities and differences between me now and me then but I'm going to try to stop rambling 10 years wow a lot more has changed in my life and internally in me in that time period but yeah I'm not really one to mix up my look that much honestly like I've started wearing chokers. that's new plus the little pink fake hair strip in that selfie I did have fake hair clips back then too though I just was on a hike yeah I still wear a ring on my right middle finger out of habit (note that the more recent selfie is a mirror selfie and thus flipped opposite the other one which was taken by my dad) my glasses are different obviously I go for a bolder frame now sorry I said I wasn't going to do a full comparison contrast woops I thought about using my Killjoy selfie photoshoot but that was in summer so I stayed true to the November thing for this post I should still post my Killjoy selfies though later maybe so many things I'm planning to post I'm not even sure if I'd heard of MCR back then like I know I'd heard them around but I wouldn't have picked them out from other general music I was still mostly a classic rock person I believe I had more tags but that's okay you don't have to see the full extent of my rambling
