This photo was taken in Junior High, at the peak of my childhood awkward years. I was skinny, shy and didn’t know how to talk to anyone who wasn’t interested in comicbooks, video games or Dungeons & Dragons. I was the kid from all the clichés: ate lunch at his locker reading comics, always got […]
Although my ‘Awkward Years’ photo was of me in the first grade, my years after then have been far more awkward. Unfortunately, I don’t have any pictures of those times that I’m willing to share. I am currently a sophomore in high school, and throughout the years, people have picked on me for my brains, […]
Hello my name is Anna. This is a picture of me holding a picture of myself from the ninth grade. That was the most awkward time in my life. I was homeschooled every year before then. Being thrown into the public school system was an extreme change. Of course I had my share of bullies being the awkward quiet homeschooled […]
This is my photo from 8th grade. 8th grade was tough for me, especially because of something that was happening, totally out of my control.

I think they’re all adorable, but they didn’t feel that way at the time. It’s always fun to see celebs showing off a time when they […]
Never was the popular girl, or the girl next door. I was a very odd/simple girl. Always felt left behind.. Always skinny and shorter than almost all of the kids at school. The female body took forever! There were girls using make up and dyeing their hair, shaving legs, showing off the bra strap! I […]
Then 6th grade, now 52. Everyone goes through that awkward stage. We are all caterpillars that that turn into butterflies. Kids don’t realize that & only look at today….NOW. All kids from the beginning of time. Some are insecure & need to take the negative attention off themselves. Some just need to seem more cool […]
When I was 12 I had crazy curly hair, was a bit overweight and very pale (not in a cool vampire way). At this age I suffered from severe anemia and doctors told me I should avoid getting tired and I was excused from gym classes. This was what got my overweight and extremely pale […]
