Blog 12: Photograph

This is a polaroid print picture. The light in the photo is amber and gives off a retro hue. We are two girls, not women, but girls. We are standing in the corner of a room with busy wallpaper to our backs. It has blue and white vertical lines that are behind us with a flower lining that circumferences the rest of the room. On the other side of the picture is a sliding glass door.

We both have a sly smile on our faces as if we are up to no good--vixens on the lose. We are also both wearing red and standing close to one another; it seems as if we are one being. She is facing the picture and I am standing sideways. We both have only one arm showing, although my other hand peeks out and is holding an ashtray. Her arm is straight; mine is curved at a 90 degree angle. Her arm is bare; mine is full of bracelets. Her shirt is 3/4 sleeved and v-necked; mine is a tank top, sparkly, and comes above my midsection. Her neck is bare; I have a thick black-studded necklace on.

We both have blonde hair, yet hers is darker. She has hers cut short and pulled back by a thick black headband. Mine is bleached blonde, medium length, and pulled into two pigtails (although you can only see one.) Her head is cocked to the side and she looks fatigued. I am looking straight at the camera and have a devious look on my face.

This is a picture of my best friend and I from 2000. We were at her house at the time, hanging out with some friends as well as random people. We might have been drinking. We were acting very silly and were very young. This was taken at the end of the night by some one who was there and given to us as a gift for inviting them to the party.
