My first drivers license picture

Recommended Posts

My first drivers license picture:

I'm so excited to get my drivers license. Sure it was only a learners permit and a profile picture, but I could drive now, on the roads, legally. :)
I showered, washed up, combed my hair, and even shaved, well more like I ran the razor over my 15 year old face clipping probably 4 hairs and peach fuzz. :P I put on a nice shirt and jeans and my off me and my mom went.

I had heard all the horror stories about the DMV: the slow lines, the stupid people, the horrible pictures but non of that phased me at all. I was so happy not even the DMV could bring me down. :)

Then I got there. After standing in 3 separate lines before I took my test which I, kid you not, had the following multiple choice question: :S
(Picture of an actual STOP sign that had the word STOP written on it)

What do you do?
They tried to trip me up by the answer being Stop instead of STOP like the picture. :S

To think I was actually worried and missed nights of television cramming for this thing. The practice questions were way harder. :S

So after completing this test and having to wait for the system to process my results, my chipper mood was fading a bit. I got the results and surprise of all surprises I passed! :o

My reward was of course to wait in another long line to get my picture taken. Most of the people in line with me weren't as excited as I was and probably hadn't taken showers that morning, or maybe even that month. B|

So I finally get to the front of the line. I put on a big smile cuz it's showtime! :)
Rather than "Say Cheese" or "Smile" my photographer says the following to me:

"Look at the wall. No, don't look at the wall!!! Look at the wall!!! Don't look at the wall!!! Look at the wall!!! No, don't look at the wall!!! Look at the wall!!!"

I'm so confused at what to I just start to slump, make a weird face, and roll my eyes. The exact millisecond I do I hear a click and a flash.

"Next" she yells. [:/]

It wasn't bad enough they had taken probably my worst picture ever. Oh no, I had to wait another 15 minutes to get it. [:/] When I saw it, I was devastated. It was worse than I had thought, I looked like some missing link mutant without the facial hair.

Occasionally there were worst DMV photo contests at my school. I was undefeated. :D:D:D
Stupidity if left untreated is self-correcting
If ya can't be good, look good, if that fails, make 'em laugh.

They do that on purpose 'cause they want the picture to look the same way you'll look when you're pulled over so the cop will recognize you as the person in the picture.

Yes, #2 seems to confirm, that afro's were only in style for a few years in Texas. :D



I never meant to have an afro! The chick who cut my hair back then was really hot and talked me into getting something she called a "Body Wave" that supposedly would add some thickness and style to my hair. She made it look really easy when she styled it with a blow dryer and just like she said it would, it added some thickness and a little waviness to my hair. It looked great!

Anyway, she told me not to wash my hair for 24 hrs. so naturally that was the first thing I did as soon as I got home. Dude, no way was I able to get my hair to *not* be an afro! She had made the blow drying thing look really easy and it wasn't working for me. I washed my hair at least a half-dozen times and still couldn't get it to look like anything other than afro so I just went with it.
