13 Pictures From Your Middle School Phone That Will Haunt Your 'Facebook Memories' Forever
Bobbie Hall / Facebook

Let's take a trip back to middle school. A much simpler time. You think you're all that. Life was easy and the only person you couldn't stand was the boy who broke up with you last week. In your free time, you took pictures.

So many pictures.

It is now the year 2018 and these pictures have come back to haunt you. Here are 13 pictures we are all most definitely doing our best to hide from the world.

1. A way-too-close webcam picture.

Usually featuring a strange pose, bad lighting, and way too much eyeliner.

2. A picture from when you bought yourself a crown.

This picture took many shots to get right. Now you wonder why you chose the one where you're not even looking and your black nail polish is chipping.

3. A picture from that app that used a collage of pictures to make shapes.

Look closely and you will pray that this was never posted anywhere.

4. A picture with duck lips AND a peace sign.

This is a lethal combination. It is to be avoided at all costs. If brought back to the surface years later, run. Oh goodness, run away. Hide!

5. An overedited picture with a rainbow filter.


This, once again, features way too much eyeliner, but includes barely being able to actually see your face.

6. A picture of just your eyes.

Super tumblr at the time, but now just embarrassing. There was most definitely an "inspiring quote" below this picture such as, "I keep my eyes wide open." It really wasn't inspiring, just lyrics to a song you liked.

7. A picture making fun of the "popular girls."

Which honestly just became you copying exactly what they do.

8. A picture of you being "flexible."

This picture almost always became your profile picture as a way to show people how athletic you were. It featured a messy background and probably an ugly face which you really hoped people would just ignore.

9. A picture that exemplified the feather trend.

A feather in your hair was all the rage back in the middle school days. As much as you said you wanted to stand out, you definitely followed this trend like a puppy.

10. Another over-edited picture but this one features an "important date."


That date was probably the day your best friend asked a boy to date you and he said yes. You posted this picture eight days later once you had decided this was true love. A month later you hated him.

11. Another super tumblr picture.

This was your profile picture for months even though it didn't even have your face in it.

12. The only surviving picture from your first musical.

You burned the rest, but this one made its way to Facebook. The face paint still haunts you to this day.

13. Finally, the one you know you should be embarrassed about, but you also still think is really cute.

Because c'mon, you were cringey but you still were kinda cute, right?


Obviously, trying to hide these pictures doesn't always help. They're incredibly embarrassing but hey, we all have them. Let's embrace our middle school awkwardness and all laugh about it together!

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

Bucket List To Live In The Now

Find excitement in your life and start exploring wherever you are right here, right now.

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

Great Value Colleges

If you go to or went to Kent State, then more than likely you have done or will do some of these things.

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.
