my Prom, My sweet 16 and my Drunken 21st

When I was in my junior year of high school, my friend Misty needed a date for the prom and didn't know who to ask. So we were talking about it and she half jokingly said; "I should just take you" and I said "Ok!" and we ended up going to the prom together. It was at the Long Beach Hilton in this big banquet room, blah blah blah. Funny thing was, we weren't going as a date, but rather because we wanted to and we wanted to piss off our schoolmates by being gay in public. So you're probably saying to yourself, well friends go to the prom together all the time. so whats tha big deal? We went as a couple (ie, held hands, took this picture, slow danced) after we got our fill of stares and gawks we took off for a party held in our honor. we got way too drunk at that party. It sure was fun though.

This was taken at my sweet 16 at Hillcrest park in Fullerton. I turned 16 back in 1992 so deathrock was still pretty big. look at us, what a bunch of rabbles. I wanted to make sure I had a great sweet 16 so I went ahead and threw myself one. I was really surprised this many people showed up. We had cake and icecream and beer and gothy music. There are a whole bunch more pics from this day which will be up here soon.

This was taken at my twenty1st birthday in John Webb's kitchen. We're showing off our tounge piercings but you wouldn't know it from the looks of it. My 21st birthday was full of drunken debauchery and yes, there are pictures to prove it. Those will be up soon as well.
