DMV

My license is due to expire on my 24th birthday next month (April 18th) and rather than sending in a renewal I decided to go to the DMV and do it myself.  This wasn't so I could torture myself waiting in line and dealing with really unexcited people in the process, I promise.  I've had the same picture on my license since they took a picture when I was 16.  I figured since I lost my baby cheeks and matured a bit in 8 years (novel idea, I know) then I should update my picture.

The wait wasn't too long, only about 15 minutes after I got my number.  Its really fun people watching.  Especially at the DMV.  I think thats one of the most awkward places to talk to people, besides an elevator... don't even get me started about that.

When I was waiting I was thinking about the picture, do I smile or do I try to do the tough person face that guys think is so cool?  Or do I try to be like Tyra Banks and give it my fiercest pose so maybe someone will book me off my picture... right.  Well, I decided to smile, I know, SHOCKER!   So when I walked up to get my picture taken I was thinking what kind of smile I wanted to do.  Hmmm.... try to be as natural as possible.  Then the guy started counting to 3 and I totally wasn't ready!  By the time he got to three my mouth was smiling but the rest of my face wasn't.   I'm pretty sure my eyes had a mix of fear and surprise and my eyebrows had a bit of worry on them.

I'm pretty excited to see how bad this picture will really be.   I'm pretty sure it will look something like this:
