It has been a long while since I have been able to attempt Centus, but this Saturday morning, I get up early and without a huge agenda. Jenny helped out by giving us a short assignment for writing: only 16 words. Those words should be about ourselves when we were 16. The first thing that comes to mind is how innocent and fresh I was so long ago! I think I will go with my first impression today, and if you want more shorties to read go to Jenny's blog at http://jennymatlock.blogspot.com/2011/12/saturday-centus-sixteen.html.
Sixteen
Sixteen: fresh, undaunted, smooth and unwrinkled as new foil, ready to wrap myself around life.

So true!
Great pic! Love the analogy with foil!
So true for most 16 year olds, thankfully. But not for all, sadly. Have a great week!
Sixteen year olds today are certainly not like that now....I know because I have twin 16 year old girls..
Sounds like a great adventure ready to begin!
Love the picture and truer words never spoken. Dreams at our feet, stars in our eyes and our head in the clouds :)
This is energizing. What a fun picture to boot.

brava! my favorite Centus entry.

love the analogy
Love this! AND the photo!! I was new foil once, but when it wrinkles, you just cannot smooth it out! Darn!!
Yes Judie, but wrinkled foil is more faceted like a diamond and therefore reflects more light!
Beautiful picture Claudia. So young and vibrant!~Ames
I loved this Claudia. What a gorgeous picture of you. I think at sixteen I couldn't even get out of the box without ripping and tearing.
Sigh.
Hope your holiday season is going beautifully.
Hugs and blessings.
