There is nothing to remind you about aging like renewing your passport. Like, I still think I'm the photo from ten years ago. But as it turns out, I am NOT the photo from ten years ago.
Also I wore the cutest shirt for my new photo but the passport guys said no white shirts (even tho it had colorful embroidery). So instead I’m wearing the trashy sweatshirt I keep in the trunk of my car.
I put the camera on a tripod and took a decent photo, paid to have it printed and then when it came back in the passport it was 3 stops lighter/ washed out
I am getting reallly really grey and that is less of a concern to me than the bags under my eyes, which aren't so much bags as a full Samsonite luggage set.
