Bearded since: August 2007.  I am an occasional or seasonal beard grower.

Comments:
I've been wanting to grow a beard since I started shaving in my sophomore year. I tried that summer, with failure (I got to a whole month before I shaved it off. I just didn't have mature enough beard growth!). So all throughout junior year I would grow for about two weeks and shave, repeat the cycle. During the summer I decided to try again. Success (at least for me)! I had it until mid-September ( I had school pictures, so i decided to make my mom happy and shave), only to grow it back with a deadline of Halloween. Halloween came. Then Thanksgiving.....lol. 

Unfortunately I have to shave for Christmas, but then I'll be right back at it!

How do I feel about my beard? I love it!  I love playing with it in class, stroking it.... 
Not that many people admire it as I would think , but the few that do make me feel special inside! (All my friends, granted the girls at least, say I look much better with one!) 

It also makes me look slightly older (I work in a restaurant and everyone there is at least in their late twenties, so the age points come in handy, even though I'm still a senior in High School), and slightly more slender. 

I don't think I'll go back to clean shaven permanently, maybe the occasional shave for a specific thing, but then back to business!
