Yearbook!
So my Drew yearbook came in the mail today!
Lindsay hinted that the captions were not so disastrous this year. This, of course, is because there are almost no captions. This saves the yearbook people some embarrassment, but I'm actually disappointed. I wanted another spectacularly bad yearbook, not just a middling yearbook.
Some things I noticed:
- There's a nice (but grainy) pic of Tri-Beta inductions in the clubs section. Of course, Tri-Beta is listed nowhere in that section at all. Guess I'll just write that one in...
- Lots of fabulous photos of Colin and Lindsay! Almost made me wish I had done more activities. Almost.
- Lil Ania is not pictured on the Women's Soccer pages. The plus side is that they put the correct apostrophe on "Women's" this year.
- It says Class of 2010 right before our portraits section. Shit, guys! We have to graduate again!
- Just a composition note for whoever compiled the nice color photos in the beginning: Having a photo of some bland looking wet pavement with a leaf or two on it as the largest photo on a page is not the best stylistic choice. Doing it twice is...really boring.
For my own satisfaction, I think I might take all the pictures from Facebook that piled up over the years and make my own personal yearbook in MS Publisher. I'll put the captions through a couple rounds of Babelfish translator (English-->Chinese-->German--->French-->E
nglish is a pretty good mix) and see what I get. A bowel of sweetness? My water bag? If it's
good awful enough, I might even get a few copies printed up professionally, for laughs...
