Yearbook Kit!

Thankfully I work in my Students Activities Office!  The YEARBOOK KIT arrived today—- Christmas Morning for me!

Being that this is the Fourth yearbook kit I have opened up in my yearbook lifetime, I have enjoyed watching the look of the kit evolve.  This year, I am most ecstatic over the yearbook planner.  In the past, it has been an ugly, boring, black leather planner which was only good for a month-calendar view.  This year— OMG! They combined the planner with the wall year-long calendar.  EXCELLENT CHOICE!  Its beautiful.  Can’t wait to proudly rock it from class to class!  The best part about this planner you ask?  The organized, color-coded, themed bubbles to jot down your ideas for ad sales, layouts, photographs, etc. 

My love for Herff Jones grows every day, I swear!

Home is where the heart is

This past year has been a weird one for me.  So many different changes and new roles.  Naturally, there have been times where it was overwhelming this year and I found myself running to friends for comfort. 

My house, is not my home.  Going home for me is laborious and stressful.  I love seeing my parents and my animals, but going back to that area causes me anxiety.  Recently, I’ve discovered that staying at school causes anxiety also.  School was my safe haven, my home.  However, not being able to escape it enough threw off the balance and it started to become a thorn in my side.

When the walls were crashing in on me, I’d find myself running up the block to my friends’ apartment.  Or, I’d be hopping on a train to play in the city with my best friend from high school.  Or, I’d be calling my best friend from home.  I’ve had this grand epiphany, just now—in the middle of finals, that my friends are my home.  Whenever I’m with them, I’m at ease.  It feels so good to be getting work done in the peace and quiet of my friends dining room.  Although we’re not speaking to one another, just being in the others company with delicious company is all we need. 

I just love my friends<3 Thank the Lord for them!

Genuinely excited

I really am looking forward to this summer.  I can’t wait to have a break from school and heavy responsibility.  Also can’t wait to be 21.  Not that I’ll go crazy, because I’m not that kind of person, but I’m looking forward to not having to worry. 

Sweet deal.  On to becoming an adult.  I should probably work on getting a credit card…and maybe take some time out to hit the gym. Buttttttt I won’t get ahead of myself. For now, I’ll focus on relaxing for a bit and making MONEY.  I need that.  Can’t get to Peru on hopes and dreams.

DONE

It’s the most wonderful time of the year! 

The yearbook’s have begun to find their new homes in the bags of the students on campus.  I am SO proud of the book and of my staff!  One of my editors and I adore watching people look at the book for the first time.  Their faces are priceless!  It’s such a high for me to have people hold the books and enjoy them.  Furthermore, reading the positive comments on various social platforms is also amazing. 

As much as I love the students’ feedback, I love the faculty/administrations feedback more.  The president of our college sent over a thank-you note which was so nice!  Most importantly, our adviser, who is so hard to impress, LOVED the book and wrote a really nice email to me!

I’m so proud, happy, overwhelmed, and excited!  Can’t wait to get rid of all of the books :] and to begin working on next years! (my final yearbook..ever :[)

As an aside, HJ’s tumblr recommended letsmakeayearbook.tumblr.com — Although it just began, it looks wonderful.  Looking forward to their posts :]
