A bittersweet two days.
Yay, you're
alive!
[Insert random message for the random person]
♥ Stacy N.
That's primarily what I wrote in people's yearbooks for the past
two days. And it was a bit bittersweet considering that I'll never see most of
these people again. For two reasons
1. They’re going to a different high school from me.
2. They’re still going to the same school not yet ready to move onto
high school.
So it was
goodbye I’m glad you’re my friend/ you were amazing, [insert other nice adjectives]/have
a great life/ etc for most of them. And a see ya later to those that I know
will see again. There was always facebook and life having an uncanny way of
making me meet people that I thought will never see again, though, so at least
I won’t be that out of touch. Still, I won’t meet them again, so if you go to
my school and is reading this right now. Just know that I said goodbye/see ya
later depending who you are and which high school you’re going to next year.
Now let’s
move onto other stuff of no important matter, if you can call this unimportant.
What do you
get for working your butt off for most of the year to create something that
everyone will enjoy? A yearbook.
A yearbook
that’s thankfully better than last year’s but has slightly less pictures and a
whole lot of mistakes. And I’m almost tempted to go through the whole yearbook
with a red pen to correct them all. Thankfully the very last page didn’t have
any mistakes, because it was written by yours truly.
In fact I should
have done that, discreetly edit the whole yearbook at home. And the yearbook
teacher wouldn’t care because I’m on the yearbook team.
This reminds
me…
And yes that
is a hole cut into a shape of a puzzle piece on the front cover. My yearbook
teacher haggled very hard for a lot of stuff to be added in the yearbook this
year, and surprisingly it worked. Also have fun connecting to the power of knowledge, which actually helped me this year if I think about it.
Salut!

Les citations ~ quotes
For
the moment I'm going to be basking in the (five) awards that I received
tonight, at my school's award ceremony. Meaning, I won’t be writing a
proper post today. However I will provide you quotes of anything that sounds
inspirational. Also have an amazing night! ^.^
