I got to go to a yearbook signing party today. The first one i ever went to. I didn't even have to buy a yearbook. It was a gift from one of the people in the counseling center. I'm sooo happy i got to go! I met a lot of new people there that I didn't even know before.

Ever had anything even similar tto this happen to you?

we didn't have yearbook signing parties. we just passes our books around the classes and people would sign them and pass them along.

I went to one once... as a member of the yearbook staff. It's bad being on the yearbook staff because nobody notices when you do a really good job; they notice only the most glaring and most horrible flaws. I got tired of people coming up to me and pointing out flaws, only for me to say "I didn't work on that page. I did pages ___ and ___ in that section, and a few pages in this section here."

i never did anything school related... i had no school spirit. XD

All the yearbook staff members were required to go to the party. Yearbook was one of my classes. I really enjoyed working on the book, and my pages turned out really well, but I do wish I could've skipped the social event thing.

I wasn't in the band, but my next door neighbor was. I would hang out in the music wing after school and catch a ride with her instead of riding the bus. I got invited to all the band and color guard parties since I was around so much.

I think people are just ungrateful. You and the other staff probably did a good job. XD


Kenly: TSK! It's not school spirit, it was just something to do to just get your friends to sign a book an stuff. Besides i'm graduating from middle school soon so, it's somewhat important to be there, in case those people aren't at the freshman academy next year.

I wasn't even in my school's yearbook. I had negative school spirit. :p

Of course, I skipped half my senior year, which might have had something to do with that...

Ditto for me, but I went one step further - I enrolled in online school for my senior year. =P Too much drama, and I was a hermit anyway. I went to the library for most of my classes.

A couple of kids from yearbook did like a ten minute photoshoot of me and a friend drawing/reading in the library and got our names and everything, but our pictures never showed up in the book. Jerks.

I was more a misanthrope than a hermit. I remember on picture day the attendant asked me if I was going smile and I looked at her like she was insane, and she said she'd give me a pass and not tell anyone.

That was very kind of her, come to think of it...

But weirdly, my name didn't even make it in. I did get my diploma, so I'm not really sure what the oversight was. Not I minded. :p

noone ever signed yearbooks at my school ><

[Tazha_bear]

^^; Wow... That's kinda depressing... We have like a whole hour dedicated to signing a year book if you bought one and had a hall pass to go to the gym.

Hall passes... dear God, I'm glad I'm not in high school anymore. Though, now I feel old. :(

You don't get to complain about being old! I'm not even in university anymore. Though we didnt' have yearbooks in Uni, which is kinda nice. My last few years in Highschool were rather depressing. Didn't make it into my last yearbook because I wasn't officially in any particular grade, and the last time I got one no one bothered to sign it except for the one guy in our group who I hardly spoke to. Le sigh. Of course, I was absent so often that it was 50/50 whether I'd be in the book anyway. I did get one painting in which was a surprise when I saw it there. Didn't know.

I just had no interest in doing anything pertaining to school, besides going and getting my stuff done. Or maybe it was more interacting with my peers. I've always done better with older people. My teachers were more my friends than my actual school-mates were. That's not to say I didn't have any. I had a few I considered more than just school-mates.
Growing up in my family, as the oldest child, I had to set examples for the younger siblings... Which basically meant that they could totally walk all over the rules that I had to follow... That always rubbed me the wrong way...
I took Cosmetology in my junior and half of my senior years. I loved the book learning, but the actual application wasn't for me. Unfortunately, due to it, I missed out on pottery... Which I really wanted to take...

I've never even heard of a yearbook signing party. All we ever did was pass our yearbooks around the class. I don't think we've gotten our year books yet and we have a little less than a month left of school.
