My Favorite parts of Yearbook
My favorite part of yearbook is when you go get students out of their class.And you can make friends that way.
My Least Favorite Part
My least favorite part of yearbook is when you don't have enough time to finish a page and you have to rush.
Memories
The one memory I have is when I was new and everyone in journalism was so friendly to me.
I will remember in 10 years.....
How everyone is so friendly and how we all worked together to make the yearbook.
