It's me again just to fill you in on the progress of the yearbook. Let's see, since I forgot to blog yesterday I will tell you what I did. Thankfully I have all of last year's flyers and club information kept neatly in a file on my computer so I re-designed a flyer for the new year of prospective yearbook helpers. It took me about an hour or so to make a questionnaire, a "what I expect" paper outlining what needs to be accomplished for this year and what the title of the yearbook is and what it's about. Also, I have been working and hashing out things with the ladder. Now, in your mind you're thinking ladder as in a thing you use to climb. However, this ladder is created by me and describes what will be on every page of the yearbook. Seems simple right? WRONG! The tricky part comes with the intro or the Introduction. The intro is three pages which throws off the pagination of the entire book. I have to make sure there are enough single pages and spreads. To speak "human" a single page is just like it sounds one full page in the yearbook and a spread is two pages facing one another (a page on the left and a page on the right that are on the same subject). Well the ladder has gone up in flames I usually do everything in Microsoft Excel but this time I decided to organize everything in a planner. Bad decision because now I have to enter it all in the computer and re-hash it all out again since it's not working out the way it needs to be. On top of that I have to organize and plan for Athens which is another school on its own. Even though they are a satellite school, their information is still put in out book and now that an Athens advisor has been appointed for yearbook they want to make their own pages and send them to me which is completely ridiculous because they couldn't even get pictures to me on time last year. We will see what happens. I am not letting go of my reigns that easily.
Till next time
Your Mary Beth
