Meetings, pictures, more meetings.

I have been panting like a dog in order to get pictures of professors for the yearbook. Since the professors cannot find it in their schedule to come to me and have me take their photo, I have devised a system where I go to them. For those professors who had their photos taken in past years, I have kept them in archives and reuse them if they don't want theirs updated. This year like the past years, I had Drew Davis send out a mass email to all the professors and if they respond back, I will go to their office and take their picture at a given time. This sounds relatively simple however, in order to have a cohesive look with all the faculty, I take their picture on a green background. The traveling green backdrop is quite large and annoying to carry around. On top of having to carry it around, I must retrive it and bring it back to the Student Center each time since they use it for student id's. It has to be the most annoying part of my job.

In other news, yesterday was the club fair. Sasha and I only had two people sign up but that is fine with me since this year I have a dedicated staff to help me out. They have been on top of their projects and I am very proud of them. We are having our second meeting next Tuesday and they are excited to receive their next assignments. I have never in my life had people willing and able to help me!

Last night seemed to be a waste... and this is what ultimately stresses me out. Sasha and I worked on the pages but nothing felt accomplished. This yearbook is supposed to be my baby and my senior project but I feel like it slipping through my hands and it's not getting done. I fear that we may not make our deadline for the first time since I have been Editor. I'm scared.

Tomorrow Mark, the HJ Representative is coming maybe he can give us some tips to calm my nerves and really jumpstart this yearbook!

Breath in, breath out
