Wow, yearbook has been crazy lately, trying to track down the businesses, but they get suuuper elusive whenever they need to pay or sign a contract >< doh!
so with a huge deadline last friday and proofs being due today, life was just peachy. So today, rush into yearbook, after school, frantically frantic.
Today only Joseph, Shannon and I were left, whenMiss Dunlap had to leave, so we take the necessary precautions: we turn off all the lights, pull all our backpacks into the back room and each of us tiredly huddle over our dim macs, feverishly working on our layouts. Suddenly the main door swings open, and I lazily mutter "janitor's here..." and what happened next was a blur, suddenly Jo and Shannon were under the desks, crouching as if we were doing a fire drill...?! shoot, my mac screen was facing the door ( we were in the back room that has like paneled windows but the curtains were'nt full drawn) so I put the monitor flat down but I'm just like holding it there?! i didnt wana like break the super expensive thing that passes as a computer, but I had to hide too!...fail. At a certain point, I just threw the mac's safety to the wind and dove under the desk.
by this time, the classroom lights were on..
> silence<
shannon: this is fun!
>silence<
lights turn on
collective sigh of relief
BOOM!j;lskdnfs'!@!!! Door to back room swings open! and light floods the room
"DO YOU GUYS THINK I'M STUPID?! I'VE BEEN DOING THIS FOR 8 YEARS, I KNOW HOW YOU YEARBOOK PPL WORK! I HAVE 5 KIDS IN COLLEGE...!!@!!!" and then a barrage of words, though I was able to make out... "all right, we're all going down to the principals! you guys think you're so smart?! i cant believe you'd actually try to hide!!@! I'm smart ya know!! maybe even smarter than you guys!!@!" eventually..."all right, just get out of here, i never wana see you three again!"
needless to say, we three bolted out of there. sigh, so thats my moment of excitement for the day,but seriously it was a LOT more exciting than i made it seem, im bad at story telling. Though it did remind me of stories of how crazy old yearbook editors used to be. like when john kim used to sneak into the yearbook room at night, climbing the fence and evading janitors.
btw, we've been caught before, but just hasn't been this intense. But on friday, when i was leaving after deadlines at like 5,6ish, school was extremely dark, except for some glimmers of light, but right when I exit the room, janitor was waiting in the shadows....?! so eerie, and I wouldve run, but I couldnt even see the steps, so i kinda hobbled/ran....yeah
round one goes to the janitors for scare tactics and catching us
