yeah so i'm in my senior year and my school makes us turn in blurbs by the retarded date of september 28, giving me 4 more days whoo!
Not really sure what to put in mine, i don't want to start listing every person i know in my school and every club i was part of and every inside joke i was in on, or even what to use as my sickeningly inspirational quote
/half-rant
what did you all put in/thinking about putting in yours?

....
I used a quote. A stupid random quote that I found on the internet (since I was working on mine the day before it was due and I didn't really give a damn..). But hey, at least a quote is better than "shouting out" to every friend, listing every favourite moment, etc etc. Well, I couldn't think of anything else to put on there.. I remember one year, this girl put something like "HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA (until it fills up the whole space)" in her thing.

hmm yeah i was considering just putting something like
HAH! I CAN FILL UP THIS SPACE *space filling lines until i fill it up*
and i'm pretty sure i'm including a quote, just not sure what to use
our superlatives are also really dumb -_-
"most likely to star in a reality show"
"class party animal"
"most likely to pull off the best senior prank"
"cutest 'would-be' couple"

So far, we don't have anything like this. But, I'm going to say soemthing like, "Follow your heart, you only live once, don't worry about the past, you can't change it."
Hooray for life mottos!

I don't think I had a qoute. I honestly didn't care. I loved it how some parents went and bought a "senior" page to spotlight their student. They sold out 1/2 to 1 whole page to seniors for their parents to show pictures and say something, kind of embarrasing. Your qoute should be " If I knew this was important I would have thought of it earlier."

Your quote should be, "I <3 Magicman".

I hate when people go on and on about all their friends (using cryptic initials, of course) and all the good times.
I think random quotes are the best. I can't stand those touchy-feely quotes such as "Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened," OH GOD, I hate that one. Or the default yearbook quote: "Life moves pretty fast; if you don't stop and take a look around, you might just miss it." And of course, everyone quotes that as "unknown"... >_<

I hate when people go on and on about all their friends (using cryptic initials, of course) and all the good times. Sadly, that's what the majority of them are (at least in my yearbooks). And I find it pointless to put those things in since only a few people know what the hell you're talking about. Then there's the occasional witty quote. And stuff like that. And the rest are inspirational ones, etc etc. |

yeah so its due tomorrow
i've been mulling over some ideas (instead of writing my 6 page essay) and so far i'm thinking of using a demotivational quote, then some random text, maybe some quote like:
Pessimism
Every dark cloud has a silver lining, but lightning kills hundreds of people each year who are trying to find it.
Indifference
It takes 43 muscles to frown and 17 to smile, but it doesn't take any to just sit there with a dumb look on your face.
Loneliness
If you find yourself struggling with loneliness, you're not alone. And yet you are alone. So very alone.

My never high school never had "blurbs"...
But they did have those pages like Landon said, where the parents have a page, or 1/2 of a page about their kid with some pics.

i actually ended up going with one i hadn't seen before + adding 2-3 lines of my own thoughts
what i used was:
Wishes
When you wish upon a falling star,
Your dreams can come true.
Unless it’s really a meteorite
hurtling to the earth
which will destroy all life.
Then you’re pretty much screwed
no matter what you wish for,
Unless its death by meteor.
pure awesomeness
