A yearbook is a collection of uncomfortable portraits and cheesy quotes that are used to commemorate a school year. Most school will publish a yearbook annually with the all the names and pictures of their students and faculty members. They will also list all the clubs, sports teams, and extracurricular activities, and typically include a recap of the biggest new stories from that time. Traditionally you get your friends and favorite teachers to sign your yearbook and write you a little message. Then you stash it away and forget about it for a few years until you open it one night when you’re feeling a little nostalgic. You’ll end up regretting it. You’ll feel guilty about forgotten friendships. You’ll mourn old friends who have passed away. You’ll see how young you once were and that always makes you feel old. The older the yearbook is, the more it will make you cringe. It’s fun to reminisce but you can’t help but notice how awkward you were.
