senior syndrome: graduation picture day. // August 21, 2009

How absurd is the moment of the realization of the impending doom that is college graduation? Very, I say. The image of a toga and a cap and being done with schooling forever just does not compute in my puny, pea-sized brain. More so if that image happens to be of me. That is just such a crazy, foreign concept that I can’t wrap my brains around. That, and the six-month-or-so long “weekend” between the point of graduation and the point of employment.

But anyway. Before I break my brain, let me digress, or just post about something tangentially related to this: graduation picture day. In other words, I just had mine taken today. Yay? Sure. Here are some photos:

me + isabel

paulina. guuurl, why are you so pretty all the time?

jamie (& her awesome falsies) + rhein as russell from up!

jamie with rhein’s balloons. spot the ‘badges’ on the table. :)

Speaking of balloons. They were filled with helium, by the way. We all know what that means:

music by sufjan stevens. on another note, i LOVE my new computer. it is so easy to edit videos.
i used to slave away on them because my old one was so slow. but now it is all great and stuff :D

So, I went as Max Fischer. I am living now in the constant fear of making a guest appearance on Tenenbaum Fail. This fear is not a joke. It is real. Don’t you dare submit my picture, blog reader. :(

More pictures under the ‘cut’.

Max Fischer + Amélie Poulain.

Isa’s shot was conceptual :)

Thank you Carla for the blazer, thank you Pau for the hat.

Why yes, I was in shorts, actually.

Haha! That sounds REALLY fun.

Haha! Funny ng video. “Ubusin mo na.” Parang drugs. Gusto ko makita yun Russell picture. And yours, of course! Feeling ko iisipin ng mga tao you just dressed up like the proverbial prep school art geek. (Dami pala gumagawa nun!) Cai was Margot Tenenbaum for her creative shot pero tinabi siya sa isang girl na either Alice in Wonderland or cosplay character.

Onga eh. I realized I sounded really mean after I uploaded it and people saw hahaha. Yeah, I didn’t really know what to tell people when they asked what I was going to be, so I just said “private school person” or “my favorite movie character.” If they don’t get it, they don’t deserve to know the truth. And LOL, poor Cai. Even Sartre couldn’t save her.

Does everyone dress up like that for their picture? That’s really neat! Also a+ on your look.
