I got my retake back & it turned out with my eyes closed. (oh god!!!)
So I emailed the yearbook sponsor and she said that she already sent in the pages so she couldn't take the picture out. So my yearbook picture has my eyes closed!!!! (oh god)
I have the option, she said, of:
*Bringing in a picture of me to just put somewhere in the yearbook
*Bringing in a picture of me and my friends to publish somewhere in the yearbook
*Getting interviewed by a staffer & putting in an interview that says something like "What was your favorite part of 7th grade" and saying something like " sleeping on Picture day!"
I'm transferring schools because of boundary rezoning and i really don't want to be remembered with a bad picture.. i just want the load to be made as light as possible on me. What should I do?
Thanks!
I rate 5's.

Yeah it might be nice to use the interview tactic to make light of what happened, but it also leaves you with a situation where people are remembering you for having your eyes closed (oh god!!!) AND for trying to play it off like it didn't bug you with a joke in the yearbook. Not that that's a horrible thing or anything- better to laugh than cry about it, right? But to miss out on an awesome opportunity to show who you really are in a picture where you're having a blast with your friends- that's more of who you are than some joking "oops" statement is!

That way, when you look at your yearbook a year from now, you'll remember all the people you used to hang out with from your old school and you'll have a memorable story because of how it got there. I guarantee you'll look back and laugh about your yearbook picture when you're a few years older. It'll just be one of those memories that stays with you forever.
