america's next top graphic designer



i've known my friend, sarah b. since elementary school. since high school spread us all apart (my elementary friends and all) we've managed to keep connected through myspace/friendster/facebook.

sarah and i had a long email exchange about childhood friends and who we thought were cute and not cute, who we had crushes on, who were mean then and probs still mean now, and who did this drug and who's done that drug, and who's remained pretty much the same, but matured of course, with time....

and then in january, she told me that she found our sixth grade graduation program.

so i told her to scan that and send it to me asap.

of course, i didn't realize that she has since, changed her last name.... so i sorted it into spam and it's been sitting there since january.... and then today, as in a couple of minutes ago, i found it and downloaded the pdf.... and i opened up the front page of the promotion.... and...

I TOTALLY FUCKING DESIGNED THE FRONT PAGE AND I DON'T REMEMBER DOING IT!

well, once i saw the handwriting, i knew it was me.. and then i saw my name on it (an artist is supposed to take credit right?) ha ha. i photoshopped out my name cause it's UGLY and a big distraction.

i think the composition is hilarious.

1. the name of the school (not hilarious)
2. i list subjects and then then i list something pertaining to the subject

that is where i think the hilarity ensues... (BUT you might not think of it as funny as i do)

SCIENCE : atoms, growth

i think this is funny cause i don't remember learning about atoms back then and after i've taken several chemistry classes in college (one of which i failed miserably) i still don't know what an atom is, besides the fact that they're really small.

LANGUAGE : essay, report

just think about it. i'm 11 and i'm already obsessed with cholos/cholas.

SPELLING : happy, ???

i was such a "happy" kid. and i cannot decipher what i wrote next to the word "happy"

fact: i misspelled "balloon" in the second grade spelling bee. i was totally traumatized

READING : greek myths

yes, i was obsessed with greek mythology back then. specifically narccissus, echo, psyche, hermes, and aphrodite. how fucking fitting right???? my friends call me narccissus, i own an hermes scarf, i tell myself that i am a goddess of love all the time, i'm psychotic, and... the list goes on...

ART : (a line drawing of a WHALE)

w.t.f.? ha ha ha. i am so awesome.

MATH : 5x56 , 8 squared, 24/28, and a mother-fucking TRIANGLE

5x56 = 280, 8 squared = 64, and a mother-fucking TRIANGLE (hmmm...)

5, 56, 28, 8, 64, 3 : y'all should be playin' the lotto this weekend.

SOCIAL STUDIES : canada, latin america

apparently, even as a child, i wasn't very patriotic... and again, what's up with the cholo/chola fever? and we all know, canadians are hottt... eh?
