School Pictures?

Do you like taking school pictures?

It actually annoys me. I have to get out of the house to take my photos, which only last half an hour by the way, pay fifty dollars for a couple pics, then drive home. It's a complete waste of time. I like the system that was used in my home country lol. The photographer goes to you and then takes pictures during class.

You get to skip a couple minutes of class and it doesn't take time away from your free time.

I HATE school pictures.
It takes time out of your day and I just hate pictures of myself.

Yes, the school pictures annoy me. My biggest problem with pictures in general is that I can't smile in a picture unless I'm genuinely happy, so I usually seem stoic or I'm frowning is such pictures. And if I smile and i'm not happy then it looks akward. My senior pictures really annoyed me mainly because my mom, who was paying for the pics, wanted me to keep retaking them because she didn't like them.

I don't see the point in them - we all have to line up in the hall get an individual picture and then get a class picture - i hate it because you have to look all smart and you have retarded photographers telling you to smile.

I always tried to be absent on picture day. And on retake day. ^.^
But I thought the little sticker pictures were cool. You could hand out stickers of yourself and trade them, and stick them on your binder and stuff. ^.^

Didn't care for me. It was like any other picture so I just flashed the grin, and moved on. We got stupid ID cards in high school, but we never used them for anything. They always made a big deal about always having it on you at all times, but I never saw mine after they handed them out, because I always tossed it deep into my closet when I got home.

That's true, same here. You have to show them when you ride the bus, you show them in pep rallies (NOT), you have to show them in the library...I mean there's all this junk that they say you have to do to get stuff, but usually they just let you pass and be on your way. Talk about reinforcing the rules. xD

To ride the bus? For real? That's crazy. We could just hop on whatever bus we wanted to and get off wherever we wanted. I think the only thing really usable for the ID cards were to check out library books IF you wanted them. Even if you didn't have it on you all you had to do was tell them your name.

Ack, hate them. We stand in an extremely long line in the middle of August. Toasted chickens, we were. I'd say we'll spend about 2 hours standing in line before we can finally go in the cafeteria and take our pictures for the yearbook, ID, or any personal keepsakes.

It's so boring, especially if your friends are not in line with you and you're stuck between two idiotic guys. They usually do it by our last names...for instance, A - C will go on a certain date, then D - G will go on the next date, etc.

So yeah, hate it.
