dear scrapbooking,

oh how neglected you have been.

remember when we first met? i was in 6th grade and i wanted to document my first trip to disneyland. wasn’t that album horrible? now that i think about it, it was probably pretty good for a 12-year-old. i don’t even think i have it anymore.

we went on a break for a little while, then rekindled our relationship when my mom bought us all those stamps. why did she do that anyway? we should ask her. anyway, i actually think i spent more time that year making cards than with you, but hey, it’s all the name of paper crafts.

hey, scrapbooking, remember that time we didn’t sleep for two days straight so i could make enough pages i liked to send into that contest? that was actually a lot of fun, even though we didn’t win anything.

i’m sorry for this hiatus in our relationship. i suppose sometimes i just feel like the events in my life right now aren’t scrapbook-worthy. but i have a feeling that in a few years i might look back and wish that you and i had spent more time together.

so what do you say? date night this week?

love,
jana

p.s. here are some memories of our happier times.
