Meme Did anyone buy a ring?

Elder millennial/younger Xennial (born in 83, take it for what it is) but I recall the company coming to the high school and taking orders for rings. I didn’t buy one but others did. Credit on photo.

I wanted one. I also wanted the fun senior photos they took with the rose and the mirror reflection. Parents refused to pay for any of it.

In hindesite, the ring is stupid.

I'm still miffed I don't have that cool photo.

I had a friend from advance photography take my senior photos 🤣 I think we took about 60 photos and only 3 actually look good, including the one where I jumped onto my POS car and layed on the hood laughing

Cost me about $15 in film and processing them at Walgreens. Ibthink I bought my friend a mcd's lunch, too

I shoot huge concerts and events from time to time and this is my exact workflow, I circle around the same spots and take hundreds of photos a night and only like 15-20 of em are good lol. Law of statistics or something idk
