Editor's Notes My mom has made scrapbooks for me for every year of my life. Actually she has made more because she had three books filled up before I turned 1. She also has separate photo books for my younger sister, which have most of the same photos that are in mine, but this way, my mother defends, we each can have our own. She doesn't do the fancy scrapbooking with the special scissors and stickers, and I can almost guarantee that they're not all on (gasp!) acid-free paper, but they're all organized in chronological order with personalized, funny captions under each photo. She taught me how to do the same thing in first-grade when I got my first round of friends' school pictures. I kept photo books through high school and my first couple of years of college, when I started with the fancy-pants scrapbooking. Fast-forward to my senior year. I have four cameras - all with photos in them. I have developed photo packets from my film camera thrown haphazardly around my closet, digital photos that are probably on the verge of getting lost into the technological abyss and two disposible cameras that are crushed in my junk drawers. Photos are precious. They're moments of our life frozen in time, and if we lose them we lose that part of our life. So why do we throw them around, tape them to walls and put push pins through them? Turn to Lynn Hamilton's directions in "Party Photos on Display" on page four to get tips to saving your memories creatively. After all, you'll want to remember your KU years. — Misty Huber, editor Inside 3 Weekly choice 4 Manual From scrap heap to scrapbook 6 Contact How well do you rebound from a rebuff? 8 Bite A little caffeine coaching 9 Bitch + Moan High-maintenance boyfriend & penis reduction 10 Feature Swirl, sniff, swig, sip: Wine on a dime 13 Venue Get out off the box and into these bars 15 Movies, Music, Games Will Smith's Hitch, Bright Eyes, The Punisher 19 Speak B-Day buzz: She calls the shots - if they're java EDITOR AKA QUEEN BEE Misty Huber The Jayplayers// ASSOCIATE EDITOR HATES TAGLINES Liz Beggs CLERK GETS AROUND TOWN Meredith Desmond DESIGNERS MAKE PRETTY PAGES Emily Homer & Joshua Kendall BITE AWAYE HAS THE MUNCHES Britta Fliorman Maha Masud Anja Wilikka CONTACT WILL HELP YOU WITH YOUR PROBLEMS Ashley Doyle Samara Nazir Erin Shipps **MANUAL** IS ACTIVALLY USEFUL Donovan Atkinson Leigh Ann Foskey Lynn Hamilton NOTICE TAKES NOTE OF IT Robert Perkins Paige Worthy VENUE HAS THE BOOZE AND THE BEAT Chris Brown Mandy Hendrix Ashley Michaela COPY EDITOR SUPER STYLISH Austin Caster CREATIVE CONSULTANT KNOWS A LOT Carol Healstead Cover photo illustration: Kit Leffler SPEAK UP JUST SEND AN E-MAIL TO jayplay @kansan.com or individually, the formula is: (1st initial+last name@kansan.com) or write to Jayplay The University Daily Kansan 111 Stauffer-Flint Hall 1435 Jayhawk Blvd. Lawrence, KS 66045
