my yearbook pics over the decades



Yearbook Yourself is a super funny site. just upload a pic of yourself and have fun with some past faux pax.

New Fav Music Vid: T.I. & Rihanna "Live Your Life"



ok so i can't find the video to add on the site, but i did buy it from iTunes. it has an old school cinematic feel. i wish i saw the two of them together more throughout the video. however it tells a story and is a lot more than just two people lip-synching a song in front of a camera.
