LITERAL
(a) I, Emma Seyffert, affirm that I completed my independent component which represents 30 hours of work.
(b) My best source was Elissa Fultz who was the Editor in Chief last year. She helped me calm down and relax when all I wanted to do was curl up in a corner and cry. She gave me a lot of great advice, and it was nice to get some reassuring words from someone who has been in my shoes.
(c) Here is my work log!
(d) Basically, for my second independent component, I completed the 2012-2013 yearbook! We finished the last 16 spreads. We spent a lot of time running around to get last second photos and quotes. It took hours and hours and hours to finally complete the book, and we did it! And it looks pretty darn good.
INTERPRETIVE
I usually spend at least ten hours in the yearbook room per week. It wasn't exactly difficult to reach 30 hours. A lot of work goes into making a yearbook, and even when we finished one thing, there was always more to be done. Here are a few of the last spreads that we completed for the book. Enjoy this sneak peek!

APPLIED
While completing the yearbook, the editorial staff played a vital role. I noticed that when our staff was doing the best that they could, everything went smoothly. However, when people got lazy, it was much more rocky. It confirmed my second answer that and editorial staff plays a huge role in the book; it's basically a team sport! You can't play soccer by yourself, and you can't complete a yearbook by yourself.
