Update on Scrapbook

I have figured out I am going to tell a story in order to make it cohesive.  I am going to take some pictures today and tomorrow, and then I am going to make a power point out of them.  Past, then present, then future.  I have decided how I will show my future, I just need to figure out how to get the pictures I want together.  Im going to show herbs, needles, a doctor's coat, and finally a business card.  The present will also be pretty easy.  Picture of a list of pre-requisites, an NMSU logo, and a picture of the acupuncture school school.  Maybe a picture of catalog instead of the school.  We will see.  I know the colors I will use already, red for the past, black and bright or light blue for the present, and blue and green for the future, representing pain and anger for the past, hard work and hope for the present, and healing and calm for the future. The problem I am having with the past is figuring out how many images I can put it without cluttering it up.  The pictures I want to use, especially the first one, are going to be very descriptive and maybe even powerful (I hope!).  I am also having trouble deciding if I should simply use pictures, or if I should include words.  I am quite conflicted by this, because I know the words could definitely add something, but could also get in the way.  Again, all I can say is we will see.
