Thought some of you 80s/90s kids would enjoy this 4 min. video I just finished about note passing in middle school.


The Last Colorful Note from Alex Mallis on Vimeo.



All the notes are 98% verbatim.  Too bad all the kids text these days.  Folding notes into little squares is a lost art, in my opinion.

Enjoy!

I remember the first girl I asked out when I was 12 in 6th grade hahaha. The video was kind of boring though.

i feel like some background music or something would spice the video up. it is a cool concept but i feel like it is kind of awkward/stale to watch.

Wait are the people reciting the notes the ones who wrote them? I thought it was a great concept, nice job.

That's funny. My girl actually just gave me a note literally ten minutes ago.
