Today I learned the 顧 kanji, whose meaning is to "look back" or "turn around". As usual a little story is needed to keep the character in my memory long enough to be able to write it intuitively. For context, the 雇 part means "hire" or "employ", and 頁 is used with the meaning of "head" because of it presence in many kanji related to the head (even though the character technically means "page"). So without further ado here is the story I came up with:
"You were hired to take a picture of a major drug lord, so you prepared your 10x zoom long distance cameras and lenses, and took a plane to their country. A full head photo was the only requirement, which you thought would be pretty easy, but every time you were about to take the picture the guy would look back and greet some acquaintance or another. Being in a completely different building means only one angle is possible, so the guy constantly turning around made your job pretty darn difficult, having to go from roof to roof just to take a one picture."
Just keep still, gosh darn it!

Are both 雇 and 頁 kanjis on their own? If so, it would be better to say something like "The kanji 頁 has the meaning...".
