It's the little things.

Got my test back. I got hammered. Scored 39 out of 58. As far as going any further in Japanese is considered, that's failing. Blah.

  1. Ughhh. Sorry to hear that. Is this because it's an accelerated class, or just that out of practice?

  2. Both, dammit. Both. Before this class, I hadn't really practiced excepting some sparse conversations with Japanese girls for about four years. And I haven't had a regular schedule for probably about the same amount of time, so this whole getting up at 7:45, attending class from 8:30 to 1, and then doing a bunch of homework and review...it's harder than going into construction based labour after years of not working out.

    I am not a daily schedule kinda guy.

    I need to graduate and just get to working in comics so I don't need this shit. Of course, that will likely leave me poor and unknown for all eternity, but, hey, at least I'll enjoy it.

  3. I never actually took a good Spanish class after junior high, so I figured in college I would take some to refresh, and so I could get into grad school. I kind of screwed up, plus got experimented on a bit as well, so it wasn't all that good. I can imagine how hard it would be to take a higher level class after four years of non-use.

    As for doing what you want even though it won't make you rich, better than dreading your job on a daily basis. I certainly hate mine, but the flexibility is nice.

What is wrong with moustaches? Eh?

For Every Problem, a Solution (5)

The final installment of the 'Solution', unless I decide to draw out the following ideas: -Glen Danzig in 'Heavy Metal Human Sacrifice' -Two Face in 'Homophobia' - Steve Martin, as Navin Jackson, in 'Jerks!'

For Every Problem, a Solution (2)

Each panel originally had a caption, a feature which was scrapped in a silly attempt to bring cohesiveness to the page as a whole.  They were as follows: panel 1 - Pig fingers!  Carrot hands!  Cannot draw! panel 2 - Focus off. panel 3 - Perspective is a matter of perspective. panel 4 - What, me worry? In thinking about it, I suppose I might have impanelled these in the orange bar at the right, but it probably would've been a bit much. ... I'm not sure how wide-spread the campaign is, but in  Seattle, there are numerous billboards and bus signs which read, "Jesus is ____."  I want to play mad libs with these things, or else write in, "a day labourer."  Other acceptable answers include, "bearded," and, "featured in a Leonard Cohen song."
