Guitar Hero or Studying?

About a year ago I started working for Outward Bound.  One of the best things is getting mail while you are on course.  It reminds you that, yes, you do have a life beyond this craziness.  This comic was sent to me during a course last fall.  One of my friends was getting ready to graduate, and as you can see not really concerned about it.

Pigs Flying

It's moments like these when you find out how your friends really view your study/work habits.  Of course, you're just as excited as they are to find out you actually can complete tasks ahead of schedule.

Writing a Paper

This is a very funny, and true moment.

If you haven't read it yet, here are the steps to writing a college paper in 36 easy steps. :)

Worst Class Ever

Last year one of my friends was taking what apparently was "the worst class ever."  She sent me a couple comics inspired by, and probably written during, this class.  There seems to have been a few people that found productive ways of surviving during the lectures.

Nightmare #137

This was sent in by a friend.  Sometimes school gets so stressful that it attacks your sub-conscious.

Plato's Cave

A friend of mine is studying like crazy right now getting ready for her comprehensive exams for graduate school.  Now, I'm getting ready to wrap up my graduate work, which I'm proud to say I've only taken one test in 44 credit hours of class.  I have written my fair share of papers.  And my final paper will be about 75 pages.  All that to say I have no idea how stressful preparing for this test actually is for her.

I do love a fun analogy though, so I came up with one for her.

Misconceptions about Polly Ann

This is when you know your life has too many similar acronyms.  Passive-aggressive Polly Ann was shortened to Polly Ann and then to just PA.  This is not a big deal, except most of my friends are also into sports.  One of my friends decided it would be fun to write a comic about a possible acronym mix-up.
