Punctuality

Ever had the feeling that someone's watching you? When I drew this next picture, people were. You see, I have a compulsive need to get to class exactly fifteen minutes early. However, to make sure that I get to class fifteen minutes early, I get there twenty minutes early instead. So basically I had a good seventeen minutes of nothing to do before my class started, which is why I began to draw. When I started no one was sitting beside me. But slowly, slowly the other zombie-students started creeping their way over to the empty seats around me. I hit my awkward peak for the day when I turned to the left to hide the picture from the girl on my right only to find some giant blonde guy staring directly at my unfinished, third-grade level masterpiece.

 I avoided eye-contact but immediately felt like that weird girl that's in every class. The one who has no friends, just keeps to herself and draws romantic pictures and writes out poetry and song lyrics.

Except I have friends, I just don't talk to them unless they talk to me first, mostly because it's ten o'clock in the morning and I'm still half asleep. And the pictures I draw are not of hearts and roses but of awesome fire-breathing, elephant-legged women and camels with no tails and dinosaurs licking trees!

...maybe that's worst.

Needless to say, I took a temporary break from drawing during that class and the picture I came out with is still awesome.

Fire-Breather Elephant-Legs can fly. 

The Sun Shines on the Camel

My friends and I all went to different universities and one of them even lived in Alberta. To keep in touch, we used to have group chats on MSN while we watched American Idol auditions and made fun of everyone. During a commercial break one night I announced how my class the next day was going to be so boring and that I didn't want to go. Taylor, who I've basically dedicated this blog to and who might be the only one reading it, suggested I take the opportunity to draw another picture. Brilliant. So I ask my genius friends for suggestions. This is what I got:

• Draw the fire-breathing woman (Hailey)
• Draw a genie (the genie is supposed to be Taylor)
• Draw Brandon
• Draw a camel

You can see why we're friends.

I, of course, drew all these things but also added a few details of my own

So there is the Fire-Breather, the genie, the camel, and Brandon. The camel is running away though and Brandon's trying to catch it as he yells "My Camel!!!" while being chased by a dog. And a pterodactyl. A baby pterodactyl.

Another thing to note about this picture, I wasn't sure if camels had tails. Still not sure if they do... So I just wrote, in the tail area, "do camels have tails?" and figured that was enough.

The genie is, by law, offering the Fire-Breather three wishes. Not sure what they were but in future pictures she doesn't have sword teeth anymore...

The most important detail of this picture though?

The paragraph right above the antics of these new characters.

Why?

Because that's all the notes I took in that three hour class.

Organizational Behaviour

Most university students eventually come across a prof that they just LOVE. They wish this prof could teach every single one of their classes, and, take as many of his/her classes as possible. Lucius is not that teacher. (Name has been changed for the teachers safety or something...I got it from Harry Potter).

Organizational Behaviour. The three hour lecture that lasted allllllll dayyyy. The one thing I remember learning from that class is that I am capabale of sending close to a hundred text messages in one class without getting caught-and I wasn't even trying to hide my phone.

For the sake of my friends I held off texting them so much in such a concentrated amount of time and drew some pictures instead.

As you can see, this is a picture of teenage Simba, Timon, and Pumba from Disneys The Lion King. This is not the first teenaged Simba I've drawn in my life, for some reason I really like him. Probably has something to do with the look on his face...

Oh and in the upper corner there, ya, that's Rafiki saying "Doesn't matter! It's in the past!".

This next picture is a true masterpiece:

Yup, you read that correctly. A death match between Optimus Prime and a Tyrannosaurus Rex. Oddly enough, it's the Long Neck dinosaur (thank you Land Before Time for teaching me the correct name for this particular dinosaur) that takes the focus of this image. Not the fight to the death between the robot and dinosaur equivalents of Chuck Norris. Nope, I preferred the happy-go-lucky style of the dinosaur licking the tree..

Let's Start at the Very Beginning

I am a highly intelligent student currently cruising through university classes at an alarming rate considering how rarely I pay attention in class. It would be indecent to tell my teachers how many text messages I send during their lectures...
Fortunately, my boredom and texting habit allow me to communicate with friends who give me ideas on how to beat the boredom. One of those brilliant friends suggested I draw them a picture during my horrible accounting class and this blog is the amazing result!

Miss Hailey told me to draw her a picture, a woman (probably her) but with some interesting features:

• Elephant legs
• Swords for arms
• Fire breathing

I had no idea how prominent this character would be in my life during the rest of the semester...

As you can see, I stopped taking notes on accounting and started drawing instead. Worth it.
