School Kills...

... free time. It does! It's a murderer. It should be locked up, before it strikes again.

So, yes... I'm updating!! With a comic!! :D And now, a few of you are thinking... what? I've already seen this!! How annoying. Ivy, you slacker! Well, now I need to explain myself: If I see you people everyday, why am I posting the comic you have seen first-hand?

Well, I debated that too, and then I realized something. All the people who read my comic...? I don't see all of them everyday. Usually, it's thirty seconds in the hallway for people like... Kat, and Bippy... and then, now, not at all!! *waves at Ben, who is far, far away*

Basically, I'm going to try and post regularly for them. Because I'm nice!

((But not totally altruistic. I like showing people my comic in person because I can SEE THEIR REACTIONS. The reason I do the comic? I like seeing people's reactions. Preferably laughter. It's my milk, my gatorade, my inspiration. You people reading over the Internet? Can't see you. So, guess what? YOU GET TO COMMENT. Because, like most cats, I love being petted and cooed at. Otherwise, I hiss and scratch your hand. Would you like me to hiss at you? I thought not.))

Now I need to rant a little about this comic. :D It was FUN. And done in record timing, but you all don't care about that. What you people MAY notice is the backgrounds. :D Yes, I know I do lots of backgrounds in my comics. But these are different (the ones I did, anyway). The fact is, I did not HAVE to do such detailed backgrounds, but I DID. :3

Also, this comic came out a little different from what I had in my head prior. What happened was, as I was drawing it, I realized that in the scenario I had them in, they would say different things... so, instead of substantially moving the plot along, you got essentially two conversations that you could feasibly hear Kat and Bippy, or Court and Erin, having. Thems the breaks!!

Ivy, out.

I'm a bad girl...

Okay, so, once again, I'm going to post without art.

As one of the officials of Sprance, I reserve the right to NOT be guillotined.

But, as it was the first day of school, I had to rant a bit. Not about anything bad, though!!

I am just convinced that I have every single, infamously crazy teacher in the entire school. I'm serious! Almost every teacher I have is maniacal evil in the same way: loves to torture their students with insanely hard projects, while making fun of them. Kez, Coach Mac, Whitney, Movick, Welling. Not including my less crazy teachers, Daniels and Castor (who has been known to be crazy on occasion). The funny thing was, mom looked at me with sympathy when I told her how I had all the crazy teachers in the school. Au contraire!! I'm not complaining.

I think it's hysterical. I may pull my hair out by the roots this year, but it will be hysterical. In a possibly crazy way. I just hope I don't die. Dying would be very bad at this point.

((Oh, and I just decided Daniels, my art teacher, may be crazy too. She requested we bring in a common household object tomorrow, which we will make into 'art'. I'm bringing a busted calculator. I'll never get this modern art stuff...))

Anyway, I think this year will be fun. :3 And exhausting. Especially with band. And then they want us to take on more activities!! O.o Hello people, I can't drive yet!! My parents have lives too!! They can't be forever carting me places!! I can only over-achieve so much, I'm sorry.

Okay, done ranting.

Ivy, out.

If You Have Not Read Eclipse, It Might Be A Good Idea To Not Read This

Okay, so I just finished it... no, there's no art yet. Doing a comic about HP 7 was interesting, and I may do one of Eclipse, but I can't do one now for two reasons:

1: I just finished it. You'll understand.

2: Band is freakin' EXHAUSTING.

So, today was the last day of band camp... so glad it's over... glad to have met all the freshman, who are all awesome in their own special way. No, I'm not going to talk about band for the whole rant. No, I am not going to nag at A CERTAIN PERSON for not showing up at all... though I REALLY want to.

Anyway, Eclipse. That's what this rant was about, right?

It took me a while to finish, which isn't bad... I liked spreading it out a little. Now, for real, is when those of you who haven't read Eclipse need to stop reading. Really. Now. Don't read on.

I wasn't joking. Stop.

....

Okay, so today, during band? Ashy and I stopped in the library on our lunch break to read... got a lot of reading done. And, because we lost track of time, I was forced to stop on... lemme check... page 527, paragraph 7. Sometime, maybe now, when it's convenient, open your copy, and see where I was forced to put that book down for THREE HOURS. I swear to gosh almighty, I was SO MAD at Jacob. And a little sick. But that's me, overreacting. I'm not so mad at Jacob, now... I feel a little sorry for him. A little. But that's just me, I'm a sap!!

:3 So, Bella didn't change. But will!! w00t!! That makes me happy, because I love Edward more than I love Jacob... but I still feel sorry for him. A little.

I feel so less stressed now!! A combo of finished band camp, and finished Eclipse!! Now, I can go on believing that it's June in peace... until next Wednesday morning, six AM sharp.

Sorry, for those of you who didn't stop reading, and I spoiled the ending. I was in serious need of rant-age, and Court and Bippy were not on. So, what to do? I'll make it up to you by doing some new art soon. Promise. :P

Ivy, out.
