Description
I'm the cartoonist for my school newspaper "The Scoop".And THIS is my first strip. The Five Stages of IB.
Originally drawn with pencil and paper, drew two panels again, added them together in Photoshop, and digitally did the lineart and stuffs. Pen tool for the speech bubbles.
I need a name for my strip. Any ideas?

Hey, I finished my EE in 3 nights. Half of it was written the night before it was due XDDDD
The first one made me lol hard. So true, so true. Although the anger for me comes from Physics XD

Oh God, EE, I ended up paying the extra money for the extension because I was finding it so hard - it was worth it, I got a 7 on it and all the extra points.
Eeeeh Physics will not touch that - my friend in that class discovered that his teacher was new to IB and they only covered half the course material in class, so he had to study and learn on his own before the exams.

Yeah...I think i'm going to have the same reaction tomorrow morning with my business paper 2. Too bad I have to end up with a decent grade in this paper because I ran out of time in paper 1... But the moment I step ou of the exam room I'm just going to be like "Freedom!!"
How does it feel to be a free human being?

It feels wonderful to be free, even if college is full of things to do all the time, but with less overload and more enjoyment - that, and my friends live next door so studying is more enjoyable. When you get out, be sure to take a breath of fresh air and do everything you weren't able to do while in IB.
Holy crap this comment is old, sorry!

I actually tended to cycle in between all of them. Nonchalance leads to anger leads to struggle leads to denial leads to a lovely loop in between all of them!

I think I'm in the last stage. D: My second draft of the E.E. is due tomorrow and I am staring at the computer, drinking coffee and eating cake while I organize my primary data. Then I should probably move on to actually writing something so I at least get to 3,000 words. BLAHHH.

Jaja, I find myself flip flopping through all of them all the time. It's usually just struggle though.
Oooh, coincidence! I just turned in my Extended Esssay, the Final Draft and everything!!! You don't know how glad I am to have it done, I ended up jumping and hugging my freshmen friends because I have another load off.
Hope you do well through the IB. And don't go into the denial stage.
