Amy,

Please, please, for the love of God, please learn how to draw.

Stress is all in the mind.

I'm not a flower child or anything but I just don't let myself get stressed.

At the end of the day, why should you let all these little things bother you? OK, I go a little overboard and don't let the big things bother me either hence I dropped out of school and am often accused of 'not caring' about things I should care about.

But you know what? I DON'T care. I firmly believe that if I just go with the flow everything will kind of sort itself out. I'm happy with what I have and who I am and if I keep that mindset everything's sorted itself out already.

CALM THE FUCK DOWN

I'm a graduating high school senior . . . so this is what I get to look forward to next year, huh?

[Kuzzka]

LOL! I love the "I think I am gay!" part XD

[T]

SOOOOOO TRUE! We do that. lol

[shakeitout]

i'm graduating college in december. yes its stressful, but it also goes by WAY too fast. dont let the stress ruin it for you! (after you sleep through an exam and then get a D on the make-up, nothing really seems so bad...)

[comix lover]

it helps you: you can figure out what is college like without saying anything bad about it... ql :))

[Jessamyn]

I loved the final panel so much.

[V-ron]

Great comic, very true. Nice to know that it's normal to feel like everything piles up at once.

I've been in college for two years. I'll be a junior by the fall. (only two more years left!!:-) anyway yea college can be stressful at times, but fun as well. You have so many responsibilities which can at times be overwhemling. But that's why colleges have groups that you can join, which I luv!! As long as you plan ahead, you can have time for other things you enjoy! (like parties) :-) So to you all that will be going to college for the first time, take it with enthusiasm! Don't be stressed as soon as you get there. You won't have fun that way! And to stop having me type so much, (sorry) just take it one day at a time.

[Celicia]

I'm going to college this fall!! Ugh, I'm stressed out already!

[Artsy]

i really like how this appealed to art students. and the artwork is original i like the disproportionate faces A LOT.
and it was funny "lots of sex!!" was a hit.

[Sarah]

Ha. def. the best thing I've seen in a while.
....seriously though, ANTM is WAY better then Next, Exposed, Date My Mom (or whatever that one's called), or A Shot at Love, for stress. Although Tila Tequila can help take your stress level down...its like a car wreck, I want to look away but I can't.
Either way, you gotta love pop culture television!

[chronicoctober]

I loved this comic, it is all so true! Parents always call at THE worst times.
And I have stayed up until 3 many a night watching MTV "Exposed" and "Next" while cramming for exams haha.
College is twice as much work but also twice the fun of high school.

[Nicole]

Ever wonder why art majors seem to live in the studio and run on coffee and cigarettes? HALF CREDIT FOR ALL MAJOR CLASSES! (at least where I am). It sucks.

[Dreamer]

um... i'm finna be a freshmen and i already feeling stress out.i'm glad that i'm not the only one who is feeling this way. so thanks for putting it out there

[jfo]

Love your comics, btw.

[jfo]

HA. I just finished up the end of my sophomore year and I was up til 2 working on a portfolio... jeez, if I have to procrastinate and work under this much pressure & stress I can only imagine what college will bring.
Hopefully I'll find something I enjoy

"Have lots of SEX!" Bwahahahah!!!!!

Great comic, Amy!

[Catherine]

LMAO! Very funny and the art is original :)

"I think I'm gay!" rofl! I have a couple of friends going through that right now and it's stressful even for me :P

[katie]

this was sooo funny. college isn't really that bad... but like all other school (middle school and on) stress comes with it. there are good days and horrible days but its part of life... no one would get things done if there was no stress

[Caira]
