The bores of the 1st day blues...




Well the first day of lectures was ok…incredibly boring but it still went ok. Our lecturer came about 2 hours late but luckily another lecturer came to substitute (he’s better then the real one but still). The people in my class are…well they’re a little hmmm I guess you could call them diverse: 2 Indian blokes, one guy that’s so egotistical that it seems as though he’ll blow up, one very odd gut (I think he’s a little depressed- probably into punk or metal), a black guy that’s really nice, an Afrikaner who is also very nice and one fellow with bright orange hair…I barely know any of their names but I’ll learn them over time.



The timetable has remained relatively the same as last year with the exception of the ordering of Thursday’s lectures.

You know I should stop making these premonitions…
Yesterday my lecturer said be on time for tomorrow at 9 and I said “hey sure, im never late”. When I got home I told my folks about the strict laws of attendance: “ if you are more then 10 minutes late for a lecture then you are marked absent- 3 absent marks and you are given a disciplinary hearing with the possibility of expulsion. I said to them that what if there is bad traffic? One can’t really control such a thing so I was a little nervous…so naturally I left at about 8:30 and wouldn’t you know it- the most incredibly bad traffic for the whole way since the start of corlett drive (a road leading to the high-way)…I arrived at about 9:07- 3 minutes later and I would have been marked absent. Naturally it could only happen to me: mister Murphy’s Law!

Anyway I’ve been doing some rough sketches on the main protagonist for The Vertigo Institute…his names Eliot Rayn (tentative title).
Its only a rough concept sketch that I did in a few minutes during my boring class.



Ok then all, take are of yourselves.
-J-

P.S. hey I’m getting better at this updating thing- guess its because my life has become more active
