Okay, I usually have a rule of attempting to make one comic a day (so I'm always ahead of the updates by quite a bit, so far I'm somewhere in Febuary), and a rule of making at least three comics a week (So I stay at least in tune with the updates). I usually make this comic quite late, at around 10pm or later. I am, however, going to be breaking this for two weeks, and will most likely not make any comics (I may script them, but not sprite them).

The reason is simple: GCSE Mocks, and GCSE essays mean I cannot afford to be up at 1am making the strip. I'm already having to rely on a can of Red Bull before every exam/essay to stay awake as it is, which I'm aware may be causing me more harm than good, but if push comes to shove and I get addicted, I have ways around that addiction.

I have two whole weeks of Exams before the year is up, starting earlier today, with the cursed Biology Science in the News Essay that actually counts towards my grade in Biology.

The essay was on "Should Whale Hunting be Banned?"
As much as I wanted to just write in big letters "NUKE THE WHALES!" I refrained, and wrote what I hope is at least a B-Grade Essay. I have a habit of writing too much in these Essays, as was apparent in this one because I wrote too much 'pro-whaling' before realising I had 1/4 the time and very little left of allowed 800 words to write the anti-whaling and the conclusion (which was to not hunt Whales, damn I feel like such a conformist but it was the easiest one to write a conclusion about). Still, I overshot the mark of words by about 200, but hopefully my 1000 word Essay (1000 words is scarily easy to write when you've had a 335ML can of Red Bull before-hand) will not lose me too many marks.
