You would think? It being a very hands-on, busy busy college course. You'd think they would focus more on their practicum hours or their mountains of homework lol
My first instructor there warned me that drama is usually pretty bad in this place, but it still surprises me how bad it gets.

Right, I don't think my highschool was even this bad. I'm sure some pockets of it were, but from like every student I associated with, any drama going on was usually kept pretty silent. Didn't tend to get super personal.

I should also add, my highschool was in a totally different state xD so the whole vibe was different anyway

Is the student population at your university pretty small? I know in my highschool drama, while overblown, was still limited to small circles because we had like 1200 people in my graduating class so it was impossible to know everyone. You just kinda stayed in your clique and never paid much attention to others.

@priestess of pie:
Yeah its a private academy, tucked away in our downtown area. So everyone on campus knows everyone. Putting it that way, it makes a lot more sense. I grew up in a city, where no matter how 'private' a school was, you still had a LOT of students.

@ruby:
I tried to do something like that in the past. Make comics to sorta rant about life, but in a silly manner. But then I was worried that it'd be morally wrong to talk about real people, even if I didn't disclose real names or real appearances.

Then the other day my best friend and I were talking about it, and I said I try so hard to be good to others. And he said something like "maybe you shouldn't be good and just stay in your own lane"
And I kinda get that :vanora_xd:

@jolly: Being good to others is great, but not at the cost of your well being. Remember, you are your best friend so treat yourself accordingly.

@Jolly: idk fam I think you'd be fine talking about it thru comics lol. That's what a lot of comic artists do (when they're not part of a story) and comedians as well.
And I agree with Pie. You gotta take care of you too.

@Ruby: Awwww, thank you <3
I like yours too - the combo of colors, the regal-but-dominatrixish attitude it seems to exude... XD

Thanks, yeah, I gotta remind myself these things sometimes. I try too hard to be like, not offensive, probably cause when I look at myself in the past I'm like hoooooly shet I was an asshole. XD
But yeah, I'll probably end up making a comic strip or something for story telling cause I have a lot of em, good ones too but mostly weird/awkward stories. I just need to decide on a persona character to use cause I have like, multiples lmao

@Ruby: I'm doing ok, thanks. It has been a busy day for me. I'm glad you had a good day yesterday - I hope today is going just as well!

@Jolly: We all live and learn and change over time, hopefully learning from our mistakes and becoming better people along the way.

@Ruby: I helped my mother bring a piece of furniture that she redid to a consignment shop and I'm trying to work on a couple online things. That's about all. Congrats on finding good shoes - what kind did you end up buying?

@Ruby: She's sort of starting to do it as a hobby, I think. This was a small dresser that she did in a distressed look. It came out well.
As long as the shoe fits ;) - lol! I'm glad you found something comfy!
