Cheap lolz, swashbuckling romance and essay crises

Jenny is a frighteningly bright Philosophy student, Tim is her flirtatious slacker of a flatmate. Come here to follow the life adventures of these two absolutely not stereotypical Cambridge students. You'll learn very little in the process, but I'll get better at watercolour.

Sorry...

... for the glaring lack of posts recently. I have many excuses and justifications, which can be summed up as 'many changes in my life', some of which (not fun) I won't mention in detail, but one of which is exciting and time-consuming and fun and is all explained HERE! I'm really, really hoping that when things have settled down a little bit, I'll be able to do some doodles again. So sorry, dearest readers, but see you soon, I'm sure!

Kant You Wash?



Sorry, it's an old one! I'm away from my brushes and watercolour.

Weekend Hobbies



I guess that means he has to work on it a little bit more.

In Need of a Conceptual Framework




Without at least a speculative definition, this discussion can't go on.

The End of Innocence



That's right, undergrad. Nothing will happen, apart from the fact that your soul will be lost. Forever.

The Limits of Thesis Depression



Once again, it snowed when I drew this. And then forgot it might not still be snowing two weeks later.

With a Little Help From My Friend



I drew this when it was snowing, maybe it isn't snowing today, sorry. Artistic licence.

The Productive Procrastinator



You know you hate your thesis when cleaning the toilet begins to feel like a particularly attractive alternative.

Magnetic Pride



Next to the shopping list, just to remind yourself that Kantian Ethics are less necessary to your life than butter and jam.

Not Quite Dr No



(To be fair, it's often more fun than writing The Thesis.)

Ring ring



Hello, everyone - I have an announcement to make.
I'm sorry to say that the number of weekly strips will from now on be reduced to one.

It's not because I suddenly need to work more (though my supervisor could beg to differ), or because I'm adopting triplets, or because I've got a six-figure publishing contract to fulfill (I wish), or because I've finally decided to learn bar chords on the guitar (though that would be good).

It's because since I started doing these strips twice a week, it's been extremely difficult for me to justify spending extra time drawing and painting other things. So I want to reclaim 3 hours of the 6 I'm currently spending on the Doodles every week, so I can devote them to improving my artwork and colouring, trying other formats, doing some illustration, etc.

So I might do extra strips here and there but for now I'm settling on a weekly strip every Thursday (also in The Cambridge Student).

Hope you don't mind too much, and thanks for reading my Doodles!
