friezaessSo.
UQ hosts a journalism conference each year where 3 students are chosen to show off their work in the field.
Apparently, I am now one of these students.
Somehow I must've let it slip that I used to do a lot of drawing, and now one of the professors is doting on me, sending me all these papers on cartooning, letting me borrow his books on the subject, etc. (possibly while high) He wants me to present a case study to a bunch of interstate and international guests where I incoorporate live drawing via webcam into my show on JACRadio and some other stuff. Don't get me wrong, this is fucking awesome. He was particularly candid about how much attention the students get which could open up entire fucking career opportunities in both art AND journalism for me if I play my cards right.
And the conference is on during the semester I was planning to spend in the USA.
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
What do I do ;_;

Side note: if you are still here next year I'd love to interview you/follow you for my documentary (assuming it gets up ;D) <3
