[KPOP] [ETC] GROUP PROJECTS or SPARKLING, PRISTINE ROOM: THE SEQUEL
OK, room is 90% done, and I'm going to have to live with that, since I am dusty, tired, and not really in the mood to deal with the remaining laundry or books anymore. If I get very ambitious (or stupid) later, I might take pictures of my newly cleaned room for posterity's sake (since it's unlikely to remain this way for long).

The end of group projects.
Well, sort of. Technically speaking, working in the graphic novel industry is basically landing smack in the middle of a clusterfuck of group projects. But those are all the fun kind that involve crazy brainstorming and lots of drawing and you get paid in the end (hopefully, if you've played your cards right). School group projects, however, are another animal entirely. They say the point of assigning group projects in an academic setting is to teach you about team dynamics and working in a group, but does anyone ever actually learn these things? No. What you do learn about is how to hate the guts of a formerly harmless, innocuous group of classmates because you're stuck doing 80% of the work the night before, throwing together a half-assed arrangement of random photos and captions on posterboard. Inevitably, at least one group member will be "sick" the day of the presentation, so the rest of you are left scrambling to fill the gap with something, and at the end of the day you earn a surprisingly better-than-passing grade which is not satisfying in the least.
Today's daily Kpop tidbit: A Brief History of Noh Min Woo.
He started out like this.
And then he became this.
Click to viewTo sum up, he began as the drummer for Korean metal band, The TRAX (stage name: Rose), went into acting, and very occasionally posts videos of himself online to prove he can still bang with the best of them :D
Bonus: The TRAX began as a metal band, but let's just say they've moved on, LOL. I think I like this version of them better, tbqh. Of the four original members only two remain: Jay (lead vocal), and Jung Mo (guitar).
