Coming in at a swift "Nobody is stunned by this," I've completely decided to dodge grad school for Library and Information Sciences.

I got nothing against it, but with a civil service job at the University of Illinois library, articles getting published in Shonen Jump, editing manga for DrMaster, and working on my own stories/comix, there just

You need to see the movie that frame is from.

It feels awesome.

It's amazing, and thanks for the congrats...

Better at 29 than 92, right?

Go for it, Rockstar.
I just happen to have everything in my life falling nicely into place
