[7] Keeping class sizes down

Thanks to everyone that commented on the last comic! :D Really appreciate it.

The long haired girl with the headband appears for the second time. She was actually physically based on a friend I met in university who had incredibly long hair. She didn't wear a headband though, I just added it to set her apart. I hadn't meant for her to be a regular character on RT but she ended up becoming The Blonde. Might I stress again that it's all a physical inspiration? ^^;;; Because the real girl doesn't have violent tendencies as The Blonde later does. She was quite nice, friendly, and one of the first person I met in university who was willing to joke around in a silly way.

In high school, there was a teacher with an accent so thick, I couldn't understand what he was saying. Luckily for me, I wasn't in his class.

The comic did appear in one of the campus-wide newspapers. Some people I knew in university really liked them (either that or they're being really nice.) One of the editors at one point told me I got a 100 hits on my section of their site. I nodded and said cool but thinking back to it, I wasn't sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing. Was 100 hits a lot to them? Who knows.

Later on at the end of the year, when they asked about what they could have done to improve the newspaper, I got nervous and talked about the comic size. I guess I came off too critical because the editor got really defensive and seemed upset. To this day, I feel really guilty when I think about it.

It's 2:40 AM~ Two more RT comics when I wake up!
