But I have tried. Maybe not my best, but I did try to deliver on time. However, my academic involvement forbid that, and it was a tough choice juggling both school work and Project Me. But believe me, I did try but it apparently was no good enough. Inevitably, I chose studies over the Project. Be fair to me, at least. A student of course must put his schoolwork as his priority. And it is not as if my grades in my faculty tests have not suffered either. The comic was late; my schoolwork suffered. Gimme a break, yea?

I believe most readers out there are students too, so I need not emphasize my point further. Try imagining yourself in my shoes. Don’t try to pretend to know what I am going through, ‘course you don’t. The very bare minimum is to at least sprinkle some empathy, instead of trying to tell me how I should do my stuff. [ I really don’t mind guest arts at this moment, you know, at least try drawing a comic is different from talking to draw a comic, yea?]

I am totally amazed that you actually put up with all my crap for so long, but that’s what rants are all about- to release some steam and crap…yada yada.

Okay, now back to the part about the delay. I am terribly sorry for those rooting for Project Me since its birth, in particular Allan. I knew I broke my promise. But really, trust me, delays are really inevitable. While I could not mitigate any consequences possibly caused, or promise a timely comic only to break my promise yet again, I could reassure you that I’ll try my best to get my act together. I have no idea when the next comic will be up, but that is all I could offer for now. Ed’s supposed to come up with the story for the next one, but I won’t keep my hopes too high if I were you…*lol* =Þ

See guys, all of us are too caught up in our own lives, that at times, we became totally encompassed and forgot the important [and maybe minor] details. Whilst trying to strike a balance between schoolwork and project work, I can’t help but to show bias towards either of them, depending on time and mood.

Sorry folks. =|

I am not going to come out with the storyline for the next comic as it is rather impossible for my storyline to fit into the current theme and stuff. I really hope he can get the comic up by next week or so as I know you all would like to see the pace of the story pick up. Anyway, I'll be rather busy these few weeks due to the upcoming faculty tests and debates. Hope you don't mind my absence.

I'm not feeling well today so I guess I'll end my rant here, wishing one and all a Happy Lunar New Year!
