I am writing this in a hotel in Lanai, Hawaii! I actually colored all of this strip on the plane ride to Hawaii, as well. See what I do for you, dear readers. This also meant that the night before we left for our awesome vacation I totally put off packing in order to draw the lineart for this strip, because I wouldn’t be able to scan in at the hotel so it had to be drawn before we left so I could color it before Friday blah blah blah technical jargon.

ANYWAY! It should be pretty obvious from this strip that Chapel isn’t a huge Miley Cyrus fan, either. Interestingly, this was actually the very first strip where I established Chapel as being a Lady Gaga fan. I drew the original version of this strip about 2 years ago, and if I remember correctly, the inspiration came from hearing my mom sing Lady Gaga while unloading the dishwasher! Since I listen to music ALL THE TIME when I’m working, especially when I’m doing boring chores and need a motivating song, I included it in this strip.

What are your motivation songs? I may put up a playlist of my picks sometime, because I listen to a lot of music! See you next week!

I usally listen to Skrillex or Deadmau5 or something like that... XD 8/9/12 reply   The Call by Regina Spektor. Was in the second Narnia movie near the end and during the credits. Of course I had to download the whole album to get that one song on iTunes, UGH. Other songs are good dance music though. I like to dance. 6/23/12 reply   one of my motivation songs is 'don't stop believing' by Journey. Which i guess says a lot about my personality. 12/22/11 reply   Heh,this comic is great! :D As for what I usually listen to, its usually Michael Jackson, lol. I do like some pop, but my favorite genre is classic rock! XD 12/21/11 reply   uh... Emma? I think you might have forgotten to color chapel's right ponytail holder in the second panel....? No offence or anything...... just pointing it out.............. 12/19/11 reply   I usually listen to music while I do dishes too, since I also hate dishwashing. In my opinion, Miley Cyrus went straight downhill after she left Disney Channel, but what I REALLY can't stand is Lady Gaga and Justin Bieber. *shudders* I have to say, you put a lot of work into the background and all the dirty dishes. That would have driven me nuts. 12/19/11 reply   I listen to You'll Never Be Alone, the themesong to Wild Arms 2. It always makes me teary eyed. For action adventure writing I perfer Jam Project's GONG or Skill, or Super Driver from the Haruhi Suzumiya OST. 12/19/11 reply Those are great musical picks! I love reading about everyone's musical tastes. Also, I've heard that Haruhi Suzumiya is a good anime, but I've never seen any of it. Should I try watching it? 12/20/11 reply The light novels are better. Try downloading the fan-translations from the internet. Haruhi is great fun and I'm pretty sure you'll like it, knowing from what I know of your tastes. Stikibunn 12/23/11 reply   Hi! I like this strip! It's so funny! Great job! Katherine 12/18/11 reply Thanks so much! I had a lot of fun with it. 12/20/11 reply   I was singing a russian "Black cat (Черный кот)" by Bravo (Браво) all night long while writing my coursework an year ago :) //youtube link for the song /watch?v=ljbPsAfC2IA Me! 12/17/11 reply That's an awesome song! I've never listened to russian music before, but my dad and I blasted it in the hotel room in Hawaii! Thanks for linking to that. 12/20/11 reply   During the day, i lissien to AM talk radio shows, they are by far better to hear than any of the pop music these days. Although politics might be a bit much for you Miss Emma right now at your age. as for my music tastes, i have been into Celtic music, Jazz, classic rock, sound tracks, and a mix of others. 12/17/11 reply Interesting musical tastes! Talk radio shows are neat, but I don't listen to them an awful lot. 99% of the time I listen to music I'm working, so a talk show would distract me too much! 12/20/11 reply In what i do, i can listen and work at the same time. but cheer up, many of the talk shows put their daily shows out on mp3s podcasts for others to hear later. 12/24/11 reply I'm younger than emma and i love politics! And, I didn't think anything was on AM anymore.. Oh well... just britain then. 8/9/12 reply   ha ha................ My response to hearing Miley Cyrus or Bieber is putting my hands over my ears and screaming. LOUD. That gets a positive response called Changing The Station. Love it! 12/16/11 reply i don't really listen to pop. 12/18/11 reply YES!!!! another person who hasn't gotten caught up in the vortex of pop music yet... no offense to anyone but in my opinion pop music is ABSOLUTELY EVIL!!!! 12/19/11 reply Most of my friends listen to pop music, but I don't! Well, I listen to some jpop, but I don't think that really counts. 12/20/11 reply I've never heard jpop, but it really scares me that the Beatles were once pop music...... 12/20/11 reply hey, pop isn't SO bad...i listen to it some with my friend. 12/23/11 reply I know, I know......... only one of my friends loves it and she can't get enough of it so...... maybe I'm just pop-musiced out, even though I never liked it in the first place anyway. 12/23/11 reply ................not that there's anything wrong with it. 12/24/11 reply Oh and 'party in the USA' and 'born this way' rhyme... 1/1/12 reply I meant BEAVER instead of Bieber, sorry. Also, 'World Will Know' from Newsies is now PERPETUALLY STUCK IN MY HEAD. 5/31/12 reply
