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

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.

one of my motivation songs is 'don't stop believing' by Journey. Which i guess says a lot about my personality.

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

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.

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.

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.

I was singing a russian "Black cat (Черный кот)" by Bravo (Браво) all night long while writing my coursework an year ago :)

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.

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.

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.
