When I study, I need peace and quiet. Actually, I also need flash cards, highlighters, pens in an assortment of colors, and note paper, but then again I'm from the dinosaur era of the 90's.
People study from their phones now, right? It's not just Melanie...?
Text version of today's comic for screen readers
Panel 1: Andrea has a slightly troubled expression as she types on her laptop. Behind her, Melanie and Kay are playing a loud, music-blasting dance video game while Mr. Sprinkles tries to hit the power button on the game console. It's hard to say if he dislikes their fun or the music, but he wants it off.
Sound FX: "BA-BAM Ding-a-ling Ding-a-ling Ding Ding Ding Ding"
Panel 2: Andrea has a slightly troubled expression as she scrolls on her laptop. Melanie is at the table beside Andrea, sipping on a smoothie as she happily looks at her phone. Behind them it's revealed they're now at a smoothie shop that's busy with people and chatter. Mr. Sprinkles makes an appearance behind the counter, slowly pushing a drink towards the edge.
Sound FX: "[music notes above], Chatter Chatter Chatter, Scroll Scroll, Sluurpp, Tap, Puush...."
Panel 3: Andrea finally looks up from her laptop with an annoyed expression on her face. Andrea's sitting at a picnic table at the park, while Melanie is bouncing a soccer ball on her knee. Mr. Sprinkles' head suddenly pops out from a tree behind them, upside down with a glare towards Melanie.
Melanie: "What are you talking about, Andrea? I finished that while we had smoothies!"
