A three panel, full color comic. The first panel is labeled "The bar for accomplishments in 2015." In it, Emily, with long brown hair and oval glasses, stands in front of a CRT monitor in an art gallery. The monitor is showing a game start screen, and a controller is plugged in nearby. Emily motions to the monitor and says, "For my BFA thesis project, I've created a game that explores my struggles with depression and anxiety. An entire year of work and research!" The second panel is labeled "The bar for accomplishments now." In it, Emily, with her current short hair and rectangular glasses, gleefully pops the cork on a bottle of wine, yelling over her shoulder "I GOT THE CORK OUT OF THE WINE BOTTLE WITHOUT DESTROYING IT!" to Em, who gives a silent thumbs up in response. In the third panel, Emily, still in present day, sits on a couch, now holding a glass on wine, looking directly at the viewer. "Look I know I've done this joke before but I'm really excited about the wine, ok," she says.

Thanks as always for reading!
