Other People I know
Characters in here are partially based on the people I know. Their name, which may or may not be real, or modified, is in blue beside their picture, and a brief description is included. More will be released and put up on the site as time goes on.
The reason they are cartoons is that it didn't make much sense to put REAL photographs up, seeing as how that would take away from the somewhat incomplete nature of specific information on my site. In other words: I didn't want you to know EXACTLY what they look like.

Jim
It's me. You've seen the pic before. Don't act so surprised. To learn stuff about me, look under the "about me" section. If you don't want to, I'll go over some stuff.
Jim's just finishing his second year of mechanical engineering at The College. He spends most of his time hanging out in the OIEE (Ontario Instute for Electrical Engineers) room with his pals, and longs to work at his favorite robotics firm: ZSR (Zissner-Smythe Robotics)
He used to be on the A-V crew in high school, where he used to care what other people thought. Afterwards, he just let his nerdiness show through. |
"Jay"
Jay has been Jim's neighbour since the day Jim moved in (over 13 years ago), and has been good friends with Jim ever since. Jay is known for his somewhat accident-prone nature, making adventures with Jay quite... unpredictable. But one thing Jay has always been is there. Whenever Jim needed someone to talk to, Jay was just a fence away.
Jay was the one who first got everyone interesting in the OIEE, and now everyone hangs out in the room. |

"Chantal"
Once upon a time, long ago, Jim and Chantal used to date, but they came to the realization that they were better as friends, and decided to revert to that. Chantal's outgoingness causes her to speak her mind (sometimes a bit too often), and that usually leads to some interesting adventures.
Chantal's going to The College in the fall, but has expressed interesting in avoiding the OIEE room, as it smells like cat-pee-soaked couches and mouldy-food-fridges, among other reasons. |
"Adrian"
Adrian first met Jim through the A-V crew in high school. Since then, they've been through a lot. Though slightly younger in age (and much younger in appearance), Adrian has shown Jim to always be optimistic, and to not care what people think. Despite being so much like Jim, Adrian has an ability to attract women, hence earning him the occasional nickname: "Ladies' Boy".
Adrian also hangs out in OIEE with the others, and carpools with Jim to The College.

"Kyle"
Kyle knew Jay since long before Jim moved in, but moved out to the Boonies before really meeting Jim. He caught up with Jay at The College, and started hanging out in the OIEE room. Probably the only one of the gang who can do work in an oxygen-deprived environment, such as the OIEE room. |
"Steve"
Years of being surrounded by people who act like idiots has left Steve a bitter, sarcastic slacker. Now, hanging out in the IOEE room, Steve is still surrounded by the same kind of people, making him more bitter every day.

"Johnny"
Johnny works the late shift at a restaurant (usually the 4:30pm - 4:30am shift), which means he gets about 2 hours of sleep before he has to go in to class. Hence, he's developed the ability to sleep while standing up. He wears a College hat to block the light.
Johnny was more energetic when he was part of the A-V crew in high school, but now hangs out in OIEE with the others. |
