Sarah C. Anderson takes a funny look at what it's like to be a modern woman in her web-comic “Sarah's Scribbles.” Anderson graduated from the Maryland Institute College of Art in 2014, and publishes one semi-autobiographical comic every Wednesday and Saturday. She keeps a separate portfolio of non-cartoon illustrations here.

Totally! Except for the high place reacher one, in my case. Being a tall girl, my boyfriend and I are similar in height.
Load More Replies...I don't have a boyfriend, I do all those things by myself and now i'm stronger than all of our class boys
Is that mine? - he asked. Because she was wearing his sweater
Load More Replies...Love Love Love... Isn't it so funny how the truth is!!! You captured it! Great work!!!
All the white t shirts are either crop tops or see through and im just shopping like "all i wanted was an OPAQUE white tee..."
you really have to wonder who is wearing these things or what kind of bra they are wearing.
I made a decision/resolution to only wear my bras twice before washing only to discover my cousin had just made exactly the same resolution. They are much more comfortable clean, which I wasn't expecting.
Load More Replies...The problem is not so much the price but to find the right one. And when you get one,that he doesn't change his shape or colour or the way he fits you good. Frustrating.
Lol. That happens to me with everything. I basically just read and do nothing with my life
Unfortunately, not me. My eyes just close by themselves, even if the book is the most interesting in the whole history of literature. And it doesn't matter whether it's on paper, on a computer/phone/tablet screen or a kindle screen, it doesn't matter if it's illustrated or not either. When I lay down under my bedsheets, text just closes my eyes. I can't control it.
Wish that worked for me as I he trouble falling asleep. It'd be like a nice safe non-drug sleeping pill.
Load More Replies...Its even worse when you have a favorite author and you've just finished his latest book and you know the next one won't be out FOR AGES!!
IKR! I just finished a book in a series and now i have to wait a whole year for the next one
Load More Replies...This is a pretty sarcastic comic, and its totally true, puberty we get boobs. Boobs cause enough problems and then on top of it all alot of us have painful periods its not all fun and beautiful.
It really is interesting how most of us, eagerly looked forward to puberty and wished for our period to come. And then it was exactly as illustrated.
Couldn't have said it better. Every pre-pubescent needs to see this.
Definitely me!! The problem is that once I get up I can't go back to sleep. And that sucks!!!
So true. If I go off my property I have to be wearing a bra and clothes. When I get home the first thing I do is to take off the clothes and the bra, and put on something comfy. I love being at home. No bra, comfy clothes, no judgment. AAaaahhhhh
Seriously we need to show this to all people obsessed with social media!
Why do they think we want to know what they had for lunch? And what idiot decided to start taking pictures of their food? This is one of MANY reasons that I rarely go on social media.
Nope.. Never miserable.. alone.. or sad.. or filled with regret. HAPPIER with no kids to think of.. or school fees to worry.
some people chose to not be in a relationship cus they don't want to get hurt or have to put all the'r time into caring for kids. :>
I had a doctor once tell me that if I were to have a baby my life would be so much better, my depression would go away, my anxiety would ease up......... When I told him i didn't want kids at all, in fact I wished I could have my 'tubes tied', he started lecturing me on how it was my duty to have a kid... Let's just say that's the last time I ever went to him.
Did you literally punch him. I would have sued even. Like f**k that guy. Also that's a lie. My depression and anxiety is worse.
Load More Replies...the only problem here is there'd be nobody to say the first line in the last panel. Your siblings are dead, your friends are dead, you have no spouse and no children. Nobody even cares you're alive.
I'm always nervous in public, of running into someone I haven'ts een in years! Lol I've gained 40 pounds since high school...pretty embarrassing...
I've actually run into a few people who bullied me to the point where I hurt myself and wanted to die. They acted like this, like they were my friend. I flat out told them what they did to me in highschool. One girl started sobbing and hugged me tightly, apologizing profusely for putting me through that. I ended up forgiving her and we became friends for a while before she moved.
Me age 13: I hate people... Stay away from me you creep. Me now: I still hate people
Wait,this is relatable to someone that I know.... Oh yeah... It's me
im fine with only having a few friends. too many people is exausting
At week 4 I imagine the uterus saying "here we go!" In Mario's voice haha :p
OK, so this was once my life. But I did a lot of diet micromanagement and it got better this will work.for some, but not all. Avoiding meat and dairy with hormones, soy (including lecithin), taking more magnesium, potassium, calcium, and sodium before the period starts, and watching iodine levels makes the actual period a walk in a park. A micromanaged walk in the park, but that's better than the alternative. Also of note: iodine and iron :)
I used to have severe painful symptoms. Debilitating bad. What did I do? Change my diet. Go vegan. Eat healthier. Where I used to be and where I am now... It's like daaaamn! Night and day. Diet and lifestyle is important. No joke.
So me....It all started when I was 5 and missed a school field trip, because I couldn't find my red socks.
You weren't focused in the book and your thoughts wandered somewhere else...
Load More Replies...Hwppens with audio books too takes me ages to listen to a whole book.
Doesn't have to be hormonal though, depression can happen to anyone, at any time, and be seemingly without reason.
When you realize the girl part is literally you and your friends.... And you're not ashamed one bit :)
When person touches me - *punch* Me: Stay away of my personal space!
I do like touch but only things like a hug or briefly holding my hand and ONLY from close friends. Anybody else - NO!
Load More Replies...When I wear high heels everyone within 6 ft of me is in serious danger.
why did you comment the same thing on 2 comics? :/ thats kinda stuped
I learned to ask right away. " Do you want help or are you just venting?" Men that question will save you alot of hassle.
Yes you can. Either you can something about or you can't. If you can, then do. If you can't then why let it ruin your mood?..
Load More Replies...How can the bunny just say that? It's a bit harder than that, but you can change your additive over time:).
the same feeling when somebody waves at your direction but you don't know if they are waving at you or not...
Why are there stereotypes that make us seem like we can't do anything "as well or better" than men? Do you have to carry a human child for 9 - 10 months? Bleed and deal with cramps for a week every month of every year for around 40 years? Do you have to deal with (some) men who are just total perverts because they think they can get away with it since you're a "girl?" As Queen Elizabeth I once said, "I may have the body of a week and feeble woman, but I have the heart and stomach of a king, and a king of England too." I'm just so sick of all the c**p flying around that men are and always will be better at everything. You might say, "People saying that men are better," but what you don't realize is that IT'S THERE IN EVERYDAY LIFE. You need to wake up and look around.
I feel like the 90s weren't that long ago, let alone anything this century!
mines the getting cozy in bed THATS when i need a pee mostly , but the other times are just a sometimes😅😅😅😅
the more you wash it, the sooner it will become greasy. Wean it off by washing less frequently, it can take up to couple of months, but it pays off in the end :)
Load More Replies...Maybe bc it isn't her. She is sarcasticly making fun of people who take a ton of selfies.. Brains are cool
Load More Replies...This is my one greatest strength: procrastinating by being productive XD
Me everytime i straighten my hair, which is only once every 6 months haha
I show my friend a drawing. "I know it's bad but ehh..." She'll reply. "It's alright, not your best, but..." Then someone will come over and
say, "Oh, can I see?" "Ooh, ooh, can I see it?" Me," WHY IS EVERYONE SO INVESTED IN MY LIFE ALL OF A SUDDEN????"
Load More Replies...I have a friend that keeps thinking that when she misses her period. Hear it from her so many times that I have begun to tell her she is pregnant.
Perhaps you ought to educate her about birth control.
Load More Replies...when i was 13 my mom told me about getting pregnant from boys and the next day my crush kiss me in the lips and i was sooooo scared i just run away from him and i thought i did something really bad and now i was pregnant.
I walk into the bathroom before i pull out my gum in a public place. ;)
Load More Replies...better break the phone than let others' hand have it.. unreasonable.. very me :D
some people dont like other people touching and looking through their phone. its me
Load More Replies...i can never relate to a lot of comics because i live in Florida... it's great

This is the best best thing I have seen in a really long time... Absolutely love it
This is like my life summed up, kinda looked like ponyo though which is cool
