Some stonewash denim is tickling a man’s shins this morning as a local multimedia student heads off for the day.
After waking up at 9:38am to the harsh western Queensland sun blaring through the curtainless windows of his shoebox accommodation, Betoota College of Fine Arts student Finn Brayshaw was forced to consider his outfit choice for the day.
As a Bachelor of Media Arts student majoring in sculpture and design, Finn usually rolls into uni in a pair of carpenter pants splashed with the licks of paint from his most recent major body of work.
But with temps nudging close to 30 in Betoota today, Finn decided he’d gift his pasty white calves some rare time in the sun and whip out his John Cena length jorts.
Styled with a pair of black school loafers, and his grubbiest white singlet decorated with Betoota Bitter stains, Finn slipped on the shorts he crafted over Christmas with scissors and a pair of bootcut jeans he stole from his Dad’s closet.
Channelling the 13-time WWE Champion, ‘Mr Hustle Loyalty and Respect’ himself John Cena, Finn loaded his tote bag up with his MacBook Pro, a bag of microwavable mexican rice and his daily dream journal and headed off to study for the day.
“Cool shorts man!” exclaimed Finn’s local barista, as he whipped up a hojicha latte for his regular customer.
“I used to wear that kind thing when I was young too. Have you ever listened to the Nellyville album? I spose you probably don’t even know who Nelly is hey?”
