Drawding 

Starving, but for water.
I am drawding right now.

AP Studio Art Drawing 

A high school course from hell that hosts students who say "hey, I'm good at art, why not?", and immediately turns them into a pretentious art hoes who at the same time hate art. They didn't know what they signed up for, or else they wouldn'tve done it in the first place! Eight months, 24 pieces of art --12 breadth and 12 concentrations--, countless people saying that their art is terrible and that they should just give up, 0 souls remain. Catch 'em in the halls with a bigass portfolio, wearing mustard yellow, permanent bags under their eyes and milk and honey in hand.

Students include:

1) the "re-starter" who starts their concentration over 10 times, and only has their first piece done in March. They're "fiiiiiiiiine".

2) the "truly 2D": wisely chooses to do photography, digital art, or anything that isn't drawing. See how they finish everything a week or two early and actually stay on the in-class deadlines while everyone else is suffering.
3) the "procrastinator": hasn't brought their work home in days... maybe weeks. 3 all-nighters, 4 gallons of coffee and 5 mental breakdowns during submission week before they just make the deadline with 10 minutes to spare.
4) the "one who can't handle": Just thinks about stress and how it's going to make them stressed is already stressing them along with every person who has to hear them stress about stressing. Cries 3x a day.
5) the "one who tried to switch out... several times": why are they taking AP art? They don't even know.
Student 1: "Yo how's your concentration going AP Studio Art Drawing?"
Student 2: "Not bad, I've got 5/12"
Student 1: "...But submission is in 3 days..."
Student 2: "Yup! and so is my funeral."

Drawing on a Mustache 

When a beautiful woman alters her face in a cute, goofy or otherwise wacky way by "pulling a face" (crossing her eyes, sticking out her tongue, waggling her ears, etc). Sometimes it's an awkward moment. Sometimes it's a romantic moment. sometimes it's both. Regardless, it's adorable.

Although it can momentarily interfere with her attractiveness, it does not in any way diminish it. In many ways it may even accentuate it. Thank you to Esky.
Jack: "hey babe - you're looking hot today."
Jill: "...Bllpffft" (pulls a face - drawing on a mustache)
Jack: “such a babe.”

British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murderer used a serrated blade.
