BMA115 Drawing, comic research, Really, really old people, 10 May

What if you were so old that everybody and everything you ever knew were long gone?  What if people used your life to mark the passage of time?  What if you got to live your life all over again?  Would you do the same things, over and over again, or try something new?  Would you be convinced that there was NOTHING new, no other ways of being and just be the most boring young person who ever lived?
