It's the end of the world as we know it,

I feel fine.:P

By the end of the day tomorrow, I'll have had a grand total of four classes this week. That's four out of... 14? Ish? I <3 class cancellations.

So, pardon me for being better suited for high school melodrama than real life, but here goes. I've been lucky enough to not have drama of my own since about New Years (a byproduct of not ever talking to anyone new, I suppose), but I often counsel my friends on their problems. I love it, actually. I'm pretty much a personal psychologist, and I wouldn't have it any other way. Tonight I was thinking about what drama really is, or more specifically, what qualifies as a "problem." Obviously, compulsively cutting yourself is a problem. Depression is a problem. But I think that some of this teenage drama counts too, and people shouldn't keep from talking about it because it sounds stupid. Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to imply that losing a class election is as bad as having a severe neurological disease. Far from it. I'm just saying that something like... being dumped by your significant other, who proceeds to ignore you for months on end because they don't want to deal with you... is worthy of discussion.

Heehee. Bitterness is fun. However, I've adopted Ben's "Being sad sucks, I don't think I'll do it anymore" attitude. Hopefully that works out neatly.:P

yeah, being sad does suck. but sometimes its hard to just not be sad anymore. reminds me of when i was so depressed in college i couldn't get out of bed and mom was like, "why don't you snap out of it?" i was like, "gee, thanks mom, i hadn't thought of that before!" by the way -- i'm liking your new blog look, but your link to me is busted.
