5.5... I'm trying to convince Syzygyish to come despite his mother whom he doesn't seem to get along with anyway, trying to convince Username88 not to kill himself and trying to convince MADDuck to hurry up! :D

5.5! I might have fifth and sixth people in Eric_C and what's-his-name who posted in my thread! But I still feel depressed and I need to organize my stuff... that's what's keeping me down! Hating to organize my stuff but knowing I have to!

0. I really can't do this this year. For whatever reason, essays are entirely beyond me; it's not that I don't understand them (though that is part of the problem in some cases), it's that I just can't write them... I label the papers and then leave them blank and that's all I can do. "Just start with a couple sentences" doesn't work; I can't even start the first sentence. Taking out all the papers involved with it only overwhelm me more.

I have two essays due tomorrow; I can't afford to blow either of them off. One would mean an automatic F in the class; the other would be a 0 out of 100 in a class that automatically kicks anyone out who doesn't have a B- or above... I'm all ready at a B as it is, and that's only by luck and automatic rounding up (82.8; it counts as a B). The latter has to be at least 4 to 6 pages or "don't even consider bringing it in". If I can't write one page - one sentence even - how am I supposed to write 4? And I'm told "they're not going away. Just do it", which would be all fine and good, except I can't. Which is kinda the point.

I think perhaps tomorrow morning I'll go and talk to the guidance counselor... Which will suck, because it means swallowing my pride (he said last year that I wouldn't be able to keep up with the stress of the schoolwork; he was wrong then, but he's not now), and I'm really not so good at that. I don't mind admitting when I'm wrong, but I don't like living up to predictions of failure... And I really don't want to cry (especially right before class), but I'm sure I will; I'm crying at the drop of a hat again, which isn't appealing to me.

That doesn't write the papers though, and I'll still fail; even if they drop my classes, I'll still have to write essays, and I still won't be able to do them. Joyous.

Thanks. If you say so; yours is the only opinion that matters.

Poor love, I need not mention that I'd gently hold you if I could [and take away your pain if you'd allow me to]; distance, impossibility, your selfless behavior and all that. (You've accomplished far more than what should be expected of you; someone said the same thing to me, and she was right.)

Please don't.

There are some of us who are out here, and listening. . . if you ever want to talk about what makes a life that bad- that hard- there are places here, and people who care to know. . . you are not alone.

Take care of yourself, in a non mafia-related way. . . please?

Hurrah. Another person ignores the -10 to +10 range. As I've said before, people have given higher numbers than a -10 when their whole world is falling apart - giving a number that's way off the scale trivialises other peoples problems. If it's that bad, just use a -10.

Anyway, I'm going to say a 5. I still feel terrible, but I've been throwing myself into my photography and it takes my mind off stuff most of the time. I covered a newspaper launch party last night, which was fun. Got some pretty decent compositions, even when I was shooting from the hip. Must be an instinct thing. Pictures are looking even better now I've had a blast at them in photoshop. One of them I'm especially proud of - the girl in the foreground has a great natural smile. Not grinning at the camera like most of the idiots, just a good broad smile as she walked past. Hopefully that one will get printed... but I'm not crossing my fingers just yet. Either way, it's nice to have taken a photo I'm genuinely proud of.

There are no single, liberal , South Park-loving Aspie women in Wichita Falls. And there is only one NT woman in my entire college who is liberal and likes South Park, and she has a boyfriend.

So that means that all the women at my college who are single are NT, conservative, and hate South Park.
