I am weakening. It is a slow process but eventually it will
consume me. I continually overestimate myself, later realizing
that I am a fool, but too late to remove the stress. Why did I do
it this semester? Why did I take all these classes? Why did
I decide to start a whole new club and stay in the five or six that I
am already in? It's ruining the things that are really important.My happiness is gone. I am now officially depressed. I have
relatively few happy moments and they are all very brief. Almost
all day of every day I am doing something that is concerned with
keeping an A in a class or participating in a club to boost my
resume. Think carefully about what I have not listed. There
must be a threshold that I have already passed, where no matter where I
apply I will get the job with the number of clubs and offices I
hold. Do I need to continue this? Do I need to torture my
body and mind over and over every single day as I slave over classes
that push the limits of my intelligence? Do I need to deal with
the foolish Russian women and their uberauthoritarian paper
grading? I want my joy back. I would rather have it back
and have to work at McDonald's forever than to stay this way...but I
can't. Myself won't let me fail. No matter how hard I try
to procrastinate and give myself some free time, I always end up
filling whatever time I get with something else I "need" to do. I
am a fool and a jerk, especially since I am not the only one who is
being affected by my poor mood.He is sad, of course. Seeing my delicate mental state he becomes
concerned. I am snappy, depressed, made to cry easily, and not as
interested in sex as I usually am. I've almost lost my will to be
intimate. I just want to go to sleep most nights so that the next
day can come faster and be over faster. The more I sleep, the
less I have to be awake to my self-created nightmare. I am
ruining my relationship with him, at least in my eyes. He is
still gently comforting me and sticking by my side, but I don't
understand why. I suppose I would do the same for him, though, so
I shouldn't be suprised. However, we have more slight
disagreements than we did before and now we only have sex about 3 times
a week instead of daily. I hope I can make it to the end of this
semester before I have some kind of meltdown for lack of it. I
wish I could just be happy. I wish I was an art major. I
wish I hadn't done what I did, but now it is done. I must live
with it. I must continue past it and remember that it is only for
a semester, and then the new semester will start and I can pick fewer
classes and a less challenging schedule. Also, by then, the DDR
Club will not require my constant attention to stay afloat, so I will
have more time for him and us.Speaking of the DDR Club, it is going well. We have many members
and are starting to talk about tournaments and such. It is really
exciting to see how many members show up to each meeting and how fun it
is getting. Unfortunately, the only thing I don't like is that
without me, the club would fall apart. It puts a lot of pressure
on me in that respect, but I think it is worth it. I really enjoy
it so far and can't wait until next year when we are well established
and can do even more cool stuff!Other than that, let me give everyone a heads-up on my status with the
ladies. I am done with all my prospectives except for one because
they have disappointed me in one way or another. The one that I
am still interested in is a beautiful Chinese girl. She is
amazingly attractive and amazingly intelligent. We keep bumping
into one another on the way to classes and two days ago she asked if I
would like to help her with her new club teaching underprivileged
children sciency stuff through cheap, fun activities. I of course
said yes, while not entirely for humanitarian purposes. I am
pleased to be helping the children, but I am also pleased to be
spending more time in a way that will make me look better to this hott
bisexual that I have met. We will see how this goes and I will
try and update as the situation works itself out.Well, that is it for me today. I probably won't post until next
Saturday, as Saturdays are the only days where I have time to even
think about it. I haven't even been able to play WoW for like 2
weeks. Well, overall, I am depressed, but I know it is temporary
and what is causing it, so I am not truly depressed as I was in high
school. Do not be alarmed, simply wish me good luck.

Yeah, good luck. I'm usually under this kind of nasty poetic impression that my mere presence is what will gain me admiration or interest from people I myself am interested in. It's quite burdening, sometimes. Alas, I realize that actually putting yourself out there with someone is way more an impression than just being there. Damn unrealistic thoughts.
Your effort is amazing.
i know what you mean , last year was a killer , thanks to the damn myspace professor grading i looked at my teachers and saw that it was going to be rediculous to keep my 3.5 so that brought me down some, i was president of the Circle K club that was going so slowly becuase people only went there as a social thing and didn't want to help with the community as we were supposed to and when a convention came up that we need to raise money for , no one showed up except my two loyal friends and then when the time was comming close for the convention it just so happend that we only had enough to pay for ...3 haha so the 15 or so members that were all hoping to go that didn't help out were pissed and it made me look bad on top of being in 3 other clubs that i was helping out with i still made time for that and to keep my grades up. but in doing all of this at once, i learned that it was possible to keep up your own spirt and keep striving to do it, and i wasn't as lucky as you to have a person that will be by my side, haha and don't even get my started about DDR club....they were just.....haha well they wouldn't do much without me haha i mean they honestly didn't even know how to take attendence or vote for officers or ne thing....it was just ...bad haha .. but i know you can really make it though this , you have a great and cheerful personality as in the words of one of my most favorite chefs. "one difficult challange will only be replaced by another that is even harder" soo good luck to you , and go on MSN more or something haha or message rather then poke me
have a good one hun
I think it's a crazy people thing. Over-scheduled and overworked. It happens to me and I'm only a Freshmen in highschool. Best of luck to you Katie. You're doing a fabulous job with the DDR club.
