So here's my mini rant/lament about my life right now, presented in an easy-to-read bulleted format so you can feel bad for me more easily.
>My sleep schedule is completely boned. I wake up at 2 or 3 in the afternoon unless I make a massive effort. This has resulted in me missing more and more classes over the semester (even though I typically never miss class).
>On the subject of sleep: Even after being awake for 18+hours, I have trouble getting to sleep. When I do sleep, I sleep for around 9 hours. Despite all this, I get random spells of fatigue during the day.
>College has kind of sucked. I've always been really smart, had excellent SAT scores, great High School GPA, and for the most part feel like I've excelled academically in college. The trouble is, I've spent the whole year hating school; it's a big business school full of frat boys and rich kids. I'm an English Major, am not into the frat scene too much, and hate the hugeness of the university.
>I've always been in great shape, I lift, I run, etc. I still stay in shape, but, post high school, I have no sports to apply that too. You'd be surprised how down this gets me.
>I'm pretty sure I have some kind of virus, but I'm not sure what. I feel woozy and feverish and random times, even though I'm otherwise very healthy (great diet, exercise, etc).
>Videogames, Reading, Writing, Working Out...I don't really enjoy any of my typically favorite past times. I have no real explanation for this. I just have trouble focusing my attention on anything.
>My bank completely boned me. They had to issue a bunch of new credit/debit cards (some breach or something), mine being one of them. They forgot to send me my new pin number. It will be at LEAST 1-2 weeks. So I haven't been able to pay my bills; my bank account is getting its ass beat with service fees. I'm about to head home for the summer and am in between jobs. I'm going to end up in the negative any day now, and there is literally NO way for me to get money...I've pretty much already sold all the games that are worth anything.
Besides that, I have NO way to access my money. The closest branch of my bank is quite far away; I don't have a car on campus. I rely on direct deposit or my parents (at the branch back home) to make deposits for me. Without my card, I'm boned; for some reason transfers to Paypal aren't even working (voiding any chance of paying my cell phone bill).
>My roommate is an uptight douche who I've dealt with in a civil, detached attitude all year long. The thing is, recently he's decided to hate me. Claims I steal his stuff. Locks up everything (including his shampoo) in a safe. He's a materialistic, arrogant snob with a multi-millionaire father who looks down on me for being relatively aescetic and liberal arts oriented. It wouldn't bother me much, but somehow having the person you LIVE WITH look down on you for no other reason than they're narrow minded, self centered, and biased definitely gets you down. He's one of those guys with zero personality; dresses gangster, only calls girls 'bitches', thinks he's the shit but is in fact a shallow loser.
>I still haven't beaten Ninja Turtles for NES
>Normally I love writing. Stories, plays, editorials, whatever; I write more than I game if I'm in the right mood. Lately I've been brain dead. Can't write a thing. It's usually one of my main vices when I feel down, and now I can't even do that.
That's my general rant about the downward spiral my life has been taking, without getting into to much exhaustive personal detail. Don't really know why I posted this, guess I just figured a rant plus some support from you guys would cheer me up some. Thanks for taking the time to read it.
Crusty VGchartz old timer who sporadically returns & posts. Let's debate nebulous shit and expand our perpectives. Or whatever.
