Holiday Blues

[Sorcerer386]

I really want to thank everyone for their replies. It just makes me feel good to get so many replies, even though they're not exactly on the best of topics. I think the thing that's bumming me out is, looking back at the past year or two, I've lost a lot of people in my life. Not lost like died...they're just gone. Even the people who I barely knew...for example, this semester I met a couple of great people at school. Of course, I had at least one class with each of them because I don't live on campus and that's the only way I meet people. Well, I was standing outside with two of them after our last class, and one of them had to leave. So, I said, "See ya later," then turned to the girl I was with and said, "Actually, no, we probably won't see him again." My assistant manager, the one who promoted me at work and whom I have become kind of close to, has put in her two weeks notice. Plus, I lost a lot of other friends. The strange thing is I've never been nearly this needy in my life. I've always been kind of a loner and have liked it that way.

I feel silly by knowing that a lot of people have it so much worse than I do. I am especially sorry for sara1998. While a couple of little pieces of my life have faded, your whole life has been skewed. I feel so bad for you.

Thank you everyone for the graduation wishes. Law school was always in my future, and now it's in limbo. So, I'm just nervous about what I am going to do if I don't go to law school. A communications degree really isn't worth that much these days, or so it seems to me. But, I want to thank everyone one more time. I'll try to get my chin up and stop this self-pitying nonsense.
