This is a bit whiney...

I made a simple comment today. One that so many of us in the hall make when we are stressed or avoiding work or pretty much think we're screwed on a project or something.

"I fail at life."

We usually laugh it off or support each other, or something else like that, but we never really do much about it. I made this comment because of several reasons. I have a French paper due tomorrow, which always stresses me out, I have a ton of other stuff happening in my life that I don't really care to share with everybody because they would not understand, and I really just want to get this next week and a half over with.

So yeah...I fail at life. One girl looks at me as she is slumped on her bed looking at her computer downloading a game and she pretty much yells at me; "shut-up. You don't even know the beginning of failing. You have an A in chemistry and I have nothing near it..."

Since when did the term 'life' come to mean 'academics'? I guess I don't really understand. Yes we are in college to study, but we also live here and living involves having fun. There is more to life than school. There is more to life than what seems on the outside. Sometimes people don't share everything that they are feeling and in conclusion ou have no right to honestly judge if someone else is failing at life.
