fucking fantastic.

awesome! i'm getting sick! hell yeah!!

this couldn't possibly have worse timing. just when i need to be most productive on my huge fucking paper. i feel like shit. full body malaise. bagh! fucking pissbuckets! i must've really been a dick because karma has been biting me in the ass. every fucking thing is going wrong lately, and that's not just me overreacting. i'm pretty sure i bombed the exams i studied for a week straight.
i somehow LOST my fucking paper word.doc for the 4.5 page paper i wrote that was due today. it just fucking disappeared from my comp. i searched temp files, recycling bin, recent dloads, recovered files, everywhere. i even went to ITS. the shit just disappeared from my computer, and i KNOW i saved multiple times. i'm afraid i rewrote over the file or something, i don't know, but regardless i'm going to have to rewrite that for a significant deduction on my score.
my fucking bike tires won't stay inflated. and when i tried to take the bus to class today, it definitely never showed up even though i was out there 8 minutes before and 15 minutes after the net said it was supposed to show.
and now i'm getting sick and feeling like shit in the midst of writing this huge fucking paper (which i'm not nearly as far on as i should be). fucking fantastic. and sure, i shouldn't be typing this right now. but i've been reading/planning all night and my brain needs a fucking break. shit sucks and i can't wait for next week, so i can sit around and do nothing for 5 days.
also, this sickness is terribly, terribly timed because i'm supposed to have a tissue brush bronchoscopy in 4 weeks for the research study i'm participating in. it's the last date they have available until the spring. it pays $1300 for completion. but i'm not allowed to be sick for 6 weeks before the bronch because it puts me at an inordinately high risk of getting pneumonia. and even if i wanted to take the risk, they wouldn't let me.
blargh!

Def shitty dude I've had weeks like that where nothing works out right. When I write a paper though I always email it to myself so I have another copy on the web [it's saved me a few times from the hell you're in]. It always gets worse before it gets better man just imagine yourself flipping burgers and that's all the motivation you'll need to stay in school Just keep persisting - hope you get better.

Hey, just remember to keep yourself above the stress. By stressing you're only going to continue to impact your grades negatively. Sort priorities and focus on the most important task. Whether the task is a paper, school in general, getting over sickness, or staying level-headed.
My procrastination leaves me in some tough time-limited situations. But in the end, optimism has lead me to the end each time. It's the moments that we let the stress take over that we lose our grips.
My advice would be to finish your essay and then focus on getting better. No sense in working twice as hard through illness for half the product, ya know? I've always noticed that even if immediate grades suffer, it's much better to take it easy for a couple days to get better than to drag on for a week without taking care of yourself. Then all your work for the week+ that you are sick gets fucked up, instead of only those few days.
... Now I need to get on top of MY homework.... Damn you college.... You better be worth it!

Hopefully your illness will abate soon. The semester is in the home stretch now, so focus your energies and kick ass coming out of it.
If you want some inspiration to study, go hang out in the glass box downstairs at he undergrad. I'm sure the asian guys that live there won't mind

AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww, life is tough isn't it?
Just realize how trivial your moaning and whining is in comparison to many people in the world. They're tryin to find food and water while you bitch about your paper
"My bike tires won't stay inflated!!!!!!" while you say that someone is getting chemo for their cancer. Realize how stupid your bitching sounds. Brush it off, it's no biggie. Good luck dudeskee

That's easier said than done. Sure, it's easy to say "YOu don't have have it HALF as bad as ____", but when one is caught in some sort of rut (emotional, financial, physical, scholastic, etc.), it's really the most important thing to us. Yes, in a perfect world, no one would focus on their own problems because they would be out trying to fix everyone else's. But in THIS world, when WE are unhappy, it makes our lives difficult. And if there's something I've learned through my psychedelic rides, it's that when the ego (we) are threatened, it is ALL that matters. All other problems go out the door.
So take it easy on the guy, huh?

I look at it as, don't stress yourself over trivial crap. The stress alone isn't worth it, and, afterall, the problems are trivial. It does suck to be sick though, most definitely.

the extent to which it is trivial is extremely subjective. believe it or not, i see my possibly flunking major classes as having a very great significance.
