the sweet smell of purgatory

so very happy about how all this is going... I guess it's just a recursive situation linked directly to college. Exams are comin' my way again. This time they hit when I'm the most tired, fed-up, antisocial, and downright crushed... It's nothing new for me, it's just that everything's falling apart around me, and through all the worries and problems I've got so far, now I have to worry about friggin exams too... you gotta love life's tendency to stomp you when you're down like a half-dead frog being run over by a truck. I guess I should've gotten used to it by now, but no... you never get used to the series of sledgehammers life hits you with... I've read something in a book written by Haruki Murakami, that stuck with me. I think it went something like "Stop pitying yourself... only morons do that.". I've tried to live by that sentence ever since, and it's proving more difficult than I've expected... There are times when I just feel like going "This is not fair! Why the fuck is this happening?" but I realize the futility of that question, and just clench my teeth and move on. While typing this thing out, I just feel like I'm saying the same thing over and over again, and it also feels like I'm saying the same thing over and over again throughout this whole bleeding blog... but who cares ? I'm whining and bitching about shit that happens to me, and things I feel on a fuckin' web page, 'cause everybody else is too busy running around and laming and either working or doing nothing in particular and I find myself being left behind with the acrid smell of purgatory floating in my head... I guess that's just life on living...
