This is really starting to be a great day. And by great, I mean terrible.
I was awoken by my roommate 3 hours prior to when I wanted to wake up

I am going to fail this Marketing test
I just got an email telling me that my school doesn’t want me as an RA
Oh, and the time of smiling and playing PR is over. Drafting up an email to the...
I was supposed to get an extra 3 hours of sleep. I now only got 6 hours, and I have a test to take today. Why am I up so fucking early? Because my roommate’s alarm clock went off for 5 minutes before he woke up. Guess what he’s doing now…sleeping again.

Someone today said I looked different. So I asked...
Excuse me?
First off, I wasn’t even that happy this morning.
Second off, I was far happier two weeks prior when we last had class.
And lastly, you cannot judge my state of mind based off of how I look, nor do I appreciate your belief that you somehow know when I am happier one day and not the next.

fuckyeahexistentialism:
THE HEDGEHOG’S DILEMMA, OR SOMETIMES THE PORCUPINE DILEMMA, IS AN ANALOGY ABOUT THE CHALLENGES OF HUMAN INTIMACY. IT DESCRIBES A SITUATION IN WHICH A GROUP OF HEDGEHOGS ALL SEEK TO BECOME CLOSE TO ONE ANOTHER IN ORDER TO SHARE THEIR HEAT DURING COLD WEATHER.

Sartre just made me realize why I am able to ask myself such seemingly depressing questions to which no answer exists without becoming depressed, cruel and broken.
I used to believe that the questions “What does our existence mean?” and “Is Life worth living?” were one and the same. It led me quite obviously to a terrible place.
I have banished the latter question from my...

This will be a very incoherent piece of writing, as my thoughts at the moment are flooding in me at once. Tears began to swell in my eyes only minutes ago from the rushing feeling of ambiguity. New questions are being raised and they are creating tension - a nausea.
What is reality? For all I know, everything that I see here does not exist. What does my brain see? I know there is so much out of...
