AAaaaaaahhhhh!!
I'm normally a fairly optimistic and easy going kind of guy. But right now, I'm panicking. I really am. See I'm even hyperventilating.
Okay, I'm not. But at least I'm closer to panicking than I've been in a long time. Longer than I can remember, in fact. Because, you see, life is looking real grim for me at this point.
Show Rest of Post
Exhibit A: Today is March 26th. As all of you UofCers know, our bills are due today. There is no sight of money amounting to anything near what we're supposed to pay. My dad's off on business in Europe, and my mom is virtually incommunicado in Tokyo. So my bill will go unpaid. I'll be on hold, which means no adding or dropping classes. This is Bad. Very Bad.
Exhibit B: I have no major. I must graduate in 4 quarters. This is Bad. Very Bad.
Exhibit C: C as in the grade I got in Information Theory. I just barely, and I mean barely, managed to get a B average for Winter quarter. This basically confirms the sneaking suspicion I've had: I'm one of those dumb people that the admissions office accidentally let though. This is Bad. So bad, it's beyond very bad. And by beyond, I mean "so much badder than bad or very bad that I might have to use a different word, other than bad or a variation thereof".
Exhibit D: I went to bed a little after 4am. I got up, with a phone call, a little before 7am. I haven't gone back to bed. Me, not able to sleep = very bad. To make matters worse, I'm thinking of taking a shower. Yeah, now you know how bad things are.
So, my dear marmots and squirrels, carrots and cabbages, now you see what horrendous calamities afflict Ryo's fragile little world. I mean, yeah, so things aren't that bad. I'm still alive, I have food oat meal, I have a bed couch to sleep on, I'm still in school, it's still theoretically possible for me to graduate when I'm supposed to (nevermind that that's already a few years behind schedule, but we'll set that aside for now), and my future is just as grim as it was a few years ago. I should be happy I don't have AIDS, cancer, ebola, small pox, etc. At least not that I know...
Now I shall take a shower. I will come out clean and refreshed, knowing that all my troubles... are exactly where I left them. At least I'll smell a little less bad. Because people obviously care about that. People like... (looks around) well... hm.

It'll all turn out alright. It has to, because otherwise I'd be wrong, and I'm never wrong. See, that's flawless logic there, that is. Stop panicking and enjoy the rest of your break!
