"Most people don't even talk about it let alone care. I cannot fathom a life without the arts. By that same token, most of my friends cannot fathom why I enjoy going to art exhibitions or watching foreign art house films. For many, it's really a waste of money and time; precious time better off spent thinking of ways to make money. Unless of course it's free..."

it's been a sucky few days. besides the gig at the tavern and my friend invading my room one night to hang out, it's been a real chore just to even get through the day (and night). what with all the impending deadlines and exams looming right there in front of me, not even around the corner. i see it all too clearly. and i know the guilt that follows all too well. i gotta really get my act together if i want to avoid that which haunts me, and threatens to haunt me even more.
am currently listening to the get up kids on my headphones plugged into the computer. trying to clear my head and relax a little before i get down to my philosophy essay yet again. stayed up most of last night in a quite futile attempt to get the better part of my readings done. but i did do quite a lot of it and understand quite a bit more than i did previously. so i guess that's better than nothing.
everything is always "better than nothing". but "better than nothing" is always never enough.
another sunday morning. another day shot to hell. another day to waste.
i'm going to be 22 soon.
it's been a sucky few days.
