i cannot tell a lie

I woke up today early and depressed. Not only am I under a tremendous amount of school-related stress, I'm also just plain sad. Just sadsadsad. Now, what I'm sad about - well, that's tricky. And by tricky, I mean out of my control. I can't change my feelings, nor those of others.

In response to this temporal misery, I bought a book, went "shopping" i.e., walked around looking at stuff, bought smell good candles and a soda. A magazine too.

My goals today are thematic: accomplishment. I use this term loosely, which means my shopping fulfills one goal-completion, which means I've, as yet, been successfull. How's that for rationalizing? Woot!

Work on a paper, a presentation, some reading, more reading, and study for an exam in a class I've not attended in two months.
