Hey, (((Music Rules Me)))

you know, i've been there too. can i do some debunking here? firstly, music does not rule you; you rule you. happiness is an accomplishment; it doesn't just happen. doing your college work is not pointless because it will lead to a good future; everyone makes sacrifices when they go to college. money is tight and one can't often participate in all the social events in order to get good grades. but, the wise people put good grades over social needs. keep aiming towards your goals - a degree in a field you like and working with people who are like-minded. your social life will blossom from there.

sometimes the feelings you are having are a sign of fatigue. try getting some rest and see if you feel better. give yourself rewards when you accomplish things, e.g., complete a college paper. i used to reward myself with cakes or pies! often, i did it piecemeal. ok, i finished the first part, time for a piece of pie! then, gradually, the second and final parts (of both the paper and dessert) were finished too.

sometimes rants will lift burdens off your shoulders also. i hope you felt better after sharing your feelings. keep venting them here until that darn degree is finished! that's what we are here for. as i got older, i learned that if you expect answers and solutions to all problems then you will end up disappointed. learning to live with your problems and peeves is really the solution.
