We're the new face of failure; prettier and younger, but not any better off

This semester is not anything like I expected it to/hoped it would be.
Taking 6 classes (all engineering classes, no gen eds) is really taking its toll. Homework is building up, projects and reports and papers are getting out of hand, and tests seem harder and harder each time.
Work isn't fun anymore. I used to like working because I would work with people I know. This year, I work with people I don't know (with the exception of 1 hour a week), most of whom are lazy and suck at their job, and constantly get in the way. Kinda glad that Hope took away most of the business, cause if it was constantly busy like it was last year, I would have already quit.
Living off campus isn't everything I expected, but it's not bad. We're trying to save money by not turning on the heat during the day, so I'm constantly wearing a sweatshirt around the house. Gas prices are going up, and having to fill up (or put in like, $20) every week isn't helping either.
I've stopped eating meals most days. I'll have an occasional lunch at the Butt maybe twice a week and usually have a bagel every morning. But I skip dinner almost every night, because I'm either not that hungry, or I'm too lazy to cook myself food.
Disc isn't as fun this year either. There are 3 captains: 1 hardly comes to practice, another is doing a bad job of informing us about tournaments and yells at people at practice instead of being helpful, and the other one is doing a decent job of running drills and stretches and stuff. It's really frustraing that it's not as fun this year only because the captain is running the team poorly.
I'm lonely, and it sucks :(
I can only wish this semester would hurry up and be over with and hope that next semester will be better :/
