ack. i finished all of my exams today. it leaves me very deflated. i mean, it was fine at first - because everyone around me after this exam was crying (literally), and so i felt better in a relative sense. (especially since emily was throwing champagne around/at me.) and the guy behind me was like "so much for medical school". and the girl

[ochodias]

did you come home this morning? or do i just imagine these things. where are you?

[absinthesoul]

woah, totally wish i was there for the "katie going out every night!" Congratulations!

[ochodias]

well you will be here soon, won't you?

On the day that i finished, I walked around aimlessly looking for something to do, ended up sitting with a table full of garage rockers smoking PCP on the terasse of the old Cafe Chaos, and finally went home, fearing iminent existential collapse. True to form, it came shortly thereafter.

ps. I added you, so I may comment on your entries from time to time. Be not alarmed.

hah! i always feel like that. once i met holly and sat on grass in the sun anxiously trying to remember how to have a good time. i'm sure i was really annoying.

my 'existential collapse' is usually limited to wasting time for awhile, staring at the wall and such, and feeling like i'm useless. not much more than that though, thank goodness.
ps. i'll add you too!

You're lucky on the existential front, I've always thought that most people had some kind of vague awful emptiness they weren't admitting, but eventually it occurred to me that perhaps it was always just me... but I've got a shrink with hairplugs to help me ford mine, so it's all going well.

Lately I've been listening to the Pogues as a means of bridging the divide between despondent/terrified and ready to party.

[ochodias]

oh it's not just you, my friend. everyone is ALWAYS talking about 'the void.' maybe you're right and i don't admit to emptiness because i'm afraid of it and it makes me happier not to. but i think my personal tactic will be to continue like that. or, any time i feel that kind of thing coming on, i play with the cat or get people to talk about interesting things. but i'm just easily distractable.

are you done for good good good, or just for the semester?
in either case... congrats!

[ochodias]

oh just the semester. the degree will be in april, and that will be a whole other 'can of worms', as they say.

(do they say can or bag?)
