The thoughts of an odd duck who sits alone in a night cafe, with a stylo in his right, a journal in his left, a valise under his chaise, a tasse on the table, and plenty of time to pass.
Last night, I came upon an online article that presents this interesting statistical finding:
27% of college students report feelings of loneliness during their last few weeks of classes. 12 days left. I keep telling myself, "man, what's wrong with me!? This is supposed to be one of the best years of my life and here I am feelin like I haven't accomplished much of anything." I'd like to think that I've changed since I came to Davis but I really don't think I have. I thought for a moment that I found a strong core group of friends but that seemed to turn out crocky. And now school's ending and I probably won't be seeing some certain people much ever again... there's like a sort of strain there.
I'm ready to go to Duarte but not really. It's getting sadder and sadder here and soon, we'll all be saying goodbye. 12 days left.
