Loneliness Rediscovered

The past couple of weeks have been tough. As the semester begins to wind down, the cold reality of just how alone I am begins to set it. Don't get me wrong, it's no one's fault; it's simply the nature of the beast of graduate school. As finals draw near, friends have less and less time to spend with each other, promising fun at a later date. This is fine and good until someone like me gets in my "funks". This weekend is when I really began to feel the crunch of the semester. I'm sitting pretty right now. I've got study guides done and I'm feeling like I'm in a great spot. But when other's don't feel the same way, loneliness begins to overwhelm me. It's hard. I simply need human contact. At this point, I really don't care if it's my worst enemy (I hope there are none), I just need to be with someone. This is when it sucks to be single. At least if I was dating someone, he would tell me that I'm crazy and to get over it! I'm not so sure why I take things like this personally, but I do...to a fault. So, the point of this blog is that if you are reading it, you should call me. I'm dying a slow and painful death here in Waco right now. Only 15 more days until finals are over. Maybe, hopefully, surely, life can get back to "normal" then.
