life sucks
I try to be optimistic. I really do. I always say that God only gives us the burdens that we can handle, but you know what? I'm angry right now because I don't want this anymore.
Everyone knows that I hate law school and that I've tried so hard to like something about it. There are days when I have less hate, but it's there nonetheless. It's difficult to know that I made a rash decision and came to this hell hole because I thought it was an opportunity that I couldn't pass up. Well, now I know better. It's ok to say no to things. Not every single chance that arises for you to do something is one that you should accept. Maybe if I were less impulsive, I could have avoided some heartache.
So now I'm stuck in this place until I get my required 85 credits. Only this semester and then 31 to go...
To make matters worse, I have to love someone who doesn't live in the same city that I do and that I don't get to see for another month at least. I've loved him for years, and despite everything that we've gone through, the love is still there and strong. It fucking hurts. Both of us alone, both of us loving each other, both of us knowing that there's nothing we can do about the situations we're in.
So here I am, God. Dealing with this pain and wishing it would just end. How about dabbing a little mercy my way and letting me get what I want? Is that so hard?
Seriously. Life sucks. Maybe someday I'll be happy again, but right now it looks like the next couple of years are going to be full of days like this when I want nothing more than to give everything and everyone a big "fuck you," move to North Carolina to my favorite beach, read all day, and bartend at night. Although Matt mentioned the Cayman Islands...which wouldn't be too bad either.

I have a blog and was messing around and found your post. Your posts are intersting. But I must ask......
Your life sucks? What about the soldiers in Iraq who haven't seen their families in over a year? Who were supposed to be home by now, and won't even be home for a second year straight for Thanksgiving even? What about the families who have lost a daughter or a son to the war? How about to those people in law school in Tulane who have seen their whole lives crash down around their ears and for some, can't even attend law school right now?
At least you have someone to love, have a happy, healthy family. And are IN SCHOOL and doing well (presumably).
Just something to keep in mind.....God has a lot bigger issues to deal with than somehow having some organized plan against YOU, or at least I hope so.

Mika,
Thanks for that...if you read my next post, you'll see that at the end I was actually grateful for what I have. Everyone needs to complain once in a while. There's no way that I can say my life is truly bad. I'm incredibly blessed and grateful for the opportunities that I've had. It's just that sometimes stress gets to me and I need to vent. I certainly don't believe God has a vendetta, not against anyone. I just call it the why me syndrome that us humans get...
Thanks for the reality check nonetheless. :)
