From the outside looking in

It’s hard when all of your roommates belong to a similar discipline that’s different than yours. They always inevitably end up with a big project that’s the topic of conversation around the apartment for long periods of time. In then end I sort of feel neglected and left out. I know it’s not the case that they’re intentionally leaving me out. Duh! Still, that’s my gut reaction.

I was talking about this with Marie and she says that I should be thankful that I’m not part of it. I know that they’re very stressed out. And yeah, I guess I am thankful. At the same time, it’d be nice to be a part of it.

Usually, I just end up biting my lip and letting go. That’s all I can do. I refuse to sink into self-pity mode. There’s only one month left before exams. It’s time to roll up my sleeves and go psycho on the textbooks. I will not lose!
