Feeling depressed tonight. Hello world :) Tonight I feel kind of depressed, and I have to tell someone my feelings and I thought Italki was a great place for that purpose. I have too much things to do for school for tomorrow, but I just can't focus on what I'm doing. Moreover, I'm very tired. Sometimes I want to escape from my life, to be far from myself. But unfortunately, I just can't. Indeed, we all have to follow a sort of "line" to try to be successful in life. We are pushed by a desire of succeeding, but today I feel like if I was in jail. In addition, it's getting colder and colder in Paris, and it's now getting dark very soon as we are getting closer and closer to winter. It could be one of the reason of my little "depression" ! At least, it made me practice my English ! :)

Feeling depressed tonight.

Hello world :)

Tonight I feel kind of depressed, and I have to tell someone my feelings and I thought Italki was a great place for that purpose.
I have too many things to do for school for tomorrow, but I just can't focus on what I'm doing. Moreover, I'm very tired. Sometimes I want to escape from my life, to be far away from myself, but unfortunately, I just can't. Indeed, we all have to follow a sort of "line" to try to be successful in life.

[Very good.  I'm glad you are able to see the positives in your situation.]

I am over 30, And there are already many, many things that I am not supposed to do already: - to get a crazy haircut. I have lost my hair and even with hair I will look stupid anyway because of my age. - to visit rave parties. I am a grown-up man, this will look stupid. - to flirt with 18-19 girls. I will look like a pedophile and it would be awkward and there are no mutual interests between me and them already. - to be supposed to be lame on your job because you are on a junior position. I am supposed to be high skilled professional already, no mistakes approved for me. - to do my wander-year. - to participate in travel and work program (too old). You can do all those things if you want. Have a look at the movie "L'Auberge espagnole" (2002).

An example of seeing the positives in life: Soldier: Captain, I have bad news and good news. Captain: What's the bad news? Soldier: We're trapped here by the snow, we've run out of supplies and there's nothing for us to eat but buffalo manure. Captain: That's terrible! What's the good news? Soldier: We have plenty of buffalo manure!
