I study so hard and so long and I'm going to lose it all when I die

<p>It makes me so incredibly sad. I'm sacrificing so much for it all. Eventually I may be proud of what I learned or of what I can do with all this learning, but that will just make the loss of death so much harder to bear. :( Sometimes I do feel proud of what I've learned, especially after so much hard work. But again, it's all for naught when I can no longer perceive the world. :(</p>

<p>That’s why conquer the world while you can. When you croak, there’s nothing you can do about it. So, while your breathing and dancing to your beat, take a shot and fight with all its worth.</p>

<p>Then become an Absurd Hero. Like Meursault in “The Stranger.”</p>

<p>Well, at least you figured it out now. Are you deing now?</p>

<p>That’s why I’m trying to live with as little regrets as possible =)</p>

<p>enjoy life while it’s here… ^.^</p>

<p>Yeah, but when you are dead, you really won’t mind this. :)</p>

<p>^Yeah, I know, so go buy a Beretta .28 and shoot yourself in the head. Then, you don’t have to worry about all this.</p>

<p>Oops I just said something that’s against the point of existence of collegeconfidential.com</p>

<p>I’m not worrying about death, OP is.</p>

<p>^I was talking to OP. That ^ arrow was used to refer to your post, but wasn’t clear on that part. Sorry about the confusion.</p>

<p>you could pull a Chris McCandless and just journey the lands and do whatever you want to do…</p>

<p>haha omg ive read the stranger. strangely enough i wasnt that affected by it.</p>

<p>mmm</p>

<p>That’s why your lifelong goal should be to discover a method of living forever…</p>

<p>And after you discover how to do it^, you will be run over by some random drunk</p>

<p>lol i’m obsessed with life extension; i read all the major life extension and transhumanist blogs.</p>

<p>but in the end, every star will burn out and entropy will rule.</p>

<p>Or…just stop studying, take a gap year, explore the world, and party all night long.</p>

<p>yea this is like the one reason i haven’t killed myself. besides the fact that i don’t want to.</p>

<p>Seriously, listen to Coldplay. I recommend: fix you, strawberry swing, spies, yellow, the scientist and lovers in japan. “A Message” was also recently featured on “Hope for Haiti” which you can get on iTunes. Definitely worth the money. Coldplay makes me feel better, I hope they can help you. They seem somewhat quiet and “depressing” at first, but you will feel so much better after listening to a row of Coldplay songs.</p>

<p>If you’re an existentialist, (im assuming you could be, due to your reading of the stranger) take responsibility for your life. don’t hope or wallow in your despair. you have to act! figure out what’ll make you happy. it’s a hard thought, but it’s worth it!</p>

<p>GO LIVE YOUR LIFE A HAPPY PERSON :slight_smile: :slight_smile: :)</p>

<p>This is why you only devout some of your life to studying. You need to have an actual life too.</p>

<p>Yeah, lol, funny thing is that I treasure my memories from fun too, and I don’t want to lose those memories when i die :p</p>

<p>Just enjoy life.</p>

<p>Or do something worth being remembered.</p>
