Double-dog doubt you will

This week has been especially frustrating in numerous aspects. There is an ominous cloud of grey hanging above my head and it's growing blacker by the hour.

I am struggling in school, it feels as if I am barely keeping my head above water. The early morning classes are killing me and, I cannot tell a lie, I have been absent more than I care to admit. More than I know is acceptable. Here I am in the semester before I graduate and I can't even show up to class on a regular basis. I am shooting myself in the foot! Let me wave goodbye to the previous semesters 4.0 GPA while I can still spot it on the horizon, bye-bye!

My writing is really suffering. In class my erasure works harder than my pen. What meager writing I do produce is terrible. I doubt my writing ability now more than I ever have before. I don't think all the desire and passion in the world can make up for my lack of skill.

On top of it all I am supposed to be deciding which college to transfer to and all I can think about is how I didn't apply to any of the really good journalism schools and will therefore never get a job or become a writer.

Like I said, ominous cloud growing BIGGER and BLACKER by the hour.
