Well, in an effort to at least try to get out there, I tried for my driver's permit, and, of course knowing me, I failed. I don't even know why I try to succeed at things. I'm just going to fail at them. I try to pass a math test, I fail, I try to socialize, I fail, I try to get a driver's permit, I fail.

Now the question I ask myself is, why do I even bother? I'm never going to succeed. Like I'm just a useless piece-of-slime failure. I feel like I get up for a few seconds only to be pushed back down. Sometimes I don't want to get back up, and today is one of those days.


I think there's a fine line between feeling like a failure and feeling mellow with who you are as a person. I myself can't attest to having done anything in this life worthy of praise but if I can accept what I do then perhaps I can find peace with who I am.

Find that sweet spot, it's out there, somewhere...
