All of the time I spent debating to no good end this afternoon when I could have been working on writing my book, or the assignment for college that is due in roughly two hours. That is what is making me sad.

I can't sleep because I'm almost constantly trying not to shit my pants.

Try sleeping while sitting on the toilet. While you might look like a stereotypical bum, that might help.

This feat is more difficult than you might make it seem...

I would look like one if I fell asleep while holding a booze bottle and wearing torn cl-

Anxiety is setting in again.
I'm worried about my chances at the univiversity and I'm not sure if I'm choosing the right direction.
I'm scared of failling and I'm angry that there hasn't been anybody to prepare me for this.
I'm not even sure where to turn to, for advice.

I still have half a year, but I already fear for my life :/

Unfortunatedly, there's not much good advice on what to choose. Or at least, advice that will aid you to make a foolproof choice.

Just keep your eyes open and be ready to change if it becomes clear you're making the wrong choice.  Don't jump ship every time you feel like you might be on the wrong path though, there's no escaping that rut once you're in it.

You are a teenager? right? you don't need direction yet. Just go for something you don't hate doing.

There's a good chance that whatever direction you pick will end up being the right direction, especially if you allow yourself to change direction later on. What I'm saying is, "the right direction" is a much more mutable thing than it's often thought of being. It's not just one Golden Path to Prosperity and Happiness.

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

Well, all I can say is: at least we're in the same boat.

I've gotten so much more anxious since I started college... it feels like I never do anything at all for pleasure anymore, and whenever I'm just sitting around relaxing I feel guilty.  Or when I'm doing easier classwork instead of getting right on the hard stuff, I feel guilty.  Or when I'm sitting on the bus without having one of my readings out, I feel--you guessed it--guilty.

I end up feeling like an uneducated idiot much of the time, because I hardly know anything about anything, I'm behind in one of my classes, I may end up having to retake a couple of classes and goodness knows that that's ridiculous...

Dammit, I miss the time when I felt like my knowledge level was not directly correlated to my societal worth, and that I had value as a person outside of my ability to argue esoterica that no one cares about outside of a status symbol.  I'd like to learn for the sake of learning, rather than learning to make a grade or learning to escape some fear of judgment or learning because I want to escape the stereotypical female fear of mathematics.  I love math.  Sort of.  I still want to be a professor of some stripe.  Sort of.  My cousin is currently studying to be an anthropologist... another is working to become a philosopher or poet.  As for me, I'm just sitting here being stupid.  I'll probably end up fulfilling the grand social role of being someone's terrible snarky wife, and someone's dissatisfied, angry mother.  Whoopie-dip.  We all know how much everyone values that career option.

And I can't cut the feeling that someone other than me deserves this education a lot more.  Someone who would work harder, be smarter, be more valuable to society instead of yet another damnable idiot who can't figure out her priorities.

Vector, doodabuddy, I think you need to get more sleep and chill a bit.

On the other hand, they say insanity does drive people to greatness. ^_^

Meanwhile, I am unemployed again, I think I've got some sort of pinched, and I feel like crap because I just wasted a whole day accomplishing nothing.

BUT despite the pain leaving me on the verge of crying a couple time, I went for a bike ride which cheered me up and now I'm going to host an RP so maybe it is not all bad.
