Valerie's Norwegian Musings

Because all the rain and salmon and fjords are enough to make anyone pensive.

Living the lie

Rainy, rainy, rainy. Permanent puddles. Too much stress. Too little food. And too little sleep. But lots of Raine, which is good.

I don't really, honestly care about many people on this campus. Is that bad? Does anyone here actually care about each other? Aside from the fact that we can all go to class, go to parties, have fun together, laugh every once in awhile...it doesn't really mean anything, does it? How many of these people do you care about independent from this campus?

I can think of about five.

And you know what? I'm alright with that now. Much better to have those five than to fake all my relationships like so many other people on this campus. Much more depressing to live in a false impression of this place than to accept it for what it is, yeah?

Or you can try your best to honestly care for other people, because the thought of that nobody actually cares about you either, is kind of devastating. I'd rather care about everyone here, and it will definitely wear me out, but it would be so much worse to leave this place thinking you saved yourself, while so many others suffered because no one cared. We all depend on each other, although everyone keeps telling me that the only one you can rely on is yourself. I would definitely perish in that case.
