Ummm... I'm not depressed. I just thought I should clarify that b/c the last post was pretty down. I think writing that stuff down even helped. Cathartic. Lot of people lately have had emotional blowouts. It seems almost trendy. Carol (the roommate) said that her next goal was to find me a boyfriend. haha. good luck with that. I guess my mood could be traced to two key things:
1. I haven't been doing the God thing lately. (what's with closing churches when the weather isn't perfect? that's just not cool.) I think since I haven't gone to church the past couple of weeks that I've come to the conclusion that my faith should not be church-based. I should not be relying on that as my only means of religiousness. I need to be actively reading the Bible and praying. I did this last night, and today has already been better.
2. I am lonely, and I am tired of waiting for the right guy for me. (not that that means I will cease to wait and just settle for anyone b/c that is definately not true. I'm pretty picky.)
Yep, so don't be nervous for me. I'm ok, I promise.

Lol, sorry but Andrew's comment cracks me up. Not that I disagree with what he says, but just in case his post somehow fails to answer any questions you still have, it may be helpful to note that he's basically directly quoting from a book titled "Awareness" by Anthony De Mello. It talks a lot pretty much exactly what you mentioned in that previous post about how most people sleep-walk through life and miss out on much of reality's true beauty. Not only did I love the ideas in the book, I also thought it really explained things in a simple and enlightening way.
Anyway, if you want to read it, I have an extra copy or three (I really liked it I guess). It's not too long and i found it a quick and especially refreshing book to read, and judging from what you said in your posts, I definitely think you would really like it.
