#27837 Is it too early in the semester to have a mental breakdown?
Asking for a friend

#27836 Life is great when 80% of your friends from last year start ignoring you for no reason...

#27835 Replying to #27828
If you are a guy, I would love to have lunch/dinner with you.
If you are a gal, do you want to go for coffee sometime?
Let me know if positive, I'll find a way to get in touch

#27834 Any advice on how to talk to recruiters in iR to impress them. I have been very unsuccessful in the IRs and need some advice.

#27833 I regret that there are professors.
Who don't care about you.
And use you like a chewing gum,
And not even have the decency,
To spit the gum in the dustbin.
I regret having spent time working for this professor
All under the impression that the professor cared.
Funny, I thought professors were supposed to be good people.
But then again it is a profession.
A way to earn money.
I remember the words, I would "never do this".
I would "always be there".
I had a hard time believing those words again.

I regret that I spent time with a child prodigy.
while working with the professor
Who, I later realized, was a con artist.
With a wealthy family to get all work
done by paying programmers online.
Imagine working on a problem for a
couple of weeks and then the child
prodigy comes with a solution
much better than yours.
You think, wow, that's a great solution, I have a lot to learn.
But then later realized, the solution was designed by a person hired at 60$/hr?
If you feel it is too good to be true, it is.
You talk to the professor.
And what does the professor do?
Claims that he/she cares about his/her students.
But then end up taking a stand which would
result in her/his work getting done fast.
Professional, but so unethical.
This threw me into depression for 3/4 of a semester.
Beware of such professors who try to exploit you like cheap labor.
No form of money is more important than your growth and peace of mind.

#27832 Eps.1
Red lips and rosy cheeks
Say you'll see me again even if it's just in your wildest dreams

I never liked Taylor Swift much until I started missing you and your single-repeats. Christ, did I get sick of you playing Blank Space on single repeat for literally 300+ times, but I even started missing that, grasping onto any trace of you that I can find. Pathetic, I know. Everything that I didn't like about you became so endearing, even if it hurted.

Eps. 2
I wish I knew how to quit you.

Two years, I spent so much effort on rebuilding a life without you. I thought I succeeded. I thought I have finally learned how to wake up without you by my side. I thought that I am no longer haunted by the illusion that we were totally great together. One glance at you was all it took -- I lost all composure; my world is upside down; you casually stroll into my head and I spend hours in ambivalence trying to escape and hunt down every thought of you; and once again, I wake up crying from yet another dream with you. I was addicted to you. Turns out I still am.

To be continued...

(I want to move on. I am so sick of telling people I can't commit because I have someone else in my mind, yet, I guess, I still want you back, in my wildest dreams.)
