“I feel that it’s important to fail now and again. For instance, if I go for a job and I don’t get it, that makes me not a better person, but more balanced, more aware of what life is really like.” - Romola Garai

aussieirish: spacecricket: Hyperbole and a Half posted again, and everyone needs to read it because: If you are depressed, it will resonate with you like whoa. If you are not depressed, it will clarify some stereotypes about depression that need to be said. An explanation like this has been needed for a LONG time. If you know someone who is depressed, you’ll be better at interacting with them after reading this. It’s also just really well done and will make you laugh even though you’re dying inside.

I don’t love studying. I hate studying. I like learning. Learning is beautiful.

I can remember at school how we would read together in class an Ode by Keats, a Shakespeare sonnet or a chapter of Animal Farm. I would tingle inside and want to sob, just at the words, at nothing more than the simple progression of sounds. But when it came to writing that thing called an Essay, I flubbed and floundered. I could never discover where to start. How do you find the distance and the cool to write in an academically approved style about something that makes you spin, wobble and weep.
