I used to rule the world, seas would rise when I gave the word

Do you want to know what stress is?

Good, 'cause I'll tell you. Stress is trying to carry on a conversation with the girl you're harboring a massive crush on while still being the worst conversationalist in the world.

Epic failure, thy name is Troy.

Okay, I'm actually slogging through at the moment I type this, and I fear my little heart cannot take it. It's... well, stressful. Somewhere, there is a list of things I cannot afford to screw up, and this is #1 on that list. I don't expect spectacular instant results, naturally, this is going to take some time and effort to go anywhere.

To be fair, it's actually not that bad so far. I think.

Um... I found a copy of the DS Chrono Trigger, which I'd been looking for recently. Played about an hour so far, pretty good game. And I have a really cool plush Kirby I found at the same store. Yes, I know, giant kid at heart, but still.

Maybe, just maybe, things are starting to turn around, even if only a little.
