为什么？！我怎么不会学？

[koftu]

Academically, I fail. Not literally, but a lot damn worse than I'd like. Did I pick the wrong major? Should I give up now while there's still time? Where did my vocabulary, grammar, and sesquipedalian tendencies go? Why the fuck can't I learn stuff anymore

Good luck, dude. Sorry I fell off tonight, I got preoccupied with other things. Also, I would recommend eating kosher-style at least temporarily because that cuts out a lot of the fattiest foods (bacon, cheeseburgers, bacon cheeseburgers, et cetera).

Don't worry about it

Actually, I don't eat a lot of meat (frugality means I don't eat out very much, and I don't trust the meat in the dining halls). But thanks for the well-wishes.

Hey, take a deep breath. I'm sure you're doing a lot better than your grades say you are. They usually swing one way or the other -- you just ended up on the unlucky end, it'll swing around man.

Don't freak out, because it's silly and you can use the time on more productive things, or just lie back and have fun and coffee. You're real smart and you can learn just fine. Don't let it get you down that it's not all as easy as it once was, it just means you're really learning for serious now!!

PS - if you want a postcard from Russia, e-mail me your address and I'll get one to you from somewhere cool :)
