Online Class Notes (Jesse) [35.5]

focus more on the feeling on the grammar rather than the rules

I have been depressed recently with me having strong feeling about angry, anxious, and tired consistently, and it caused that I didn’t want to do anything and was tired of anything. Sometimes I was thinking to get rid of all the things, jobs and people, because I felt that no one really needs me and the world is ok without anyone, so it won’t be any problem if I give up anything, but just thinking.
I was thinking how about change a job and my resume was showed online for months, and I got almost 20 interviews and some job offers, but I felt that I didn’t fully prepare for change the job and environment, and I was afraid of uncertainty, therefore I was like a frog in the slowing boiling water who seemed ok for a while but has been losing courage and creativity.
