Even with all this work to do and stress constantly clogging my thoughts, I still sometimes step outside and am just struck by the beauty of nature, or the happiness of others, or the warm greeting of a friend. I'm not really sure if my efforts will be worth it in the end, or if there's anything for me, but I'll see what I can do.

There's not much nature out here in the city, and I don't really know anyone IRL. Though I guess walking around campus can be fun at times. The rarity of nature in an urban backdrop makes it easier to appreciate, in my experience. When you spend your life in edifices of brick, wood, metal, and various synthetic materials, green stands out so much better.

College is tough, but it can be very enjoyable; get out of it what you can. Well, yeah, I guess.

Hmm, it hasn't been very enjoyable for me so far. I've been told the same about high school, and I didn't end up enjoying it. I suppose I'll see. Remember to not let existential crises get the best of you

Indeed. It's difficult to appreciate life when all you can think about are the trials and tribulations. It can take a long time to gain an optimistic perspective about anything, but it really pays off.
