Ever feel like it's time to stop collecting? A disheartened collector...... (Sun Feb 13 04:54:52 2000 )

Hello,

  Just wondering if any of you have ever felt like maybe 

collecting isn't as much fun as you once thought it was. I 

love my cels so very much. They are so very special to me, 

one of the only true joys in my life. But, the whole 

process is kinda saddening to me.

    I miss out so much, mostly because I'm so busy with 

school and work. Trying to get my doctorate in pharmacy is 

hard with  classes like immunology, pathophysiology, etc. 

And, since I got in a car accident three weeks ago, I've 

been having to get to school at 6:45AM EST, since my sister 

takes me to school since my car is still being fixed.

So, I'm at school all day and miss a lot of updates. Plus, 

I need to get physical therapy for my back and neck as a 

result of the car accident, so I usually have to take care 

of that after school. Or, I'm stuck at school late with 

study groups so I can get through my classes. With only 25% 

percent of students getting accepted to my program, and 

only 25% of those accepted will graduate, I have to put my 

heart into my studying. But, then I come home and see all 

the great cels on hold =( 

   It's just not as much fun anymore. And, then I got an 

email tonight regarding cels that really upset me  

and it really made me feel like maybe it's time to give up 

on collecting all together in the near future. =(

   I kinda don't even want to go to my early morning 

classes so maybe I will actually see an update. But, my 

eduction is really important to me. I want to help improve 

the quality of life for people who are ill, or suffer from 

long term diseases that require careful drug monitoring. 

But, it's ruining my cel collecting and making me sad =(

   I don't want to complain, but I wanted to know if anyone 

here has ever been in a similar situation. I'm so very sad 

about this. I'm wondering if I'm the only one who has ever 

felt this way about collecting. Maybe some of you have 

found a way to overcome this problem, and can give me some 

hope. Any advice would be very much appreciated. I hope no 

one has ever felt like this before though, because I don't 

wish this kind of overwhelling sorrow on anyone. 


Thank you everyone and take care,

Robin
