School has started. I’m looking forward to this semester because I’m taking really interesting courses. My classes are on Kierkegaard, aesthetics, photography, symbolism, visual culture, and Iranian cinema. As far as professors, Dr. Lenson seems to be the best one. He teaches the symbolism class, and is a fascinating guy. He’s funny (in an intelligent way), lectures well, and is passionate. One of those teachers that if they had a little bit of luck, they would have become great artists. As Woody Allen says in his film “Match Point”, you should not wish to become great but to be lucky. There is some truth to this.

In the past two days I’ve been living with absolutely no money. Not even a dollar. It’s difficult. I’m getting tired of my financial situation. I guess it’s going to be like this for a while. At the moment, my worries are textbooks and also Valentine's Day. I have to find a way to buy the books. I need at least $200. Valentine's Day is also coming soon. I’ll be ashamed if I can’t get anything for M. I don’t want to borrow money from anyone. Each time I borrow money I feel degraded.

Had dinner with Kamy. Such a nice guy. One of my best friends ever. He’s very worried about his classes. It’s his last semester. Good for him. I’m sure he’s going to be successful.

Have been depressed in the past few days. For many reasons. Hopefully it’s going to pass soon.
