i have THREE midterms, another one being next wednesday as well. can someone shoot me please?

i spent my entire night baking a disaster cake for nothing instead of finishing my assignment, by the time i was done i was emotionally exhausted because i thought to myself, when's the last time someone really went out of their way even when their schedule was pure madness to make me a cake on my birthday? (note: we made that cake together it doesn't count). i don't even want a stupid cake, and it's not anyone's fault for not being thoughtful and caring... i have this stupid idea that people would go out on the limb for me just because i would go out on the limb for them.

i'm not speaking about this particular case but from everyone in general: what hurts the most i guess is people always forget the kind gestures.
doing this is just not self satisfying anymore when people don't give a crap.
