I'm trying not to panic

Sam: You're in it right now, aren't you?
Andrew Largeman: What?
Sam: My mom always says that, when she can see I'm like working something out in my head, she's like, 'you're in it right now' and I'm looking at you're telling this story, and you're definitely in it.

Sam: If you can't laugh at yourself, life's gonna seem a whole lot longer than you like.
Andrew Largeman: All right, so what are we laughing at you about?
Sam: I lied again... I have epilepsy.
Andrew Largeman: Which part are we laughing about?
Sam: had a seizure at the law office where I work, and they told me their insurance wouldn't cover me unless I wore preventative covering.
Andrew Largeman: What's preventative covering?
Sam: The helmet I was wearing... Oh come on, that's funny. That's really funny, I mean I'm the only person who wears a helmet to work who isn't putting out fires or racing for NASCAR. But what do you do, I can't quit... their insurance is amazing, what do you do? You laugh. I'm not saying I don't cry but in between I laugh and I realize how silly it is to take anything too seriously. Plus, I look forward to a good cry. It feels pretty good.

Andrew Largeman: F*ck, this hurts so much.
Sam: I know it hurts. But it's life, and it's real. And sometimes it f*cking hurts, but it's life, and it's pretty much all we got.

So, I've been thinking a lot lately about my last year of college. I was living w/ Dan in the annex and really enjoying this life that wasn't exactly real. No responsibilities and stuff you know? But this movie, gardenstate really changed my outlook on a lot of things...and the soundtrack was pretty freaking awesome.
