Futility.

I'm in the process of becoming a full fledged hermit. Haven't stepped out of my house since Sunday! I've been a good girl, staying home, not spending a single cent and studying (trying to). Wonder if I'll start to melt and disintegrate if I step out into the glaring sunlight and harsh weather conditions this coming Friday, after the week long retreat at home.

What would I gain from all the sacrifices that I've made?
