So stop thinking about it. Build a life for yourself. Have fun. Get drunk. Make friends. Go fishing. There’s no good reason to obsess over things beyond your control. If it’s going to happen, and you’re powerless to do anything about it, then it’s going to happen regardless of what you do. You might as well enjoy what you can, while you can, and then deal with shit when shit happens.
