Interesting post from Scott Adams:

i think i engineer my own happiness the same way too.

Food - I love to eat. And i always feel happier after eating something. When i'm upset, i look for food too.

Exercise - I exercise because it makes me feel happy. And then SR complements me saying i have a good physique, so that's double happy. When i get gold for my IPPT, that makes me triple happy and 400 dollars richer. I don't understand why people don't exercise.

Goals - I do have very mini work related goals that makes me feel happy when working on them. Makes me feel like i can change somethings.

Meaning - I love myself. People probably don't realise it, but i'm quite selfish when it comes to my own time. Which is why i don't bother entertaining acquaintances unless i'm forced to. Sorry if anyone feels hurt by this statement.

Positivity - Mmm i've got to work on this a bit more. I do like to comment on what's wrong with everything and everyone. I'm an asshole. But after spending years with SR, i probably learnt to tone it down and be slightly more socially acceptable. I hope haha.

A little bit of danger - I'm quite risk adverse. Maybe i should really do a roller coaster ride just one fucking time.

Learn - I love to learn and learning makes me very happy. I learnt what is slow flash yesterday. Wedding shots will never be the same again hahahah. Truth be told, i'm actually thankful for my brain to be able to comprehend most things i read, and therefore learn.

Feel success - There's a reason why i like to shoot alone. Making 200-300 shots in 1 hour is like 200-300 mini victories in a short span of time, and a very good way to tell yourself that, "yes, i'm a good shooter". Ego-boosting, but it makes me happy.

Relationships - I have good relationships with the people that matter to me. And that's just a small circle of friends. For relationships, i think quality is always better than quantity. Again, sorry my dear acquaintances, i don't really bother :)

Just found out that SR's pal is attached with some guy i know from NS. Honestly speaking, he did not leave a good impression on me back then, but i couldn't remember exactly why. Subconsciously, i just know that i should stay away from this person.

My memory sucks, but i remember all the people that i should avoid. Sounds kinda like the guy in Memento.

*shrug*

This got me today:

Finally the season is over. My uncle team got eliminated in the play-offs today. I din play well at all, multiple turnovers in the opening minutes. Made only 1 three, zero FTs again, zero drives, 3 FGA. I think i spent more time just running up and down the court and boxing out. What a way to end the season.

Anyways, i think i've gotta reschedule my week. Since i can't ball on weekends, then i might as well just workout during those days, either in the morning (very unlikely) or after i send SR home. Weekdays will be as follows:
Mon: Personal ball prac.
Tues: NUS ball session (mix it up with the ex-NUS players)
Wed: Personal ball prac/Jammer's league season in July
Thurs: St42 prac.
Fri: Andrew's friends ball session (maybe or just rest)

I like to play with Andrew's friends, some of them at least. They have alot of fight and are v physical. But some of them are just nua, so it's kinda lame to play against the nua guys. Ugh. Maybe friday and sunday shall be workout days, so i have one sat to rest.

I find it v hard to schedule a rest.

Just devised a new way to do burpees, which is to add a clapping pushup component to it. I think it's good, kill multiple birds with 1 stone. So instead of doing burpees and pushups and clapping pushups, now i just do 1 exercise.

I'm fucking crazy.
