It’s okay.
 
Translation: It sucks.
 
Sometimes I just feel like breaking something. The closest thing to me is my keyboard. I feel like snapping it in half…watching as the individual keys fly off into every direction.
 
It seems like I have no time for anything or anyone and that makes me sad. I don’t know what is me. Was it me last night? or another part of me? I like that part of me. The social, outgoing, uncaring, carefree, happy-go-lucky…me. Instead I’m often the boring, uninterested, uninteresting…me. It’s hard making new friends or perhaps close friends. 2007 seems like an extremely shitty year for me. The pair of earphones I bought is stuffed. The right earbud has fallen off. I’ve only used it for 2 days.
 
I just cbb anymore turning to the person next to me and going "Hi, I’m John." followed by a "nice to meet you. So what degree you doing?" followed by a response like "Science" or "Medical Science" and then realising you’ll probably never see them again the next day.
 
Do I regret it? Probably not. But I just hope that somethings could just be better.
 
"AROUSAL FACILITATES THE PERFORMANCE OF THE DOMINANT RESPONSE".
 
I guess I chose psychology for one primary reason to learn about social psychology. It’s pretty much all common sense, HOWEVER, we all like to be told things we already know thus making us more aware of it when the time occurs.
 
We learnt that when there’s an audience or fellow competitors we tend to perform better in the stuff we’re good at. That’s obviously true. We’ve all experienced it.
 
E.g. Playing a pool game. When there’s an audience you tend to do a lot better. I mean we all like to show off our egos to demonstrate how truly great we are.
 
Though at the end of a lecture I also began thinking about a possible experiment that could be conducted HOWEVER, the variables will be extremely hard to maintain.
 
Say two people are engaged in a pool match, how much better would one person do if someone that they liked was in the audience as oppose having a general audience? Would it make a crap pool player do better if a person that they liked was in the audience or would it make them perform even worse?
 
It’s okay.
