Crap. Handled the situation wrongly.
Why is it that the more I look at it the worst my actions seem to be?
Am I being cowardly? Or am I thinking for others. Or am I dwelling too much?

Personality and Multiple Intelligence
Had a short break between some duties so I decided to take this "Multiple Intelligence" test.
Looks like I am quite a loner, and highly logical. Does that make me more emotionally detached?

Obsession and Fancy
Where do you draw the line between obsession and fancy?
How about between eye candy and puppy love?
You will at least step slightly out of your way to catch a glimpse of her. If opportunity presents itself to have a slightest inch of communication with her, you will wholly grab onto it.
But aren't those signs of love? Or at least nascent strands of puppy love.
Why is it that, when you forget someone over the course of the weekend, once you see her again your mind is filled with her again? (I don't mean thinking of her 24/7, but at least you will notice her more often) It is quite distracting. At least I am certain I won't spend the rest of my life with her.
What's with me and those guy thing to be attracted to girls? ...

Getting back on track
Upon introspection, I have gone astray again.
I am playing more games than usual and neglecting my other work.
Army did a great job at weaning me off games, but now the extra freedom has been consumed by needless entertainment.
I have so many things to do, but so little time.
Now I shall limit myself to only ONE game or ONE hour (whichever is lesser) everyday for gaming. The rest shall be doing my work or other interests.
As a self reminder:

Bubble Me
I think I am really in love with bubble tea - at least for quite some time already. Once I am at Clementi central and I have some spare time (at least 5 minutes) I will definitely get myself bubble tea. Either from 5 Degree Tea or Shiny Tea or Koi.
And I am rather price elastic (but I have ruled out most others), so once the first two shops do not offer any promotion I will go to Koi. (:
And I somehow know the style of the bubble tea made by the shops I patronise. Some are more milky, some have a stronger tea taste, and some are just plain sweet.
I may cringe at others spending a few cents more for drinks at the coffee shop but I am certainly fine with myself spending $2.40 for some pre-made tea drink with milk and balls of flour. That's certainly weird and nonsensical.
Oh well but I certainly love them.
However, addiction does not mean uncontrolled consumption. I have a limit of only 1 bubble tea per day, only on really really rare occasions do I drink more than once. That rule only applies locally, Taiwan bubble tea is buy on sight and yes I am not bothered by that fact.
But once I drink one cup of bubble tea, my lust (yes I think its an apt word) for the drink is quenched and I will have no inclination to lap up any more of that brown coloured drink.
Furthermore, I will only drink Bubble Milk Tea at 50% sweetness. I do not like to drink other flavours as I only like the standard, once-ubiquitous, the-one-which-started-it-all drink.
Lastly, I am picky about the drink when the cups are offered at similar prices. I taste-test new shops I see by buying my standard tea.
So yes, addiction? Yes. But at least not to the point it hurts my wallet (:
But I really like bubble tea. Drinking them makes me blissful for that moment.
And to readers: don't ask me to buy for you bubble tea without expecting me to drink some too! Ok la, I will buy my own cup to satiate my own hunger, no other bubble teas harmed.

American Pie
No matter how silly a show can be, lessons can still be gleaned from them
1) Even after having children, a couple should still treat each other like husband and wife and not as "father and mother"
2) Friends stick with you all the way, and their personalities will still be the same. But one should remember the circumstances they are in, and although the good old days are "fun", they should remain as "good old days".

Coincidence
Was surfing Facebook (Sundays are for relaxing right?) and came across this article from Thought Catalog.
Thought catalog has always provided good perspectives that strike a chord with many of us, but I came across these 2 articles which I really resonated with me. At least it was the same journey and revelations that I have with myself over the past year.
A Thank You To Real Friends
Reduce your self-loathing
I think there is no need for any explanation of how they are linked to me, by now it should be quite clear (:
Thank you readers!
