thinking of the psyches of others 28th jan 2007

i'm thinking of my reading pursuits again, but this time in comparison to the pursuits of playing games, reading comics, gambling, clubbing, etc... i suppose there's nothing wrong with these other things, i remind myself again that there is no moral high ground for me to stand on, that its perfectly fine to indulge in these things, just as i indulge in my reading. people have fun playing games, its just that i have fun too, reading books. all in all, i remind myself again, that i am actually no different from the rest of them, but its just that i will have more opportunities to explore in the future with regards to academics and jobs. i suppose warcraft trains the mind for strategies, i guess, gambling trains market intuition, comics trains the graphic mind, clubbing - socialising skills - all important attributes. so yeah... whats with this thing that i have that other people are wasting their time? not everyone reads books, i know. God take out this puffed-up stupid thing, because i know that other than reading and writing, i'm an incredibly idiot at many others.
