I always have a headache choosing when I have many choices to pick from; and It’s ironic really, because I see variety as a chance to pick what suits me best. Like there was this big game shop I used to go to when I was a kid and I could rarely choose. Of course my dad was happy about it. There are too many examples to prove this in my life; like I am happier when my mum buys me clothes. She gets me for instance one t-shirt or something and I always like it. If I was to go shop with her there’d be no guarantee I’d like what she picked. She rarely buys me clothes now but it’s a big help anyway.

I started reading this book, “Neurosis and human growth; the struggle toward self realization” buy Karen Horney. A bit of psychology and it’s good. In fact, now I have a pretty good theory about why I dislike choosing. Think about it; do you like choosing? Wouldn’t life be a whole lot easier if we always knew what choice to make?

I watched an old Woody Allen movie last night, “Annie Hall”. I liked it very much. It’s not today’s popular genre or style but it has so many brilliant ideas and so many great lines. Diane Keaton plays Annie and she acts so lively, you sometimes think you know exactly how she is feeling. I’ve watched “Scoop”, one of Woody Allen’s latest works, but apart from the good and strong comedy, there is no great idea. I’ve always thought that comedies should make you laugh, yet leave you wondering whether there is a similarity to your own life. “Annie Hall” does that and “Scoop” is nowhere near.

It’s quite hard, these days, waking up at 7 am. I don’t get enough sleep, and I feel really tired in the afternoon.

Have fun.
