I have so many things I want to do and so many things I need to do. But once I have the free time I end up doing dumb shit, like surfing around the internet or watch TV.
I'm usually not a very dramatic person. I go with the flow. I don't like confrontation. I really don't like people to be upset with me in anyway.
That's my basic goal in life, keep everyone around me happy.
Lately I've been thinking a lot about myself and not others. I feel stupid for this. But at the same time I guess this is the perfect time to do this. I don't want to fuck up my life now, you know.
I've been pretty lazy too. I worked out once last week, first time since November. Tonight I plan to work out. I also have been lazy with class work. Maybe because it's never ending and I feel no motivation if I'll never get to the end.
I decided to do my Econ project on Happy Gilmore.
Happy's incentive to play golf was to get money to pay for his Grandma's house.
Happy's opportunity cost was giving up hockey to play golf.
Happy's marginal benefit is meeting/dating that girl (forgot her name).
Happy almost had a consumer surplus when he found out his Grandma's house was up for auction and he could buy it cheaper.
Marginal changes-Happy had to cut back his violence and swearing to stay in the tournament.
-Shooter had to hire someone to annoy Happy so he would performed worse.
Shooter and Happy are substitutes.
Hockey and Golf are substitutes.
I'll have to do some research (aka watch the movie) so I can write a whole paper about this.
Ever have a love-hate relationship with life?
