Things I like:
Singing: 3 hours/week
Cooking and eating at home: 8 hours/week
Spending time with Chinese friends: 2 hours/week
Studying Chinese etc.: 12 hours/week
Walking/riding in pleasant places: 1 hour/week
Things I dislike:
Being in the lab: 45 hours/week
Riding to and from the lab: 3 hours/week
Cleaning up other people's messes in the kitchen: 1 hour/week
Shopping at Sainsbury's: 2 hours/week
So on average I spend slightly more than twice as much time each week engaged in activities I dislike than things I like. I needed to work this out objectively, since my mood has been oscillating quite a bit lately, and I never know which moods I can trust as my 'real' feeling about my life at the moment. From the above, it would seem that my life is one-third good, two thirds bad. Is this the best I can hope for?
