Cycle Continues
I noticed something in my life as of these few years since I started working. There are certain phases in my life that are looping. I think it goes something like this;
1. Super interested
This is the phase when I'm super excited about starting something new. Be it new game, new hobby, new fling, new job or whatever. I'd be making plans on how to do it well and impress people along the way.
Among my current things in this state would definitely be - Magic the Gathering (tournament season coming up :P ) and my gym routine
2. Enjoying the shit out of it
This is the peak of my interest in something. I love doing it every moment. No regrets of time spent on it. Willing to kill people if I can't do it. LOL.
Current things I'm doing in this state - going home to cuddle with Zach, Zuzu, Zizi and Coffee
3. Starting to feel a little too routine
Routine is actually not a bad thing but sometimes it can get a bit stale. Depending on the situation and the things I do, sometimes this will propel me back to 1) or head on to 4)
Current things I'm doing in this state - Work, I guess? It's pretty routine, right? Wake up on Monday till Friday, go work, lunch, go home. LOL
4. Losing interest
This is when the routine you are doing is way way too stagnant with no improvement despite me trying to change things. Being unable to change how the thing works, I'll eventually lose interest in it.
Current things I'm doing in this state - World of Warcraft at the moment. I lack real friends that I know in real life to play with. My guildies are fun and stuff, but no real pals to talk about the game in real life when yamcha and chui sui can't keep my level of interest high all the time. :(
5. Stop doing it
This is when I totally don't do the things I used to enjoy anymore.
Current things I did in this state - Starcraft 2 and many other games that I'm no longer playing. Looking for flings are also in this category at this point. LOL
6. Bored the shit out of myself cause I've got nothing to do
This is what I do when a certain category of things in my life is missing and I need to get back on track. I probably lose sleep or just stare at blanks (procrastinating).
Current category of stuff I'm missing in life - Good close pals to hang out with. I'm not as sociable as many of you might think I am. :(
7. Look around for new stuff to do
Once I get out of the procrastination state, I'll be looking for things to do again in relevant categories of my life. Of course, at this moment, I'm definitely looking for pals with similar interests with me.
2 categories to be honest
a) Yamcha/Gaming buddies - Similar interest in games which involves strategy. Among the games I play are Magic the Gathering, World of Warcraft, Starcraft 2, Mahjong, Texas Hold'em and surprise me if you think you have a strategy game that I'd enjoy as well. Oh, gambling is not exactly important for me, but I just really enjoy the strategy involved in Mahjong and Texas
b) Cute Gay Guys - Hahaha, do I need to explain further? I need to know what's happening around the circle as I'm a little backward thanks to my seclusion from the community these few years. Even if you're not very informative, it doesn't matter cause I definitely don't mind filling you in with my info, if you know what I mean. LOL. Cute is definitely important cause I'm superficial in nature.
I don't think that all things in my life will pass by all 7 phases, but there are quite a number of stuff under the entertainment category I did which did went through all 7. Of course, things I hold close to my heart won't change phases easily unless there's a major crisis in life which I certainly don't hope to happen.
How many of you guys reading this find the phases in my life ring true to your own? Do share your experience. :)
