Paper Cups

It's amazing how little things have that not-so-little ability to make one's day. On that one particular day, to me, that little thing was paper cups.

I used to be great at bowling, but I lost that Midas touch now that I play it much much much less than I used to. Consequently, whenever I go for bowling games, the perfectionist me will get all nervous for anticipating that not-so-good feeling when my less-than-100 score would evidently proves the fact that I suck at it now haha =D Usually I would just sit in nervousness, watching other players doing their strikes and spares. When my turn comes, I would get up reluctantly, putting a ton of pressure on myself with the expectation that I should AT LEAST do a spare. And when that don't happen, I'll go back to my seat with a face that's gloomier than before.

That night, however, I found myself a distraction

Win-Win I like

I like board games. I really do. Even so, I don't play it often and I was reminded why the other night.

I am an idealistic person. I have my own view on about almost everything and I tend to envision things in the perfect, but unfortunately unrealistic, form. And when my idealism is disturbed, I become uneasy. That's exactly what happened the other night. One simple board game got my brain all worked up, reflecting on the idealism I hold.
