Happiness Scale

The scale is a brilliant invention. I don’t mean the weighing scale you want to destroy when you see yourself putting on a kilo, but the scale where you rate and thus finding more about yourself or others.

Psychiatrists uses them to determine whether if you’re nuts, take for example the Schizophrenia scales, by answering few questions and rating it on the scale,and voila! You might have to cancel your vacation to Tg Bungah and spend it in Tg Rambutan instead.


Even your sexual life can be represented by a simple scale. Remember when you’re 18 and you feel ashamed to be in your trunks when you’re surrounded by bikini-clad gals?, while when you’re 48 u can just walk into a nudist beach without giving a damn. It can be explained, just rate yourself here and you may find out why.

Many people have been asked or asked themselves “Are you/ Am I happy?”. As it’s a very subjective topic, I’ve decided to create the “happiness scale” to represent how I feel. Simplicity is the key, with a range of 1 to 10 (10 being happiest), rate how happy you are at that particular moment. And if I find the level is below 10, finding out the reason why should be an objective. This way I can know when and why am I affected and feeling shitty. Emm.. let me recall some significant dates…..

120606 – 8
020706 – 10
090706 – 10
050806 – 10
090706 – 10
100706 – 10
270706 - 5
300706 – 10
100906 – 9 (now 0)
011006 - 10
141006 – 8 (now 0)
011206 - 10
231206 – 10
271206 – 1
010107 – 7
050107 – 2
190107 - 2
200107 – 3
250107 – 5
260107 – 7
270107 - 8
300107 - 3

Well, knowing the situation and the reason is the black and white to the issue, but the ability to self rectifies or even finding the right solution to a problem is the gray side of it. Sometimes the devil in us just choose to ignore in doing the right thing.




So, what's your score today?
