writing down notes

woke up at 12 as on most days this week, made myself a nice turkey & egg toast for breakfast and started watching TED talks. add a sugarfree red bull and life is dandy. the synthetic happiness concept is interesting - ive come across is in studies before but the term was introduced to me today. it explains a lot, why people who seemingly have it all are often unhappy and the ones who dont have much, are quite happy indeed. the effect of income on happines has been solved some time ago and makes perfect sense - once u have about decent income in your surrounding more money wont increase happiness. but then this synthetic happiness thing comes in and explains a lot of unhappiness.

the other day i also got inspired to consider studying again. probably one of those ideas that die soon. instead of looking into the bureaucratic application system of the expensive turkish universities i am looking at options at the Finnish ones. i doubt there arent many really practical options for someone who lives abroad but but....    media studies would be interesting for me i believe.
