Friday 22 June 2007

summer solstice

Today's supposed to be the longest day, where daylight is the longest, where the sun is at its northernest point. It's also the mark of the begining of summer in the northern hemisphere.

But the sun was no where to be seen. It was cloudy/misty. Warmish. But the skies were as grey as how I was feeling. Grey, not even blue... Damn weather!

But then again, it was also noted that summer solstice can also be on 22nd June. Hmmm...

Apparently a report says that Friday 22nd June is the happiest day of the year (in Britain I guess). And a doctor, Dr Cliff Arnal even came up with a happiness formula O + (N x S) + Cpm/T + He.

O = Being outdoors and outdoors activities
N = Connecting with nature
S = Socialising
Cpm = Childhood memories
T = Temperature
H = Holidays

Wait a minute... the equation doesn't really add up. I guess He = H = Holidays? Oh well... no one's perfect.

So in order for happiness, I guess I need to be outdoors particularly connecting with nature as well as socialising, doing things that bring back childhood memories which by some ways the temperature of my childhood memories plays a part in it, also I must not forget to have some holidays element in it.

Hmmm... is this possible? Or just a whole loada crap? Well, at least the recent BBQ does have some relavant elements to it

There should be certain plans for the longest daylight day of the year. More activities should be done then. But what? Then also, there should be activities planned for the happiest day of the year. What?

I should really plan ahead for things like this...

So let's just wait and see if Friday 22nd June is really the happiest day of the year...
