expectations and trust

I haven't blogged in a while because I worry too much about shit that doesn't matter and people scare the shit out of me. That's a topic for another day.

Today's topic is expectations.

Over time you will develop expectations of your world. You see(k) patterns and you're not surprised when things recur. Maybe it's things you're okay with. Maybe it isn't. Perhaps you expect things from other people, maybe you still show your gratitude (well done you), maybe you've learned to live with it. There are things you might infer, given hypothetical situations, you might predict some outcome based on your expectations. In the event of a surprise, you still might have some expectation in hindsight. You compare events unfolded with what you had expected to happen. Your satisfaction or discontent with events unfolded is determined by your expectations. 

holiday takeaway

This blog has been blagging about ma gamedev stuff but I'm changing that now. On THIS blog you can read my icky thoughts and feelings. The ones I'm willing to divulge anyway. My gamedev posts will now appear on our gamedev team blog - posts pending.

Today I'm writing a little about my christmas holidays, disclosing some science on happiness, broadcasting some good sounds, and sharing my impression of a game called Gone Home.
