There are these things that I do, though silly and inconsequential, that fill me with this giant overwhelming inexplicable sense of pride, and good feeling, and positive self-esteem.
1. When I bypass the fridge filled with juice and soda, spend 17 minutes to use an extremely un-intuitive juicer to obtain 3/4ths of a cup of lemon-orange-citrus juice.
2. When I know i can gun the engine of my car to go through a yellow light with ease, but slow down and stop anyways
3. When I could EASILY shoplift a popsicle from the place that sells Pearl Milk Teas at Oakridge mall, but decide not to, because the girl who sells them to me is rather cute, for an asian girl..
4. When people leave stuff in my car, and forget about it, but I remind them anyways
5. When people pass GO on monopoly, and forget to collect their $200, but i remind them when nobody else does
6. When i clean the room, for no apparent reason, and it ends up looking spotless. (i may be completely alone in that one)
Does doing these things make me a better person? Nope. But it definitely makes it easier for me to stomach some of the meaner things I do; it's sort of like an internal balance system. One small good deed, is enough to keep me feeling good about myself. :D

Number 5 is not only gramatically flawsed, but it's untrue! And even if you didn't remember you REFUSED to give the 200 when they DID remember.
grammatically flawed* not flawsed..
and i don't need to do it all the time. i'm saying, it makes me feel good if i do it just once. and i have!
yea and you definitely do not give back stuff when they forget it *cough rohit's sunglasses*
