My problem is that I'm not sure which part will give me more happiness.
Or better, I think I need both forms of happiness in order to feel completely happy:
I need both the thrill of reading a good novel and the exploratory feeling of learning more and more new interesting people.

However, for some reason (I GUESS that it's a time management reason...), the two types of activity have started excluding each other after the change...

When I'm right in the middle of a highly social situation, rarely thoughts occur such as "Oh, now's the right time to read a good book!"

I kind of become a bit too immersed in the social situation that I forget everything else.

Hehe, OK, but
1) isn't that a bit... double standard-ish?
2) How do you decide which aspect of your life needs most priority? What if you have numerous priorities at the same time...?
