Think of "this" as a reference (ie, pointer) variable, no different than "refForMyObject". It's just a shorthand for the reference variable that is used to reference the object you're currently "in". There are a few cases where the Java compiler special-cases its use, but still the meaning "reference variable to the current object" is consistent in all cases.
