lately,
its been a routine for me to head down to my school's library,
loan the laptop and start blogging or doing other stuffs.
(besides stoning blankly into space that is)
so please do mind me if i were to update my blog TWICE daily.

speaking of hunger...

WELL.. that was basically it!
haha!
boring day i'm having so far........
since this is kinda a short entry..
let me share sth interesting i read in the last chapter of
"Why the toast lands butter side down - The science of Murphy's Law"
When you most want to pour someting carefully, you spill it.
It happens all the time: you want to pour just a tiny drop from a glass; the drinks gets to the rim and then completely forgets its physics and toddles down the side of the glass, along your arm and off your elbow. What causes the water to lose the plot like this? Has it forgotten which way is down? The answer to this explains why water droplets form, and why the shower curtains clings. Water is sticky. A water molecule is slightly electrostatically charged, slightly negative at the top and slightly positive at the sides, so when two molecules come close together they tend to be drawn together, like pieces of paper towards a plastic comb.
lets do another one.
Traffic Lights are always red when you are in a hurry.
There goes that amygdala (a part of your brain that provides the emotional flavour of our experience) again. How can anything as lifeless as traffic lights conspire against you? Well, I suppose amygdala has a point this time - traffic lights in the centre of the cities are usually coordinated across a number of junctions. The traffic managers allow cars to be travelling at 15mph, so provided you keep your speed down the lights will change magically in your favour. But when you're in a hurry you will be forever sprinting, then sprinting off again, then screeching to a halt . . . In the end your average speed through the junction is of course, 15mph. But your brain is full of traffic light conspiracy theories.
It is generally true, also, that you are more likely to meet a red light than a green, by a factor of two to one.
Modern Junctions often involve special filter lights and pauses for pedestrians, so traffic lights usually end up being red about two thirds of the time.
ok..
i thought of sharing another one.
but my groupmates are here.
we're doing our project.
alrighty...
ciao!
