Rhonda SG Aiyoh... sbst was looking for me hours ago! I was still at work. littlestream went off to work? Sighz... her absence is sorely felt! MG not gonna be around for an entire week?!! Haiz... So... who's here?
Rhonda SG Actually, I was sitting there waiting for the shuttle bus, but it never came and I got impatient. Plus, I was feeling tired from the day's hard work and wanted a shower real bad! And, CSI provided the extra erm... impetus! Y'know, the journey to my workplace by taxi is just 10 mins during off-peak periods and it can be up to 45 mins by bus!!
Rhonda SG OK, I'm growing old... Just the day before, I used a roll of tape and a pair of scissors, then, I placed them ... 'somewhere'... Now, I cannot, for the life of me, find them!!
laurence82 SG better than me i am 23 and i am so absent minded already last time used to haolian my ability to do mental calculations, good memory now like frigging old man
Rhonda SG Lau, I guess it's because of stress and the lack of good-quality sleep. That can render even a teenager absent-minded. You can't exactly concentrate and perform well in tasks that require brainwork, if you don't have enough sleep.
Rhonda SG Oh, I heard that there are some students who'll take Gingko Biloba towards their exam time. Gingko Biloba is an herb that's known to improve memory and brain power. Don't know how true it is though. Maybe, it has a psychological effect on some folks.
laurence82 SG Hmm strange thing is, i can remain awake for hours if there is some work to do, like exams to study for, when my frens are all sleeping like log but after the exam, i sleep like log for many hours But nah, i dont think its the stress, just purely being absentminded....
stellazio SG wtf wtf wtf.. i got a lesson from 9-11 tmr,and my next lesson is from 5-7 all because of deepavali... wtf wtf wtf..
Rhonda SG /me hands stella Listerine to rinse his mouth with... Wah... so much expletives. Hey, just do what my classmates and I used to do - go for a buffet, or go catch a movie, then return to school for the remaining lesson(s)! No big deal mah!
stellazio SG WHAT??Return to sch after entertainment..can you really concentrate after movies and stuff?if i happen to go orchard,i most certainly won't feel like returning..
stellazio SG in sports competitions(exams) they are banned..for it gives unfair advantages to those who uses it..likewise they should do so for exams..i mean if you wana cheat,must cheat with pride and guts..den got "honour"..
Rhonda SG It is not cheating per se because it's not like you squirreled in some paper with answers on it and sneaked peeks at it, or peeped at your friend's paper. You're just doing things to make sure you are at optimal performance level. If you call that cheating, then, having enough sleep before your paper can be considered cheating too mah! Cuz that would give you an 'unfair advantage' over those who didn't sleep because they ling2 shi2 bao4 fo2 jiao3! Right? Then, how about those whose moms make them drink Chicken Essence? Is that 'cheating' as well? Stella, what have you been taking? It's messing up your mind and your critical faculties!!
