yay!!! after physics test tmr... finally got a little afternoon to relax myself :D Cos tmr after physics test, there will be no more lessons as MINDEF is coming to give us a talk. Then after that we will be visiting the officer cadet school. Haha.... So yar~ Can stop doing work for that afternoon. Then~ Next monday holiday again!!! Haha.... finally got another full day break. :D it will be a long weekend for me :) Can do work more slowly liao. Cos today had headache in school.... argh....
Actually nothing much to talk about~ Just wanna share this thing from my GP compre. Its about our brain power.

This paragraph is talking about how powerful a baby's mind can be. Here's some quotes:

'For some time after birth, his mother remains the extention of his own body she was during the months within her womb. The discovery that he has a unique identity, although seems obvious to us, is actually an intellectual concept in its own way as brilliant as anything we subsequently achieve.'
Yar~ So after reading this, I was like hmmm.... yar hor, how do we discover that we have our own unique identity?

'We are born only with the potential to attain such understanding, not with any ready-made mental image of the way our surroundings look, sound, feel. All must be painstakingly learned as the brain constructs, from literally billions of nerve signals, a world of images and noises, touch and tastes. From babble of information, the infant's brain rapidly discovers how to construct a world of shapes and color that is both consistent and meaningful'
So you can see how much brainpower a child needs....

Haha... so I shall end here for today. Let us marvel at the complexity of life.
