About
I like to put things into words and then see them string up and let people laugh at them like it's confetti. Chocolate makes my day and I love trees and rivers and this makes me seem quite the idiot but really, I'm a silly billy.

It's a lazy Saturday! I love sleeping in. Wish I hadn't signed up for bible study though, because that would mean another onslaught of ten Saturday afternoons gone (I think there are still 5 more lessons)! Still, this part 2 of Old Testament is pretty informative and really interesting, and in a bid to keep my brain strong and healthy, more new information never really killed anyone. :)
There's this link I found on Lifehack.org, The Ten Habits of Highly Effective Brains, and a couple of them caught my attention (or perhaps my brain is hardwired to recognize certain cues from a bunch of words so certain parts are more appealing to me).
'Practice positive, future-oriented thoughts until they become your default mindset and you look forward to every new day in a constructive way. Stress and anxiety, no matter whether induced by external events or by your own thoughts, actually kills neurons and prevent the creation of new ones. You can think of chronic stress as the opposite of exercise: it prevents the creation of new neurons.'

'Don't Outsource Your Brain. Not to media personalities, not to politicians, not to your smart neighbour... Make your own decisions, and mistakes. And learn from them. That way, you are training your brain, not your neighbour's.'


The most frequent mistake I make is 'outsourcing' my brain, being the lazy bum that I am. Even in school, I'd copy my homework from other people (shhh!). Of course at work, I'd do (mostly) everything myself, which isn't very good as well if certain matters call for more hands (or brains).
Yesterday was S's last day with us, before she shuttles back to Cambridge. We had lunch with the Boss, and in the afternoon even had a chocolate fountain fondue party, which everyone pretty much OD-ed on. Which is good because somewhere in the deep recesses of my (selective) memory bank, something tells me that chocolate is always good for the brain. :)
Have a great weekend, yall!
