Opportunity Cost

There come times in one's life that really allow you to ponder on some of the abstract models that you have been taught in schooling. Indeed, for me, it was the split second decision of either going to the toilet and relieving my busting bowels, or making my train, with the next in 15 minutes.

What is love?

So what are my thoughts on this particularly sensitive and vulnerable topic? Well, i wouldn’t say that i can say much regarding love because being only a youngling in my last year of teenager life, i can’t say i’ve had the most extensive observation of the feeling. Personally though, love is a powerful emotion, one from the depths of your being, literally, considering the limbic system is actually rather deep inside your brain.

The American Dream

Things may have changed in the land of the free but one thing never will - the desire to own a property; to live off the land - and that my friend, is the American Dream. It never hit me till now, but my mum has always wanted the American Dream and it pains me to see that it will be extremely difficult for her to get any decent property and that she will eventually settle for some sub par apartment.

The joy of the midnight jog

So midnight runs normally conjure up images of getting in the car with your mates and driving out to the nearest 24-hour fast food chain, probably MacDonalds. As of recent though, they have come to mean jogging past the midnight mark in attempts to "cut", ironically for the prize of a glorious shouted meal. On such jogs i have undergone many epiphanies, particularly regarding assignments i seem to be perpetually all-night-ering for. It's no doubt that exercise definitely wakes me from the coma-inducing properties of biology study, you could say it helps jog the memory of ideas that could benefit my study.
