Apologies, yesterday wasn't Beethoven Day. I mixed up the real Beethoven Day with the arbitary day allocated by the online music station beethoven.com to play all the works by the Wildhaired Genius. (Now will u put the chair down and stop threatening to kill me?? oh-great-The Twin?)
It was an amazing feat for me to stuff biochem down my throat by afternoon today. Though that was great, I'm now struggling to remember what I did for zellbiologie the day before. I guess I could be approaching the limits of my not-so-infinite capacity to store information. Since almost all of the Singaporeans here are perhaps performing the same near-superhuman acts of chomping chapters, perhaps, after we die, our brains could be examined for signs of atrophy.
It would be interesting to find out what effect mugging does to the brain; and what could be done about it. I certainly hope and I don't think my brain's for the better though. I've been losing hairs lately and i'm really starting to lose weight (check out my cool stretch marks man!), something I don't think I ever did even in the army. It could also validate my longstanding hypothesis that females in research don't age at all, vis-a-vis my old supervisor back home, my former supervisor here, and the current grad student in my lab, who looks like a freakin' high school student despite being 25 or 26. Perhaps mugging affects the sexes differently; male brains implode while female brains thrive.
Hrm, someone must really do a project on this man, this is research gold, as what my uber boss will say..
