when she writes

Dear Blog, (mcm klakar la plak)

i so love this magazine.. i started reading it at the doctors, while waiting for my turn..

Sometime this week, i read an article bout the 10 mysteries of human beings…

1. Blushing: experts still dont know why our body reacts in such a way that our emotions become the obvious.. usually happens when we are shy or embarrassed.  logically, our conscious mind resents this uncontrollable reaction just because..

2. Laughter: its contagious for sure.  a research team studied when people would laugh most, either at a normal remark OR a really really very funny joke.. Most people reacted with more spark to the former rather than the latter.. a normal remark eg: imagine if there were toilets in the lifts..Also, researchers say that males are more prone to being funny, while females prefer to hear jokes.

3. Teenage life: All other creatures jump from their childhood to adulthood unlike us humans.  This teenage period is a transition zone where hormones start taking charge affecting the mind and physique.  The teenage life provides a space where young adults get to learn how to ‘mate’ a.k.a. flirt without posing a threat to the real adults.

4. Pubic hair: perhaps i shall not elaborate on this?

5. Nose-picking: most school children admit to having the habit of nose-picking.  I do it to keep the tunnels clear..=)

6. Kissing: Lips of a human has much more senses than other areas of the body.  So, it gives a sensual and satisfactory feeling; according to the magazine of course..

7. dreaming: still a mystery.. though it was said that dreams help us remember events and allow the emotions associated to slide by.  so, we get emotionally detached from most memories?

8. altruism: this is about how we do something for someone, and we sort of have our hidden agenda behind.  (x ikhlas??).. according to the magazine, we offer help to others so that we ourselves move up the hierarchy by knowing that the relationship built will somehow will benefit oneself in the future.. personally, i disagree coz i do believe in keikhlasan..=)

i cant recall the other 9 & 10..

Thats all for now folks!! this magazine will probably never fail to intrigue  me.. especially with the physchological related articles..

Yours truly,

Mariah..

ps: i dont quite understand signing your own blog.. this is my first, for no particular reason. =)
