boring sick week

been sick, bored, and tired from work.
hopefully i can get out next week.

starting to think of how well is your memory.
being able to memorise things seem to have a few factors.
one of them is how well do you know the things you're suppose to remember?
for example if i ask a pri 1 kid to rmb a series of 10 numbers, most probably he can memorise and read it backwards by the end of 5 min.
but if i'm asking him now to rmb just 5 mathematical formulas on cosine, sine, tangent, at the end of 5 min, can he do it?

this idea sparked in my mind when i was doing my waitering work.
basically there're a lot of drinks in the bar, and i know most probably... less than 10% of them. so when i take orders from a group, i definitely have to get my notepad out to write down their orders.
unless, they're ordering common things like apple shooters, lychee martini, tiger, flaming lambo, etc. these are like 1 2 3 to me.
but those malibu, johnny walker blue/black/green, bacardi, blah blah blah... and those liquers which i've never heard of -_- these are like... smlj?
worse still, half the time when i don't know the drinks they order, i can't get their pronunciation right. -_-

some weird drinks.

-snow white and the 7 dwarfs
with 7 different liquors and beer, hardly anyone is able to tahan throughout

-vodka tom yan
suppose to be spicy -_-, pure vodka with sweetener of tom yan i guess

-?
forgot the name, but it's champange with orange juice, looks and sound nice.

stupid thing happened yesterday night, maybe was too tired.
left my locker key at my locker. and i didn't even close the locker. -_-
hopefully later able to find back the locker key and nothing is lost inside the locker. anyway the things inside all tan's. haha..

having a routine of visiting borders just before going to zouk.
read up on some comics and psychology stuffs.
one particular title drew my attention.
"the boy who was raised as a girl"

it's a true case-study.
brought out a lot of things to debate on for both science and social science.
nurture or nature? biology or environment? etc etc.
basically his penis got burned at 7 months old during circumcision and his parents decided to raise him up as a girl. the other fact is, he has an identical twin bro.

lots of homosexuality-related books on the shelves, together with the depression section all that.

read for free at borders~
