Life in Technicolor

Adapted from the classic Mischel (1989) study on delaying gratification.
Cute until beh tahan, please! T.T Check out their dilemma faces and all the "physical contact" they engage in with the marshmallow :3 If I were in the experiment when I was a kid, I'd probably be repelled at the sight of marshmallows - delay gratification champion. Can't say the same if you put the marshmallow in a rocky road though <3 <3
Check out the kid in the last frame! Too cute.


If you watch through the whole thing, go here for the explanation. :) I remember doing something similar to this in Dr. Anasu's class. I liked this one though, cos it was short and pretty easy to go through. 

I love youtube.

I do, however, dislike how the uni mail system has integrated itself with Google. Why? Because now my uni mail and Gmail acts as two conflicting Google mails, where I can't be logged into both at once! It is absolutely bullocks how I can be signed-in in one website, but not the other, because it's under different accounts (e.g. Logged-in to uni website = inability to sign-in to Youtube because my current Youtube username is under the other gmail account). Does anyone get thisssss (or am I babbling to myself)! WHY GOOGLE, WHY. I love you for so many reasons. This - not one of them. Does anyone have any solutions for me (that do not include signing out of one to use the other - cos that's what I've been doing, which is really getting annoying)? I just realised how whinny i've become (justification/rationalisation: it's only todayy!). I blame it on today's weather. 

Today, we ended up in Forum because Interval was closed (union on lockdown after summer socials). Okay that wasn't so bad, but it was raining. And my umbrella went to Milton Keynes. Okay it didn't go there. My flat mate borrowed it, and she went there = me no payung. SO FINE. We walked to Forum; the waitress was reallyyy sweet cos there was about 10+ people, none of which could decide on what he or she wanted to eat OR drink (for a good 15-20 minutes at least). So we started with coffee and water and such (and of course, there will be the alcos starting in the day). Horrible choice for such a gloomy day *personal opinion. Also, I think we were all being really student-y and broke as per usual.  T.T Useful part of today: Totally coveting Erin's boots (carousels around it please!!!!), Emily's dress AND raincoat & Selma's mad big umbrella that could fit three people.

Fun fact of the day: Algeria's in North Africa, near Morocco. *proud when I could continue convo by saying Zim is in South Africa. Let me be proud for a while please. Geography is my worst subject *no passion; and I thank God every time I think of how I never had to sit for another Geography paper after PMR. *phew. No seriously, you can't imagine how bad my geography is *toys with the idea of geography of Malaysia and I feel dumb already.

Today's weather? It rained only all day long. Wouldn't be a problem if I were home and had a car *hint hint*. Sunday bus services are really =,=. Also, kawan yang I keluar ngan ni semua x suka tunggu atau bayar untuk bas. Terpaksalah I ikut jalan balik rumahku! -,- Oh and I cannot believe SY is going home tomorrow *imagining hijacking her ticket and going home too :D*

Oh and those Nike shoes I saw in Office yesterdayyyyyy. None of which i'll ever think of wearing, but coveting, that's a different story. Ah, how it feels to be broke. T.T Please donate to the "save Michelle's eating habits fund" please. :x Lemme go find those nike shoes to show you *acting as if I have readers or like i'm having a conversation *lifeless.

Okay I just realised how I might have lost my uh sense of dressing. *stares at shoes that I will never be able to look good in. *silent wailing in the corner. :( *dreams of Bicester. Hi boyf do you want to go to Bicester with me? *beams

Ah... How it is to be broke. LOL.

Oh btw, exams are over! I will be home soooooon! In seven weeks. -.- I hope to update more. :) Rain, rain please go away! I can't be walking in all this slushyyy. wuwuwu.
