Dementia Test!

It's that time of year for us to take our annual senior citizen test.
Exercise of the brain is as important as exercise of the muscles. As we grow older, it's important to keep mentally alert. If you don't use it, you lose it! Below is a very private way to gauge how your memory compares to the last test. Some may think it is too easy but the ones with memory problems may have difficulty.
Take the test presented here to determine if you're losing it or not. The spaces below are so you don't see the answers until you've made your answer. OK, relax, clear your mind and begin.


1. What do you put in a toaster?


Answer: 'bread.' If you said 'toast' give up now and do something else..
Try not to hurt yourself.

If you said, bread, go to Question 2.


2. Say 'silk' five times. Now spell 'silk.' What do cows drink?



Answer: Cows drink water. If you said 'milk,' don't attempt the next question. Your brain is over-stressed and may even overheat. Content yourself with reading a more appropriate literature such as Auto World. However, if you said 'water', proceed to question 3.




3. If a red house is made from red bricks and a blue house is made from blue bricks and a pink house is made from pink bricks and a black house is made from black bricks, what is a green house made from?






Answer: Greenhouses are made from glass. If you said 'green bricks,' why are you still reading these???
If you said 'glass,' go on to Question 4.




4. It's twenty years ago, and a plane is flying at 20,000 feet over Germany (If you will recall, Germany at the time was politically divided into West Germany and East Germany ). Anyway, during the flight, two engines fail. The pilot, realizing that the last remaining engine is also failing, decides on a crash landing procedure. Unfortunately the engine fails before he can do so and the plane fatally crashes smack in the middle of 'no man's land' between East Germany and West Germany ... Where would you bury the survivors? East Germany , West Germany ,

Or no man's land'?



Answer: You don't bury survivors.
If you said ANYTHING else, you're a dunce and you must stop. If you said, 'You don't bury survivors', proceed to the next question..




5. Without using a calculator - You are driving a bus from London to

Milford Haven in Wales . In London , 17 people get on the bus.
In
Reading , 6 people get off the bus and 9 people get on.
In
Swindon, 2 people get off and 4 get on.
In
Cardiff , 11 people get off and 16 people get on.
In
Swansea , 3 people get off and 5 people get on.
In Carmathen,
6 people get off and 3 get on.
You then arrive at Milford
Haven ..


Without scrolling back to review, how old is the bus driver?


Answer: Oh, for crying out loud!
Don't you remember your own age?
It was YOU driving the bus!!




If you pass this along to your friends, pray they do better than you.



PS: 95% of people fail most of the questions!!

Comfort zone

I havent been here like for ages! Pardon me. It's that i've been enjoying reading others blogs rather than writing on my own page. I like being random and not specific to any topic so those of you who read this blog, dont expect too much :P its my training field for making conversation, language practice and a bit of life story-telling box.

Yeah, comfort zone. Right now im in Birmingham, writing this on the couch in the mild cold living room. I've been creating my comfort zone every time i settled down at one place and now im running from it. Too comfortable is not very good for me because i will tend to forget everthing else happen outside the zone and live in it, communicating with others over the internet mostly lol. And thats why i seem like to be leave alone. Im not! Kacau me for a bit, pull me back to reality xp

This is the end of our second week of Term 2 and classes are much more interesting than last year (although i keep missing at least 2 classes per week). The modules are fascinating and more realistic, something that i want to give more thoughts on them rather than just read and memorize all the data. Was thinking to specialise in Ecology last night but i think i cant be arsed/bothered to redo all the registration thingy.


And...our student union is now officially open. yeh, a bit too late but a good thing to tell ya all lol. i've been to the pool room 3 times since last week because its auwsumm! 8 pool tables with a music box sounds cool to ya ;) Do visit our uni as we have One World Week next week where there are loaads of things you can participate and watch ;)

Thats it, mau minta diri.

Laters.

1st week of 2010

First thing first, 'tis freezin'! We spent our new year's eve with horror movies with a bottle of pepsi, kinda epic that night lol. New year? Still feel the same, quote from Nain: different year, same shit. The best thing happened in the week; it was snowing heavily last 2 days. Although it's very bright and sunny today, the white remainder is still covering the street. That is what i'm expecting for winter lol :P but like i said, it's cold freezin'. Max temperature today is -1 degree Celcius and i have to go out to town.

Our second term will start next monday and i don't have any idea how it will be. Our director emailed us labs timetable for other Biology streams but not ours and based on my timetable, my lectures will start on Wednesday if our labs pushed forward. And for sure, the cold temperature will be another thing to consider.

Some pics fellas ;)



First years, their first snow :)




Our Gibbet Hill!



Mr. Muscle, hoho


Ah, i found this photo in one of my mate's album.


Well, personally i dont agree with this. Just add a few switches for men, and i will nod my head, lol jokes. Men are not robots, just one switch to control. My mate's a guy, and i think he's trying to say women are that complicated in all aspects. Guys, we also have the same number of switches, but there are hidden. We are all human. Allah created us with similar basics, remember that.

I need to shower now, hasta luwego!
