okay geog lecture 8 has some of the boringest readings, ever. i've been stuck on the same set of readings for the last 2 days i think. today's gonna be the day i finish it up. like, finally. but seriously, i dunno like, how to finish studying i think. too many things to cram into my brain at any one time.

well, but as we all know, i always have these "oh, school's SO interesting moments" closer to exam period. which is like, now.

especially when i learn something i really get and can apply in my day-to-day life.

the other day, i was reading about the disinhibition effect that tourists experience when holidaying in another country. they feel a lot less inhibited because they're out of their usual culture and societal norms, and in a foreign place where no one knows them, and no one expects them to adhere to whatever cultural or societal norms they might have been subjected to in their home country.

notice why so many pregnancies happen overseas?

because couples lose their inhibitions and do whatever they want.

so. i think it's not good to go on holiday with your boyfriend. you might come back with one extra person on the plane.

i realised it for myself, this disinhibition effect thingy. it's REAL STUFF, i tell you. accurate theory. not that i went on holiday with a boyfriend or anything, but really, when one goes abroad, one is less careful of what one does/says/thinks. in many many ways. your spending habits just go out of hand, your appetite increases astronomically, your alcohol-craving just shoots up and you just wanna have fun.

summer fling, Grease style. heh.



those summer nights.
