less than 24 hours after i came back, i have the urge to go back to china agin. stress, immediately after i step out of the plane, i realize there's so much waiting for me; things that i have must do and that i have little control over. stress was relatively absent for much of this trip back to china, and i'm missing it dearly.

selective attention

••Our attention is selective and limited

•We see things that are not there; and we fail to see things that are there.

•Our sensory systems amplify some stimuli and diminish others

•

•Virtually everything we see, hear, touch, smell, and taste involves a perceptual distortion

•The majority of information processing happens unconsciously

Sudden Light

I have been here before,
But when or how I cannot tell:
I know the grass beyond the door,
The sweet keen smell,
The sighing sound, the lights around the shore...
- Dante Gabriel Rossetti, 1854

Days in Shanghai

Wed, 07 Jun 2006 00:52:19 GMT

So I spent 4 days in Shanghai with couple of friends. I have to say that I enjoyed almost every minute of it...other than the fact that i had to share the bed with other MEN

We didn't get to buy a lot of stuff Since we spend a big proportion of the time and money on travelling and food. We visisted some of the top Chinese restaurants in Shanghai and sure we weren't disappointed.

Places we've been to:

It was disappointing that we rushed through some of the historical sites without spending some time to appreciate the history and art in them. I blame that on my friends because 4 days and 3 nights just isn't enough!
