1+1 is 11

People perceive things differently. The same thing in the sky could seen as a UFO or a dense area of clouds. The same facial expression could hint at care or pity, the same generous action could appear true or false.

They say that a cognitive label on events (how we decide what the event means to us) determines how we feel about it. Also, if we expect to perceive a certain thing, it is much more likely that we will see that thing.

So what?

The extreme workload due to the upcoming BEIMUN made me forget how much I really liked participating in MUN conferences. Finishing the report took heroic sacrifices of God given sleep and Grade Point Averages, and I’m glad its done. We leave for Beijing on the 12th of March; I expect it’ll be a good break from school. Recently, I’ve secretly started to wish for the end of my Junior year. Like Junioritus, you know? But its a far way off.

Right now, I’d like some rest.
