I chanced upon a very old issue of Psychology Today( it's an American magazine, please don't ask how I found it) and I saw a part on "Six degrees of Separation". What's that? I'm no expert in psychology, so I took a look anyway. It turns out, it's the theory that anyone, I repeat, anyone on the planet can be connected to any other person on the planet through a chain of acquaintances that has no more than five intermediaries. Five. Plus, it's been proven by American sociologist Stanley Milgram. He asked participants in Midwest of America to send a package to a stranger in Massachusetts. They were to pass it on to someone whom they felt was the most able to pass the package to the stranger the fastest, and this is repeated on.

It was expected to take hundreds, even thousands of intermediaries before the package reached the target, but it only took on average 5-7 people. So, if I wanted to send a package to, say, some person in Africa, it would probably take at most 9-10 people! Pretty interesting theory, I am thinking of some way to test it out in Singapore.

-above was adapted from shanglong. interesting indeed. he said he got it from a psychological mag. but i cant see it what way is this psycological. but its very incredible and unbelievable. i've got similar thoughts with him as to how to test it out. but i'm a step different from him. imagine the things we can do. good or bad. positive or negative. its really something to think about.

Anyway can anyone share the symptoms and the signs of Dengue? I've got a mosquito bite. And i think there are others who are also going more hysterical than me when this see a reddish bump on their skin. Will we die? Omg. Cant remember from where. But someone or something (maybe from the papers) once gave me the idea that with growing affluence and space-shrinking teachnology (my god, geog..) human's immunity is weakening. Like when SARS hit, our body is too weak to form some kind of immunisation against it. Similarly when this dengue shit hits, maybe a 1cm flying, irritatting and irky insect and bring down a human with a towering height of 2m. 1cm to 2m. Thats what i call a thrashing knockout. For cockroaches, they have very good immunisation strength within them. Say you use a certain pesticide. Shieldtox. You dont change brands or version and stick with it. Everytime you see a cockroach you spray. After a period of time, you see a cockroach and you spray again, you only see him flip his body upside down, show you its private parts and its wiggling and shaking ass. Then flip itself back and continue crawling across the floor. Actually I dont really know if thier private parts can be seen when they flip their body. But I know they can grow, form or adapt to thier evironment so well that something inside thier body can defend and build an immunisation against the poison in the pesticide. So likewise, i guess our body is supposed to be similar to them and can form immunisation against diseases. But like what I've said. We're weakening. The human species is weakening. Now we can lose to a 1cm fella. So yea, morale? Small is power.
