Major assignment is slowly killing me..

Ahhh.. I have no clue about my major assignment!! It's supposed to be easier than what I have thought!! Why is this so difficult?? All the website should be redesigned to make it idiot-proof!! I have two sets of location for my gene (which I have no clue on which one to choose coz they're both from reliable sources!), and I know that there's 11 alternative transcript for my gene too.. But how are they different?? I have no clue!!!! And where are they normally expressed? All tissue? But I don't think that's the answers they want!
OMG OMG OMG. And I can bet that my protein interactions will have like 30 plus proteins interacting with it.. T.T
Tell me how to keep it to 3 000 words?? Already have 500 words and I'm not even 10% done! Nooooo!!

Hahhahaha!! Need to spend more time on it.. My things to do list keeps piling up.. Sigh...

Things to do:

  1. Learning objectives (Should I give up on ART? Hmm..)
  2. Stat Assignment 2 (done one question alr.. But the rest are hard.. T.T)
  3. Stat Project (Started.. Probably only like 5% done?)
  4. AIMS Major Assignment
Must try to do as much as possible for this week.. Coz two weeks later I would have parkinson and malaria workshop.. and they're worth a lot! Stat assignment is also due on next Friday! 

You got to sit down and do your work man!

Interesting article

Taken from http://www.dountoothers.org/lookup.html

Why do people look up when thinking?

Medical doctors have a really nasty habit. You pose them a particularly tough Imponderable and they answer, “I don’t know.” Most medical and scientific research is done on topics that seem likely to yield results that can actually help clinicians with their everyday problems. Determining why people look up when thinking doesn’t seem to be a matter of earth-shaking priority.

Ironically, some serious psychologists have decided that this question is important; have found what they think is a solution to the Imponderable and, most amazingly, found a very practical application for this new information. These psychologists are known as neurolinguists.

Neurolinguists believe that many of our problems in human interaction stem from listeners not understanding the frame of reference of the people speaking to them. Neurolinguists have found that most people tend to view life largely through one dominant sense-----usually sight, hearing, or touching. There are many clues to the sensory orientation of a person, the most obvious being his or her choice of words in explaining thoughts and feelings.

Two people with varying sensory orientation might use totally different verbs, adjectives and adverbs to describe exactly the same meaning. For example, a hearing-oriented person might say, “I hear what you’re saying, but, I don’t like the sound of your voice.” The visually-oriented person might say, “I see what you mean, but, I think your real attitude is crystal clear.” Now, the touch-oriented person (neurolinguists call them kinesthetics) would be more likely to say, “I feel good about what you are saying, but, your words seem out of touch with your real attitude.”

Neurolinguistically trained psychologists have found that they can better understand and assist clients once they have determined the clients dominant sense (what they call the client’s representational system).

All three of the above quotes meant the same thing: “I understand you, but your words belie your true emotions.” Neurolinguists adapt their choice of words to the representational system of the client, and they have found that it has been a boom to establishing client trust and to creating a verbal shorthand between psychologist and patient. Any feeling that can be expressed visually can be expressed kinesthetically or auditorily as well, so the psychologist merely comes to the patient rather than having the patient come to the psychologist---------it helps eliminate language itself as a barrier to communications.

When grappling with finding the answer to a question, most people use one of the three dominant senses to seek the solution. If you ask people what their home phone number was when they were twelve years old, three different people might use the three different dominant senses of vision, hearing and feeling. One might try to picture an image of the phone dial; one might try to remember the sound of the seven digits, as learned by rote as a small child; and the last may try to recall the feeling of dialing that phone number. Notice that all three people were trying to remember an image, sound, or feeling from the past. But, some thoughts involve creating images, sounds, or feelings.

Neurolinguists found they could determine both the operative representational system of their client and whether they were constructing new images or remembering old ones before the client even opened their mouths-----simply by observing their eye movements!

These eye movements have now been codified. There are seven basic types of eye movements, each of which corresponds to the use of a particular sensory apparatus.. Please note that these “visual accessing cues” are for the average right-handed person; left-handers eyes ordinarily move to the opposite side. Also, “left-right” designation indicates the direction from the point of view of the observer.

Direction : Thought Process
      up-right : visually remembered images
      up-left : visually constructing [new] images
      straight-right : auditory remember sounds or words
      straight-left : auditory constructed [news] sounds/words
      down-right : auditory sounds or words (“inner dialog”)
      down-left : kinesthetic feelings (which can include smell or taste)

However, there is one more type of movement, or better, nonmovement. You may ask someone a question and he will look straight ahead with no movement and with eyes glazed and defocused. This means that he is visually accessing information. Try this on your friends. It really works!

There are more exceptions and complications, and this is an admittedly simplistic summary of the complicated neurolinguists’ methodology. For example, if you ask someone to describe his first bicycle, you would expect an up-ward movement as the person tries to remember how the bike looked. If, however, the person imagines the bike as sitting in the bowling alley where you both are now sitting, the eyes might move up-left, as your friend is constructing a new image with an old object. The best way to find out is to ask your friend how he tried to conjure up the answer.

Neurolinguistics is still a new and largely untested field, but it is a fascinating one to say the least. Most of the information in this chapter was “borrowed” from the work of Richard Bandler and John Grinder. If you’d like to learn more about the subject, and we encourage you young people to do so, we’d recommend their book frogs into Princes (sic).

Now, to get back to the original Imponderable----why do people tend to look up when thinking? The answer seems to be, and it is defiantly confirmed by our experiments with many friends, that most of us, a good part of the time, try to answer questions asked of us by visualizing the answers.

The word "Heave"

While browsing the web for the correct use of word in the stupid AIMS assignment, I came across this website.. http://www.lexipedia.com/

It's super cool!! Words came alive and you can also know words that are related to it! It's sooo fascinating! Below is a image taken from the website.. You can immediately know all the usage of the word "heave"! =)) 


On the side note, its the 2nd day of Spring in Perth, Australia. And there's a mobile blood drive soon! =)) Gonna sign up tml! =))
