I hate it when I'm on the comp late at night blogging either here or at my personal blog, and my mum takes the car out and buys prata home! And she buys the cheese pratas for me and I always succumb to conformity and go out to the kitchen and have my pratas. Pratas are nice, but not so cool at 1:30 am at night. I feel fat when I go to sleep ugh.
Anyway, the other day I was at Villa'ge at Heeren with the rest of scband and our band teacher in charge Mrs Lee, to celebrate the coming and going of our SYF. My table consisted of most of the sec3s in band. And after eating all the really expensive(!) food, we felt a WEE bit bored.
Just after uniform check, and before leaving for syf. :D check out my hair man. it's probably still in shock for being neat a record 6 hours.
The players of the game! around half of the sec3s in band.
This is what it STARTED out as.
The runner-up, the person who refused to play, and the first to lose!
A close up of the cocktail.:D
and the winner.
Today Miss Cai will show you exactly why people suffer from lack of appetite. Mainly it's due to stress, and stress levels were VERY high in this game of danger we played. We went round in a full circle, each one having to name a famous celebrity before 5 seconds were up, conditions being the celebrity could not have been named before.
Any one who faltered or fumbled was quickly brought to her knees before a forfeit of the morbidly waiting spoon, in the pool of brown muck we had concocted from a main base of mushroom soup, watermelon juice, coconut juice, mango juice, ice lemon tea, lemon slices, and a million other stuffs.
To win, one had to have the combination of nerves of steel, the ability to think quickly under high pressure, and a strong sense of focus.
We quickly learnt the apparent expert in the game was Beatrice Yeo of 3sy, and then we knew how she was in the top 20 of the sec3 cohort. Never fumbling, never faulting, she soon emerged the champion of the game, forfeiting only once.
And the moral of the story? Stress leads to anxiety which in turn, leads to lack of appetite. Let me show you. You get stressed, cannot come up with a celebrity's name in time. You lose, and have to eat the disgusting cocktail. Which leads to poor appetite, duh.
Elementary, my dear friends. Don't you just love this blog? I put things in such simple perspective.
Ok I know I haven't explained quite enough about appetite, so here goes. Now just sit back and relax and hear me wax lyrical about appetite.
Appetite is the desire to eat and eat Veggies and fruit and fish and meat Not just that, but others too There's no end to the food we chew!
Appetite is felt as a hunger gnawing Away at the stomach, a-clawing Linked by a close interplay Digestive tract, adipose tissue plus brain too wahseh!
Decreased desire to eat is called anorexia Increased desire to eat is called hyperphagia Appetite regulation involves the gastrointestinal tract And leptin seems to provide negative feedback
