Why do people like science ?

Period 1 today was science. We continued watching the 'in the womb' episode which taught us all about what happened in the mother's stomach, what the baby was doing, how it moved and what not. So, in other words, it was interesting but really gross as well. After all,i'm sure most girls in class wouldn't really want to give birth anymore. I guess its good for one thing that you're educating people but its another to frighten them . After watching a women give birth ( along with the groans from the class ) I really think pregnancy is .. such a hassle. I mean, who doesn't want children ? But in this stage of my life, especially after that video, I don't think I want to get pregnant.

So instead of talking about it to Joyce and giving her flashbacks of what she saw in the video, I asked my mum. I actually acknowledge her pain and effort into giving birth. Before that, all I imagined was one or two pushes and the baby was out .. but no guys, its not right. It involves contractions and what not. Alright, so here's a story that i learnt from my parents.

Apparently, I was on the verge of death. And as my dad loves to rephrase himself a thousand times ' Lucky we paid for that good doctor '. So, how was i about to die ? I was supposedly being strangled by my own umbilical cord, wrapped around my neck. As described by dad, I was blue when i came out and lucky for me, the doctor cut off the cord and immediately gave me an oxygen supply. Now, i'm alive. LOL. Well, after hearing that, all I wanted to do was knock on the door of that doctor and give him a thankyou and a priceless hug. I really owe him everything.

Despite the video that we finished, apparently, I'm going to be dissecting eyeballs tmrw in period 3. I don't know why but im terribly excited. However, I am terribly sure that i'd be grossed out before I even cut into the eye. LOLOL, but hey, I could cut a heart, kidney and .. i think that was it ? well, without hesistation. So, hopefully , I'll do fine.

Well, that's it guys. Goodnight :)
