The mystery of the showering divers
Have you ever wondered this before??The mystery of the showering divers...After completing a dive, competitors swim to a ladder, climb out of the pool and head immediately to a bank of showers..Then, in full view of the crowd and cameras, they SHOWER appearing only to wash their hair and arms..The divers will then receive their scores while still showering off. What's the purpose of this?
Theories have ranged from
'to get the chlorine off' ----> 'they want to have fun'
Neither are the reason..!
Divers shower in between each dive to keep their muscles warm after getting out of the pool. The temperature of the pool water and the air are usually different (the pool is usually around 80 degrees, with the air temperature between 68 and 72 degrees). This difference can cause muscle tightness. To combat this, divers warm up in either the showers or a hot tub.
(Although we're still a bit unclear as to why the showers are out in the open.The water cube cost over $200 million to build. They couldn't have put a privacy wall in?! Hahahaha)
Anyway, have you ever realized another thing? As you walk, your hands will swing..Your left hand swings as your right leg steps out and vice versa..Yeah, you can still walk by swinging both your hands and legs at the same direction..But try walking with your hand swinging and your leg walking at a different speed..
Example : Your legs run, but your hands sway very slowly..You can't right...? Your hands will somehow follow the speed of your legs or vice versa..
Well, I tried and experimented it on myself yesterday, and I find it difficult to keep both of my legs and hands walk and swing at a different speed XP
The naughty tricks our brain's trying to play ....
And there she is..trying to open the card we gave her

Look out for the other body parts. Watch their hands, arms and legs, which tend to be limited, stiff, and self-directed when the person is lying. The hands may touch or scratch their face, nose or behind an ear, but are not likely to touch their chest or heart with an open hand.
Look out for microexpressions. Microexpressions are facial expressions that flash on a person's face for a fraction of a second and reveal the person's true emotion underneath their facade one. Some people may be naturally sensitive to them, but almost anybody can easily train to be able to detect microexpressions. Typically, in a person who is lying, their microexpression will exhibit the emotion of distress, characterized by the eyebrows being draw upwards towards the middle of the forehead (sometimes causing short lines to appear across the forehead skin).
Check for sweating. People tend to sweat more when they lie. (However, some people may sweat a lot more during nervousness/shyness.)
Mind exaggerated details. See if they are telling you too much, like "My mom is living in France, isn't it nice there? Don't you like the Eiffel tower? It's so clean there." Too many details may tip you off to their desperation to get you to believe them.
Notice the person's eye movements. Contrary to popular belief, a liar does not always avoid eye contact. Humans naturally break eye contact and look upwards when remembering something. Liars may deliberately make eye contact to seem more sincere. Liars also tend to blink more often. A typical right-handed person tends to look towards their left (your right) when remembering something that actually happened (remembered images, sounds and internal dialogue) and towards their right or downwards (constructed images, sounds and kinesthetic sensations) when they're making something up.
Be sensitive to the person's emotional expression.
Like timing and duration, which tends to be off when someone is lying. Emotions can be delayed, remain longer than usual, then stop suddenly. Likewise, they might not match appropriately with verbal statements. And, as with smiling, facial expressions of a poor liar will be limited to the mouth area.
Pay close attention to the person's reaction to your questions. A liar will often feel uncomfortable and turn their head or body away, or even subconsciously put an object between the two of you. Also, while an innocent person would go on the offensive, a guilty person will often go immediately on the defensive.
Be conscious of their usage of words. Verbal expression can give many clues as to whether a person is lying, such as:
-Using/repeating your own exact words when answering a question
-NOT using contractions
-Avoiding direct statements or answers
-Speaking excessively in an effort to convince
-Speaking in a monotonous tone
-Leaving out pronouns (he, she, it, etc.)
-Speaking in muddled sentences
-Equivocation or "Non-Answers". For example: Q:"Are these your drugs?" A:"I don't even smoke." Q:"Did you kill that man?" A:"I don't even own a gun." In essence, these subjects ARE answering TRUTHFULLY, however, the answers they are providing do not address the actual questions in any way.
-Using humor and sarcasm to avoid the subject
Allow silence to enter the conversation. Observe how uncomfortable and restless the person becomes when there is a pause.
Change the subject quickly. While an innocent person would be confused by the sudden shift in the conversation and may try to return to the previous subject, a liar will be relieved and welcome the change. You may see the person become more relaxed and less defensive.
Watch his or her throat. A person may constantly be either trying to lubricate their throat when he/she lies OR swallowing to avoid the tension built up.A person`s voice can also be a good lie detecter.Does your pal suddenly start talking faster or ultraslow? Does her/his tone go up and down,or is she or he clearing her throat a lot? Either your bud is coming down with a bad sore throat or she/he is lying.
The eyes tell all.It is usually hard for liars to look you in the eye while saying something they know is not true.Are your friend`s eyes focused on you or are they looking at the floor? Fibbers also blink a lot (subconsciously hiding their eyes ) or their gaze may dart around the room.
So I guess, after reading this, I assume that you shall not fall for any lies anymore?? XP
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------An ignorant robot who doesn't know anything..I am sure it will be hilarious..! Can't wait for it to be released..According to Bryan, only BOYS think the robot is cute..Which is so untrue because I think it is cute too...He made a conclusion that I am a boy..! *argh* Being the not so innocent girl, I made a statement saying that only GIRLS take accountancy..So does that mean he's a girl too?!?! *evil laugh*
Here I come GSC! There goes my $$$$$$$
Here’s another chat we had when we were in the bus (Ratna, SokYeng and I were standing as we talked)
Ratna: Why is people so scared when it is at night?
SokYeng: Ya, why ah?? We not so scared when it is in the afternoon compared to night..
Me: Maybe because crime happens more at night than afternoon? Plus, afternoon got more people loiter around compared to night cuz most of them will stay at home at night?
SokYeng: But crime do happen in the afternoon too..Plus, if we were to talk about *unknown beings* ,they are around in the afternoon too..So why??
Ratna and I: Yeah, I wonder..
So what do you guys think?? The question somehow put quite a big question mark in my head..And I am still wondering …WHY????? Why are people more afraid to walk around at night compared to afternoon? Maybe because it is bright??? No idea @.@
PUTTING ALL THE CONVERSATIONS ASIDE, HERE I AM TO SHARE WITH YOU PEOPLE SOMETHING SWEET and CUTE I'VE FOUND ONLINE (Just in case you people didn't realize, although I know most of my friends already feel very sick of me mentioning..... I LOVE BABIES!!)
