Ha I guess everyone back home’s all relaxed in antipipation of the holiday tmr:) Happy birthday Singapore! Ha and happy birthday to Gloria and Mingde as well:) Really glad to have gotten the oppurtunity to know you guys:)
Anyway its been an interesting week..I think of my elder sister everytime I learn something new about babies and their development..we learnt about "theory of mind" last week. apparantly children don't develop theory of mind until they're about 4..before that, they literally don't know how to lie, because they believe that everybody thinks the same way and they have no concept of different people having different thoughts..so they assume that everyone else knows what they know and they don't realise that they can lie..ha I thought that was really interesting:) so kids are truly innocent cos they just don’t have it in them to lie:) and when they do learn how to lie, they only have to know the appropriate times to lie (aka white-lying) and then they’re all set for the adult world..Its kind of sad to think that lying’s a part of the development of a child but I guess its all a part of life..
ahh its cold tonight. enjoy the warmth back in singapore guys:)
