If all the parts exploded at the same time, it might be such an extreme experience that we would probably black out. If all areas start closing down at the same time, wouldn't it create a sort of short circuit in our brain? Can we process all that information at the same time so that we'd...

I don't know what happens after death but I've always imagined dying feels the same as the moment when you're waiting to fall asleep and you wonder what happens to your mind when you finally do fall asleep - it feels like entering a sort of void. Since I don't really believe in heaven or any of...

Well... If you think about extremes in the form of a line where you have for example heaven at one and end hell at the other - how do you know hell is at one end and not in the middle if you don't know that a middle or another extreme exist? What I mean is that for example "being in hell" could...

Because atleast at first, it makes you high! :-) Well, falling in love with someone atleast - maybe not so much when you think about your siblings, friends or family :relief: There's always several ways of looking at something: you can look it from a scientifical or some other kind of...

Actually, a Chinese person told me once that Chinese is difficult. So there you go :-) Chinese grammar may be easy but you get into trouble with the tones and I also found the way of thinking (in the language) different, hence slightly "difficult". In my oppinion languages are easy or...

I used to smoke every day but I smoked so little (maybe 1-3 cigs a day) that I figured it'd be just the same if I just quit. Now I smoke only if I go out to a bar etc - drinking and going out are the things that I associate the most with inhaling toxines ^^; You also have the kind of people...

I don't... Well, maybe if I'm in a hurry, I might run around the flat while brushing my teeth but I always go back to the bathroom in the end ;) Another thing I find very very odd is brushing your teeth in the shower o_O! My sister used to do that but then she got an electronic toothbrush, she...

I've always wondered how English would've turned out without the French influence.... (sort of unrelated to the topic but had to say it anyway :blush: )

British. Definitely. ^^ I had a boyfriend who was from Hong Kong and he could laugh endlessly over really disgusting stuff (people getting hurt, body excrements and so on) and I just couldn't understand why exactly did he find it funny. Later on someone told me that Asians think this kind of...

I think that's an interesting thought.Right now it's way too late so I can't think of anything smart to say but the idea is interesting nonetheless :)

I got Japanese... o_o I don't know if I'm very polite (I hope I am! ^^; ) but I certainly do worry about what people think of me.

Wow, if I lived in Dennmark, I'd double my income! :p How much do you have to spend on rent, though? And food? I definitely don't eat much and the 200e I have for food etc seems very insufficient most of the time ^^; (I'm not complaining, though! ^^; ) "and from your observations, what would...

Same here. I never understood the fuss about Leonardo DiCaprio when I was younger and only pretended to fancy him because everyone else did, too :blush: I prefer a face that shows some personality... If someone's just pretty, it's just completely boring to me. I seem to be the only person who...

I'd say that a good teacher is inspiring.

In Finland pretty much everyone moves awya form their parents' house when when they hit 18 or 19 - or 20 the latest! ;) Here, the govenment gives money to students for a certain period of time providing that they have get enough study credits each year (minimum is 2,7 credits a year, my Japanese...

I used to hate Bach when I still studied playing the piano but now I don't anymore - go figure. I think my favourites from the list are Saint-Saens, Debussy (definitely) and Bach. Also Vivaldi and Chopin are nice.

What a silly idea... It's like when a kid's hamster dies and the parent buys a new hamster that looks exactly the same o_O The only reason why it'd make atleast some sense is when you have an animal that has really good genes, maybe they'll actually do that in the future when they need new...

That really sucks *_* I didn't know working in Japan can be like that! I hope that people who are going to Japan to work know this...

Also, I think that the case is that they haven't changed the spelling since the great vowel shift so consequently the spelling doesn't match the current pronunciation. If they wanted to change the spelling fo English now, it'd be an almost impossible task: how do they define what is the...
