Tonight, Yeu Sheng and I got a little hungry for a midnight snack whilst studying pathology so we went to the only thing close to us still open at midnight: McDonalds. Only when we got there did we realise that McDonalds is such a popular place for students. At least 5 tables were filled with students who had books and laptops open (and of course their finished McDonalds meal). I figured there must be a reason for this. Here are a couple of possible explanations I came up with:

1) In McDonalds, the lights are bright and there is no bed to distract you (i.e. you don't feel sleepy)

2) The students want to save on electricity bills so they study in McDonalds

3) Studying late at night puts your hormonal balance out of whack and makes you crave junk food

4) The junk food makes your brain work better so students like to have a dose before they knuckle down for the night (unlikely but hey, who knows what's possible)

But anyway, whatever the reason, hopefully those students successfully pass their exams =) Time for me to get back to my studies as well *sigh*



Oh, incidentally my last post was my 100th post for this blog...hooray! ^^
