Sleepin'

Today I read an article about the impact of the hours you sleep on your health. The research done in the US found that the volunteers who slept less than 4 hours everyday for 2 weeks have a pre-diabetic symptoms. An average of 40% of college kids in the US sleep less than 4 hours during the weekdays and around 70% of them sleep less than 8 hours. Although most of them sleep about 7/8 hours on weekends, it's still not sufficient to cover back the time loss in sleep. The researchers says that sleeping is as important as breathing, eating and drinking. An animal that doesn't sleep will die and so does a human. A healthy man should get around 7 hours of sleep everyday. Not more, not less. People that sleep more than 9 hours a day may lead to mortality and those who sleep less than 4 hours a day are the worst.

So, I guess this proves that my Philosophy of Life is quite true, huh? To all my friends out there, sleeping is important. Never ever neglect your sleep for assignments or exams. Sleep well, study well. Billy, out.

Swiss Army Knife

Swiss Army Knife or pocket knife is a multifunction tool in short. A standard official Swiss Army Knife has a knurled metal surface with a red emblem and includes a blade, a can opener/screwdriver, a reamer and a bottle-opener/screwdriver/wire stripper. Nowadays, the swiss knives are having more and more tools and functions, such as cork-screw, scissors, toothpick, tweezers, pen, LED light, digital clock and even MP3 player. The 2 main manufacturers of the Swiss Army Knife are Victorinox and Wenger from Switzerland [obviously].

This is the Swiss Army Knife that my cousin bought me all the way from Switzerland. It's a sovenier from her and her husband who went there for honeymoon. It's the official one that Swiss army really use. Hehe.. I like it very much. Thank you, Pui Yee and Eric. Billy, out.
