I look up research about geomagnetic navigation in sea turtles in my spare time.  Especially interesting when the research relates to the development of that ability.

I've walked the Pennine Way. By the end of it it feels normal walking 15 miles in a day - but I'm pretty sure it's not normal...

Not entirely sure if this is normal or not...
Over the last few months I’ve always had a song playing in the back of my head, not like the lyrics being stuck in my head, it’s more like hearing music from far away. It’s more the beat than the lyrics, it’s sort of just always there. It’s actually come really distracting because it’s hard to focus on what I’m supposed to be doing when I’m too busy trying to listen to whatever song is in my head

I think it’s probably because I’ve been listening to music almost constantly lately. Even through most of my classes I’m allowed to have at least one headphone in (it’s just fish and outdoor Ed when I don’t listen to music).

Should probably cut back on the music because I can’t have music in exams and it’s gonna be hard to focus without it haha

I can’t really tell whether things I do aren’t strange - I tend to just assume it’s normal until someone points it out.


Oh actually I just thought of something! I don’t really have time for it these days, but I used to listen to songs to memorise things. Like I know about 25 numbers of Pi and I can sing the alphabet backwards because I went looking for songs to help me memorise them lol

Also @insanipi I’m pretty good at identifying songs a second in too! Although only if it’s music I listen to (or the pop songs I hear at work haha)

I realise now, while I'm listening to Hannah Montana on Spotify at the moment-

I always always listen to Disney songs when I'm stressed about something. It never fully hits me that I've got a deadline due until I go on a Disney song marathon- especially High School Musical songs.

As I am listening to Hannah Montana, it hits me that I have three film shoots in 1.5 weeks ahhhhhh

I just kinda remembered this...

Whenever I am on an excursion or something, or in a strange place, I start planning how to escape from different things.
Like, if I am in a Bus, I start analyzing the various merits of different emergency exits in response to different types of emergencies.

Does anyone else do this?

Yep.

I also analyse things like how a crowd might respond to if there was an emergency
(Interesting fact: In an emergency situation, people will leave a room quicker if the exit is in the corner of a room rather than the middle of a wall (assuming same exit size, number of people etc))

All my friends think it's weird that I eat yoghurt on my toast. I don't think it's that weird, it's sort of just milky jam! ;D

Btw you should try it if you haven't, it tastes good.

You might like drinking ayran! Equal parts yoghurt and water, pinch of salt
