Another 'I Just Noticed How..' moment. *exclamationmark*

I just noticed how much age gaps change in the way the are percieved as time goes on.

Around my age, a Sec one (age 13) would be a lot different than a Sec three (age 15).

But as they grow up and become adults, you'll have them be, say, 45 and 43 (the age gap still is 2 years).
And suddenly, they don't seem that far apart.


Still, I guess, that's not much of a surprise, with puberty and different levels of education seperating us at around this age. By your forties you'd have have a developed yet aged body, and had your education finished. You'd know about the same thing as your younger/older peers, only seperated by experience.
But then again, that could just be two years of being a baby earlier. Not much experience there; our memories usually don't go that far.

Hm..

and that brings me to another question: When, really, do we start being conscious/aware of our surroundings? And when do we know enough about them to start actually gaining 'experience'?

Just a pondering.
And a pondering sprouted from a pondering.
And now, I study for the SS that is to come tomorrow.

There's just something about Mr. Ooi that makes the class accept his telling us of a test on the second day we have SS lessons, instead of going "HAAaaaaaA.... WAH LAU EH"

Mm.
Neat.
