The Sweet Scent Of A Memory


Did you know that smell is one of the most powerful senses? A smell can bring on a flood of memories, influence people's moods and even affect their work performance.

 We've all experienced this: a familiar perfume, a family recipe, the scent of a bonfire—they all bring back barage of memories, whisking us away to re-live our past for a moment. 

 When you first smell a new scent, you link it to an event, a person, a thing or even a moment. Your brain creates a link between the smell and a memory. 

 So the next time you smell the same scent, it triggers a certain memory, mood or remind you of a person.

 For example, the scent of freshly baked Famous Amos cookies reminds me of airports because that's where i first smelled it. Scent of freshly cut grass reminds me of Saturday morning in my old house because that's when they usually mow the lawn. It's amazing isn't it?

 How does this happen?

 The olfactory nerve (sense of smell) is located very close to the amygdala, the area of the brain that is connected to the experience of emotion as well as emotional memory. In addition, the olfactory nerve is very close to the hippocampus, which is associated with memory.

 Smell is also an important element of attraction, especially when it comes to the feeling of chemistry that two people share. 

 Scent can play a huge role in how attracted we are to someone. We’ve all walked by someone, smelled a whiff of cologne or perfume and immediately taken a second glance. 

 Or what about when you’re flirting with that guy at the bar and he smells amazing? He just got more attractive.

Well i think someone who smells good is VERY attractive. 

 Few guys I dated couldn't for the love of God remembered the shape of my eyes or the mole on my face but remembered how I smelled, the scent of my car or my house. 

 "I still remember how you smell" or "That smell reminds me of you"

 So, to make an impression on someone or to stick in someone's memory, wear perfume/cologne. You'll be perceived as more attractive and they'll always remember you when they smell the perfume/cologne you used.

Porn Puaka Di Gym

Tajuk mengundang kontroversi Sis ni bukan apa rajin pergi gym, selain nak bersenam, iols juga suka mencuci mata. Bukan setakat mencuci mata dengan jantan helok (I'm still hoping sebab gym iols pegi tu SENDUU), sis juga suka melihat gegadis yang fefeeling gedik dengan bermacam fesyen di gym tu.

Sunlight Suite: Introvert's Heaven In Cameron Highland

 Sunlight Suite: Introvert's Heaven In Cameron Highland I told myself I'll not revisit Cameron Highlands since it became so crowded, busy, and overdeveloped in recent years. I might have changed my mind after I found this beautiful hidden gem. Honestly, it really is challenging to find a place that ticks all the boxes for an ideal introvert's getaway in a touristy place like Cameron Highlands. With lots of research, you can and for me, that place is Sunlight Suite . Going on a long weekend, I already mentally prepared myself for the infamous non-moving weekend traffic jam in Cameron Highlands.  "Going to Cameron on a long weekend?! You crazy ahh?!" my friend said.  But to my surprise, the traffic was pretty smooth. It also helps that I departed quite late from KL (3pm-ish) via Tapah route and reached Sunlight Suite around 7pm.  Little English Cottage In The Tropics Moonlight Bungalow Picture credit to https://www.sunlightsuite.com/moonlight-bungalow/   Sunlight...

Harmony Valley Retreat Di Janda Baik: Weekend Getaway Yang Mendamaikan

Harmony Valley Retreat Di Janda Baik: Weekend Getaway In Lush Misty Mountain This staycation was what, late last year? Somewhere in November I think, during Deepavali long weekend. Vacation yilek, staycation pun jadilah sis.  Personally, I find that staycation is much more relaxing because you don't have to go through the hassle of planning your itinerary. Most of all, you don't have to go through the stress of traveling. Urghhh, few hours to & fro airport, waiting at the airport, the stress and anxiety of going through immigration and such. Just thinking about it makes me tired. #sisaging So anyway, back to Harmony Valley Retreat. You know la, sis ni suka tempat yang aman, back to nature, nyaman sejuk-sejuk. Untuk lari daripada hiruk pikuk kota metropolitan. And Harmony Valley Retreat is just the perfect place to rejuvenate, recharge & relax. Admittedly, the thing that cemented my decision was this review from a customer "So serene & you can hea...
