Using brains and eating chocolate

I'll like to open up a question the the web and hopefully someone can provide me with an answer.

I had been using alot of my brain power lately(not that I haven't been using it in the past) and I realised that the more brains you use, as in the more analytical thinking you did in the day, the more you want to eat chocolates or something sweet. I'm not sure if anyone else have the same revelation as me or if there are any research going on about this topic but do let me know your ideas and thoughts on this, and any articles or links will be helpful. have a nice day, and eat more chocolates..

It isn't like hungry for sweet stuffs? I realised that sour is used to wake me up(of course) but during times when I overwork my brain, I need sweet stuffs. hmm..maybe it is really just me

I'm practically brainless and I still eat lot of chocolates.

Personally, I think chocolates are very liberal foods, they do not discriminate. Especially the fair trade types.

Who says they do not discriminate? Try getting your ah ma to eat truffles.. bet she will say 'si mi sai'

Still chocolates today. This time white chocolates. My grandmother is fine with chocolates..just as long as they don't have a milky taste to it.

Lou:I thought boots are the in-thing nowadays. I haven't met a girl in Japan who doesn't own boots. Australia too.

yea but you know me and fashion. quite non existant. and now i have to find something to wear to company party. dammit. winter leh. how to dress up

One option will be troublesome. Change when you reach there.

The other will be to get a nice overcoat.

Fashion is not about getting something new, branded and pretty. It's more about something that looks good on you and you feel comfortable wearing it, which, I think you already got it.

umm.. let's see... found a study on choc deprived people - they solved a brain puzzle fastest when they know that they'll get to eat the choc at the end... (compared to non-deprived/ vanilla deprived)

There is also some correlation between choc and neurotransmission so all in all, i think you can safely indulge in chocs on the premise that it'll improve your efficacy and mood..! =)
