If I were to lose my memory i’m sure I would go into a panic. If someone was to forget who they were, how they got to where they are right now, and couldnt remember anything I dont think anyone wouldn’t. I hope if something like this happens I would tell myself to remain calm and search my pockets. Inside I would hopefully find my wallet which contains my ID and my phone with all my friends and family members numbers. Assuming I havent forgotten my native language (as Mom and Dad are not written in english) I would call them first and ask them for help.
I’m sure it would be weird talking to people I dont even remember I would probably be really anxious to see them and be hopeing that everything was gonna be okay. Im sure they would try to tell me everything about me in a rush and it would just fly right by me. I wouldnt be able to concentrate on anything when I dont know anyone or anything. I would ask them simple things like what I do, and where do I go. I would slowly try to remember their names and my brothers name. After that I would probably check my text messages for who I text most, as they are probably my closest friends. Ask them about myself and what we do. Fun memories we had together.
If I had a choice to recover only certain memories I would change nothing. Having a clean slate is nice and all but if you are happy with who you are today, then that is who you are. Even if they are painful or embarressing memories of our past knowing them shaped us to be who we are. Something someone told me that I would never forget was (Maybe if I had amnesia) “Do you like the person you are? Then be happy for all the things that happened to you”

This is actually my first semester of my sophomore year here at Baruch. I grew up on the Upper East Side of Manhattan and have been there all my life. I really enjoy music and film. I cant think of a genre of music that I dont listen to. I like to watch alot of movies especially some classic ones (Two off the top of my head I’ve seen in the last week are Citizen Kane and The Seventh Seal). I also enjoy playing electric guitar. So far my favorite class has been psych of course, no joke. Unfortunately I dont think Baruch has any good clubs at all unless perhaps there is some really cool one I never heard of but I highly doubt it. As for sharing something that reflects me I like to think that I am a lighthearted guy who enjoys comedy alot so here is something that always gets me to smile . I hope this sheds some light on who I am.

"1. After reading the reflection writer’s description, what do you think was
happening to them during the meditation on a physiological level?
They were forgetting their worries and losing their anxiousness
2. Based on your readings throughout the semester, what areas of their central and peripheral nervous systems may have been effected during the meditation?
parasympathetic and sympathetic nervous systems were definitely being affected during the meditiation.
3. What questions do you have for the writer about their experience?
How long after your initial meditation did you continue meditating. Did the affects gradually increase or decrease.
4. Based on the description provided, would you be open to trying the same meditation exercise?
Sure why not, I dont see why I wouldnt want to NOT be stressed out"
posted on Dec 4, 2011, on the post my meditation!!!"I believe that this experiment would definitely be a complete success as breakfast is literally the most important meal of the day.
My suggestion would be to add another female in each group. Its not exactly equal playing field when its 3 males to two females is it?
Some drawbacks are that while unhealthy snacks in your hypothesis are a negative they could also be a positive as food is still food. You also said, no breakfast for the whole day, are you implying that they wouldnt eat for the whole day or just breakfast.
Next step would be different types of foods. Protein heavy meals, Fiber Heavy, etc etc. You could also have two sleep deprived groups, one with breakfast and one without."
