Best study aid ever !

Was too excited with American Idol yesterday that I forgot to mention about effective the mindwave study aid was. When I started studying on Wednesday night, I couldn't concentrate so I decided to try out the study aid function on mindwave. Don't know if it's a psychological thing or something but once I played the tone, after a minute or 2, I got into the studying mood. The background sounds made me feel as if I was studying next to a waterfall, with no distractions, very peaceful indeed. Like those scholars in the olden days he he.

Not sure if the program really makes your memory better, but it definitely will make you concentrate better .. With my iPhones and a good pair of earphones I think I can study in any environment. As for yesterday's exam, I think I did quite well .. I could answer almost everything. Maybe mindwave helped my memory a little ... Was able to recall most of the things I studied.

I can't prove that mindwave made me remember things better, but it definitely helped me concentrate better. Highly recommended for people who can't get themselves to focus when studying.

Okay reaching school soon got to go!

Assignments and Exams! Stress ah!


Oh man, these few days have been very tiring for the usually very free me. Have been doing my case study (due tom) and making notes for my exam (tom too!). Will be starting my super memorizing ritual soon maybe with the help of Mindwave, after that just vomit out everything I have studied during the paper tom. This is what most of us in Singapore do right he he.

Really hate studying for exams ... as you get older I think you brain memory capacity gets smaller and smaller and it gets really hard to learn new things. At this time and age where its so easy to get information, I wonder why we still have closed book exams. Whenever in doubt we just have to use our best friend Google to search for information we need. If you have a mobile phone which can access the internet, you can have limitless information wherever you go! They should scrap closed book examinations and have open book ones instead! Or better still, grade us only on assignments and projects! (People might cheat though so that might not be a good idea heh, the rich kids will just ace everything!)

Anyway if they eventually implement this system, I don't think I will get to enjoy it. After this paper I think I have around 4 - 5 more exams in my life to go!! After that its working life for me!

Okay time to study!!! Looking forward to American Idol tom!!

Update: Can't concentrate ... time to use the mindwave program

Activating Study Aid mode ...

MindWave cured my headaches!

Yesterday I was stuck in my fathers car for more than an hour with no air condition turned on. Did not get out of the car as I'm actually allergic to the sun :( ... if you are in Singapore with no air com on in a car which is not moving, its hell! Because of this and maybe the rather irritating process of looking for floor plans an hour before I got quite a bad headache which even a few sticks of cigs could not cure actually maybe it made it worse lol.

After a while I suddenly thought of the mindwave app I blogged about a few days ago and tried my luck using the headache treatment function and guess what, it actually worked! Coincedently my mother also had a headache that night and immediately I passed her my iPhone with the mindWave app turned on and after around 10 mins she was sleeping soundly with the earphones still in her hears lol. This app really rocks!

I haven't tried the weightloss function yet by the way, been busy these few days ......... watching tv shows!!! So many of my favorite shows are back! Heroes, Chuck, American Idol, 30 Rock, My name is Earl .... they are all back again. Even Survivor is back! Now I just have to wait for the final season of Prison Break to show and my list of must watch tv shows every week is complete he he. Oh ya even Singapore Idol is coming back too, plus Street Fighter 4 coming out soon, Draconica (3d maple story?), Asian dramas etc etc ....... I'm so busyyyyyyy =P


Don't worry I promise I will use the weightloss function soon :)

P.S. I ate dinner again today lol ... I think I can't make Friday a no dinner day, its too tempting to eat when you go out and others are eating. So I guess only Monday to Thursday will be my fruits only dinner days unless I'm at home on Friday.

My Secret Weight Loss Tool

Woo hooo weighed myself yesterday and guess what I loss 500g!! If I didn't eat last Friday maybe I could have loss even more weight! If I can lose 500g every week I will be a very happy man. Not sure if my old weighing machine is accurate though, I think I'm going to buy a digital one to view the readings more precisely.

Last week I mentioned I'm going to use a secret weapon to loss weight, so today let me introduce to you My Secret Weight Loss Tool. Actually I haven't use it yet, I will do so starting tom so hopefully it will boost the weight loss process. The Secret Weight Loss Tool is the mindWave binaurall tones app for iPhone!!

I was surfing the apple app store (which rocks by the way) when I saw this at the top 25 paid app sections and went on to read what it is about. There are many uses for this app but the one most interesting to me was the weight loss capability! Since it was quite cheap (only $1.99) and the reviews of this app were all very positive I quickly used my finger to touch the buy now button, key in my password and yay I bought it and it was automatically installed within a min! Yup its sooo easy to get an app on your iPhone! Sorry new iPhone fanboy here he he.

More details taken from iTunes app store ....

App Name: mind Wave

Price: $1.99

Application Description:

MindWAve was #1 selling app on itunes Canada and Italy for 4 weeks in a row.

Mid Wave is a unique brain wave application that puts you to a certain state of mind. These Binaural tones help to improve the learning process, reliece headaches, help you fall asleep, relax and even get rid of bad habits like smoking, binaural tones are very useful for ADHD (duno wtas that).

I have included 16 binaural beats to entertain your brain waves:
- Study Aid
- Sleep Induction
- Relaxation
- Deep Meditation
- Mental Refreshed
- Coffee
- Creativity Boost
- Focasing Attention
- Weight Loss
- Headache Treatment
- Deep Theta - Powerful Relaxer
- PMS Relieve
- APLPHA Relax
- Relax Air Tunes
- ADD/ADHD Hyperactivity
- Accelerated Growth/Healing

Some Screen shots from my iPhone:

Study Aid - This will be very useful for my mid semester examination which is coming soon. If it really works, I will definitely announce it on my blog :). If its good I'm sure you will see lots of parents buying iPhones for their kids or researching on binaural tones.


Coffee - Don't drink too much coffee, its bad for your health. Listen to this virtual caffeine instead to keep you awake for those long nights. Can't use this in those long meetings at work though.


Headache Treatment - If you don't have panadols with you or want to save money, listen to this instead.


Fast Growth/Healing - If only I had this earlier than maybe I could have been taller. Can still use the healing function though.


PMS Relieve - Guys who have girlfriends with moods swings often, get this! Its very important for one of those days. Not sure if you can convince her to listen to it. Don't think I have the chance to use this function in the near future so sorry can't test it out to see if it works.


Weighloss/Smoking - This is the one for weight loss!! Not sure why they put it together with smoking. I thought when you stop smoking you get fatter. As stated here . Maybe if you listen to this and continue smoking you can thinner faster? =P


These are some examples of the functions, I'm sure it will convince people to try it out, its only $1.99 anyway. In fact its actually the top selling app in the app store at the moment in Singapore! I think the guy who made this must be rich by now.

Some may be skeptical, but if certain tunes make you happy, sleepy, move your body, shake your bottom and cry then maybe it might work after all. I will test the weight loss one tomorrow onwards and the study aid the week after next for my mid semester exam. Hope it works! =)

If you are interested here is the link on iTunes - mindWave

I think one function missing most guy (me included) would love for future updates is the "getting people in the mood for some loving function" ... (you secretly change to this function after showing the girl another function) ............. just kidding!
