Week One

WELCOME! My name is Joseph Tsai, and you are currently on my blog page! To start off this week's post, I wanted to introduce you to my dog. His name is Coffee, and he's been my furry friend for around 5 years now since I moved to Sugar Land. Here's a picture of him:  He is extremely confused and ungroomed, but regardless he still posed for the camera. The role of taking care of a pet may not look like much to an unexperienced person, but taking care of this dog was a real challenge of my patience and caregiving skills. I am extremely proud to own a dog and teach him to do multiple tricks such as to roll, jump, speak, sit, and much more. Additionally, though he looks like he wouldn't like to be pet, he actually really likes it to the point that he begs for attention. To learn more about how to treat your pet, click here .

Origin story: A few years ago, John was just an ordinary student at school. He was extremely competitive in terms of grades and always strives to get the best grades that he can, but one day, he failed an extremely major test that denied him entrance to an extremely prestigious college. He was so sad that he tried to end his life on the same day, but while he was standing on top of the building anticipating to jump down, he was met up by Cosmo, the academic god. He co...

Week 4

Welcome back dedicated blog followers!  This week 4, so we will need to dive deeper into cool information about our senses. I picked this article that talks about how taste if affected by the smell and the presentation of the food. It talks about how even though taste and sight isn't technically part of taste, it does influence perception. Cells that recognize these flavors reside in taste buds located on the tongue and the roof of the mouth when food if placed in the mouth, but concurrently, we also activate our sensory cells to perceive qualities such as temperatures, spiciness, or creaminess. Additionally, when we smell food, the information gathered by these cells is relayed to the mouth via olfaction referral which effects our perception of what the food will taste like. To try this, if you hold your nose and place a strawberry jelly bean in your mouth and chew, but you would only be able to detect sweetness and a little sourness. However, if you open your nose, the odor mole...
