yup!~ Visited Body Worlds today...was really fascinated by the human body as well as its development. Happened to go there with a medical student who became our tour guide, introducing to another of my friend and myself, every inch of the bone and muscle. The trip would not be as fascinating as it was today if not for his brilliant explanations to each and every of our stupid questions.
*clap*clap*clap*clap*
Also, yes, thank you to the other friend who took time out from her busy studying schedule to come and see this Body Worlds exhibition. I am sure you had a real-life revision and agreed that it was really enriching and a worthwhile visit, identifying Asians and caucasians.... Guess, it might have brought down her stress-level as well...haha.....all the best for her test next week anyway.
Alright, more about the Body Worlds Exhibition. The format of layout was good, the whole exhibition is divided into themes like, Locomotive, Repiratory, Cardiovascular and so on.....so, we actually followed each and every system of the body. However, explanations of the exhibits are really limited and extremely scientific. So, you really need either a medical student or life sciences student with you...haha....
That aside, the surrounding were quite barren and sub-standard...it is just plainly decorated with rocks and pebbles..with nothing really much to complement the exhibits.....video presentations will be great, I guess. I really enjoyed the exhibition especially the part on the different stages of pregnancies...make you really think how wonderful life forms are, from little dots to people like you and I...wow!!
The best thing was, the exhibition was not crowded at all. We could walk at our own pace and view the exhibits at great details. The room was spacious and chairs were available for the tired legs. Most people who went there were students or parents who brought their children.....the children in fact, do not think that the exhibits were ex-life forms at all......most of them were happily looking at the exhibits with lots of attention.......hahah
I did not really feel that the exhibits were real, in fact, they seem too plasticky to be real. Nevertheless, I would say that the exhibition is really worth the money, and we spent a grand total of three hours there! hahaha.......
Shall say nomore, the rest in for you to find out yourself!
I did not accomplish the rest that I wanted to do today....but, I am glad that today was really fantastic!
