Good evening my friends,
As I was reading through chapter 11, I found something funny that reminded me of our school. I find that I, and many other girls, tend to comment on the smells in school. Whenever I walk into a classroom it seems to smell different every time! Whether it is the smell of chulent cooking for mishmar in the halls, or the smell of coffee or dirty socks or anything, I notice the smell! Well, the section that discusses the gender differences mentions that girls are more sensitive to touch, taste and odor, along with many other things. I thought of our school right away and realized that this makes perfect sense! As the chapters go on I continue to find myself learning things that explain why I behave in certain ways.

hahahha that blog just cracked me up! i remember reading that in the book as well and it actually reminded me about something else. You know how people always say that boys are smelly and gross and dont even notice it and are completely fine with it, why is that? As i read the chapter i came to the conclusion that perhaps they are stinky because their sense of smell isnt as intense as ours and they therefore dont notice it as severely as we do.
