Of Polar Bears

C. Social structure.
1. Polar bears are basically solitary. Usually, only two social units exist: (1) adult females with cubs and (2) breeding pairs.
Polar bears are basically solitary. However, in some southern regions, like Hudson Bay, bears may aggregate on land during the ice-free summer and autumn months.
2. Polar bear aggregations.
a. Polar bears will aggregate to feed on large whale carcasses and at dump sites.
b. In some southern regions, like Hudson Bay, bears aggregate on land during the ice-free summer and autumn months.
3. On occasion, adult and sub adult (ages 30 months to five or six years) polar bear males will feed and travel together for short periods of time.

Well,i saw a documentary on Polar Bears on National Geographic Channel yesterday afternoon.Yes,i dont just watch movies on HBO and music videos on MTV.I do care about mother nature you know.Actually,both Discovery and National Geographic are pretty interesting.At least,they teach you things at the comfort of your home.And to me,the way they inform you about the world is way more interesting and efficient than textbooks and notes.Why not just burn all of those and show us those channels all day long for a whole year.I bet we'll know more things than words and more words.

The above is an abstract from an article i found online.If i were to compare myself to an animal,it could be a Polar Bear.Of course,i am in no way close to a 800 pound male Polar Bear.I am not even as thick as its hind legs.But in terms of my social structure,i think more or less we are the same sort of animal.

Let's face it,JC life has toned down by quite a fair bit.Pace has quickened,and the leisure time shortened.But then energy that you might have possessed is lost.Its routine all day long,and it has affected me a lot one way or another.Back in Secondary School i was the guy around school where people would say "Hi." to me,followed by a good chat about exam results,or bitching about certain teachers(Common topic:Han Lee Kwang).Right now,due to the monochrome life of JC,ive toned down a lot.I dont consider myself a loner.After all,i dont have a whole table to myself during lessons,or the lack of quality conversations with fellow classmates.I tend to isolate myself a little bit.Just like today after the Maths lecture.I simply sat at the back of the LT alone and slept with the discman on.Well,the lights were dim and i was not interested in doing anything else but "Quality Rejuvenation".To a stranger,i might just be another loner sitting in the corner outcasted by the rest of the world.Hey,you dont know me so just leave things at it is and shut your gap(That was not directed at anybody in particular).

Polar Bears are solitary animals,and according to the documentary i watched yesterday they wander around the plains of Greenland and Alaska alone most of the time.However,they do enjoy company at times.The documentary showed a friendly relationship between a polar bear and a dog.Well,the dog was practically crushed under the bear's tremendous weight,but both of them seemed to be enjoying themselves(Perhaps a little more for the latter).I do appreciate my time alone in the wild.Perhaps a little fun with the fish out of the water,or perhaps baby seals.Ok,that was a little graphic,but you know what i mean.Being alone isnt such a bad thing.But of course,i do realise that if i keep myself away from a certain social circle i might be out of it forever.My mom used to scare me with little "Lies to tell a Five Year Old" stuff."If you dont talk for a day you will forget how to talk.Then you will go dumb(Unable to speak) afterwards!"I guess,the same logic applies(Though not necessarily true).I love people,and i like being around people.But sometimes,i just like to be alone.Like a polar bear.



Adorable,arent they?

When im alone i might just ski down the snowy slopes of Alaska.Slide around on the frozen lakes on my belly.Hibernate in my cave all day long,and perhaps find a fellow Polar bear to pick a fight.But then again,im in a JC life.So i might just...

Go fish.

Pun intended.
