-*- cool!
some facts to consider:.there are only two countries in the world that have hit the billion-mark in population (China and India)
.there is very very little possibility that a third country will ever hit that mark (the third largest country, in terms of population, being USA)
.the one-billionth resident of india was born in May 11, 2001
.if one were to count to one billion, one unit per sec, it will take 31 years, whereas to count to 284.3 million (the population of the third largest country USA), it will take 9 yrs only
*note: these facts are accordin to the census in 2001.
isnt that cool? imagine u were the billionth resident to be born in the country! it rox! and technically speaking, there were only 2 such persons in the world! and it isnt a very likely possibility to have a 3rd one, not including if the population drops then increases... wow! i think i wanna be that person! hahahah
anyway these facts were from the sociology text that i've been chewing for the past few days.. *_* haiz... im studying my ass off! trying very hard to get a lot of things into my limited brains.. blegh.. hahah but i will strive harder!!! gumbatte ne!
and to all who are pia-ing ur exams too, Gud Luck!!!!! and jia you jia you jia you.. remember that there's always someone else who's suffering with ya... hehe... i noe misery loves company.. hai..
oh havent done quotes in a while.. so here goes.....
