Hey everyone, this is Sheena from AP1. Like many high schoolers, I'm a typical fan girl and my ultimate dream to see my idols offline. And a few months ago, I was trying to get this lottery of my favorite idols concert.I even started my own clicking speed training camp, but I failed.

I made Chad GPT play the role of my idol and then started nagging about how I should stop liking them, spending money and time since even ...

Hello everyone. I'm Nico. It's like a few months ago.I came across a short video online and it has stopped in my track. There was a little girl sitting on the ground holding her white round robot and it light had gone dark. It doesn't talk to me anymore, she whispered, tears running down her cheeks.

I know.To her, it wasn't just a machin ...

TEDx Talks· 2026-01-27 18:00
What can a rat teach us about being human? Neuroscientist Kelly Lambert shares her research on joy and anticipation through the lens of small but remarkably intelligent mammals: rats. From teaching them to drive tiny cars—yes, drive—to studying their joy when anticipating positive experiences, she invites us to explore how happiness can be sparked through what she calls “behaviourceuticals.” Through her research, we find that enjoying the journey rather than only the destination may just be built into our D ...

Money allows you a lot wider range of choices in life but it doesn't necessarily make you happy. So the parable is there are these uh two boys who grew up together. They're childhood friends.As frequently happens, they go their different directions in life as they become adults. And one becomes a very successful, powerful minister to the king. And the other becomes a humble monk in tattered robes with a begging bowl and what have you.And years later, they run into each other on the road. And they're getting ...
