How old is your brain?

This is interesting!!!

See if your brain is as old as your body
~ or ~
(perish the thought) ~ OLDER !!

Read the following instructions since the game is in Japanese:
Procedure of Flash Fabrica Game:

1. Touch 'start'
2. Wait for 3, 2, 1.
3. Memorize the number's position on the screen, then click the circle from the SMALLEST number to the BIGGEST number.
4. At the end of game, the computer will tell you the age of your brain.

Good luck !!

LOL I'm 20! Woohoo! But then I was always good at that kind of thing. At least I think "20" is good...

You know what? We need a "fun and games" forum for silly stuff like this.

My brain is 23. What is that supposed to mean? I got most of them right, but two of them I messed up after about 3 or 4 of them. That was fun!

Do you want to be younger or older? I was older, not by much, thank goodness!

This was fun. Thanks, E!

I was 31. I'll take that.

I'm 20 again! Yeah, right. That was fun, though.

I was 30 the first time I took it, but just as the first one popped up my two year old came in and tapped me on the leg, I missed it completely. Then my four year old decided she needed to climb on my lap and knocked the mouse so I clicked on the wrong one. From there the struggle went on. When I took it again later I was 23 and then again I was 20. So does that mean you can strengthen your brain and make it younger by playing memory games?

Just wondering....is a "younger" brain really a good thing? Do I really want to be 20 again???

No I do not want to be twenty again. But, if I could know what I know now and be twenty again, I know I would enjoy it a whole lot more.

I think what it means to have a 20 year old mind is that it is quick and learns easily. And for that purpose yes, I would love to have a younger brain. I wish I could have an even younger brain so that I could learn languages better. Sometimes it is so hard to live in a house where my children know exactly what daddy is saying and I have no idea. They other day I was struggling to understand what was going on and DH said something and all the kids laughed. I knew he had asked a question, but that was it. Because he asked it in Portuguese I thought he was still talking to the kids. However, he had asked me when I was going to learn Porutguese. You would think by now I would, but the kids pick it up soooooo much faster than me. I can only understand the simple words and phrases he uses for my two year old.

Yes, I wish I would have known at age 20 what I know now. My life would be completely different. I would have made some very different decisions. I also wish I would have put more into learning a foreign language. I have a minor in French, but I only learned it in the classroom...I never actually was immersed in it. I remember so little French. I wish I was fluent in Spanish.

I guess that's the difference between knowledge & wisdom. A 20-yr. old college student might KNOW a lot, but wisdom only comes with life experience & age / perspective (I say at the ripe old age of 36). The scripture of "when they are learned they think they are wise" comes to mind.....

Good luck with the Portuguese, Dia. It is such an interesting language--like a cross between Italian, Spanish, & French.
