Isn't it amazing that we can so entirely zone out in class, or a boring conversation....or anywhere really. We unintentionally block out all surrounding noises and actions. You become lost in your mind, engulfed in your own thoughts and ideas. As you wander about in your own little world, everything around you continues to go on. And everything we have and do is a result of evolution. At one time we needed them, even if they aren't useful now. Like wisdom teeth- we needed them when our heads were bigger, but now that we've evolved they're just a nuisance. So I wonder- when did we need to ignore everything and just zone out? maybe it's useful now too while we block out other things to focus on our work- but at the same time you may have missed the instructions. This is what I thought about while I zoned out in biology.
