Aspartame full.

I just finished exploring the world of Atkins diet and I don't ever want or need to do it. Thank the greater forces.

Ahh next week is going to be one of those not-good weeks, especially at the end. Lots of Math and Latin. I hope Chemistry and Bio don't do anything to interfere.

Places to avoid during Easter.

In the Czech Republic, a tradition of whipping is carried out on Easter Monday. In the morning, males whip females with a special handmade whip called pomlázka. The pomlázka consists of eight, twelve or even twenty-four withies (willow rods) and is usually from half a meter to two meters long and decorated with coloured ribbons at the end. It must be mentioned that while whipping can be painful, the purpose is not to cause suffering. Rather, the purpose is for males to exhibit their attraction to females; unvisited females can even feel offended. The whipped female gives a coloured egg to the male as a sign of her thanks and forgiveness. A legend says that females should be whipped in order to keep their health and fertility during whole next year. The females can get revenge in the afternoon when they can pour a bucket of cold water on any male. The habit slightly varies across the Czech Republic. Some feminists allege it is a disgusting medieval tradition. Link

If you thought having Easter Sunday on March 27 was a little early this year, in the year 2008 Easter Sunday will fall on March 23, and won't even be that early again for the next 12 years or more. However technically in terms of the layout that month, it would be similar to this month (4 days in between March Break and Easter weekend). However St. Patrick's Day isn't within March Break anymore. It's on the first Monday back.

"The taste has that wonderful fruity "wang" that I love so much." Link

Being in denial made me jump into the Nile.

On today's news: "Jason's blog gets plastic sugery...without months of rehab!" Oh the fibre, potassium, vitamin C, and 8 essential amino acids goodness.

I downloaded the "Pretty Khaki" Gap commmercial and watched it several times. It amused me greatly until the 5th viewing, and by that time I didn't want to see anything pink for the next 5 minutes.

EDIT: Juli's blog also got a new makeover. Roses have always been admired flowers, and as early as in Mesopotamia rose water was being used as incense. Cleopatra had her palace floors layered with rose petals each day and some of her pillows and mattresses were stuffed with rose petals.

"And by dancing I mean making love."

Once upon a time there was a movie named King Arthur, and I watched it.

That's because I went to latin Movie Night, the first movie night I'd gone to with any major issues.

The first was that right before the movie began, we found out the person whom was thought to have the movie...didn't have it. Therefore it had to be rented and after half an hour of "Something Funny Happened On The Way to the Forum" or something like that...King Arthur began.

But after the movie, it appeared the pizza delivery man hadn't arrvied yet, even though the pizza was ordered almost 2 hours ago. So after another while he came, and we managed to get $19 in credit for next purchase.

But even after that it was still fun. It appeared there were less people than usual at tonight's movie.

Proving My (Trigonomic) Identity

I really want an ocarina, and this site sells good quality ones. Unfortunately they're all extremely expensive. If I were to magically obtain one of their ocarinas, it would be the fairy ocarina with extended range, and a songbook. Very pretty.

Age of Empires 3 isn't going to be out for a while, the earliest is probably October this year. Darn. The new screenshots coming in are so nice.

Decrastinate.

It's the last day of March Break, darn.

It was a nice time of not caring about anything school. Now...it's time to go back for a four day interruption, where tests occur, then continue with our fun Easter break.

Eat vegetables with every meal, or else your lips will start to peel. [Episode 3]
