The Return of the Omnipotent Biker

Biking is fun. Unfortunately it doesn’t require as much exertion as other workout methods do. The thing you learn most from it is how to obey traffic.

“I asked him if he knew what the word ‘obey’ meant. He replied,”Sure. It’s a place online where you can buy stuff.”“

Spanish, Music, and Doing the Wrong Thing

Yesterday I got persuaded by my mom to seriously use the LearnToSpeak Spanish CD we bought. I say “Hasta luego” into the mic and it says I selected “Estoy bien”. Still, the vocabulary it selects are far better than the ones I selected haphazardly. ¿Qué quiere decir “…”? Well, I’m stopping the finding of new vocabulary in Spanish madly.

Today I lost my Kitchen Midden rubric by clipping it into the questionnaires. I wasn’t sure until I found it there. I flipped through the questionnaires and found it in ten seconds. Wooooo! WHAT ARE THE ODDS? Luck.

Cold

Hooray! Something I ate today cured my cold! Well, they assuaged it for today at least. Perhaps by dinner I’ll be coughing like a donkey with terminal asthma again.

Okay, enough with horrible similes. Luckily or not, in P.E. class we didn’t do the lethal 100m dash timing. Instead we practiced jumping. Hooray! It’s not as exerting.

Sicknesses and Sundays

Today is Sunday. Tomorrow is when I go back to school. *sigh*

Pearl Milk Tea Again

After submitting my article onto my Magnum Opuses website section I got to drink some more pearl milk tea that wasn’t sweet at all.

When I was little I used to look at everybody drinking bitter things like tea, coffee, beer, wine, and all that. I simply couldn’t imagine growing up and liking them. Everything good at that time was sweet, sugary, sweet, and unhealthy. Then I realized that I hated candy.

Ah, whatever.

Physical

Recent excercise: I’ve bicycled all over the place, almost going into Jhubei. Obviously, with parental notice. In fact they rode with me. Or, more strictly speaking I rode with them. Whatever. Also I’ve done a few pushups wrongly. And I’m typing, I guess. Ah, whatever.

Virtues, Complaints, and Trash

I have been pondering an interesting problem for a long time. Which virtue is the best, the most important, the most worthy of epitomizing the word “virtue”? Due to homework constraints I have been unable to put this up for a long time, which is frustrating.

My candidates: First, honesty. Then we have kindness. Then responsibility, and optimism, and courage, and intelligence. It doesn’t look like a fair match, really.

Human Dependencies and More Trash

Humans depend on electricity. It’s the main problem with blackouts.

Prehistoric people didn’t have this dependency. If our world is further electronized, blackouts will be very dangerous and will have to be made more robust.

Hooray! I got a new banner! Is there something rebellious lurking just beyond my grasp?

Peanut Butter Viscosity

Note to self: PB gets stickier when toasted. Slightly strange because under heat it should flow easier, but it’s probably the same principle as the way cement works.
