Attack of the Seagull

I was attacked by a seagull today. No, it did not just follow me around, it flew into my face. I do admit I sounded pretty ridiculous when I shouted out "BIRD". From now on, I will wince whenever one comes within three feet of me. *Shiver* Be afraid, be very afraid.

Speaking of being afraid, I have just discovered Stephen King. His writing is amazing. I thought that he would just be another one of those cliched scary novel writers, but it is truly very good. I highly suggust it, even if it is just reading the style, unique to itself. The book I have just finished is called Misery.

Oh, by the way, pushing the cafe cart is going to be awesome! I am so glad that I decided to volenteer at the hospital. It is turning out to be a very rewarding experience so far.

Question of the Day: What came first, orange or oranges?
This seems like a chicken and egg question, but it actually has an answer. The noun came before the adjective. Oranges first came from latin. In English the first time orange appeared was 1620.

Story of the Day: EU to Ban Selling Eggs by the Dozen
Wait...what? How could you not? I get selling things like fruit or vegstables by weight, but eggs?? It is a tradition! I totally understand why people would be up in arms over this. This will even raise the cost of groceries because producers would have to change all the packaging. It will just confuse everyone too.

MLIA of the Day: "Today I was spinning my beaded necklace around in class instead of taking my final. I hit myself in the eye. Twice. The universe is trying to keep me on track I suppose...Or point out that with the amount of coordination I have, I definitely need good grades. MLIA"

That reminds me of the time my necklace exploded in seventh grade in science class. Hilarious.
