The Origin of Devil Forks

Did you know that in the Medieval Ages eating with forks was considered scandalous? Let me tell you why. Long time ago, a Greece princess introduced fork at her wedding. Shortly after her wedding the princess died. The pope thought that it was a punishment that she died so soon, because she introduced forks. After that, for a long time people considered using fork a devilish act.
In the 11th century, Italy nobles used forks regularly. France started using forks in 14th century. A guy named, Thomas Coryat, tried to start the tradition of using forks, but many people mocked him. They started calling him "Furcifer". That is when I realized that, maybe that is where Devil Forks come from. Weird, isn't it?
Some countries still haven't changed. For example, in Thailand, it is still considered scandalous to bring a food into your mouth using a fork. You can only use a fork to bring the food on the spoon and then you can eat the food. I never thought eating food could be so overwhelming!!

Similies

The moon is brighter than the biggest diamond there is to be found in center of the earth or in the deep blue oceans.

A flower is as beautiful as the Nile River when it cascades down the magnificent slopes.

The beach stretched out like the moonless black sky.

Her back, curved like the domes of those countless years old Greece churches.

The skateboarder, flying down the hill, like a hawk swooping down from the sky, about to pick up a prairie dog from the desert.

As crazy as the drunk hobo who chased me for 20 blocks.

The child danced through the fields like an Egyptian dancer trying to impress and emperor.

The day passed as slowly as two couples who are sauntering on a beautiful moonlit sidewalk.

The teacher's voice was as quiet as a hunter trying to spring a trap on a fierce lion.

He spun around as fast as if one second was an hour for him.

When did "smackdown" become the new playdate?

I have a very interesting story to tell you. I heard it on the radio on 99.5 at 5 in the morning. I couldn't sleep so I wanted to listen to music on 99.5, but there was none. There was this radio show which was actually interesting. Here is the story:

In Victorville, California a mom took her daughter to Mojave Desert park to fight another 12-year-old girl. Anyways, when her 12-years-old daughter was losing, the mom jumped into the fight. She pulled the other girls hair and slapped her on her face. When this was happening a crowd was gathering and the mom didn't even try to stop the fight.

What was the 31-years-old mom thinking? I don't know, but what I do know is that she is a bad mom. We all know that violence was not the answer and especially as a mother she should have found a peaceful way to settle her daughter's disagreement instead of boosting her up to fight. I think the mother was being stupid and irrresponsible. This was the mother's fault, because nothing good came of this fight. All that happened was that her daughter just got hurt physically and probably her feelings too. The mom is basically giving her daughter an approval to hurt herself and another child when she took her to that park.

What happened to the mother? Well, when the sheriff arrived to break up the fight, he witnessed the mother pulling the other girl's hair and slapping her. The mother was arrested, because of child abuse and the case is being investigated right now.

Human Body is Weird!!!!

Have any of you guys ever wonder how your body was made. In my case the answer is no. I found the things I am about to tell you, because I had nothing to write about and I was searching the Internet for something interesting. I found this both interesting and informative. I hope you enjoy it.

Many parents and teachers nag you about getting a high I.Q., right? Well you should show them this fact. There is no one who likes facts more than parents and teachers, especially you science or biology teacher, since what I am about to say relates with those subjects. Did you know that scientists say the higher your I.Q. the more you day dream. I don't know what dreaming has got to do with you intelligence, but I am just telling you the facts. Weird, isn't it? that is what i thought when I found that out.

Did you know that your thumb is as long as your nose? When I found out this I tried it and it was true. I even asked my friend to try it. My friend and I thought it was funny. I told my teacher and she laughed. It is kind of odd, don't you think? I thought so too. Who would have thought that your thumb and your nose are the same length.

I just learned that human brain can hold 5 times as much as an Encyclopedia Britannica. I was really surprised when I found that out, because many people forget several things and our brain is suppose to hold more than an Encyclopedia Britannica can, so from now on if I want to memorize things all I have to do is think about this fact. As unbelievable as it might seem, it is very true. Many scientists have done a research on this and it has been proven again and again. We have a memory that is better than an Encyclopedia Britannica and we don't use it. If we actually use our brain's capacity to memorize stuff, then we wouldn't need an Encyclopedia Britannica as often as we need it now.

These are just some facts, I found the most interesting. If you want to find out more interesting things about the human body then got to, http://www.emmitsburg.net/humor/archives/interesting_facts/interesting_facts_12.htm#The%20human%20body%20is%20a%20machine%20that%20is%20full%20of%20wonder. If you know some facts, then make sure you comment on my blog.

Mistical Characters

Hey guys? OK, so have you guys ever wondered if you were a mystical creature, what you would be? Then you are in the right place! Read the rest of this and you will be able to know what you will be.

If you are mysterious and adventurous, then you would be a VAMPIRE. It would be cool to be a vampire. By vampire, I mean a Twilight kind of vampire. You are beautiful and very selfless. You know when you are out numbered and you know how to persevere. You are very lovable and loving. You don't like to be in the middle of attention, but you do like it when people give you some attention once in a while. Something I would like to advice you is don't be overconfident, just because you are close to perfect and beautiful or don't completely forget about yourself. What I am trying to tell you is try to balance things out.

If you are beautiful and care a lot about your outfit, makeup, and all those stuff then you are a MERMAID. You are rich and your beauty is radiant. Every body envies you beauty, in a good way. You have a lot of friends and a lot of people have a crush on you. But, make sure that you have real friends. Also, don't be very obsessed with you looks. I am not saying looks are not important, I am just saying that there are thing that are more important than looks. Ones in a while try to give some of your money to the homeless or to charities, not only are you making other people's life easier, you will also feel good inside. That is a win, win situation.

If you are caring, giving, and care a lot about other people, then you are a FAIRY. You like to do community work and help the environment by recycling. You love animals and plants. You have a very giving heart and you are also really forgiving. You think little kids are adorable (which they are) , and you like to spend time with them. You have an amazing personality, just make sure that you think about yourself ones in a while, because in between of doing all those good deeds, you might be hurting yourself. Also, being nice to others doesn't mean agreeing with them all the time, so stand up for yourself, when you need to and show other people that you are as tough as anyone.

If you have a lot of friends, like to watch things happen in the sidelines, and don't like when all the attention on you, then you are a WARE WOLF. You might think it is a bad thing to be a werewolf, but it isn't. If people met you, they will have a completely different opinion about werewolves. You are the reasonable one and your friends always come to you when they have a problem. You don't like to gossip or start rumors. Being the guidance counselor of you group is awesome, but sometimes you have to let other people be your guidance counselor. It doesn't have to be your friend. It can be anybody. Bottling up you feelings can lead you into doing something rash or something you don't want to do.

If you are quiet, focused, and always up for a challenge then you are a DRAGON. You know where you are going. You are very ambitious and you know what you are going to in the future. You are always very busy and are mature for you age. You are all business and no nonsense. You will probably be a CEO of some large company or work in the congress, when you grow up. You really like to spend you time with adults. There is nothing wrong with being ambitious, but it is good for you to go out there and have fun sometimes. Try to make more friends, that are your age. That way you will have a balanced life, because you can only be a teen once and there is a lot time to be an adult.

Cool and Funny Words

One of my favorite words in "tokie dockie". It means "sometimes" in Japanese. I like it, because it sounds like "okie dockie". I don't actually say okie dockie, but I think I am going to start saying "tokie dockie" from know on.
My other favorite word is womba, which means very big. It is not an actual word, but I just like saying it. The weird thing is not many people use that word. I don't know why, I mean it is a great word. People use words like "ginormus", "gimangus", and other words. I think they should include "womba" into their vocabulary, because it is funny. Every time things are tense or awkward around me i say that word and every body starts laughing.
I also like the word ha ha. It means mother in Japanese. I don't mean to be prejudice, I just love some Japanese words. They are really funny and cool. I actually admire their creativity.
Another word I like is "confuzelled". Obviously, it is not a real word, but I really like to say it sometimes. I means confused or frustrated. Even though i don't say it as much as the other words I still like the meaning and the little twist from the real world. It is a great word.
You can use my words, if you want to. I think you should use them, because they are a great secret weapon. You can use them, if you don't want people to understand what you are saying or if you don't want adults to understand what you mean. You might as well be speaking a different language, when you are using these words (which you kind of are), especially if you are speaking to adults.
Right now, I am trying to create a list of funny or clever words, so if you have some words that you think are funny then feel free to add to let me know by commenting. Meanwhile, I keep trying to find some funny words and I will post it, so don't forget to check my blog. I will try to keep it updated. Also, I will add at least three or four words each month.
