Random Fact Thread

[Dante]

-I'm sorry to hear about your project, Antenora.
-[Insert long ramble about when I lost something that I'd been working on for, er, months I think - it's probably repeated a few times in the older pages of this thread]
-If I needed to do some sort of family tree project, I'd ask my grandfather.
-He's been tracing our family tree back as a hobby.
-I think he's been doing it since before it became fashionable to do so.
-I don't think there are actually too many photographs of any of my non-close relatives.
-I've never seen any pictures of my father's parents, but they died when he was young.
-The Truth is really good.
-I'm quite enjoying it.
-I feel pretty tired.
-My brother's doing a small jigsaw.
-Or rather, he's sitting there with pieces in his hands, but he seems to be staring off into space.
-Oh, wait, he's doing something now.
-Now, has anything happened to me in the last few hours?
-...No, I don't think so.
-Although at school, I said I'd like to start up a newspaper just so I could make up ridiculous stories, or exaggerate existing ones.
-My suggestion to some other people that we simply burn all copies of any of our rivals before they're distributed didn't seem to go down too well, though.
-Even for a joke.
-I suspect I misheard something, but they took me seriously.
-Most odd.
-Heh, now that I think about it, the whole idea is very aSoUE.

-It is only supposed to be a 3 paragraph composition, so it isn't going to be very big
-I still have a bit of a cold/cough, just a runny nose and a cough though
-Last night there were only 5 people at applebees, which isn't a lot of people for my youth group

-I found a tie lying around school and was trying to figure out how to tie it (I used to know, but have forgotten)
-My pastor walked by and I asked him to tie it for me and it was called a double windser (sp?) and he said a bunch of stuff like "then around, and under, and through...."
-Needless to say, I didn't follow him but gladly took the tied tie and proceeded to wear it with my uniform
-I wish I was a guy so I could wear ties all the time
-I suggested to Mr. M that we get ties for our uniform
-This is an unusually long post... hmmm

[Amber]

-Today was awful.

-In art someone threw a pencil sharpener across the room and it hit my eye.
-I mean, what are the chances?
-But it hurt so bad.
-It still does, actually.

[Ennui]

-I'll kill them.
-Probably metaphorically.
-Glad you liked Noble Uniforms, as ever

[SF]

-I did end up posting that paper
-Go and comment/criticize/suggest anything!
-I have to turn it in tommorow

Cold Stone has the worst ice cream on the face of the earth.

[Antenora]

-There's a Coldstone ice-cream shop somewhere in my town.
-My family got ice cream there once, and none of us liked it.
-My father said the ice cream had the texture of toothpaste, which was pretty accurate.
-And the mint ice-cream tasted like toothpaste as well.
-I just watched Bush's speech, for Government class.
-The teacher encourages us to watch C-Span, and he has that channel on in his class sometimes.
-I haven't found time to watch C-Span yet, and I'm not even really sure if we get it.
-We get some cable channels, but a lot of them are all static-y.
-Mother bought me the Discworld book Guards! Guards! at Borders today, and I'm about half done with it now.
-It's really good.
-I'm hoping to go to Borders this weekend, because we have some coupons that are good for a few days, and there are other books I'm looking for.

[raoawr]

Not only does the ice cream there have a toothpasty texture, but it has an awful aftertaste.

[A. the Returned]

-So I'm in Religion again.
-We finished our movie and we have free time.
-Some earlier asked me if 667 was some kind of witch craft site.
-I think the black background is off putting.
-Since when have I been associated with witch craft though.
-There is someome waiting to use thiscomputer after me though I warned them I won't be off this period.
-They still inisst on waiting though.
-I wish I could stay for the nameless novel clue but school always gets in the way.
-I'm really burnt.
-My face, neck and shoulders are very red.
-And sore.
-Aloe vera smells weird.
-I'm like a multicoloured rainbow.
-The other day my hands were purple, then in art they were blue, my shoulders face and neck are red and thanks to fake tan, my legs are orange.
-I have to put an other coat of tan on tonight.
-I don't think I'll be on tonight or the rest of the weekend as a matter of fact.
-Possibly Sunday morning if I'm not still asleep.
-But Sunday afternoon I'll be out.
-Goodbye then.

Edit:
-8 hours later.
-My burn has gone down although it's stil sore.
-Today as I was leaving religion my friends said that they would remember our religion class as me on 667.
-Oh, they say hi, too.
-I have to go soon.
-I mainly came to see the nameless novel clue.
-I have to get ready for tommorrow.
-Comps.
-Scary.
-I should be ready though and our coach is happy with where we are as a team.
-Because we are such a young team, though. We don't have anyone going up next year so we'll all be together again.
-That's the advantage of being a young team, the diadvantage is that we are less experienced.
-Oh well, we'll still do pretty well.
-I should go get ready.
-*does so*

-That reminds me of a weird asian toothpaste my mother got me
-It tasted horrendous
-My and my friend theorized that the chinese letters meant "Brick Flavour"
-Honestly, brick is the adjective that comes to mind when I look at that toothpaste
-So
-My auntie, uncle and grandpa have arrived
-And...uh...stuff
-Noble Uniforms is great
-Ennui should send all his Asoue stories to Handler himself
-Meh

--Some earlier asked me if 667 was some kind of witch craft site.

-I got asked something like that once, while using 667 in the school library.
-I think it was my teacher who asked that, actually.
-And someone said "Dark Avenue? Sounds creepy."
-I guess the 667 bit was rather unnerving, too.
-Even though the number of the beast is really 616, according to some sources.
-I hardly slept last night.
-Several times I woke up and thought I'd go check TheNameless.Novel.com, but I was too sleepy.
-Guards! Guards! is wonderful.
-I have a Government quiz today.
-I'm somewhat worried about it.
-I think I'll go read more of my Government textbook, and more of Guards! Guards! while I'm at it.

-I had a load of Maths homework to do.
-One of my Maths teachers had wanted us to do some exercises we started in class for homework this week.
-Problem is, he seemed to think we were telepathic, as he hadn't told us to do it.
-He kept on ranting on at us as if we were slackers, choosing to ignore the fact that when the entire class hasn't done something, it's probably not their fault.
-Anyway, I had to do those exercises, and then several pages more that teacher set.
-And then our other Maths teacher gave us yet more.
-It turned out that I'd accidentally done some of the wrong exercises for homework for that second teacher.
-I did 1D instead of 1C.
-And I wasn't the only one - at least one other person made that mistake.
-And I discovered that we're not allowed to eat lunch in the Sixth Form Study Room.
-One can eat in the Dining Hall, which is always full, or the Sixth Form Common Room, which is even more full.
-Or outside, I guess.
-I'll probably just try and get away with it.
-Or start shaking people off from me, and find a nice stairwell.
-There are plenty of gaps under the stairs which nobody would ever look in.
-I could probably eat in peace there.
-Anyway, I'm going to be having dinner in a few minutes.
-It wasn't raining today, although it was pretty sunny earlier.
-On Monday, I don't have to leave for school until 5 minutes to 11.
-General Studies that day has been cancelled because they're using the main hall to take photographs.
-It'll be my fourth week back before I have a General Studies lesson.
-The teacher probably isn't too pleased about that.

[Amber]

-Hi.
-I can see better today.
-But my Mum had to collect me from school because my eye came up in a bruise.
-We went to the hospital.
-Grrgh.
-We waited three hours, then a nurse said we'd have to wait at least another two.
-At least.
-So we left.
-It hurt, but it didn't hurt that bad.
-So I have a bruise and lump, inside my eye.
-It should go down.
-We might be going to Poole tomorrow.
-My Dad didn't take the job in Kuwait, and got one in Poole instead
-I don't know why we're going, actually.
-But I might be able to buy presents for Dan's birthday.
-I don't know what he wants.
-I need to get my Dad something, too.
-I've been instructed to draw part of a shoe for Art.
-But which shoe?
-I have loads.
-Too many.
-Hmm.
-My computer keeps randomly shutting down so I'll post now.

[Antenora]

-I hope your eye recovers quickly, Amber.
-Today in Literature class, we read Strunk & White's style manual.
-The teacher wants us to know how to write properly, use clear diction and such.
-When we finished she said "We're restored to the land of the living, out of the kingdom of the shades..."
-She's a nice teacher, although her class is hard.
-At least the big Catcher in the Rye write-up thing is finished now.
-Mr B keeps saying ominous things about a quiz next week on the history of photography.
-I just overheard someone say "...You'll want to committ suicide".
-Apparently we're going to design a game in Visual Basic class.
-That won't be for months, though.
-Currently we're just making windows with buttons and things that change the text of labels and stuff.
-My government quiz is next period.
-I think I'll skim over my notes a bit before running off to that class.
-That class isn't for about 15 minutes, though.
