All of a sudden I was like, "HUH??!" You know, who expects "Belgian" chocolate to be from Canada? I looked at the box carefully, and read, "BELGIAN" on the front. Then I turned it to the back, with the nutrition lable, then looked at the fine print on the bottom. "PRODUCT OF CANADA." I was startled, that such a thing could ever exist. Then, automatically defending Trader Joe's, I said, "Well, maybe they're Belgian type chocolates. You wouldn't know if they were something like that... And maybe when they say Canada, they mean that the chocolates were shipped to Canada and that they were really made in Belgium and that they're really actually genuine and that Trader Joe's is just really bad at expressing ideas with grammar..." My logic power went nada, and my dad kind of looked at me weird. But from then on, I have always referred them chocolates as "Canadian chocolates." Ralph and I still think that they're yummy though. CANADIAN CHOCOLATES. WHOO! :)

My Utter Dissapointment...
I was munching on a Belgium seashell chocolate from Trader Joe's one day, when my dad approached the box of chocolates from which I was eating from. He starting examining it with a strange look, then suddenly declared: "Product of Canada."

Progress Update
Just checking in here, with myself, of the new writer's notebook thingy! :) I've given up the part about the whole "bring it everywhere" thing, kinda annoying now. BUT, im still writing in it almost everyday, so i guess im making up for it. Im practicing writing really REALLY long entries so far, and it'll help my writing hand. I've boxed all the things that i think should be blog topics, so hopefully now i'll have more interesting stuff to write about. [Or rather, its ironic the fact that i'm saying i'll have better things to write about, when i am writing about the actual event of me brainstorming for things to write about. That sort of takes away the whole point of me talking about it out loud. Then again, you'll never know if i dont say it, right? Well, i guess you really dont need to know that... Gah! Voluntary information is always unnecessary.] Anyways, Ralph will always be there to support me. Haha. :] [Launches tomato at reader*]
