Leap Year!

Hey look, it's Leap Year! Wait, I mean, Leap Day? Leap Year Day? Leap Day Year? BAH! It's February 29th, if you want to be so picky about it. :P

I'm not really sure why, but this day has always reminded me of leaves, not leaps. Maybe because they sound so similar. O_o

Ralph's looking at me weird.

What? What'd I do?

I know some people who are born on February 29th. Lucky duck butts.

Then again, it's obliously better to have your birthday everyday. Nobody would forget. Or at least that's what I think.

Worst Case Scenario

[Sigh..*] Today, the absolute worst thing happened. So, i was walking to class, and we were waiting for the teacher to come, and my classmate points to my foot.

[Pause.*]

My foot

had the remnants

of

poop.

O_o

Yep, thats right. I stepped in poo. At school. O_o Does anyone else find that strange? I mean, SERIOUSLY! Totally ruined my day. Hmp. So, i immediately rushed to the stupid restroom, and washed my shoe. In soap. And then scrubbed it a thousand times. And rinsed. Then another cycle of soap. Then some more scrubbing, and rinsing. By the time i was done, my whole shoe was wet. And school was way far from over. Ugh, worst experience ever. So, i went back to class, foot feeling weird, and slighly smelling of poo, with a lot of soap scent. I need to spray that thing down with air freshener... Come on Ralph. Let's go de-stinkify my shoe! ><

How It's Made

I was watching How It's Made on Discovery Channel one day, and the WEIRDEST thing went on the show. [dun dun dun...*] They started to talk about how to make an ARTIFICIAL eye. Yep, thats right, artificial eye. So, the process was mostly creating the colors. The iris had to be manually DRAWN on the "eye", [ i missed the part in the beginning about what the actual white thing is] and then placed into the patient's eye socket place thingy. Well, the drawing part was kinda cool [i think it was acrylic paint..?]. But i really got freaked out when they inserted it into the patient's eye socket. It was.. creepy. They even have some sort of coating that gets buffed so it becomes all shiny and looks like its wet. O_o So, if you're ever missing an eye, just go to someplace where they make artificial eyes! Well of course, no offense to people who do have artificial eyes, i am in no way creeped out by that, just by the process of making the artificial eyes. I mean, How It's Made is always elaborating on these things... It gets cool once in a while, watching all those machines at work. So far my favorite episode was the one where they talked about how to make toilet paper. ^^ Did you know the paper pulp is first bleached? Well, the paper is actually recycled paper turned into pulp, then bleached for safety precautions, but of course the bleach is safe. [I have no idea how though.] So, then they press it into paper and make it dry, then roll it onto rolls and cut those rolls to manufacturing size. It's SO amazing how those robots are so efficent. Where do they find the space to put those things? Well anyways, im surprised i even remember that [it was a while ago]. My memory cells are tired, so off to Animal Crossing i go! [Grabs Ralph*] Ralph, you're coming too. :)
