I have a good feeling about everything with my brother. He is currently on house arrest and he is eventually going to rehab. I felt so good when I saw him for the first time. He looks much better and seems much happier. I think jail helped clear his head. He actually wrote poems for everybody, which is NOT like him at all. For the first time in a long time, I had a normal conversation with him. We played some n64 together and had fun. That's is a huge change. We were like gasoline and matches before. I couldn't stand him and he couldn't stand me. I think everything will work out. I hope so. And thanks, Cody, for your concern. I hope everything goes well for your brother. You'll have to keep me updated :)

My boyfriend and I went into the city yesterday. We had a really awesome time. We passed a Vietnamese restaurant and saw the giant bowls of soup people were eating; it looked delicious, so we went in. I got this soup that had spinach, ground pork sausage, I think tofu (wasn't too crazy about that), rice noodles, and a tomato and chicken broth (I think it was chicken). Holy hell, was it yummy! My boyfriend got a spicy soup, which I did NOT try... I'm such a weenie when it comes to spicy food! Medium salsa is pushing it for me! But if you guys ever get the chance to try Vietnamese food, I totally recommend it! I was craving it for the rest of the day! I can't wait to go back! 8-)

Haha, I love spicy food. I actually tried out a Bhut Jolokia chili pepper (considered the spiciest pepper in the world) about 4 years ago -- it was delicious! ...of course that doesn't mean that my mouth didn't feel like it was on fire, which is an EXTREME understatement :P

I love those peppers they are realllly good! My friends don't like spicy stuff too. We were in my backyard and had these spicy chip things. One of my friends tryed one, she had to drink a whole bottle of water to get the taste out. One of my other friends put ice in his mouth for like, 5 minutes!

Pretty sure you're thinking of another pepper -- these ones were imported from India and are REALLY REALLY hot. As in, it feels like there's a flame in your throat, literally. I don't think a full bottle of water OR ice for 5 minutes would do a damn thing :)

I know the hottest pepper is the ghost chili. The heat lasts for hours. My mum and I watched YouTube videos of people eating them. It's pretty crazy.

The Bhut Jolokia chili pepper (Assamese: ভূত জলকীয়া bhut jôlôkia; Bangla: নাগা মরিচ naga morich; Manipuri: উমোরোক umorok), as it is commonly known—also known variously by other names in its native region, sometimes Naga Jolokia—is a chili pepper previously recognized by Guinness World Records as the hottest pepper in the world. The pepper is typically called the ghost chili or ghost pepper by U.S. media


Yeah, that's the one I had. And yeah, it did last for hours. I had to pretty much go to sleep in order for the normality effect to replenish. It was Hell, but it was pretty enjoyable nonetheless.

I just said I ate those peppers, my friends didn't. They just hate spicy stuff in general. The spicy chips were jalapeno peppers. No where NEAR as hot as the one you ate as well as I had eaten before. I love spicy stuff! Anyone who eats them is crazy Phyre :)

Actually, I now realize why I said the whole "another pepper" thing: your "I love those peppers they are realllly good!" line. Chances are you've never tried them since, to my knowledge, they aren't readily accessible by everyone...that and you would definitely remember it for the rest of your life :D

The spiciest pepper I've ever eaten is a Habenero, but I bet that's like comparing a Kaboom to Kleever and his Hand!

I am pretty sure it was the pepper. It was actually hotsauce made of it on hot wings. Hot wings are really good too. That pepper had me drinking alot of water (I am dumb :D ) That really had no affect as you said before. If it wasn't the ghost pepper, it was probably something similair, just 90% sure it was a ghost pepper.

My god I missed my bed! It sucks having divorced parents and having two houses... especially when you much prefer one house over the other. It also sucks when it's snowy because my car is not friends with snow, so I can't make it up my dad's driveway sometimes.

I feel bad liking one house more... my mum's is stupid close to the train tracks... and I have a phobia of trains. I can't sleep in my room because of the noise; if I do try to sleep in my bed, I end up waking up around 3 or 4 in the morning because of a train. So I generally sleep on the couch in the basement... not fun.

Let me assure you that I am not making fun of you when I ask, did your phobia of trains keep you from playing the minecart levels in the DKC series?

Are minecarts trains? No... I like Sunset Riders, which has a train in the second level. But it doesn't look or sound like a real train.
I do hate watching movies with trains in them. The noise makes me shiver and I grind my teeth. I know this will sound really stupid, but I think I was hit by a train in a past life.

Hit by a train, hmm? Maybe it's like you said and the loud noise is what gets you?

Idea: Donkey Kong Country Sunset Riders. Steve: DK, Billy: Diddy, Bob: Dixie, Cormano: Kiddy.
Dixie has long blonde hair like Bob, Billy and Diddy have similar names and both emit some sort of show-off vibe, DK and Steve are both the heads of their groups, and Kiddy and Cormano are both different than the rest.

No! Dixie has to be Cormano! They're both pink! Besides, he's always the one I play as and I don't want him to be like Kiddy! :P

It's not just the loud noises with the trains. I don't like to look at them either. The headlights FREAK ME OUT. There is nothing about a train that I like. I HATE everything about then.

Only real trains though, right? Fake trains like in Sunset Riders are nothing to you.

Well, OK, but who would Bob be then? I always play as either Steve or Bob and I think playing as DK or Dixie would be great. I mean, I suppose Kiddy or Funky could be Bob, I was just going by order of introduction and the (few) character traits of the Sunset Riders and Kongs.

Fake trains don't bother me. It's like asking somebody who is afraid of spiders if they're afraid of Arich in DKC3. It's not realistic enough. Trains in movies bother me, though. I'm sure that anybody with a legitimate phobia wouldn't want to see whatever they fear in a movie, or in a more realistic game.

I always forget which character is the dodgy one in sunset riders. He's the one that before you get a badge, he only shoots one bullet at a time. That's the one that should be Kiddy, since I don't like either character :P I have to look at the characters again, because I'm always Cormano. I like Cormano the best because 1) he has a poncho and 2) he looks funny when you hold the up button and jump. Bob (I think it's Bob; he's the one with long blond hair, right?) looks like he's head banging when you hold down and jump; you should try it sometime.

Yep, that's Bob, and yes, I think he does headbang. The two characters that shoot one bullet at a time are Steve and Billy, the two I picked for DK and Diddy. I suppose Kiddy could be Billy, since he's blue. DK as Steve is still in my mind, and I could see Dixie as Cormano. Well, that leaves my two favorite characters (Steve and Bob) as DK and Diddy. I could get used to that!

Right, so I stayed home today because I'm sick and I was playing Barrel Blast and I was doing the Platinum cup and when it shows everyone in the ceremony tight before you learn you unlock expert difficulty (that's what I was doing) I saw this placement:

4th(ground floor): Funky
3rd: Diddy
2nd: DK
1st: Cranky

Someone tell me that's just a coincidence...

My iPod of several years broke today -- it no longer holds a charge. I don't really use the iPod all too much nowadays, but it's depressing knowing one of my fondest, most notalgic devices no longer works.

Thankfully my phone (the Droid) plays music, though it's going to be challenging to figure out what to leave out (it only accepts up to 8GB... I have 40+).

Had a HUGE biology exam: 100 questions altogether (multiple choice, several "fill-in-the-blank" sections, an essay section and a "draw the stages of *insert biology-related occurrence here*").

I wouldn't be surprised if I got the lowest grade out of all the 90-whatever students in my class. I only knew maybe 15 of the multiple choice questions, if that. I knew absolutely NONE of the fill-in-the-blank ones... and for the essay, I literally wrote an apology note to the professor for wasting her time with grading such an abomination.

For the drawing portion, I drew 3 scenes for kicks: a dinosaur with palm trees, a bear with a jetpack in outer space, and a whale in the ocean. Hopefully my professor finds them at least somewhat amusing.

My sister's boyfriend said that one time he ran into a hard question on a calculus test once and just for kicks he put down "Mrs. Smith" (THE TEACHER'S NAME) as his answer and was so funny he still got it right!

This is how stupid my bio teacher was: on our biology exam, on the question where the answer was clearly bubbles I marked Lady Gaga as that was one of the answer choices (hold on---I KNEW it was bubbles!) just to see how he would react. He just shook his head, looked at Jeremy, and said, "I'm terribly sorry but I'm afraid Miss (insert my last name here) is now Most Likely To Fail."

Another examples of stupid teachers: my Spanish I teacher. On our 4th weeks exam one of the questions was Señor Lozano ___ bien (translated to: Mr. Lozano ___ cool).

Guess who got the question wrong?

Too close to home... A teacher from the middle school I went to was found dead, strangled. Her husband has a nasty history of abuse, harassment, and many other things... I'm almost positive her husband did it. What a dirty, rotten bastard. I didn't have her as a teacher, but my boyfriend did. This is so sad and scary.

That sucks, I can only imagine the pain her friends, family, students & fellow staff members are going through. I feel really bad for her students in particular; not only have they (presumably) had little experience with deaths of people they know, but they've had this woman as a teacher for months). They're going to remember this for the rest of their lives (that and they're probably going to be lost in whichever subject she taught for the remainder of the semester).


Had my 3rd exam in less than 48 hours (this time it was for Psychology). In stark contrast to my bio exam, I'm almost 100% sure I got one of, if not THE highest grade. Yay! :)
