I got an email a few years ago with funny responses people had made on exams. I felt like posting it because its funny...... watch out for the elephant

Stuff I like

Image
Here is some stuff that I like : 1. My Scoot . It's a 1985 Honda Aero. Because its an 80cc, you have to have a motorcycle licence to drive it. My aunt gave it to me, and its cost next to nothing to get running; its $4 for a tank of the highest quality gas I can buy, and that lasts for about a week. When I inherited it this summer, it only had 906kms on it. 2. Vodka . I particularly like flavoured vodka; mango absolut is yummy. Generally I drink it with soda and lime, but cranberry juice is also good. Some of my favourite mixed drinks including vodka are: Caesers Vodka Soda Apple Martinis Vodka Lemonade Sex on the Beach 3. Craig . Craig is my boyfriend. He pretends that he doesn't like me sometimes, but he does. He makes me laugh. If he ever reads this blog, he will HATE that I am talking about him. 4. Travelling . I love travelling. Next year I want to take a big trip. I want to go away for a few months to Asia. Right now I am thinking China for a month, Thaila

I wanted to make a list of some of the good books that I have read lately; so that I can remember them. These are my top five from the last few months (in no particular order) 1. Water for elephants - Sara Gruen 2. Finding Nouf - Zoe Ferraris 3. A woman in Berlin - Anonymous 4. City of Thieves - David Benioff 5. The help - Kathryn Stockett Now, I'm not really a feminist, but when reading "Finding Nouf" (which takes place in Saudi Arabia and touches on some of the limitations faced by the women there) I got curious about what some of the restrictions they face are. After a few google searches I discovered that women are not allowed to drive, vote, testify in court, etc. Now,
