this is the most boringest web site ever.I was hoping to do somthing fun!
Today's a very rainy day and I am playing video games.... That's one suggest?
Watch a movie with you Boyfriend and eat pop corn
wanna play monopoly or scrabble with me? I have no one to play with hahaha and is actually raining...thanks a lot.
Dude that freakin awesome, lolol. I'm printing this stuff out cuz honestly these things seem like fun things to do even if it's NOT rainy! Lol. Yeah, I already do Su DoKu puzzles all the time--they're ENGROSSING! I think the two that appeal to me the most though are learning "Hello" and "Good bye" in all the different languages (specifically because I'm going into the NAVY this summer as a CTI/translator) and learning about animals on the Discovery channel. The only thing I would add to the language thing is to also learn how to say "I love you" in all those different languages too. The only thing I wouldn't specifically like about the Discovery channel, though, is the fact that those tv people actually believe in evolution and the big bang type of junk. I'd just turn the volume down when they talked about that though, and listen to all the factual and real stuff. Like I said, I'm printing this, and fantastic ideas here!
