I'm usually good waking up about 5.5 hours from now. I'm so glad that I don't have any more 6am mornings. I just wish I could reregulate my sleep schedule so that I am tired and hopefully sleeping at this hour so I can get up at normal time.
Part of it tonight may be my shoulder, which started hurting for no apparent reason around 11 hours ago, and, well, the bag I put what little ice I had in leaked. Onto my roommate's couch.

Holiday, so I usually sleep until lunch, or just before.

If I have time for breakfast its coffee and a bit of oatmeal. Usually I wake up 45 minutes before I have to leave though.

Eating American cheese and saying you know how cheese tastes is like eating American mustard and saying you understand mustard, or like drinking American beer and saying you know Beer, or like drinking American wine and saying you know wine, or eating American sausages and saying you know sausages. It's a load of shit.

Nope. It started hurting as I was walking down the stairs.

So glad I'm done with high school. My poor sister, she wakes at 530 each morning, and doesn't get home until after 2000 most days. And then does 4 hours of homework and still has more left to do. I pity her, it's awful. And she won't just skip one assignment because it's hard, it's 2am, and she's too tired to do it.

Sort of the same. I never ever use processed anymore. For anything.

The alternative, despite price, is way worth it, and I'm sure there's health benefits somewhere in there as well :p

Eating processed food and saying you know the real thing is the real load of shit. I'm sure there's SOME decent food in America.

Also, Australia beef and lamb ftw. No better meat on earth. :D

American=processed. Regional foods are the real foods here. I wish I was in Maine I could just eat lobster all the time. $4-5 a whole lobster at the docks is great.

Have you ever had Chinese grape wine?

I have heard it is completely terrible, and I can imagine based on the quality of everything else manufactured in China, but I'm 13, so I don't haz any alcohol (nor do I intend to)

Never had it, but honestly, I doubt anything trumps Australian lamb.
EDIT: As in the meat's quality, not the cooking method.
