Bistro europaCategory: food
We went to bistro Europa on elmwood last night for dinner. The food
there is so amazing. On the way out I noticed this sign. I think it
would be fun although $65 is kind of steep. I am so curious about
scandanavian night.

I think its just for one because I saw another poster with just one night listed and it still said $65.

Is that $65 for six meals? Because that is pretty damn good.

yeah 65 is kind of a lot- especially for there. But maybe it included pricey wine? I love that place though.

Slanties WIth MustachesCategory: trends
So I am obsessed with the idea of havign slanties as displayed on (e:lilho,48137) The best part is the actual website they come from: here is a link to the photo gallery 
Apprently, in NYC the I didn't shave because I am a lazy computer programmer and my mustache is getting ridiculous is in. I should move there and be cool instead of being a loser here. Look at this cutie wearing slanties.

Good at MathCategory: school
In 1988 I was in fifth grade. For some reason we had to take the california Acheivement Test. I scored higher than 99% of all 5th grade students in the nation in total math. This led to me skipping some math by being in an advanced math class in 6th grade which resulted in no math in 8th grade which led to the end of me as a mathelete ;(
I was kind of surprised because I never think of myself as a math person anymore.
I also was 97% for vocab, 96% for comprehension and reading but only
76% for spelling. Luckily, spelling has not been very important in my life since the computer corrects almost everything.

I was never good at Maths. I am still not good at it. :D

I was ok in Math better then some (and on the Math team). This is going to sound weird but my higher level stuff was better then my lower level stuff. Devide decimals and percentages, what I'm sorry I don't get it. But yet give me one of those crazy things with () and [] and I was ok. But then yet in chemistry I could never balance those equations, I'm sorry that never made sense, it seemed like the numbers got taken out of thin air or something. It seemed to me the trick to math unlike science is that he didn't want or need to understand how it works. If you tried to you would be lost. What you needed to know was what formula to use when, you had to remember how to do stuff. Know why or how in math wasn't the way to go, or at least not for me.

Did reagents in the HS. On SATs I had one math question wrong, 3 verbal questions wrong, and that's with everything answered iirc. And I'm also a college dropout.
Go figure.

I was a super nerd all through school, so I had pride about being in the 99 percentile, and even knew what percentile meant.
I haven't used my math skills in some time though, so I've likely lost them.

Hell yeah I was a math geek too. Except instead of getting to skip a year of math, I got to take Course 1 at a girls' high school, but of course in 8th grade I was waay too awkward for that to actually mean anything. And how's this for dorky: I did better on the Regents than all the freshmen, so they had to send my achievement certificate to my elementary school for awards day.
When I got to a larger high school it turned out I wasn't really all that, so although they had to put me in with the older students I ended up in the remedial section. Alls I'm saying is: Anthony Michael Hall in the Breakfast Club.

OH! I see. Okay, it makes sense now. :)
Drexel is a manufacturer :::link:::
So why is it called a Drexel?
I've got the Drexel pics on my camera. I'll upload them tonight. Actually, I have a huge amount of photos to share.
So is the photo shoot going to be posted? :)
We also did one last photo shoot on it. If that couch could talk..
