Today I learned that a snipe hunt is a game that adults use on us innocent kids whilst camping. They say 'a snipe hunt is where you chase it to one kid who bags ths snipe and beats it with a stick.' The boys volunteer to bag and smack it. They say, 'go stand out there and wait till we lure it to you.' The kid stands out there while the rest of the people go back to camp and eat marshmellows until the poor kid figures it out.
(Last year in seventh grade they promised us a snipe hunt...we never got it. Today in History my teacher explained to the seventh graders I aid for what a snipe hunt was... :lol

Today I learned that there are over 300 possible more than 3 letter words contained, in and out of order, in the phrase Ludwig Von Betthoven.
I also learned that weather is plotting against us. It rained today, but stopped during PE so we still had to run, and then started raining hard as ever just as I began to walk home.

I learned that you have to watch yourself in the supermarket after a food recall. You could tell which stores were hit hard from the pet food recall - that isle was an absolute mess in Stop & Shop while Shaws looked like they didn't have to take anything off the shelves.

I learnt today that when it comes to parking it's each man for themselves.

I also learnt (yesterday) that sometimes there are some things you just have to do, regardless of the initial fear of it. If you don't, you'll regret it for the rest of your life. I also learnt that I'm a stronger person than I give myself credit for.
