The Spices of Life
Monday, 14. September 2009, 12:27:12
This list consists of things you can do in virtual space (aka the Internet) and in the real world. Well, it keeps me and my friends entertained. You should try it out!

10: Random chat sites
Got nothing to do on a rainy morning? Tired of chatting with the same people in MSN? Well, try Omegle and Cleverbot out. You’ll be in for a surprise…
9: _______ for a day
Try and take initiative if you feel your life is a monotonous railway track. For example: Don’t eat chocolates for a day, or don’t turn on your computer for a day. Gosh that’s hard!
8: Geekologie
Do visit this site if you’re a fan of quirky and eccentric innovations. Some inventions range from edible keyboards to cookie cutters made of Lego.
7: F My Life
If you think that your life is doomed and you want to commit suicide, think again. Click here and see that it’s not only you feeling the blues today. It’s a worldwide phenomenon, so cut the emo-ness out.
6: Plurk
Ever get tired because of tweeting and getting nothing in return? Plurk gives a new twist. You’ll be given karma points based on how often you “plurk.” More amenities are unlocked as you gain more karma.

5: Friends
From bowling, window shopping, to playing arcade games, you will surely have fun with your friends. Just be sure not to invite too many of them.
4: Dares
Ask your friends to make dares for you, particularly on your birthday. This can range from skydiving, bungee jumping, walking outside with your undergarments in winter and the like.
3: YouTube
I know this is kind of a given already, but trust me, there are thousands of videos that are still undiscovered. People have different tastes, so I’m sure there are videos that cater to every humor available in the world. For starters, try this, this, and this.
2: Be alone
It seems contradictory as number 5, but you do need some quality time alone and reflect on your life. You can stroll around the shopping center, or watch a movie with you and yourself.
1: Travel
This is the epitome of my list. Based on a first-hand experience, I can say that this will really make your life fruitful. Try backpacking from Paris all the way to Prague. It’s an adventure like no other!

Well, yeah. I, for example, eat a piece a day. It doesn't hurt my diet, so it's fine by me. Besides, chocolates are healthy, if taken by moderation

You've never really eaten chocolate until you consume it as RAW ENERGY.

One guy's essay started, "Yesterday was my birthday."
Sometimes I wonder if he'll ever have a public birthday party. Maybe after the ten-year mark.

They didn't want to, but nobody was willing to argue with a hamster that big.

He was such a nice guy; certainly one of a kind.

I doubt Philadelphia USA is as cheesy ... and I can't imagine there's a link between the King of Spain and cheese...
Well...

Fan count is an unreliable indicator of an article's quality, and Opera knows this. The best article could come in dead last in the vote count, yet it would still win.
If you give up hope now, you've already conceded. Fight on!
