Whenever people mention 'sweet potatoes' I go: 'Huh, that sure sounds interesting. Maybe I should try it. Is it really like, potatoes... only sweet? Oh my.'

And then I remember that stuff is only a camote and then I think: '... ew. Camotes.'

FOREIGN LANGUAGES: GLOMOURIZING HORRIBLE VEGETABLES SINCE 1521.

Also, I'm twenty years old. *criez*

Real post tomorrow once I'm not so dizzy with red wine.

I wanted to wish a happy birthday yesterday but, power shortage most of the day, ugh. So yes, happy birthday! Be glad you're not 21 yet, lol.

hee...reminds me of how my fellow Americans think "ooh, so exotic" about foreign-sounding things and I just laugh.

I never know whether I should cringe or laugh, haha.

OMG HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! And, on a totally selfish basis, YAY for you being 20! It makes me feel less alone. ;D *still needs to change her bio and is shamelessly putting it off*

And, ergh, sweet potatoes. They are the BANE of my life. Because they seem like they are nice but then I start adding salt and more salt until I realise that I'm just trying to turn them into normal potatoes. :/

Aw, thanks! ♥ YAYZ ANTOTHER TWENTY YEAR OLD! Everyone's either 17 or 25 these days, aren't they? ;__; (lol, the nile ain't just a river, darling *g*)

I HATE that stuff. In here they're eaten with this sirupy... thing, on them and it looks so horrible. o_O

Ahahha, I always forget the English word eggplant. Because it doesn't look like an egg D: Aubergine is easier to remember. Because eggplant = purple.

And it's also hard to remember "sea urchin." Because in my language they're literally "pig hair" or, I guess, more appropriately, "boar bristles." And I keep on wanting to translate it literally into English X-D What does an urchin look like anyway?

[link] [reply]

Dude, I didn't even GET what an eggplant was until a while ago and I went 'WAIT, IT WAS A BERENJENA ALL ALONG? I THOUGHT IT WAS SOME FANCY-ASS PLANT!' lol.

Lol, that's a strange name. It's the same in Spanish, so I don't get confused, but for some reason I always find the word 'urchin' really funny. Hee.

Sea urchin does look like a hairy...thingy...

My cousin stepped on them once when swimming in shallow water. Ouch. Turns out instead of plucking the spindles out you HAMMER them in O_o I forgot what the explanation was, but this guy was hitting the spindles on my cousin's heel with a glass bottle.

Oh my God, that sounds like torture, or something. o_O I would've yelled 'GET AWAY FROM MY FEET' and run for the nearest hospital, true or not. (if I'm gonna get HAMMERED by someone, it better be a doctor, srsly.)
