賣腳酸

我去查了Mescaline的中文譯名是什麼：仙人球毒。Mescaline英文明明聽起來很帥，為什麼中文名字就那麼蠢？

我在搜尋上打LSD的中文譯名，麥角酸二乙胺，輸入法自動選字居然給我拼成「賣腳酸」，笑死我了！

Ded Moroz

Ded Moroz, the Russian equivalent of Santa Claus. SO COOL!

有關鹹魚飯的笑話

上英文課時，小明坐在老師面前第一個位置。 
當老師教到：“Suspect，嫌犯”，小明立刻在筆記上寫上“咸飯”。
 老師不小心瞄到小明的筆記，但又不想讓他難堪，就提高聲量：“Suspect，嫌疑犯！
”只見小明遲疑了一秒後，便將“咸飯”改成“鹹魚飯”。
 於是老師再提高聲量說：“是“犯人的嫌疑犯！””
 小明聽了之後便再加了三個字，便成了“飯冷的鹹魚飯”。
 老師看到後，再大聲地對小明說：“我是說有一位嫌疑犯！” 
小明又再改成“魷魚味鹹魚飯”。 
老師只好走到小明旁邊，然後用手大力地拍打小明的肩膀說：“是那種“罪大惡極要死的嫌疑犯”啦!" 
小明只好又改成“嘴大餓極要食的鹹魚飯”。

不知是老師發音太不標準還是小明太餓。XDDD

Somebody That I Used to Know

Gotye - Somebody That I Used to Know

 My new favorite song. Interesting video, too, but the first thing I noticed were Gotye's very green eyes!

Wonderful Ending

There was a blizzard on Thursday. The school was closed and all the exams on the day were cancelled. I went out to taste the first big snow of the year and spent half of the evening chatting with Johnny.

Got a hug from my evolutionary biology professor. I finished exams, got straight A for this semester, and rewarded myself with a cup of frozen yogurt. Waiting to go back home. Wonderful ending of my junior fall semester. Can't ask for more!

Yew

Finally found the trees that grow those cute red fruits (aril) are called yew, genus Taxus.

They are very poisonous - the leaves can kill the cattle and horses that eat the plants, but the fruits are harmless to birds and allow them to be eaten and dispersed. I wonder if humans can eat the fruits too.
