Milk curdles. And partly(?) curdled milk is obvious when you pour it on cereal. There goes my breakfast.

Today I learned that Twinkies are actually cakes and not chocolate bars as I'd always thought they were. xD I also learned that holding down Ctrl and then clicking a link will automatically make it open in a new tab. Why did it take me so long to discover this ;

Today I learned that Flotsams are adorable and Red Velvet cheesecake is still my favorite cheesecake.

I learned not to tell my friends about my writing projects. They think I'm obsessed with my NaNo and are probably annoyed of me

I've seen hydroponics/hydroponic farming mentioned in sci-fi stuff, but didn't really know what it was until I looked it up just now. Basically, plants are grown using mostly water and a nutrient mix, no soil. Sometimes there are pebbles or something to help keep the plants in place, but no real soil. There's even a method where plants are just suspended in air and sprayed with water. In general, kind of neat to me.

I learned a little about astigmatism. Mostly because my mother has it.
It's enough to make me glad that I don't have it. >_>

Today I learned that it is quite possible to fit everything I need plus Waldwoo in my medium-sized, yet conveniently shaped bag. ^_^
Waldwoo adventure today!

There are a lot of opportunities to get into plays/acting, even if just to work backstage.
Have you ever heard a story where someone puts an appliance that they don't need anymore out in their front yard? They label it 'free to a good home' and no one touches it, and then they put a price tag on it and it gets stolen by the next day? Apparently it happens a lot.
I knew I was sick at church yesterday. It was hard for me not to tell. I just learned that it was also hard for others not to tell. I was pale enough that at least one person thought I wouldn't make it out of the church. ((Don't worry. I'm fine now.))
I like shrimp. It's weird to look at, it's weird to hold, and I don't like the sauce, but I like the texture and flavor of shrimp.

Today, I learned that until the 1980s, ADHD used to be known as MBD, which stood for "Minimal Brain Damage".
...Totally unfair. (I'm so glad they changed it.) But now you know.

Today, I learned that you can transfer songs from your CDs to your iTunes library. It's easy, though tedious. Very useful. ^_^

Ripping CDs is one of my favorite things. Simple pleasures in life! Yes. It's fantastic! I've finally stuffed my iPod with music I like. ^_^ On the downside, some of the older files have a ton of little -bip-s popping up during the song. (All of the Disney from a CD I've had since I was five, plus an Aretha Franklin single.) It's really jarring. :/

Today I learned how you make white wine with red grapes! (Turns out you just don't use the skin since that's where the wine color comes from. Now I understand White Zin. XD

So I just learned that there is something unofficially called trypophobia, which is a fear of asymmetrical clusters of small holes. Like in lotus seed pods.
Dude. I totally thought I was a freak.
