BRAINY JENNI

Namaste!

last sunday I was just looking at books in Periplus Plaza Indonesia when I spotted this book on the children corner. The cover interested me so I took an unsealed one and I started reading it. I was so into it that I sat down behind a display desk and just kept on reading.

when ci lani saw me reading it she told me to buy it but I said nope it's not really that important, I'm saving for something anw. And then my mom came and ci lani asked her to buy it for us. Of course she agreed , it's a goddamn almanac !



I found some interesting informations inside and here are they

didaskaleinophobia = a fear of going to school
chrematophobia = a fear of MONEY

bat spit may save lives
a cockroach can live up to nine days without its head

WAYS TO BE POLITE:
-slurping your soup in China and Japan
-arrive 15 minutes late to parties in India
-stick the tip of your index finger in your ear and then kiss it to show that you enjoyed your dinner in Portugal

in Ethiopia new year comes in september
ketchup was originally sold as medicine
fried ants= movie munchies from Colombia
in Greece, nodding your head means no, and shaking it means nothing

WAYS TO OBTAIN GOOD LUCK
-carrying bat bones in Greece
-breaking glass in Bulgaria

It is against the law to predict the future in Yamhill, Oregon
2.5 months is the approximate length of time it takes for jell-o to return to earth after being tossed onto the ceiling

some of them are pointless and ridiculous , but this almanac has totally broadened my knowledge! ha ha I'm such a brainy, aren't I?

I haven't read the whole book, of course, but I'm looking forward to!

P.S : eh ayo dong post something ini blog kasian hahah
