A book review, an encouraging quote, and things about my week and weekend

I know it's been awhile since my last post, but I hope everyone had a good weekend and hope you're having a good week so far. I want to share a little bit about my weekend and how my week is going so far. Well, over the weekend I finished a book called If I run, and it was a really good book that I recommend to anyone who likes to read, and likes mysteries. The book If I Run, is like a mystery because there are clues, and so much more, that I would like to tell you about, but I don't want to ruin the surprise for all of you, if you decide to read it. Then I started a new book, called Save Me. It's a book by Lisa Scottoline , and while I'm reading it, I am also listening to the audio book as well. I feel that it's a great way to learn too, because your reading the book, but you're also listening to the book and by doing that it's helping you both ways, because you get to not only hear it, while reading it, but you're learning more words that hopefully will expand your vocabulary. My week has been good so far, because I got to go with one of my friends yesterday to the school's choir concert. I thought it was fun, and I thought everyone did a good job. I enjoyed my weekend and I hope I will enjoy my week, even more. Next, I want to share an encouraging quote that I found on Google. Here is the quote. I like this quote because it's encouraging and I thought it would be a nice reminder and a nice quote to share for this week. I also liked the quote because I thought it was encouraging and uplifting. Finally, that is all I have for now, but I will be writing again sometime soon. Until then, please enjoy today's post. Also I hope all of you have a great week, and I can't wait to share something different next time.

A review of a show on Netflix and questions on if you would watch something again

Has there ever been a series or movie that you liked so much, you would watch it again? Well I have some of those moments, where I do think watching some movies or shows whether it be on Netflix, on TV, at the movie theater, or on DVD, are great to watch again. I love the show  Violetta because Violetta is entertaining to watch and I can't really explain it, but if you want to watch it then I recommend you giving it a chance on Netflix. There are three seasons, but trust me it's worth giving it a chance. I am going to re watch the show again, because right now I'm watching it in Spanish with the English captions, and then I'm going to watch it in English with the Spanish captions, then I'll watch it all in English with the English captions, and finally, I'll watch it all in Spanish with the captions in Spanish because I think it's educational to learn that way, for someone who wants to learn a language they already know or if they just want to continue learn the language. Finally, if you do give the show a chance, great and if not that's okay too. 

My Review on Sweet Potato Chips

If you haven't tried sweet potato chips yet, well then you should try them. No I'm not talking about buying sweet potato chips in the store, I'm talking about making sweet potato chips that are healthy for you and if your like me who actually enjoys eating sweet potatoes, then this would be for you. I reccomend them because they really are delicious and the only way I found out about them is because of a Facebook Group called Super Healthy Kids, I'm not sure if any of you follow that or have heard of it, but they posted the video of it. I have been wanting to try them and today I got to. I hope you will try them and give them a chance because kids will love them too, just as much as adults. I hope this review on Sweet Potato Chips helps you and I really do hope that you will give them a chance. Well that is all I have for all of you today, but until please enjoy this review, and until next time.

Educational photo on Hydrocephalus

I hope that this photo helps you understand what people with Hydrocephalus go through and people who don't. I also hope this photo educates you in some way. I can't wait to post again tomorrow or on Monday, but until then please enjoy today's photo, till next time. Also hope everyone is having a good weekend and will have even a greater week.

A video and some quotes for the weekend

Hi everyone it's the weekend and today I wanted to just be able to start off with a fun little video to kick off the weekend on a Friday night, so with that being said, let me share today's video. I don't know how many of you know the song How Far I'll Go from Disney's Moana but that is going to be today's video to start off the weekend and because it's Friday. The person who is singing in this video is a guy named Nick Pitera, he does a cover of this song and I think it's good and the girl who actually sings it, does a great job as well and it's become one of my favorite songs from the movie. Well with that being said, here is the video link. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dEbIxWURvUQ Now that you have the link to the video, let me share some of my favorite quotes that you may or may not have read before and if you have already read them, from when I shared these quotes I once found on Google, then I hope you won't mind if I re share them for the people who haven't read them yet. Faith is like wifi, it's invisible but it has the power to connect you to what you need. Worry ends when faith in God begins. Faith sees the invisible, believes the unbelievable, and receives the impossible.  Prayer is a shield to the soul. When life knocks me down, Jesus picks me up. God is like oxygen. You can't see Him, but you can't live without Him! God sometimes takes us into troubled waters not to drown us but to cleanse us. Take a chance. God cannot bless who you pretend to be. Stop talking yourself out of the things God has called you to do. The only way God can show us He's in control is to put us in situations we can't control. God has no phone, but I talk to him. He has no Facebook but he is still my friend. He does not have Twitter, but I still follow him. Do not try to be different try to be yourself. Be a good person but don't try to prove it. Sometimes God doesn't change your situation because he's trying to change your heart.Family where life begins and love never ends. If God sends us on strong paths, We are provided strong shoes. The worst part about being strong is no one ever asks if you're okay. Well this is all I have for right now, but I hope you enjoy the video and enjoy reading the quotes. I also hope everyone has a great weekend too. So what are your plans for the weekend and what do you like to do over the weekend? Sometimes I just like to read, or draw. I even like to type stories on my computer because I love to write. What kind of books do you like to read? What kind of stories do you like to write? What kind of things do you like to draw? Do you like to relax or do you like to go shopping on the weekends? I shared some of the things I like to do, but what I want to know is what do you like to do?

Schools and cultures around the world

Today I want to share a video about schools and cultures around the world. I hope you find the video informative and educational. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YOUGeaMrUuc Here is the video. I found this video on YouTube. I hope that it will allow you to see what kids in different countries, do at school, from what we are used to. I am hoping that this will also help you understand more of what kids do at their school. I am hoping to write something new and different tomorrow or sometime soon, but until then, please enjoy today's post. I feel what I have written so far, has been informative and educational. I also like that I am inspiring people when I write, because it makes me feel good knowing that they are liking what I write. I'm glad that I am writing because well it's been a dream of mine to become an author. I guess you could say I am one, from the stuff I have written on my blog. I just haven't gotten a story of mine published yet. I hope that maybe one day I can because then it would allow more and more people to read what I write. I'm not going to give up on writing and if you guys have any dreams or goals, well don't give up on them because you never know what can happen. I mean your goal or dream may come true for you someday. Also never give up hope either and never stop fighting for what you believe in, whether it be for a show, your favorite movie, book, or whatever the case, never give up. So as we are almost done with today, and tomorrow a brand new day, let's have a great end of the week and a great weekend. Also what are some of your plans for the weekend, and what are some of  your plans before the end of this week? What do you guys like to do during the week or during the weekend? What different activities do you do in your hometown or country or state? What do you guys do for fun, that is different from what we do? What are some of your favorite hobbies or interests? What's your favorite meal? What's your favorite subject in school? What is your favorite book? What is your favorite sport? Do you like being indoors more or do you like being outside more? Do you like to read or not? Do you like to play sports or not really? Is there any television show that you like to watch or do you not watch television at all? Does it snow where you live or do you not really get snow? Do you think it's hard to speak a different language if you are visiting family in a different country or is it simple because you understand what they're saying? So as you think about some of these questions, I hope you enjoy reading today's post and until next time.

Holidays that are celebrated in September around the world

So yesterday was Valentine's Day, and I hope everyone had a great Valentine's Day. Today I want to talk about different holidays that are celebrated around the world in September. I didn't write these someone else did, and I found these on a website on Google. Here is the first one, Armenia celebrates Independence Day as a public holiday. In the early days of spring 1991, Mikhail Gorbachev made a final effort to avert the inescapable demise of the Soviet Union. On March 17, 1991 a referendum was held to preserve the Soviet Union. Almost 75 percent of the population was in favor to preserve of the Soviet Union. The Armenian republic, the Georgian, Moldovan, Latvian, Lithuanian, and Estonian, in unison they all rejected the referendum. On March 1, the Supreme Council of Armenia decided to hold its own referendum on independence six months later. On August 23, 1990, the Supreme Council validated the Declaration of Independence, created by the new leaders of Armenia. The president of the Supreme Council at the time, Levon Ter-Petrossian, signed the document and Aram Manukian, a member of the parliament and of the ruling elite, read the declaration of independence aloud for the very first time. It was quite obvious to the Armenian people and its leaders that the Soviet Union’s collapse is inevitable. The Soviet Union survived for only another 16 months after the referendum. On September 21, Armenia held its referendum on independence. Almost 95 percent of the qualified voters took part, and more than 99 percent of these voters said “Yes” to the having an independent, free, and self-governing state. Here is the second one. Chusok Thanksgiving Day is a public holiday in South Korea. The Chusok Harvest festival is one of the most important festivals in whatever culture or religion it might be. It may be named as Thanksgiving in America, Pongal in India and in this case it’s known as Chusok in Korea. This festival is celebrated on the fifteenth day of the eighth Lunar month of every Lunar year. Let us see more about the Festival of Chusok, its Legacy, its rituals and what it means to the people of that culture. The most important activities are to give thanks to Mother Nature and the ancestors for providing a bountiful Harvest and a good prosperous year. The family members then gather to prepare the feast and offer it to the ancestors and Mother Nature in thanks. This is known as the ‘charye’. During this ritual there are certain food items that will always be found. They are kimchi, meat, fish, walnuts, persimmons, dates, pears, apples. And also there is a main dish known as the songpyon which is the crescent shaped rice dish cooked with low heat steamed on top of pines. It actually a very delicious treat and these are offered to the Gods and the Ancestors. Other rituals include the visiting of the tombs of the Elders and the ancestors. While visiting the foods that were prepared as a part of the charye would be offered to the ancestors. The tombs will be cleaned; the plants and other coverings over the tombs would be removed and the tombs will look almost as new. The people would return after paying their respects to their ancestors. A variety of folk games are played during the festival. Some of the games played are archery, tug of war and Gama fighting. The villagers would dress up as cows or turtles and go home to home singing about the festival or play bands of music. They would also be wearing the traditional outfit known as the hanbok. The day would end with the groups of people dancing in circles under the moon light. This is known as the kanggangsuwollae which can be compared to square dancing. It consists of both singing and dancing by holding to various tunes. These songs would all be about the love happiness and the integrity that the people of Korea share among themselves. The South western coastal regions and southern regions all too have sports like cock fighting, Bull fighting and the fun does not stop there. Finally here is the last one. Death of Quaid-i-Azam is a public holiday in Pakistan. The Father of Pakistan, Quaid-i-Azam Mohammad Ali Jinnah, is honored as a public holiday for the achievements of his public life. History of the Death

Jinnah was born on December 25, 1876, in a prominent mercantile family in Karachi and educated at the Sindh Madrassat-ul-Islam and the Christian Mission School at his birth place. Three years later, Jinnah joined the Lincoln’s Inn in 1893 to become the youngest Indian to be called to the Bar,. Jinnah rose to prominence and became Bombay’s most successful lawyer. Once he was firmly established in the legal profession, Jinnah formally entered politics in 1905 from the platform of the Indian National Congress. He went to England in that year along with Gopal Krishna Gokhale (1866-1915), as a member of a Congress delegation to plead the cause of Indian self-governemnt during the British elections. In 1924 Jinnah reorganized the Muslim League, of which he had been president since 1919, and devoted the next seven years attempting to bring about unity among the disparate ranks of Muslims and to develop a rational formula to effect a Hindu Muslim settlement, which he considered the pre condition for Indian freedom. I hope that this will educate you, and will give you a chance to learn something new.

My Trip to the Arc Encounter in Kentucky

Today I want to share my experience from my trip to Kentucky today. I was in Georgia for a few weeks and I had left Georgia yesterday, and we had spent the night in Kentucky. Well before we left Kentucky, I went with my parents to go see the Arc Encounter. Now the Arc Encounter is really amazing, and I think anyone who wants to go see it, should see it because the outside and inside are amazing. It's really just neat to see all the cool things and learn from it too. I want to share some photos from today , to show you what I mean. This was me by the doors, and I couldn't believe how big they were. The Arc Encounter is amazing and if you ever take a trip to Kentucky, go see it, I recommend seeing it because it's pretty incredible. I also learned that it's been open for only seven months. Now I didn't see the creation museum, but I do know that the creation museum has been open longer, than what I got to see today, Who knows maybe next time I will see the creation museum. One of the reasons I liked seeing the Arc Encounter, is because I learned from it, and I got to see what it was like.  Now the person in the picture above, just happened to walk in to look around too, when I was getting this photo taken. This is my dad and I by the doors again, getting our picture taken. Finally this is me leaving the Arc Encounter, to go to the Arc Encounter Gift Shop, to get my souvenir photo, and a replica of the arc. It's a model boat replica, but it's something I'll remember from my visit. Well that is all I have for now, so enjoy and I guess this is until next time when I write and post on my blog. I can't wait to post again, but until then please enjoy the pictures with the post. 

A poem on the Statue of Liberty

Today I am going to share a poem I found online, it's called The Statue Of Liberty Poem. I will even share the website name with you, so that you can look at it too. Here is the poem.

The Statue of Liberty Poem

“The New Colossus” by Emma Lazarus

Between 1820 and 1920, approximately 34 million persons immigrated to the United States, three-fourths of them staying permanently. For many of these newcomers, their first glimpse of America was the Statue of Liberty in New York harbor.

The statue, sculpted by Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi, had been conceived of as a gift of friendship from the people of France marking the two nations' commitment to liberty. France provided $400,000 for the 151 ft 1 in. (46.05 m) statue, and a fundraising drive in the United States netted $270,000 for the 89-foot pedestal.

The Jewish American poet Emma Lazarus saw the statue as a beacon to the world. A poem she wrote to help raise money for the pedestal, and which is carved on that pedestal, captured what the statue came to mean to the millions who migrated to the United States seeking freedom, and who have continued to come unto this day.

–The U.S. Department of State

“The New Colossus” by Emma Lazarus

Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame,
With conquering limbs astride from land to land;
Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand
A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame
Is the imprisoned lightning, and her name Mother of Exiles.
From her beacon-hand
Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command
The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame.
“"Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp!"” cries she
With silent lips. “Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!”

Here is the link to the website, that I found on the poem on. www.factmonster.com/ 

Different Customs and Traditions From Around The World

Today I would like to share with all of you the different customs and traditions from around the world.  I didn't write these, I found them online from a website. Here is the first one. In Russia, Father Frost brings presents for the children on New Year’s Day. Gold and silver coins are placed inside a brides wedding shoes in Sweden. Shoes must always be removed before entering a Japanese home. This also holds true for Indian households too. In many Western cultures, children leave teeth under their pillow for the tooth fairy to collect – usually in return for some money!  The Bahai People of Iran have their own calendar consisting of nineteen months each with nineteen days. In Brazil, New Year’s Day is celebrated with a bowl of lentil soup as the lentil is considered a symbol of wealth
Foot Binding, a beauty ritual for women to keep their feet from growing too large, is a painful Chinese tradition that only stopped in the 1930s. Wedding celebrations can involve five parties in some parts of the Middle East, beginning with the engagement party and ending with the wedding shower, seven days after the marriage. So these are just some different traditions and customs from around the world. I hope you enjoy learning about some of these, just as much as I learned from them and enjoyed reading them. I hope to post again really soon, but until then please enjoy today's post, until next time.

Blog versus having Social Media

Today's topic is about the difference between having a blog and having different social media, such as Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram, Now one thing about Social Media sites, like the ones I mentioned are that you can connect with the world, by liking, commenting, private messaging, re tweeting people, and video call, and do phone calls too, Except, when having a blog it allows you to have time to write whatever you want, just like Facebook does, but you can't tweet, you can't private message, you can't make video calls, or phone calls, you can post some videos and photos, and people can comment on your blog, but what's better? Social Media or having a blog? In my opinion, I like having a blog because it allows me to write and gives people a chance to see and read what I write, when they visit my blog online. I also like social media, because it allows me to talk to my friends, and maybe even play word games. Although stuff like that on social media is fun, having a blog doesn't give you the options to play word games or private message your friends. Which is that really a bad thing? I mean sure texting and social networking sites are great, but blogging just gives you more free time to write whatever you want and you can type as many words as you want with out a limit of how much your allowed to write, Which is nice because people who like to write or feel like they can't type anything else because of the limit, some social media sites have, are okay but  what about those who have blogs? I mean people who have blogs should be able to have their blog to write whatever comes to mind. I feel they are both useful, in different ways, but blogging can be so much better when you don't have a character limit or any limit, on what you feel is important to write about. I want to share a video from a show that used to be on Disney. It's a show called Girl Meets World. This kind of relates to the topic, I am talking about. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7LjJxCvwLvk This short clip, shows a little bit about how people use social media by what they watch on YouTube, or what they use. I feel that both are great, but I think social media is great when you want to share with people what happened during your day or you just want to do something else. Also having a blog is great, because if there is anything I've learned from the episode Girl Meets Forgiveness Project, from Girl Meets World, is that writing something on a piece of paper has unlimited characters, and the message will last a lot longer. So I've shared my opinion of what I thought about each, but what do you think? I like both, but I think a blog will last a lifetime, because what happens when the next new thing comes along? I mean what do you think Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram will be like in a few years? Do you think they will stay or do you think they will be a thing of the past? Also by that I mean, do you think people will forget about those social media sites, and be on to the next new social media site, that comes along? Finally, what site do you think will come along in a few years, if Facebook and Twitter and Instagram are forgotten? I'm not saying they will be, but if they were what do you think the new social media site will be in a few years from now?

Valentine's Day Education Post

The Celebration of Valentine’s Day

 Valentine’s Day is a festival of romance that celebrates love and relationships. Celebrated on February 14th, it is often marked by giving gifts to and spending time with loved ones. Valentine’s Day traditions include exchanging gifts, such as chocolates or roses, and a romantic night out on the town. School children often exchange Valentines Cards that may contain candy. Decorations typically feature Cupid and his arrows, doves, and hearts. Valentine’s Day also has religious associations, especially with the Anglican and Lutheran church. Religious celebrations may feature church services orfeasts. Cupid became a symbol of Valentine’s Day due to the fact that he is the Roman god associated with the erotic, passionate type of love. His arrows cause his targets to fall in love.

Valentine’s Day Love Quotes

There are many popular quotes that are used during Valentine’s Day. During this day many partners display their appreciation and love for one another by buying roses along with a card that typically has a love quote. Over many years some Valentine’s Day Quotes have gained popularity, while the classic Valentine’s Day love quotes have and will remain for many years. If you are looking for some popular Valentine’s Day quotes we have gathered a few. “If you have only one smile in you give it to the people you love.” -Quote by Maya Angelou

“Love will find a way through paths where wolves fear to prey.” -Quote by Lord Byron

“All you need is love. But a little chocolate now and then doesn’t hurt.” -Quote by Charles M. Schulz

 “It is better to have loved and lost than never to have lost at all.” -Quote by Samuel Butler

 “Each time you love, love as deeply as if it were forever.” -Quote by Audre Lorde

 Valentine’s Day – The history behind the holiday

Valentine’s Day actually started as a religious celebration. The holiday commemorated the line of Christian saints under the name Valentinus. The most significant St. Valentine was beheaded by the Roman emperor Claudius. The emperor had banned marriage in order to help his soldiers focus, but St. Valentine continued to marry couples in secret, as marriage was an important ritual for Christians. When St. Valentine refused to embrace paganism, Claudius had him executed around 269 AD. It is said that while he was in prison, St. Valentine developed feelings for his jailer’s blind daughter. Legend says that his love for her was so great that he healed her sight. This is the origin of the phrase, “From your Valentine,” as St. Valentine signed a letter to her this way before his execution. The holiday was further developed when Pope Gelasius attempted to rid of a pagan festival celebrated in February. Previously, young Roman men celebrated the spring festival of fertility by drawing a name of a female from the box, who would be their partner for the following year. The pope decided that this was not in accordance with Christian values, and changed the ritual to where the young Roman men would draw the name of a Saint, who they were supposed to aspire to be like for the rest of the year. The pope replaced the pagan god associated with the festival, Lupercus, with St. Valentine. As the change in practice was not very popular with the young Romans, the men used St. Valentine’s romantic themes to write letters to young women, often invoking the name of St. Valentine to communicate affection. These letters became the norm for Valentine’s Day sweethearts as the practice of courting developed during the Middle Ages. The practice of giving other gifts arrived in 18th century England. In contemporary times, these have almost completely been replaced by commercial greeting cards. Geoffrey Chaucer was instrumental in developing the holiday of Valentine’s Day. His poem, Parlement of Foules, from 1382, commemorated the engagement of Richard II and Anne of Bohemia with romantic themes and mention of Valentine’s Day. Although it is believed that Chaucer was actually referring to a different St. Valentine than the one associated with Valentine’s Day, its interpretation led to the romantic tradition of celebrating the holiday. This also started a tradition of birds as a Valentine’s symbol and this this is recurrent throughout romantic poetry, including that by Edmund Spenser and John Donne. Another source of the holiday’s development can be found in the “High Court of Love,” which was established in 1400 Paris by Isabel of Bavaria to make decisions regarding abuse, promises, contracts, and other issues surrounding females in romantic relationships. It is believed that women selected the court judges through a poetry reading competition. It is believed that the oldest remaining Valentine is from the Duke of Orleans, written to his wife while imprisoned in the Tower of London sometime during this same period.

Valentine’s Day in other countries

While most countries celebrate with traditional gift giving and time with Valentines, people all over the world celebrate in other ways as well. Valentine’s Day was first concentrated in Anglican countries, but now the holiday is celebrated all over the world. Jack Valentine is a folk character in Norfolk who leaves presents on doorsteps for children. In Slovenia, the holiday is also associated with agriculture, as it is considered the beginning of spring. This may have something to do with the connection between agriculture and love in terms of fertility, which were connected hundreds of years ago with the pagan festival. It is often the first day that workers head back to the fields, and many proposals occur in these fields. Latin America also refers to the day as “Día del Amor y la Amistad,” or the Day of Love and Friendship. It is distinct in the way that the holiday honors friends as well as lovers. However, the holiday in Latin America is typically celebrated in June due to the February 14th date’s proximity to Mardi Gras related celebrations. Finland also celebrates a similar “Friend’s Day” on Valentine’s Day. In other Scandinavian countries, the holiday is largely an American and commercial influence, mostly promoted by the flower and candy industry in order to stimulate sales. In China, men typically give sweethearts flowers and chocolates, but due to its proximity to the Lunar New Year, it is celebrated later in the year.  South Korean tradition has women giving men chocolate on February 14 and men giving women a different type of candy on March 14. Black Day, on April 14th, has those who did not receive anything celebrate their loneliness by eating black noodles. Valentine’s Day in Japan centers solely on giving chocolate due to advertisement by chocolate companies. These companies make much of their profit during this time of year. In many Middle-Eastern Islamic countries, the celebration of Valentine’s Day or the sale of Valentine’s Day-related merchandise is banned, believing that the holiday encourages behavior that is not in line with Islamic beliefs. However, the practice of exchanging flowers is gaining popularity in Pakistan despite discouragement from political and religious leaders.  Even though Valentine's Day isn't until February 14th, I thought I would do a little fun educational post, about it. These facts, I didn't come up with, they came from a website, I found on Google. I hope everyone has a great evening, and I can't wait to share something different with you later on. Well until then, I just want to say thank you for letting me share these fun little Valentine's Day Facts with all of you. Have a great rest of the day everyone.

My review on what I am reading so far

Right now I am reading a book written by Shakespeare and it has the original text and the modern text in English, so that you can read it side by side. The first side has it the way he wrote the play, and the other side gives you an English translation, so that you can understand the book. The book is about Julius Cesar. I enjoy reading it, because I read it when I was in high school. I read it with my English class. I think rereading stuff like that, gives us some help in understanding what the story is really about. Shakespeare's stories are literature, and should be read. I got the book at Barnes and Noble. I got it there, because I didn't think they had books on plays with what I have already mentioned in the beginning. I think that it's a great way to learn what these books are about, because you get to read the original text, and then you get to read what it actually means, in a way where we as the readers will understand it a little bit better. So far I am only on act one, of the book and almost to act two, but I'm enjoying every minute of it. Yes it maybe long, but that's not going to stop me from reading it. I think it is also helping me, because I have not read it in a long time, and I think that as I read it and continue to read more of the book, I'll remember exactly what the story is about. I know I haven't written in a long time, but I'm writing again. I don't have a lot more that I would like to say right now, so I am just going to leave it at what I wrote today. When I write again, you will know because I will have posted something new. So that's all I have to write for now, until next time.
