A New Story: Little Girl Story #2

Many years ago in a place far away, there lived a little girl who wanted ice cream. She had never had ice cream before but she had seen other people having it, and they looked like they enjoyed it very much.

The little girl told her mom that she would like to have ice cream while inside a grocery store, but her mom said "No, little child, you cannot have any ice cream!" But that just made the little girl want it even more!

When her mom was not looking, the little girl grabbed a little cup of frozen yogurt and hid it in her backpack. After they got home, she ate it in her room. It was good, but it had melted. She knew that was not what ice cream was suppose to be like. She vowed to have real ice cream the next time.

She would not have that chance for quite some time, because her mom was strict and watched over her 16 hours a day, but eventually the little girl would have the chance to taste ice cream again. It was at her friend's house. Her friend's mom offered her ice cream, and she ate it all. It tasted good, but not as good as the frozen yogurt, even though this time it was really frozen. The little girl did not want to have ice cream anymore.

Moral of the story:

1) Things taste better when you get them for free;
2) If you want something, try to get it from a friend instead of a relative;
3) Many times you only want something because you are told you cannot have it;
4) The real thing isn't as good as the substitute sometimes;
5) Girls can get away with everything.

Bicycle

I haven't posted anything lately, because I've been having too much fun with the new graphics card. The guy actually sent it to me and it works perfectly.

Gasoline price has spiked lately, so I bought a bicycle from Wal-Mart. One of the reviewers from Wal-Mart's website expressed her concerns that due to her heavy weight of 350 lbs, the bicycle might fall apart on her, but I am taking my chances.

I calculated that I could save $3 daily in gas if I rode my bicycle for two and half hours round trip to and from work. Granted I won't be riding my bicycle everyday, it should still save me about $30 a month, this will also result in a greener earth. As for the saving, I will use it to buy more gasoline.
