DAY 4: Greek + the grad party + non-Earth Hour

I've started my basic Greek lessons over at Livemocha. I'm still in Lesson 1 out of six, and so far I've muddled up my mind with Greek greetings and basic questions. "Kalimera" - Good morning; "Kalo apoyevma" - Good afternoon; "Kalispera" - Good evening; and a hoard of other stuff on Unit 1 Lesson 1. So far, it's awesome, especially since I'm still in the Learn part. Wait 'til I get to the Speak part of the exercises, where I shall then attempt to speak in Greek, which is probably enough to send Aristotle's bones clattering in his grave.

On another cheerful thought, I find I like graduation parties when it's not my graduation. My cousin graduated from high school today and held a grad party at his house for the whole extended family. Lechon (stuffed pig to those not from the Philippines) and lasagna, I found out, are awesome together. That, plus an ultra-cute, black-brown-and-white shih tzu puppy put me on hyperactive mode. Then I got to play Starcraft II, which had epic graphics, and my day was made.

The only thing that sucked about today was my non-Earth Hour. I wasn't at home to enjoy the total darkness of the house coz the grad party lasted 'til 9pm. We got home with only five minutes to spare before Earth Hour officially ended. Darn.

Oh well, there's always next year's.
