So I spent my entire lunch break copy pasting 40 blog entries of mine for analysis. Below are the results:

The rainy season has finally begun and I need start gearing up for it. And I don't just mean remembering to bring an umbrella.
First order of business: pack the "rainy day" bag.
Okay so I'm probably one of the most paranoid people you will ever know.

Whenever Nards tells me we need detergent while we're at the supermarket, we'd head to the household cleaners aisle and get two to three refills. I knew at that time that it was a major water pollutant that kills plants and fish, and that it contains harsh chemicals that cause Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6177843459154552091.post-29058739063782607662010-04-20T20:44:00.000-07:002010-04-20T20:44:56.784-07:00Top Chef MastersI am very picky about the reality shows I watch because I despise drama especially contrived drama that they air for the sake of ratings. Although I do tolerate the drama if it's interesting enough.
I'm so happy that my sister introduced me to Top Chef Masters. This show gives me my reality TV fix sans the drama. It's basically your Top Chef, except the contenders are renowned and Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6177843459154552091.post-23044603315021589212010-04-20T18:20:00.000-07:002010-04-20T19:45:53.742-07:00Online StripsI am an avid fan of online comics. For some reason, I feel that comic strips are not worth buying unless it's a graphic novel or it's Calvin and Hobbes. Right now I am following two comics that are completely different from each other.

This thing is just great. It allows me to postpone reading to another time without having to add it to my bookmarks. :) I can just go back to it anytime unless I mark it as read then it will no longer appear in my list.

Usually, when my husband and I go grocery shopping we accumulate minimum of twenty plastic bags in assorted sizes (think of the little plastic bags they put butter in, and another one for soaps, then the ones for meats and poultry Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6177843459154552091.post-24730353259762471162010-03-22T22:15:00.000-07:002010-03-23T22:39:42.611-07:00First Push
With blogs, the first entry is usually the hardest to write.
I initially thought of ending it there and then just move on to the next entry. But I thought the better of it (in case my sister tells me it just won't do).
