I "Heart" Rice (or Vocabularies Rule!)

hey,

just before we move into the main point of this post i would like to appologize for my blogging habits, what i usually do is write 4 or 5 blogs in one go, have tons in one day, then not write for about week or more. so here it is: i'm sorry.

now as you may have noticed from the previous post i have been on youtube today. i found another video i want to talk about, this one is quite different from the first though.

it's about a website called www.freerice.com it's very cool. there are several reasons i like this site; 1) it gives rice to people who can't afford food and such, 2) youo don't have to pay anything to give this rice, 3) it makes you learn while helping 4) it's vocabulary learning.

what you do is, you go to the site, on the front page there is a question that looks like this:

convalescence means:
recuperation
inquiry
hearty laugh
stack

you answer the question, if youo get it right 10 grains of rice will be donated for you. more questions will keep coming and 10 grains of rice will be donated for each correct answer.

here's a video explaining it really well: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cJiVfJjn7fw&feature=channel_page

i love this site because i love to help people and charities and stuff and i love to learn and expand my vocabulary. you should go have a look at it too, it's lovely.

LETS SAVE THE WORLD!

thanks for reading... i know this was probably boring for you. cya,

Steph
