no more school, no more books, no more bodies hung on hooks

[livingdeadgirl]

you know, in times like these I think it is important to look on the bright side
so everyone, please take a moment today to appreciate the little things in life
such as the songs of birds or the music of the ice cream truck
or the fragile warmth and unconditional love of a baby puppy

... or of course the fact that there is *~*~ just one more week till SUMMER VACATION!! ~*~*
who's excited? raise your hand! o/
or don't, since school's about to be out haha

That was the last part, and I did, or more accurately High School. I sometimes forget to use the American term. I came here on an exchange program, but I was home schooled until then and worked at my mother's vineyard.

And... before I forget, it's Lycee. Not a delicious little fruit that does not smile at you.

oh neat! did you ever get to do that thing where you stomp on the grapes?
that has always sounded really fun to me if a bit messy

also I blame autocorrect haha
actually I didn't know there was a fruit called that
what is a lychee anyway?

[true_noir]

Several times, though mostly for festivals. We usually used a more or less modern press.

It's a red, sweet fruit that grows in china. If you ever go to an import store, they sell lychee sodas. They're light and sweet. I rather like them, though it's expensive to get here.

[livingdeadgirl]

cool! I will have to try those sometime :D

If we're fortunate, maybe there's an asian mart, or they'll import a little one of these days? The husk isn't good for eating, but the inside is supposed to be very nice.

[livingdeadgirl]

oh I know for a fact there is at least one
we go there semi regularly
but now I know something new to look for!

[true_noir]

Outstanding. You will have to show me around one day. I admit I don't read Chinese, but I can figure it out.

Or just buy some gummies.

[livingdeadgirl]

oh I can't read Chinese either
or Japanese
but gummies are pretty hard to miss yeah

[true_noir]

At the very least they're going to be up at the front, so that is a bonus, and they make such good gummies. Real fruit.
