I've skipped school for 3 days this week~

Finland has the best school system in the world, and you skip it.

:(

What the articles don't tell you that pretty much every students hates the education system with the whole of his heart.

nah, I'm just having one of these ''bad'' weeks. 1st time I've skipped 3 days in a week for the last year and a half.

So, it's trick-or-treat time for kids at the moment and it's apparently raining out.

Where did Halloween originate from?

No idea. All I know (from Gr.9 French class) is that it was originally named Hallows' Eve, so I'm guessing it's a religious thing.

Happy Halloween everyone. I didn't dress up this year. Didn't party or egg houses or ruin the lives of little kids. I am sitting in my room, trying to finish a project that's due on Saturday.

I want to watch a horror film, though, to celebrate. Any recommendations appreciated.

I used to get a lot of chocolate through trick-or-treating

.

krbee · « **Reply #8250 on:** November 01, 2013, 02:12:07 AM »

I love dark chocolate. Milk chocolate is too sweet for me.

megido-rev.M · « **Reply #8251 on:** November 01, 2013, 02:17:42 AM »

Given they are good quality, I like ALL chocolate.

krbee · « **Reply #8252 on:** November 01, 2013, 02:19:27 AM »

^How do you tell the quality of chocolate? I've always wanted to try different brands but I haven't been able to. Is is the taste? Texture? Or something else? D:

megido-rev.M · « **Reply #8253 on:** November 01, 2013, 02:24:27 AM »

I dunno, I just can tell when it's good or bad by eating it. Must be my good taste. The nose knows too

.

I'd consider KitKat good, for example.

krbee · « **Reply #8254 on:** November 01, 2013, 02:35:34 AM »

Ooh. I should use my nose more. xD

I used to love kitkats, but now they're too sweet for me so I can only eat one stick.

megido-rev.M · « **Reply #8255 on:** November 01, 2013, 03:21:45 AM »

Well, time for sleep.

The idea was that kids would dress up as monsters and "scare" other monsters out of people's houses in exchange for candy.

At least I think, maybe that's a different holiday.

Those $75+/kg chocolates are pretty good too. Usually chocolates for me are too muh nowadays though I can easily eat those super costly ones. >__> normally right now the only two normal chocolates I can stomach is Kit-Kat and ferrer rocher.

As for those super costly crap, my lil' bro buys them around once a month since he totally loves chocolate. And I take the liberty of having some too when I am around.

It depends on how you eat the chocolate.

Just like with headphones or speakers for music, basically all of them are about the same "quality wise"(Quality of the sound coming out, not the punch of it) if you run them at full blast. All of them being about equally shite. Where the differences come to life, however is when you take it easy and run a fitting song that's well recorded and at an appropriate volume. Only then can you enjoy the various aspects of the sound, only then can you make out each of the instruments, the sound stage... etc. If you just let it blast out its guts, they'll all be equally bad.

The same goes for chocolate. If you gobble it down, there is little to nothing to be appreciated. It won't matter much whether you're going for premium handmade chocolate or just the standard stuff from the local super market. When eating good chocolate, allow it to melt in your mouth, only then will you get to taste nuances of it.
