The Astrology people are Trekkies.

The Strength card affirms that my alter ego today is the seductive beast of my Animagus, whose superpower is to master self-control to tame fears or impulses to prove of what stuff I'm made. I boldly go... but a willful heart is part of my secret identity. My infinite fortitude is seen by what I do, sacrifice or defy to stand up for what I feel is right, including admitting when I'm wrong, keeping out of it or not dignifying responses provoked by moral cowards and brutes. When resolve is tested I draw on the courage of my true character from the more savage or humble virtues of my natural instincts to maintain objective by composure. This enables me to hold my tongue against bravado, repress claws at empty threats, and not turn tail in pride against passion when it's hard or inconvenient, but to persuade through self-restraint until assimilation is complete or resistance is futile.

This nifty little Astrology.Com Tarot excerpt is in dire need of commas, and whichever Trekkie wrote this needs a slap on the head. I liked the Tarot card updates when I first got them, but whoever's writing them　now is really overdoing it with the big words and long sentences.

I really ought to get my daily dose of Coke if I plan to last the day; Thursday is my long day, and today I have to meet with my tutors, my Japanese teacher (again), for the Open Campus planning meeting, Prof. Bussinger for... well, probably the same thing, and then I have 2 afternoon classes. At some point, I'd like to get a lunch I can actually stomach.

Note: peanut CREAM is *NOT* the same as peanut BUTTER.

Oh, and I've gone through my address book and it looks like I have Katia's address, but I think I'm missing Eva's, Stephanie's, Crystal's, and anyone else's that wanted me to send them stuff (on LJ, that is. My parents and grandparents don't count). You can either comment here (comments are screened by default) or text message me with the info, and I'll be sure to send a postcard, letter, or 'omiyage' your way at some point. ;)

how is it different? o_O;

Peanut Cream has added sugar and high fructose corn syrup (liquid sugar, the stuff they put in soda), and looks like melted caramel. It smells like peanuts, but it doesn't exactly taste like peanut butter. It's probably used more for desserts (as a topping, like a frosting, or to make something peanut-flavored, as with cookies or cake).

However, jelly here is eaten right out of the cup, as a dessert (like how Americans eat applesauce) but jam is explicitly for topping your bread (toast, croissant, etc).

Depends on what you're talking about, but almost always YES.

As my french teacher calls foreign things, it is high class *sniffs*

And it seems that school lunch over the world is currently and most likely unedible. *shudders at french school lunch*
