Clean Room

This weekend was a beautiful weekend...if you love rain! Yes, this weekend was not one of the better ones in the time of been in North Carolina. Rain, rain, and more rain, thats what the weekend was like. I even hear some thunder as im writing this. Although, the rain took a break for a while saturday night, and became more like a light mist. I took advantage of this and went to this awesome thai restaurant. Since we dont have a car, we had to walk, but it is well worth it in the end. The food is really good, I ordered pad tsee eww (im pretty sure thats how you spell it) and my friend ordered soup served in what they called a volcano pot. This pot was amazing, it literally looked like a volcano and when it was served to us, fire was coming out of the middle through a metal spout and then there was soup all around that.

Ever since coming to college, I have really been brushing up on my cultural side. I have eaten both mongolian and thai food, the "real" food. By "real," I mean that the food was from and made by the recipients of that country, not made to impersonate it. Both the Mongolian and Thai foos was really good, although the origins of the food are similar each has its own eclectic taste. Curry is a food that made an impact heavily on most asian cuisine. I, myself, am not fond of curry, its too spicy for me, after all it is spices made into soup.

After waking up to a stomach full of asian food, I decided my room neaded to be cleaned. I vacuumed it about an hour ago, and the floors were absolutely disgusting. The vacuum I have is not one of the best, but it is still efficient. I call it the Devil, since its brand name is Dirt Devil. While vacuuming, I noticed it wasnt picking up the obvious stuff on the carpet, and it was annoying me. So, instead, I tried to use the small tube like thing that you use to get corners on the whole carpet. It was demanding but was working until that got clogged by mass amounts of hair...yeah I know thats disgusting. I had to pick it out with my hands and throw it away. Then I saw the other part that wasnt working as well and figured out why it wasnt picking the dirt up...it was also clogged. So then it took me a good five minutes to maneuver the dirt out of the tube. After I was succesful with that, I really got going with my cleaning and now the carpet looks stunning. I can now walk on my carpet with my socks again, all thanks to Devil. =)
