stuff and a meme
Spent the day surfing the net, sleeping, visiting relatives, and watching my uncle make a fool out of himself as he attempted to fly a kite. (Imagine, it was his first time to fly a kite -- and at his age! XD)
Oh yeah, and there was a Nemo!kite in the same field where my uncle flew the kite. 'Twas muy cute, but I think it was too heavy, or the string was too short, and it kept falling down. XD

Just because I have nothing else to do...

Go to Wikipedia. Type in your birth date (but not year). List three events that happened on your birthday. List two important birthdays and one interesting death. Post this in your journal.
Events:
1971 - Women gain the right to vote in Switzerland.
1990 - Collapse of the Soviet Union: The Central Committee of the Soviet Communist Party agrees to give up its monopoly of power.
1991 - The IRA launches a mortar attack on 10 Downing Street (the UK's equivalent to the American White House, for those who don't know) during a cabinet meeting.
Important Birthdays:
1478 - Sir Thomas More, English statesman, humanist, and author (d. 1535)
1812 - Charles Dickens, English novelist (d. 1870)
*ooohhh...I share birthdays with two writers! *is delusional*
Interesting Death:
1045 - Emperor Go-Suzaku of Japan (b. 1009)
*mainly because his name is the most interesting out of all the people who died on my birthday. XD
feeling:
amused
listening to: Can You Feel the Love Tonight -- Elton John
