Day 301

"Be the last one standing! Make sure to be asked to leave!"

Well since tonight was my own party, I didn't really have to ask to be asked to leave or anything. I did make sure that I was the last one up, if for nothing else than to make sure that everything was cleaned up and put away.

Day 300

"Say Hello to everyone in the street today."

I didn't do too much street walking today, but I did say hi to everyone in the grocery store as I was passing them. I got some weird looks, but for the most part people were friendly.

Day 299: Book Club Day

"Here is a list of the top 100 masterpieces of Western literature. Work out have many you have read (no cheating now). Then work out how many you will have to read per year to finish them all."

Out of the 100 listed, I've only read 5 (including This Book Will Change Your Life by Benrik). With 95 left,  I figure I can read 1 a month and that will last be about 8 years. I think I'm ok with that.

Day 298

"How do you know you weren't adopted? It is estimated that one in twelve people are adopted. Many never find out. If you have ever felt different from your parents or your siblings, seek out the truth today. Check by calling the National Adoption Information Clearinghouse (NAIC) on (301) 231-6512"

The number in The Book doesn't actually work, and there isn't a number anywhere on their website. While I think it's a pretty safe bet to assume I'm not adopted, I guess I'll never know for sure.

Day 297: Earn a Diploma

"The Book have arranged a cooperative with the University of Harvard (Illinois) that could procure you one of many prestigious qualifications, based on your previous education, your life experience and, of course, your Book itself. Obtain a prosperous future, earning power, and the admiration of all!"

Fortunately, I just earned a diploma less than a week ago! The downside is that my school holds the actual diploma for 6 to 8 weeks after graduation for some reason. I'll just wait for that to get here...

Day 296

"Cross out a key word in a book."

I knew what I wanted to do for today, but unfortunately I don't actually own the book I wanted to use. Thankfully, I found a picture of the same thing somebody had already done.

Day 295

"Today, propose to a complete stranger."

No matter how hard I tried, the quarter machine at the grocery store wouldn't give me a ring so I could propose to somebody. I guess it wasn't meant to be...
