Sharing LARGE fruits

In the Stone Age, I imagine that I might have to change "fruits" in my title to "animals."

By now, I've been living on my own for about 2 years. I just stopped by the nearby WholeFoods to pick up some soy products, soy milk, and tofu. While exiting the front door, I saw the usual large crates of large fruits, organic cantaloupes and seedless watermelons, near the entrance.


Suddenly, for whatever reasons, they're not even my favorite fruits, I started missing living with my family, where large fruits can be purchased any time because there were 4 sets of GI systems :)

Perfume

Everyone knows the function of perfume. I just realize that often meats taste nicer with sweet and aromatic compliments such as honey and cranberry. Can we say honey and cranberry are "perfume" to cover up the scent of meats?

Coin Operated

As an apartment inhabitant, I frequented the basement for its washing/drying machines. When I deposited coins into the washing machine, I made sure I counted the right numbers of coins. It, like a typical machine, was programmed to start only when sufficient coins were deposited. One time, despite my years of education, I gave it one more coin accidentally. It did NOT refund me my money :(



I like to think that being a student, our required duty is like the load of clothes. We study in order to meet the required duty. Similar to the machines in my basement, our required duty would ONLY require the exact effort. I'm not sure if we were to put forth extra effort, those extra effort can be rewarded with interest to be used later...
