"Lent...The 40 days of fasting and penitence between Ash Wednesday and Easter generally observed by Christians and Catholics to purify themselves."
-Lil Mike
With that said, I will now like to share with you all Joyce's new challenge for the next 40 days [including weekends]. I am neither Christian nor Catholic, but Buddhist by birth. Perhaps it was motivation by Cam, who's going through this. Anyways, Lil Mike, Big Mike, and I have decided to start our own version of this. For 40 days, we will not eat fast food and we will not cuss. -_-;;
1. No fast food what so ever. This includes an appetizers at any restaurant [including Applebee's]. That also means...no more snacking on egg rolls and crab puffs at work... ::sigh:: Ontop of all this, I will be on my strict work out in effort to tone my body.
2. In an effort to be more presentable, no more cussing all the time...it's just really not neccessary. This includes all uses and forms: in person, on the phone, online, anywhere, anytime...all the usual cuss words involved, including "eff you, bastard" and anything else that may be added later. "Do mah" is still acceptable however! =P <~Lil Mike says it best.
Shall either of these rules be broken by any of us, we are to put 50 cents into a jar, which at the end of the 40 days will be combined and split between us. The worse part of the punishment is we get our days pushed back another day for every infraction. So for now the ending date is April 4th.
random thoughts» So yeah, in the end, I will benefit....right?
