Day 37/1001: 540 Grains of Rice

Many friends of mine have shown me this "gaming" site called Free Rice.


I'm actually surprised it isn't advertised as much as it probably should be. When I first told my mom about my 101 in 1,001, she walked into my room with a pleased expression, "I made 400 grains of rice!" Every little bit counts.



In the past, I've collected hundreds of grains of "rice" towards this amazing project. But not in count to my own - I hope by the end of my 1,001 days, I will have collected 20,000 grains AT LEAST.




I had a few minutes and improved my 'English Vocabulary.' However, Free Rice has many more subjects to offer - I've also tested out locating countries on a map. Thanks to my Freshman year Geography course, it comes easy. The motivation? Knowledge, maintenance and progress towards curing world hunger!!!!

As for my math skills? 20, 000 - 540 = 19, 460 more grains to go!
