Five Fun Facts of the Day

Last night I was reading an article and I thought I would share a few of the cool facts I learned. When a male penguin falls in love with female penguin, he searches the entire beach to find the perfect pebble to present to her. New Zealand will deny people residency visa’s if they too high of a BMI and there are cases where people have been rejected because of their weight. Whenever a pregnant women suffers from organ damage like heart attack, the fetus sends stem cells to the organ helping it to repair. It is illegal to climb trees in Oshawa, a town in Ontario, Canada. Brown eyes are blue underneath, and you can actually get a surgery to turn brown eyes blue. These types of articles are like brain food to me. They help get my mind from thinking of things happening in the world. Instead, think of fun things. Changes my attitude. I hope it does yours as well.

How lovely the story of the Penguins. I will surely not try a laser surgery to have blue eyes and anyway my eyes are not brown but green.

These are cools facts. That male penguin is cool indeed. I don't like to go to Oshawa. When I was a kid, I used to climb guava trees.

That's amazing about a foetus sending stem cells to a damaged organ. Who'd a thought?

I had blue eyes the first two weeks of my life, so I'm sure that one is true.

I love little facts like these, I'm proud to say that I knew most of these! The New Zealand one is a little disappointing, good thing I never thought to move there, visiting might be a little intimidating if that is the care haha I think brown eyes are so pretty, I feel bad for people who hate their brown eyes because they are "boring" but I think they are amazing.

Those are cute points. I did know about the fetus sharing stem cells to help to repair any of Mom's organs that get damaged. I know where Oshawa is, I've been thru it, and thankfully didn't have the urge to stop and climb a tree, I don't look good in prison stripes.
