Today I had the chance of running into the Tetrises yet again! And what an amazing species they are! Although they can be very fun and entertaining, they are also rather polite and collected at the same time. Especially when hitting the town and traveling around their environment to meet up with their friends.
After spending most of the evening with them, I have come to understand that today is a special day for them. It is the day that the paysans and other lower class people of their home country rebelled and created a revolution against the monarchy in 1789. It is a rather fascinating history, and if you wish to get the gist of it or refresh your mind, just copy and past this link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_revolution
I had a wonderful time with these people to the point of getting swooped up into the festivities. We got so excited that we sang their National Anthem in front of everyone at a local bar (the clip of this is below).
Other wise, I have little to tell you at this time other than that I am currently learning plenty on the local Maori culture thanks to my classes, however I am having a rather hard time deciding if I ought to learn the language or learn about their society. My thinking is that which ever I chose should be one in which I will do best, and then still tag along to the other just to learn a little more. So what would you think I would be best at? Writing papers on an unknown culture or learning a language for which I will also have to write a few papers here and there?
Until next time, this is W.W.A. Rhondiggity, signing out.

I think you should focus on the culture and also absorb as much of the Maori language as you can...they kind of FIT TOGETHER. And you are very smart Rhondiggity!
