So I found this website that is really cool. What it does is every question you get right it donates food to third world countries, and it is free. All it takes is a little bit of your time, plus it is fun when you challenge your friends and sees who gets the most right. Here is the link if you want to try: www.freerice.com/index.phpalso, you can change the subject at the top of the page if you want. Post how much you made, the subject you did, and see what everyone else did!

I know that site. it is fun. I played one day and donated over two thousand grains. I didn't notice that you could change the subject.. That's why it took me whole day to get that much rice, that english vocabulary test is tricky.

Yeah, it was fun. I think I donated about 4000 grains, in English Vocabulary, and Geography.

Now that I've checked it out, I can't stop playing! Especially since it goes to such a good cause.

I started using this site last year and I love it. It's my homepage, giving me an incentive to do at least one word a day. Plus, it's a guilt-free way to procrastinate, which is always good.

Is it cheating if I take language learning German as subject?

I like the language ones! I tried them and I got a lot right. Which means they're really, really easy -- I don't even know Spanish, German or Italian!
