I stayed up late last night mending my costume for the Renaissance
dance performance later. I had a lot of fun re-hemming the hoop skirt
and reattaching ribbons and lace.

Funny. The more I procrastinate working on my reading paper, the more

Random Japanese sentence:

Ã£Â‚Â¸Ã£ÂƒÂ£Ã£ÂƒÂƒÃ£Â‚Â¯Ã£ÂÂ¯Ã¥Â®Â¶Ã£ÂÂ§Ã§ÂŒÂ«Ã£ÂÂ¨Ã£Â‚ÂªÃ£Â‚Â¦Ã£ÂƒÂ Ã£Â‚Â’Ã©Â£Â¼Ã£ÂÂ£Ã£ÂÂ¦Ã£ÂÂ„Ã£Â‚Â‹Ã£Â€Â‚ Jack keeps a cat and a parrot at home.
