homeschoolmom Posted August 18, 2004 Share Posted August 18, 2004 [quote name='Carrie' date='Aug 18 2004, 03:56 PM'] am I wrong? for some reason I thought you'd said somewhere that you had been a 1st grade teacher before staying home and teaching your babies. If I am wrong, then I'm sorry for being wrong. [/quote] No, you're absolutely correct!!! (Gold star for you!) I was just shocked that anyone remembered!

VeraMaria Posted August 18, 2004 Share Posted August 18, 2004 LOL! I had actually never noticed different foreheads before...I never noticed "big" foreheads... Hmm...I get made fun of for being tall but "un palo" ("a stick", spanish expression for slender)...at leats I used to And for having "big green eyes", turns out they're "very expressive", people can tell wether I'm mad, happy, sad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] The master trivia of all trivia... What is the origin of the word "trivia"? The origin of the word trivia is a reference to public plazas in ancient cities where "three roads" would meet. Pedestrians, townsfolk, business owners and other would go out into the plaza to discuss random things and make small talk and basically tell each other about little, unimportant things...trivial things.

VeraMaria Posted August 18, 2004 Share Posted August 18, 2004 (edited) Hehe, it's funner to sketch big foreheads.... *from a person who took a face pencil sketching course, and wants to take an advanced one * Of course nothing beats full lips or big noses for fun in drawing...
