Today I learned three things. 1) Durian flesh is yellow, not green. (Roughly one year from the day I learned that milo, despite its green packaging, is not in fact green.) 2) If a giant insect flies into my shirt I will jump up and down on my bed and scream like a little girl. 3) My computer speakers emit a loud squealing noise whenever its wire comes into contact with my skin.
