Everything will fall into place

My secret blog agent (Yes I have a secret blog agent.) has recommended that I value added my blog by adding random information in my post once in awhile. This way, my readers will actually learn something that is not what I did, what I think, what I think about what I did, what I did about what I think... you get the idea. So I decided, instead of scattering useless bits of information everywhere, why not just put them all in one post, so that this useless information can be found easily. Now you know where to find them, the day before GP prelims.

Ten things you need to know (about strawberries) before GP prelims:

People eat them in Asia. Not only Asians, I heard that Europeans eat them too. And pretty much the rest of the world, but I cannot guarantee you that. We Asians definitely eat strawberries though, not a doubt.
They can be pretty huge. And by pretty huge I mean the size of your fist. I have seen and eaten one that big, of course under the assumption that you have pretty small fists.
Strawberry flavored things taste nothing like them. Real strawberries sparkle in your mouth, and makes you feel like you can take on the world!
They are not made from straw. Those are straw berries.
You can eat the seeds too. There are like... a lot of seeds, so do not even try to remove them before eating. Rest assured, a strawberry tree will not grow on your head if you eat their seeds.
Haha, gotcha. Strawberries do not grow on trees, the grow on bushes! Or do they grow on vines? Perhaps Wikipedia will have the answer...
If you peel a strawberry in front of a mirror at midnight, you will not see your future husband in the reflection. You might see an idiot trying to peel a strawberry though. (If it is bright enough.)
They are one of the best fruits to serve with a chocolate fondue, right after bananas. The sparkle puts a tingle into each bite, and yet the strawberry does not have an overwhelming flavor such that the chocolate is overpowered.
Strawberries are red just like how apples are red;sometimes they are green .
The Strawberry Fair has nothing to do with strawberries. Really.

P.S. I do not really have a secret blog agent. No need to thank me when a strawberry question comes out for GP.
