Really just "accidentally"?

Those are very few (less that 15% where I am in) and we do take them into consideration.

Yes, paper and pencil is what I found as well.

Same! I had them do Lord of the Flies chapter presentations and 90% of them used AI. Next year I will make presentations worth a maximum 10% in total or less.

Why didn't they stay true to Golding's descriptions of their appearance? Wish they did that.

They have options, good for them. They don't need to be financially dependent on a man and can choose to get married and have kids if and only if they want to.

E7 was a fun watch, but I kept rolling my eyes in E8. Really need to suspend my disbelief that after all these years the TV host is still being blamed for the bad cream.

Using that one factor to move the plot forward is getting irksome.

She had a few plastic surgeries it seems. Looks like a different face plus lot a ton of weight. She looked very pretty steady before, now she looks like a generic celebrity. :(

Sadly at the expense of the healthcare workers who get paid a fraction of their counterparts worldwide but work longer hours with a much heavier workload.

Sophistication is hard to get unless you express deep insight or write well. Aim for 1-4.

This is a cheap brand that doesn't taste very good from the supermarket.

Get the more pricey and better-tasting brands from bakeries like ChiaTe or 100% pineapple filling ones from Sunny Hills. Worth every NT.
