Long time no Update!


:(

...

I'm sorry that I haven't updated this blog in quite a while. It's mostly because of my horrible tendancy to procrastinate A LOT! Well >.< in order to make up for the few months of hiatus, I'll quickly make more posts that will fulfill your historical appetites! (Haha, funny, right? :D)
---------------------------------------------------------------
Hmm, well, let's talk about what's historically important today, on February 19th! Today is President's Day! Hurray! To commemorate this day, I shall post a video of the Animaniacs singing about all of the 43/44 presidents of the United States! (Grover Cleveland is only sung once, but actually was counted as the 22nd and 24th president).

I think I pretty much memorized the song. It really helps me for Reach for the Top!

Here are some wacky things I found out in the latest article on History.com - things that some presidents did on their birthdays!

George H.W. Bush skydiving
George H.W. Bush skydived on his 80th birthday.

Warren Harding got the White House as a birthday present!

FDR raises money against child disabilities/sicknesses during his birthday!

Here is the full link to the article below:

Also, considering that I'm too lazy to make 2 posts in one day, I'll give you guys a link to my own personal blog (please don't laugh at it!) 
My blog has a LOT of historical-related posts, so you can easily quench your historical appetite here! (Haha! I made the same joke again! :D)

So, see you next time ^-^!
