Expertise

Well this week for my weekly blog I have been asked what I am an expert in. This took quite a bit of thinking, as last week I talked about my dance team and dance show, so I do not want to bore you by saying that I am an expert in dance; I mean I think you got that. I also have already said what my major is, but I am far from being an expert in chemistry. I thought about saying that I am an expert in skiing, but to be honest I doubt I could write three hundred words on how I am an expert skier (plus I mean I still fall every once in a while). So, I came up with something interesting. I am an expert on random, and mostly useless, facts.
But now I must prove it. I came up with some random facts that I know, that I doubt any of you know. For instance:
1. Did you know that there was a law made saying you could not fish off of Navy Pier? Now that might seem like a mediocre fact, but wait it gets better. There is also a law saying you cannot fish off of Navy Pier, off of a giraffe. Now that just means, somebody had to do it, for it to become illegal. Awesome.
2. Did you know that sharks will soon be in the Great Lakes? Bullhead sharks are swimming up the Mississippi river (adapting to fresh water of course) and will be in the Great Lakes within 5-10 years. Oh and by the way, Bullhead sharks are very violent.
3. Did you know that all the state schools in Illinois have a piece of our “castle”? There is a building on campus that looks like a castle, and if you go to all the state schools in Illinois (ISU,NIU, etc.) that they will make one large castle?
See, told ya.
