Fun, free, good for you!
I had to stop, I have things to do, but that was fun! I'll do it again!
1000 grains of rice....
ooh, you're fast
I'm here, and in the kitchen, and in the basement, and here ... I'm at mmmmm
380 grains of rice
I need to focus. Or finish the other things I'm doing.
How do you stop? It's addictive! Can you just quit and have the rice total to that point donated?
I thought it would stop at 1000, but it doesn't.....not bad for 5 minutes
Well, it's not a big score but the semi finals of the Rugby World Cup, France-England is going on..
You have now donated 1630 grains of rice.

This is going to be good for 'listening' time.

Every grain of rice counts ...
500 grains - will do it again later. some good words there.
3050. I'll post a pic if you dont believe me!
I'm at 2060, my vocab level is 38. Is the donation a running thing? Is there a 'send' button?
2610, 40! It is addictive!
fun, isn't it!
when it says you've donated 100 grains, or 1000 grains - that's what's already recorded in their system, so there aren't any extra steps for you to complete
I finally quit at 3330 grains.
another 1810 grains
I get up to level 47 every now and again, but my natural level seems to be 44

I must be obsessive/compulsive; I stuck with it to almost 5,000 grains last night. But I can't get over level 47 either. It's addictive!
