xDD March 17th? I have class. My professor's birthday is that day, so she says the whole world parties....for her that day. I'm not much of a party-goer, but I just usually wear green. [I wish I had some orange, but I don't. x3] This year I'm doing something special. Making a bulletin board for class with facts under shamrocks: [Facts are kind of simple, it is geared towards children, elementary ed. lol]

34 million United States residents are Irish.
Chicago dyes the Chicago River green on St. Patrick's Day.
The Irish flag is green, white and orange. The green symbolizes the people of the south, and orange, the people of the north. White represents the peace that brings them together as a nation.
The color green is commonly associated with Ireland, also known as “the Emerald Isle.”
Colonial New York City hosted the first official St. Patrick's Day parade in 1762.
The highest number of leaves found on a clover is 14!
Some American towns have “Irish” names: Shamrock Lakes, Indiana; Shamrock, Oklahoma; Shamrock, Texas; Dublin, California and Dublin, Ohio.
Legend says that each leaf of the clover means something: the first is for hope, the second for faith, the third for love and the fourth for luck.
One estimate suggests that there are about 10 000 regular three-leaf clovers for every lucky four-leaf clover.

♔ Thanks for all the posts Mia! Yay! I'm so happy! Lol! xD
I never knew Chicago died the river green. O.O Omg. O.O

I'm kinda pissed at my school's diversity club right now. . .
We're going to my friend's father's Japanese school to celebrate a Japanese holiday
no one in the club heard of, and yet for St. Patrick's Day - we're selling green drinks. . .
It's not fair, they could be teaching my American classmates how to celebrate the holiday the
Irish way, or something! I think I questioned my teacher's authority on that subject. . .
he doesn't smile at me anymore, lol! xD

But that's really cool Mia! xD

XD Ya it is. The bulletin board turned out really cute. x3

Most folks just associate it with heavy drinking and drunk people. -.-; XDD lol

♔ I always think it should be spent more religiously.
Maybe it's just me, but St. Patrick was a saint after all.
And Irish fought to remain in the religion Patrick had taught them.
I like to pray on this day.

Ya, when I was reading it was mostly religious context and I had to take the religion out of it and just put fun-facts and what not. (Public school x3) In fact, back in the day it said they closed pubs in Ireland on that day, so it must of been pretty religious. x3 At least from what I saw on my journeys of fact finding.
