empire -> monarchy

 

re imperial vs metric... imperial was what I grew up with, and in states its still very imperial there... here in Quebec, all metric... I still intuitively think in terms of imperial however mostly regarding feet and inches ...I think this is actually primarily from a foot being a "foot" ?

re poetry, Hooyaah, last few years or so I've come to have an appreciation for poetry...its not something ill go hunt for, and im not a writer of it, but I do like how little can say so much

I remember me and my friend having an argument about literary styles when we were younger and he said that "poetry is the most powerful way of conveying massive amounts of information at once because it utilizes symbolism instead of words?"

ballet -> capoeira angola

The ballet school my oldest visited did ballet, classic dances and capoeira. The capoeira training used a lot of elements already learned in the latin dancing lessons.
