Yahoo, Lent is over. Did any of you give up anything? I gave up chocolate *dies* It was horrible. I almost didn't survive, but I made it. I mean right now I have three chocolate bars stacked up in my locker for the rest of this week, it's amazing lol.

Anyway, for those who don't know what Lent is it's when you give up something special to you for 40 days from Ash Wednesday till Palm Sunday. :)

Did I mention chocolate is really good?

I don't celebrate Lent but if I did, I'd probably give up cursing XD Or punching my little brother Kicker :lol:

Well, dunno bout you but here it ends sunday on easter. I gave up choclate and pop, and im going to keep not having either after lent is over because Ive adapted to it and i dont really care its just a better living style, and no i havent exchanged chocolate for other junk food and replace its sugar capacity lol

I gave up Lent for Lent a few years ago :D Best decision I ever made, all those people who give up their chocolate and whatnot and I can sit there and eat it in front of them to tempt them :P
Even back when my stupid mum forced religion upon me I don't think I gave up anything for Lent, just seems like a silly idea to me.

If I was Christian, I would have given up laughing at people who give up something for Lent. I'm sorry, but it's just so tempting when someone says, "I gave up all sweets, no sugar for forty days!" to say something like "Hee hee!"

I once gave up chocolate, but three days into Lent I realized I was eating a chocolate bar. I just don't remember these things. :P
