No cheating!

I got to 36, then had a few...er...problems.

Why must you always deflate me?

I feel very virtuous - I think I must have donated 4000 grains of rice over the past 3 days - 3000 of that was today! (Well, when I got in from a looong day at school I needed to relax and unwind a bit so I thought I'd play a bit, and then I kind of couldn't stop!!!! .....
