temple city

Temple City is a small city sandwiched between Arcadia , San Gabriel ,Rosemead and San Marino, you can literally walk from one end to the other in an hour.
There are three elementary schools : La Rosa , Cloverly and Longden. There is only one middle school and one highschool : Oak Ave and Temple City High School ,respectively.
TCHS is definitely overcrowded and like every other neighboring city , it's being overrun by Asians.
At TCHS, lunch is only 34 minutes, freshmen need to stop PDA'ing and it's overcrowded.
TCHS is part of the Rio Hondo League which consists of Blair ,South Pasadena, La Canada , Monrovia and San Marino. The Arcadia Apaches are supposedly our rivals, although they aren't even in our league. Probably a football thing , whatever.
Las Tunas Dr. ( the main street ) is overrun by bridal shops , which carries the myth that they used to be prostitution houses. true or not? no idea.
Temple City is also sometimes called "Temple Shitty".
However, Temple City isn't as bad as it could be. It could be better but no one will ever be satisfied.
"Yo,where you from dawG"
" Bridal Shop Central."

mormon temple

A very architecturally beautiful building both inside and out, built using faithful mormon's money. The atmosphere is similar to a library's. The temple is considered the holiest place on earth for mormons, and as God's house on earth. It is here that they perform "the ordinances of salvation" for both the dead and the living. The ordinances performed are the following:

1. Baptisms for the dead

2. Ordaining to the priesthood for men who died without receiving it

3. Confirmations for the dead, where a proxy is "confirmed" a member of the mormon church, and given the gift of the holy ghost

4. Washing and anointings for both the living and the dead

5. The endowment for both the living and the dead. Basically a "christianized" version of masonic ceremonies, modified by mormonism's founder Joseph Smith, who himself was a free mason.

6. Sealings (aka Eternal Marriage) for both the dead and the living

7. The second anointing. Most mormons don't even know about this ceremony, and as far as I know it's only performed at a certain few of the larger temples. It consists of two parts - one performed in the temple, and one performed by the married couple in their own home. They are sealed up unto heaven for their righteousness.

So, to sum everything up, temples are beautiful buildings, wherein strange symbolic rituals are performed to guarantee your salvation.

tempera tantrum

Refers to a noisy/voluminous outburst of frazzled-nerved emotion involving watercolors, either emanating from a creator/observer of a messy spill/soiling involving said paint, or the resulting preposterous canvas-creation (think, abstract art) when the "genius painter" supposedly experiences a "creative epiphany" and totally "goes wild" with his colors in an effort to supposedly illustrate his inspirations, emotions, Heavenly-based vision, etc.
Old-school art-critic: I can't believe that the TV auction actually sold that hideous tempera tantrum for several million dollars --- first of all, who in his right mind would even WANT that confusing monstrosity slapped up on his parlor-wall to stare at night and day, anyway?? And second, why should anyone want to actually BUY something like that, when it's nothing special and exhibits absolutely zero talent? Why, I'm no artist, but I could easily create something like that myself in under five minutes just by splashing some paint around and callin' it good! Zheeeeeesh....!!
