A DAY WITHOUT SUNSHINE IS LIKE, NIGHT.

ON THE OTHER HAND, YOU HAVE DIFFERENT FINGERS.

I JUST GOT LOST IN THOUGHT. IT WASN'T FAMILIAR TERRITORY.

HE WHO LAUGHS LAST, THINKS SLOWEST.

THE EARLY BIRD MAY GET THE WORM, BUT THE SECOND MOUSE GETS THE CHEESE.

SUPPORT BACTERIA. THEY'RE THE ONLY CULTURE SOME PEOPLE HAVE.

MONDAY IS AN AWFUL WAY TO SPEND 1/7 OF YOUR WEEK.

A CLEAR CONSCIENCE IS USUALLY THE SIGN OF A BAD MEMORY.

IF YOU THINK NOBODY CARES, TRY MISSING A COUPLE OF PAYMENTS.

IF EVERYTHING SEEMS TO BE GOING WELL, YOU HAVE OBVIOUSLY OVERLOOKED SOMETHING.

WHEN EVERYTHING IS COMING YOUR WAY, YOU'RE IN THE WRONG LANE.

WHY DO PSYCHICS HAVE TO ASK YOU FOR YOUR NAME?

INSIDE EVERY OLDER PERSON IS A YOUNGER PERSON WONDERING WHAT HAPPENED.
and remember... - IF THE WORLD DID NOT SUCK, WE WOULD ALL FALL OFF!!!!!

Hi Vips!!! Good morning/afternoon/evening/night? I would like to ask you something. Look at these pictures, they were all taken in the same place, and tell me: What do you think this stone looks like? Lau! Elg! Reet! dont cheat!! ;-) you already know the answer! lol

The thing is, this stone has this shape caused by erosion, but I grew up listening to this, so when I look at this picture (I was actually there on my holidays) I know what its supposed to look like, because thats what Ive been told! lol!!! So I want to listen to objective points of view! ;-)

So, tell me, what do you see?

Ok, ok, the last one isnt a good picture, but look at the mountains, dont they look great?? :-)

I leave you with one of my favourites U2 songs, Until the end of the world http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ejJdfkFjKCA

Hope you all have a great week!

Take care, catch you soon xxx

Hello vips! How are you today?

Im going to share with you the reason of this blog post: a dear friend of mine, asked me what a meerkat is (because a couple of weeks ago, I uploaded a picture of meerkats). So, I thought I could share, not only with him, but with all of you, some information about these animals, just in case you dont know them, of course!

So, here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meerkat you can read some "wikithingy" information about these animals.

And here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wkWs3HVww4I you can actually "listen" to the most famous meerkat on earth ;-), hope you enjoy it!!!!! :-D

Arent these animals great?? lol another link you will also love! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WBK0i83ip78 lol!!!

Have a nice rest of the week!!

Patricia xx

Question! :-)

Patricia_ — Mon, 06 Oct 2008 01:22:00 +0100

Hi Vips! Has this ever happened to you? Ive been trying to change my avatar, and I found that the avatar thumbnail differs from the avatar image! So, I can see myself in that little image that appears everytime I leave a shout, comment, etc, but, I see Bono in my profile image!! lol!

And, up there, instead of saying www.absolute...... it says "www2.absolute........"!!

Does anyone know how to solve this?

Its also a fact, that Ive been awake since 4 am, and tomorrow I go back to work, so, I think I should be going to bed now :-).

Goodnight, people, catch you soon xox

Happy Birthday Reet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good Morning! :-)

Patricia_ — Mon, 15 Sep 2008 11:09:57 +0100

Good morning, Vips! How are you? wow, I still see the VR star on the left and the AR thing on the right, not sure how to call this place! :-)

I would like to share with you a simple video I made - hey, dont worry! I dont appear in it! lol!! ;-) - I used a song I find relaxing and peaceful, with some of those amazing images you find on the web. I hope you find it as relaxing as I did, and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did while I was making the clip.

Oh! One thing! At the beginning, it was going to be only the images and music, I decided to add the words when I was about to finish it, so they dont necessarily match with the images.

I hope you like it!

Hi Vips!!! How are you today?

Next Sunday is Childrens Day (at least on this side of the world). I dont have children, but I do have a nephew and niece, and as every aunt, I spoil them a lot!!! lol (besides, Im the boy´s godmother) So, today I was walking from one place to another, trying to decide what to buy! and I think I´ll buy some Little People thing for the girl, but I really dont know what to buy for the boy! Suggestions please?? He is 6 years old (no Hot Wheels, no Power Rangers, please! he already has those things, and I hate them!! lol!!). Is it too boring to give him some dinosaur book? He is interested in dinosaurs, but I was thinking that maybe he will expect a toy or something like that...

Im really lost at this one! :-(

And, talking about kids, yesterday I was watching a DVD. It was about the last day of my nephew at the kindergarten (last year), and while they were showing pictures of the kids, they put the song "Beautiful that way", which I didnt remember. It was the spanish version. Here, Im posting both versions - spanish and english. Its a very simple song, with beautiful lyrics, from the movie "Life is beautiful" (I dont like the "lararararara" part, but what can I do, its a part of the song!!! lol)

english version:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CXHuwuwvjgM&feature=related

"Smile, without a reason why
Love, as if you were a child
Smile, no matter what they tell you
Don’t listen to a word they say
'Cause life is beautiful that way"

Spanish Version:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U1wmNtkw4bQ&feature=related

In the spanish version, there is a part that says something like this: "never stop dreaming, because one night, the sadness will leave without letting you know, and then, at last, you´ll find out how beautiful is to live".

Hope you like it xxxx

Take care Vips!! xxx
