Well, I was just informed of the following Video Games Concert!

I'm trying to get tickets to go! Man, this should be sooo exciting! A live Video Game Symphony Concert!

Check for a location near you.

People in Austin, it's coming your way as well! Don't Miss it!

Well, a week ago I bought a little Bonzai started kit.

It brings a vase, the proper soil, some decorations and Hyssop seeds.

I prepared the things last week, hoping that I will be able to nurture my Bonzai tree.

So, I realized on Monday when I came in, that the soil had dried up quite a bit. I was like, oh no! I killed it! I quickly watered it and have been keeping the soil moist this past week.

This morning I checked it, and there was nothing there.

I decided to water it right now and guess what!!! A little leaf just popped out of the soil!!!!!!!!!

Wow! I am so EXCITED! I mean, it's actually growing. I am raising a little Bonzai tree! Oh, I'm such a proud mother!

YAY!!! 

I have just been introduced to a BEAUTIFUL song.

All I Ask of You from Phantom of the Opera. Lyrics can be found here.

One of the original cast members is my very dear role model Sarah Brightman.

Guys, if you want to be romantic, ask your girl to dance with you this song.

It has quickly become one of my favorites. So much love and passion.

Wow....How I wish somebody would sing this to me...

Somebody just sent me this link: http://files.bungie.org/50sfilm.wmv

Very funny...especially if you are a Halo fan.

Enjoy!

A friend of mine sent me the following link. I think it is actually funny song. People have too much free time on their hands. Enjoy!

Warning: You will probably not get it unless you are familiar with software terms.

So, I was chilling at work yesterday with some co-workers when one of them asks me: "Ana, where is your iPod?" I answered: "In the office". He respoinds: "Ana, it's not natural to see you without it, go and get it!"

I was warned that this would happen. I was warned that iPods become part of you; an extension if you will. I was like: "Yeah right...that's to freaky." But alas, I must fear it's true.

Over the weekend, my iPod finally went into a coma. It had been having some bad times. Jumping songs (that are perfectly fine in my PC), taking a very very painfully long time to start a song, making weird noises...The last thing it did, about 48 hours before it finally died was that it mixed two songs but I was only playing one of them (just one of them was displayed) and no...it was not a remix. That was REALLY freaky. The iPod doing it's own remixing...Makes you wonder about AI doesn't it.

Well, it finally died. So I took it to the Apple Store. After some time, I was attended by this cute guy and I was given the bad news that my iPod died. The hard drive failed. So, they gave me a new one.  

I was really sad and empty though during the time that my iPod had died. I was going for walks and no music was coming in my ears. Ouh...It's sad to think that not even Apple products can stand the wrath of my staticness. But, thankfully, everything worked out and now I'm back on track.

I was searching for the description of a process through the net and I found this page.

A very incitive page on the different process that you can find on your machine. It even tells you which processes are viruses!

Very useful page! Check it out!

The guy in this video has some mad skillz.

I don't know who you are, but pretty impressive!

About 2 weeks ago, I was having a nightly chat with a few friends of mine. One of the topics discussed was that of the Crop Circles - the mysterious geomatrical formations made on crops throughout the world.

Well, it just so happens that I turned on the TV and what program is on? A program on TLC about Crop Circles. I must say, they are VERY impressive. Check out this site to see a lot of impressive photos.

One of the images that has impressed me the most was this formation of about 75 circles, with some circles being almost up to 75 feet in diameter.

Although, you see something like this formation and DEFINITELY that one has to be a hoax.

I must say, whoever is really making these, are getting VERY good at them. Just compare the ones from the early 1990's to the ones in the early 2000s. You can definitely notice the improvement.

Will this mystery ever be solved?

So, yesterday I bought some 16 songs from iTunes. I was really excited. Getting them into my iPod, being able to listen to them anytime I want.

But, there was this one song, that I knew I liked a lot, but I just couldn't remember ANYTHING about it. I knew that if I stopped thinking about it, it would just appear. Well, it wasn't 'till this morning that I was able to remember something.

Hehehehe, all I remembered was "Hhmm-hmm-hmmm". Hehehehe, and obsiously the intro tune. But it was driving me nuts...I just couldn't get past that humming.

Then I remembered this episode from Married with Children (that's right, I'm getting old, so what?). In that episode, Al Bundy was trying to get this song that all he remembered about it was "Hhmm himmmm". Hehehehe, they went to this music store where there was this guy that you can give him phrases like that and he knew them. When Al went to him, the guy wasn't able to recognize the song. Al was all disappointed and sad, when suddenly, the tune starts playing in the music store. He gets all excited and says:"Peg (does a little dance) that's my song" and he rushed over to the guy and said I want that song. Afterwards, they get home and Al puts the LP on top of the coffee table. Cristina Applegate and her show boyfriend (which is played by the actor who plays Joey in Friends) get to the house and sit on the couch. I can't quite remember what the exact dialog was, but I know that "Joey" says: "I have a feeling that your dad and I are going to become great friends". At this, he puts his feet up on the coffee table and breaks the LP of the song that Al bought. Hehehehehe, the episode finishes there.

Hehehehe, I can't believe I remember all of that from that one episode. Anyways, I felt like Al Bundy that I couldn't get the name of that tune. Eventually I remembered the lyrics but have not been able to find it on the web.

Do you know the name of this song?

Hey baby, can I come and talk to you, about my feelings, and the love I have for you. And my heart, my heart I give it too, can't you see? And I'm sure you'll believe. Without love, there's no way I could be. Without you, deep in my heart you'll see. All my loving, I'm giving it all to you and I promise to put heart through and through. You, what you trying to do to me? I need you baby and I'm living in extasi. Hhhmmm-hhmm-hmmm  

---------------------------------------

Update: I knew that if I listened to C 89.5 long enough, that they would play the song. How could I have forgotten?? The artist is Sin Plomo and the title is It's You. Awesome song!

Well, I was surfin through the web when I came upon this page: The Chrono Cross Hate Page.

Up to now, all I have heard about Chrono Cross were good things. Oh! It's a great RPG, etc, etc, etc.

But, I start to reflect, is it really that disappointing? I must say, I have started it at least three times, and I have stopped. I did play and finished Chrono Trigger. Definitely, one of the best RPGs ever made. I must say, I do agree in some things to what the page says about Chrono Cross...but in overall, I think if it was not mentioned that it was the sequel to Chrono Trigger, then I think it is a good RPG by itself.

What do you think?

Today, I feel like singing Shania Twain's song: Man! I feel like a woman.

I woke up today having this great sense of being a woman. I know that the feeling initiated when I bought a new purse yesterday. For over a year I have been looking for a white purse that matches a pair of white sandals that I have.

That's right guys, a year looking for a purse (although I wasn't actively going to the mall each weekend looking for one). I finally found one yesterday that I thought it suited me. So, because I have to show off my new purse, I had to wear my white sandals. And I thought, well being spring and all, I think I can try wearing a skirt instead of jeans...that way people will really notice my sandals.

I must say, clothes has a powerful influence on how you feel (or at least to me). Take yesterday for example. I was wearing my <GEEK> shirt (you can get one from Think Geek, and guys, there is one for you too). I even got to the point of quoting Star Wars! I was definitely in touch with my inner geek yesterday.

So today having a skirt and all, you know, you feel you have to dress up a little (wear the hair nicely, put on a little bit of make-up, etc.) You have to also sit properly and walk very feminine. All in all, it gives me this great sense of girlieness. I just can't be thankful enough that I am a woman today.

Hehehehe, my girlieness is taking so much over me today that I just couldn't help think that the little dog that appears in the Search window in Windows is so cute. I left a search that I did over night. And what do I see when I bring up the window today? The little dog is sleeping! That is soo cute. I took a snap shot for all those curious to see it. 

Man! I feel like a woman!
