My So-Called Photo-Taking Skill
I always have a hard time coping with my mom's complaints when it comes to photo-taking thingy. Mom always says that my photo-taking skill is so horrible. No matter how much I try, I always end up swallowing all her complaints and blames. Sigh!
By the way, I just made it to the top 11 of a photo contest for the U.S Embassy. Even though I didn't get number 1, but still I was in the top 11 among the 200 something photos submitted. As for the last voting phase, I got number 10 (almost the last one among the top 11, but hey, it's still something, ok?) Or maybe if I really master this skill like my mom, maybe maybe maybe I'd crown it and get a laptop. -___- Ai yo!

Insomnia
I guess I'm aging because I start having insomnia too frequent these days. Well, it was pretty annoying at first, but now I think I've found my solution. How?
At first I tried reading my textbook and after awhile it worked like a magic. It took less than 15 minutes for me to fall asleep. Awesome!
Since my major involved 50% of business courses, I tend to have a business mindset, too. Time is money and 15 minutes worth a lot. So I came up with a better idea. I put my textbook under my pillow and tried to sleep. Can you believe it, it worked like a charm to me. This time I didn't have to waste 15 minutes anymore. I fell asleep straight away. ^-^
And guess what, I still haven't done and reviewed my assignments/lessons yet. You should know why... Haha -___-

Surprised!
On October last year, I blogged about one of my achievements. The post itself was a bit emotional, determined, and all. It was about how I won an English dictionary from the U.S Embassy's quiz on Facebook.
Yesterday someone from the embassy with the name, Craig, made a comment about that post. He kindly gave me another link for the new contest. This time is a photo contest. He then enclosed with (From, Your friends at the U.S. Embassy). This last sentence choked me. =) I am so happy that I now have friends from the U.S. Embassy. :) I can't believe that someone from the embassy would read it. I checked my Feedjit and it showed that the reader was from Virginia, U.S. So, I assumed that the embassy's server is located there. Hehe
I actually saw the announcement on Facebook about this new contest already. I even retweeted it in my Twitter account. However, I'm still surprised by his comment. I'm not going to question how they found my post and all, though, because I know how small the world is with this new technology, internet. I myself do that quite often, too. What important is that there are people who actually read my blog and that's more than enough to make my day more beautiful. :)
I have so many things to accomplish this month including this photo contest. I did a bit of brainstorming about it this afternoon, too. I'm going to finish one of my goals the latest by the day after tomorrow so that I can start focusing on this one. May God bless me! <3 Wohooo!!!
p.s. Craig, did you read this post, too? :)

At Home In Prison
My current Facebook status is "at home, in prison". The meaning behind this phrase is that I'm not allowed to go out whenever or wherever or with whomever as much as I want to. It is for the so-called security reason that my parents always tell me so. I've been living with this reason until I think I hate my own country now. So I basically just wanted to express my thought that being at home is the same thing as being in prison. But some of my friends took it otherwise. One of them commented, "oh my goodness...," another one added, "so where you want to stay?" After seeing their comments, I was like what? What are they thinking already? Haha
I originally thought that I wouldn't reply to any comments for this status because I was in a bad mood, but after seeing their comments, I know I must defense myself before something even worse than this happens. Here is what I wrote back in reply to their comments on my status: ''don't get me wrong...what i meant was...I'm not allowed to go out as much as I want when I'm home... at home in prison! not that I commit
any crime or anything illegal. Haha''
One of them already replied with "lol"... I hope the other one will return to my status and see my reply, otherwise I'll be a criminal in his eyes forever. Haha
I also do hope that none of my blog's mates think the same thing when they first read out the title of this post. However, I have omitted a comma between ''at home'' and ''in prison'' where I didn't do so for my Facebook's one, thinking that maybe it's a grammatical error. And if it isn't, then it must be the phrase itself that drives people's thinking to the wrong way. Hehe
p.s. I should be more careful with whatever I post from now on to avoid any possible confusion.

Internet
I have registered my mobile phone to use internet service sometimes ago and I really want to use it because I don't have to sit in front of my laptop and all. I can sleep, eat, sit, stand, or do whatever and still able to use internet whenever I want to. I can take photo and post it straight away to my Facebook and twitter accounts or here. BUT the problem is my house already has an internet connection and I don't want to waste more money on my mobile internet. BUT I'm so lazy to transfer my photos in my mobile phone to my laptop and all. When it comes to photo thingy, mobile phone is more convenient. When it comes to longer text, laptop is easier. Argh, what should I do?
Below is what I took with my HTC Wildfire. ^_^ I have installed tons of photo applications so far. Android OS is the best. Love it! iOS is good, too, but they don't offer you that many free apps as Android does. Hehe
p.s. I'm using home internet to blog this. >__<
