Winter Break

Winter break’s just around the corner!! (Finally)

And sometime before Sunday,  I’m finally going to go get my first DSLR! It’ll most probably be the Canon EOS450D aka Rebel XSI aka Kiss Kiss~ I’m very excited because I’ve been practically saving all semester, and this is the first time I’m buying something THIS expensive for myself. Using my own hard-earned money! (applause please)

So anyways, I’m definitely pysched.  The DSLR will come in handy during winter break that’s for sure. But before that I have exams……and presentations. And before all that! I need to………..

get some lunch.  lol. BYEE

French Version of “So This Is Love”

This is the French version of  “So This Is Love” , from Disney’s Cinderella.
I looove Disney and this is one of my favorite songs though it’s not as popular. I think the French version is much more romantic and dreamy than the original English version. I dunno, maybe it’s the language, maybe it’s the singer.

French Lyrics:

Hmmm~Hmmm~
C’est ça l’amour, hmm~ Le grand amour.
L’amour qui fait chanter la vie.
Là dans tes bras, hmm~
je sais déjà (je sais déjà) que mon bonheur est infini.
Mon coeur s’affole, hmm~ et je m’envole.
Je danse sous une pluie d’étoiles.
Tu es ce que j’attendais, tu es mon rêve fou.
hmm~ (hmm~) c’est ça l’amour! :]

The English version is clearer and more defined, while the French one is sweet and like a whisper. Below is the English version, for comparison.

Whistle down the wind

Amazing performance by Tina Arena.

Extraordinary animals in the womb

Yes, we’ve all seen the pictures of babies in wombs, but this is different. These are pictures of animal babies in wombs. National Geographic Channel is presenting a documentary with Channel 4 about the embryonic journey of 4 animals: the kangaroo, lemon shark, Emperor penguin, and the parasitic wasp. Click HERE for more information and pictures of animal embryos. It’s really awesome, I’m telling you. Go check it out.

Ctrl-Alt-Del Teacups

Saw this cool teacup set HERE. It’s actually made in Taiwan!! I haven’t seen any of these around though. Time for another shopping trip? Hahaha.

HDR Photographs of Abandoned Places

Decided to find more pics of abandoned building after a couple of friends said the Pod City ones were cool. HERE are 24 amazing HD photos of abandoned places.  And for further reading, a post on 8 abandoned theaters. The photos of the theaters rare really awesome. It really makes you wonder what happened to them. Once they were filled with excited people and they were majestic and popular but now they’re just sitting there.

Oh and btw, the pod city in Sanzhi in one of the previous posts isn’t going to be there for long. I hear its going to be torn down soon. >”<

WOW mouse

Wow! a WOW mouse!!
It’s supposed to be designed by Blizzard just for WOW, with 15 progrmmable buttons and 16 million illumination choices. 16 million illumination choices?!?! What does that mean? Like red+green+blue vs pink+yellow+blue? I don’t really get it. And how are you going to see all those lights when your hand will be covering the mouse anyway? I think this is wayyyy too high tech for me. HERE’s the entire story.

Progress Bars

Don’t you just love progress bars? I want one for boring classes.
