Hi, there!,

Have you ever listened to this song "STRIP ME" by Natasha Bedingfield? I still remember her famous song "Unwritten". Well, thanks to the movie "Morning Glory", I could hear this ...

I hope you'll like it :) "Everyday I fight for all my future comings, ... like chasing rainbows,... and if you strip me, what would you find, I'm still the same, ... my heart is like a loudspeaker..."

Happy Saint Valentine's Day


Hi, Guys!,

Maybe most of you are celebrating Saint Valentine tomorrow, 14th Febr. It is a day to make your loved one feel really special and express how precious the person is for you. But in my humble opinion, everyday should be the right day to express these feelings, we can't waste time and chances.
So, as you well know, there ar
e many different possible ways to express your own loving feelings, such as chocolates, flowers, cards, diamonds??, ... but love can't be measured, in terms of love, the smallest thing given from the bottom of your heart, as a token of love, would be the best or enough for your Valentine.

Happy Saint Valentine's Day!

Groundhog Day


Hi, Guys!,
Last week, the Groundhog Day took place in USA and Canada. It's a very significant day since it is believed that if this little animal emerges from its burrow, and if it doesn't observe any shadow, Spring is coming soon, but on the other way around, the groundhog gets into the cave again and Spring will come within 6 weeks.

German settlers are thought to be the ones who brought this tradition of predicting future weather conditions based on animals. They used to observe hedgedhogs, but when they arrived in America, they replaced this animal for the more common American groundhog.

Now, would you like to watch the video?
