They had played a better game than the Sens, beating them 6-2 in game five and taking the series 4-1 in the Stanley Cup final.  It's sad that no Canadian teams have won the cup since the late 90's.  Ottawa looked like a great team going into this round, but the Ducks  were just a better team as they put a lots of pressure on them in the get go and never look back.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 102);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 0);"&gt;Is any Canadians  team gotta win the Stanley cup soon before 2010?  The only three Canadian teams left that haven't a crack at the Stanley Cup final are the Vancouver Canucks, Montreal Canadiens, and the Toronto Maple Leafs. Will the cup finds it way back home next year?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 102);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 0);"&gt;I guess we will find out next fall when we start over again to see who will reign supreme in the quest for Lord Stanley.

Congratulation to Yul(left) for winning the millions! Ozzy played an awesome game as well, winning many ammunity challenges.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Summary of Yesterday Final Epsiode:&lt;br /&gt;* &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;Courtnesy: cbs.com/primetime/survivor 13/epsiode14&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 0);"&gt;Final Four Forever&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The Aitu Four return to camp, squealing and rejoicing. They savor the victorious moment for the small tribe that fought its way to this point of the game. A reflective and proud Yul states, "I am so glad that the winner of Survivor is going to be from a minority community. I think it speaks volumes, that often times the strongest teams are the ones that have a diversity of perspectives and backgrounds. And the fact that we were able to bond so tightly together and really kind of succeed under very long odds is a great morality tale."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 0);"&gt;Rites of Passage&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On Day 38, Ozzy wakes up early to watch the sunrise and reflect on his experience. Realizing the importance of his feat, Ozzy acknowledges that he must focus and win. Treemail arrives, informing the group that they will do the Rites of Passage ceremony together. Excited to share this moment with her friends and tribemates, Becky says, "Today's Treemail indicated that the Aitu Four are going to be able to actually go through the Rites of Passage together. It's pretty exciting because I think typically three people go through that by themselves. And for the Aitu Four to be able to remember everyone in this game, I think that's something really special for us to do." The tribemates paddle out to a beautiful hilltop location that overlooks the islands. They reflect upon the people that went through the experience of the game with them, igniting the torches of their fallen comrades on an altar.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 0);"&gt;Immunity Challenge: Self Destruction&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When the four remaining members of the Aitutonga tribe arrive at the final Immunity Challenge, they're ready to compete. Jeff Probst explains that the tribe members will be standing on a small steel perch situated in the water. Each perch has been individually proportioned to each tribe member's foot size, making the game as fair as possible. Every 15 minutes tribe members will remove a section of the perch, making it smaller and more difficult to stand on. The last piece of the perch will be a section that is less than half the size of a postcard. The last person left standing wins Immunity. Jeff then adds that this would earn the winner a guaranteed spot in the final three and, in a twist, the final three will go to the last Tribal Council.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The four remaining competitors stand on their individual perches, looking determined. After 15 minutes, the first section of the perch is removed. With no signs of struggle, 30 minutes pass and the second section of perch is removed. After 45 minutes, the third section is removed and Becky immediately loses her footing, falling into the water below. After an hour has passed, the three remaining competitors remove the fourth section and they are left standing on a very small section of the perch. Yul stays crouched down with a low center of gravity, while Sundra struggles as she stands with one foot completely on the perch and the other foot slightly resting on the perch. Going numb from his crouching position, Yul attempts to stand up and falls into the cold water below. After two and a half hours, both Sundra and Ozzy fight to keep their balance. Eventually, Sundra loses the battle and falls into the water, leaving Ozzy with Immunity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 0);"&gt;Fair Play&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ozzy, Yul, Becky and Sundra return to camp. Ozzy congratulates Sundra on her performance in the challenge. Safe from the impending vote, Ozzy and Yul discuss how the vote should go. Ozzy tells Yul that he thinks the fair way to proceed is to have a tiebreaker challenge. Then Yul and Becky converse under the shelter. Motivated by his close friendship with Becky, Yul offers her the idol.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Later, Ozzy tells Sundra and Becky that he feels the tiebreaker is the fair way to handle the remainder of the game. Sundra corners Yul, asking him if Becky has requested the idol from him. Yul denies it. But Yul later confides, "I've had to make so many compromises and broken so many promises. But the one thing I've always kind of stayed true to is my friendship with Becky. So to continue honoring that, I feel I might have to give her the idol. It's a tough, tough decision and I hope to God things just work out."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 0); font-weight: bold;"&gt;Tie Breaker Tribal&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Aitu Four arrive at Tribal Council stating that the vote will handled the way they have handled themselves in the game: fairly and honorably. The vote will end in a tie. Becky and Sundra must compete for a spot in the final three. Given only flint, steel, coconut husk and a small box of wood, they must build a fire big enough to burn through a rope, which will ring a bell. After thirty minutes of attempting to make fire, the jury starts to look bored, as both Sundra and Becky get nothing more than a spark. After an hour, the jury starts to yawn, Ozzy and Yul look horrified and Becky starts to sweat. Jeff announces that they will now use matches. After, many attempts and some small successes, the girls continue to fail.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After an hour and a half, an exasperated Probst comments that, "After 38 days out here, you should both know how to make fire." Then, Sundra runs out of matches and sits helplessly watching as Becky finally gets a fire big enough to burn through the rope and ring the bell. As Sundra leaves, she says, "The fact that I even made it this far has just ignited so many things in me. And I'm so proud and I gave it my all like I did everything else. And Becky, Yul, and Ozzy--one of you is going to win a million and you're takin' me out to dinner."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 0);"&gt;Final Feast&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On Day 39, the final three awaken early, toast coconuts and watch the sunrise together. Ozzy summons Yul to the beach as two native women paddle up in an outrigger with a final feast. Ozzy and Yul yell for Becky, who is on a distant section of the beach. The three sit and reflect on their game play and their strategy for appealing to the jurors.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yul states that friendships are worth more than a million dollars and his friendship with Becky is rare. Ozzy reflects, "I'm just hoping final Tribal goes really well. I'm hoping to get my point across. I've got a lot of pride and I feel like I'm representing Mexico. I've broken a lot of stereotypes. I'm a surfer up against two lawyers. Hopefully my actions, my intentions and everything I've done in this game speak for themselves. All I've got to do is hold it together one more night and finally this dream may take a step into reality."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 0);"&gt;Final Tribal&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As the final three take a seat at Tribal Council, the Jury assembles to ask the questions that will help them make their decision. After the opening statements, each Jury member has an opportunity to ask the final three players some questions about their game play. Yul emphasizes his influence over the overall game, bringing the Aitu tribe to the final four as promised. Becky believes that her strategy was a social game. Ozzy tells the jury that he was the underdog through the entire game; he embraced the game and played as hard as he could to get to this point.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After the questions were complete, the Jury cast their final votes.

It's too short to pulled back into a ponytail, but it was too long to let it hang down.  My bangs bothered me because it  was alway poking me in the eyes.I'd tried curling my bang in so it shouldn't poke into my eyes, but it just look dumb, and clipping it will look even dumber on me..I wanted to grow it long. But at this stage, I am just too impatient to wait any longer and be tortue like this.  So in my head, 'I am what the heck, I am going to give it a trim, it can't looks any worse than the time my lil's sis cut it'.  Quickly, I ran upstairs to my mom's room and  pulled out her haircutting scissor.  Then, I went downstair, grabbed some newspapers, and proceed to the bathroom.  I turned on the sink, wet my bang and spread some newspapers over the sink.  Grabbing the scissor, I  started trimming the right corner, and working my way to the left corner while looking into the mirror...The first trim was still too long, so I start trimming again. The next thing I knew, some excess hairs had gone into my left eyes..arrgh, I could feel the irritiating and burning sensation. I took my left contact len out, but still more hairs was left stuck in the left corner of eyes...I dabbed a wet tissue, and try to get it out., but it didn't work :o( By that time, my left eyes was very uncomfortable, it was twitching, and I had to close my eyelid to reduce the irritation ..Quickly, I ran to the kitchen, and grabbed a big bowl, and poured water in it (mom was giving me a weird look). Then, I sticked my whole face, and eyes into the water.  Damn, nothing happen..I didn't get it out.  My mom took pity on me, and eventually help me pulled out the hairs out of my eyes...The pains I have to suffer!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:lucida grande;font-size:85%;"  &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(153, 51, 153);font-family:lucida grande;font-size:100%;"  &gt;Lesson learned: "Go to a salon and get it professional cut or else suffer the consequence!"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/29452366-7526222663504826197?l=slim-oasis.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://slim-oasis.blogspot.com/feeds/7526222663504826197/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=29452366&amp;postID=7526222663504826197&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/29452366/posts/default/7526222663504826197'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/29452366/posts/default/7526222663504826197'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://slim-oasis.blogspot.com/2006/10/i-hate-my-bang.html' title='I hate my bang!'/><author><name>Slim</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16607062181632421631</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='17' height='32' src='http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a2/Lavender_pixie/doll8.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29452366.post-6031598640803128739</id><published>2006-10-09T22:26:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2006-10-10T19:58:13.366-06:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Thankgiving/hockey ranting'/><title type='text'>Happy Thankgiving!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://images.foodnetwork.com/webfood/images/entertaining/holidays/thanksgiving/tday2004/sliced_turkey.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 200px;" src="http://images.foodnetwork.com/webfood/images/entertaining/holidays/thanksgiving/tday2004/sliced_turkey.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 153, 0);font-family:verdana;font-size:100%;"  &gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;H&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;appy Canadian thankgiving!

Although their powerplay sucks, 0-15 in the two games, they had more scoring chances unlike thursday which they played stupid. They &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;moved the puck a lots better last night, and came close to scoring at least 4 powerplay goals if only they could tap it in in the second period. &lt;/span&gt;  &lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;On Monday night, they better score their first powerplay goal and get some more offences. Watching them win a close game was nerve wrecking. I like to see them win by more than two goals, at least that way I am not freaking out in the third period... Kipper can't steal all the games every night. Iginla's line better score more, especially like the new acquires Alex Tanguay. He's the second highest pay player in the team and has nothing to show yet except the one assist.

I find it so addicting! Before, when I first started in June, I didn't know anything about blogging or making your own template. But now, I've learned how to create a blog through tutorial's blog. So far, I learned how to change my background, border head, and implementing coding for a drop down link, adding a clock, and statcounter.   I didn't like the template selections from bloggers, so I tried to search for better one.  At one point, I liked the tropical dream template, but the stupid flowers that were suppose to appeared on the bottom left corner, and top right hand corner never did appeared. So I added my own border and side border.  The side border had butterflies going down, and the border had fairies.  At the moment, I like this one because its separate the sidebar from the body.  The other one I had was too close together that the writing inside the body section was overlapping the right sidebar.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/29452366-115777438030062604?l=slim-oasis.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://slim-oasis.blogspot.com/feeds/115777438030062604/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=29452366&amp;postID=115777438030062604&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/29452366/posts/default/115777438030062604'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/29452366/posts/default/115777438030062604'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://slim-oasis.blogspot.com/2006/09/learning-how-to-create-template.html' title='Learning how to create a template'/><author><name>Slim</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16607062181632421631</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='17' height='32' src='http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a2/Lavender_pixie/doll8.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29452366.post-115760951370708119</id><published>2006-09-06T23:54:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2006-09-09T23:44:32.383-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Men are like....</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;Hehe, my friend sent me this through email.

On saturday, I went to Prairie Winds tennis court to played tennis with my friend.  The first half of the hour, we just practiced hitting the tennis ball against this board that they'd mounted to the back of the tennis court's fence.  I kept hitting it too high, and it sailed over to the tennis court where a bunch of guys were playing.  One of the guys threw the ball over the fence so I didn't have to worry about walking around and retrieving it. Eh, they didn't look too mad that I kept hitting it over.  I did apologized.  After practicing hitting against the board for some time, we went into the tennis court and played.  Neither of us were really good, we didn'&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 102);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 51, 51);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;t establish a consistent hitting rthymn.  I only counted 5 times that we had hit it back and worth consecutively.  We still need more practices in order to be as good as the guys playing on either sides of us.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 102);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 51, 51);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;Afterward, we went to Sunridge Mall to grabbed some KFC to eat and went shopping after. Hmm, I love KFC chickens, and their hot wings. We wandered around the mall, but I couldn't find anything to buy :o(  I couldn't find anything I like.  When I tried on some of the shirts that I did like, it didn't look flattening on me...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 102);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 51, 51);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;Sund&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 102);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 51, 51);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;ay-  What did I do on Sunday???

They did awesome compared to Canada (aww, maybe next year for Canada :)=&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 102);"&gt;Saturday- &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 102, 204);"&gt;Two  of my friends and I went to checked out the finale firework at 9:00pm.  It was pretty nice watching it from the inside of Ellison Park rather than from the outside. Last year, I had to work in the evening so I was unable to attended.  The firework was cool, I especially like the horizontal waterfall firework..that was awesome. The waterfall seems to last forever, but technically it was more like 2 minutes.  We sat on a grassy slope with everyone else overlooking the lake, listening to the music as one after another firework went up into the sky.  The firework last about 45minutes.  Traffic wasn't bad compared to the last three years.  I think it helped that there was more police regulating the traffic flow, and that there was two additional lanes needed going both way, so that traffic doesn't get backup.  The first two years traffic was horrific, I didn't get home until two hours after the firework was done...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 102);"&gt;Sunday&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 102, 204);"&gt;I went to celebrated my frien&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 102, 204);"&gt;d's 25th birthday. At 1pm, everyone meet up, and drove to Pebble Beach for some fun in the sun, playing miniature golf.  There was quite abit of people there.  Half of the people were practicing their golf swing on one side of the course, and the another half were playing miniature golf.  The miniature golf had 18 golf courses section.  We had to followed the order of the sequence.  We were behind this slow group.  Half the time, we ended up sitting on the bench, talking, and waiting for 5-7minutes for them to finished so we can go.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 102, 204);"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 102, 204);"&gt;We were there for about at an hour.  It was 3:05pm when we finished.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 102, 204);"&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 102, 204);"&gt;After, we went to DQ for some blizzard, and dipped ice cream cone...I like the dipped chocolate on the ice cream, especially when it's hard and crunchy...  Around 6pm, we went for dinner at Montana.  There seem to be lots of people there having their birthday.  One of the embarassing birthday ritual there is that, the waitresses or waiters hit bring a big elk horn shaped hat for you to wear on the head.  They would bring a slice of cake with candle, and then ring a bell to get everyone attention, and tell everyone that someone (name) has a birthday, and became to serenade you with a birthday song while putting a big, elk horn on your head.  We were planning on letting the waitress that it was Helda's birthday...hehe, but she threatened us, so we didn't.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.lolitafiles.com/uploaded_images/SOAP-759703.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px;" src="http://www.lolitafiles.com/uploaded_images/SOAP-759703.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 255);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 102);"&gt;Once dinner was done, we sat around restaurant benches just to let our food digest, and talk.  Around 7:05, we went to Sunridge Spectrum to catch Snakes on the Plane.  Eh, I didnt realize that every part of a person's anatomy were bitten by the snakes.  It was funny.  Before going, I thought the movie was&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 102);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 102, 204);"&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 102);"&gt;pretty lame, but it was pretty amusing to watch, even though the plot was kinda lacking.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 102);"&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/29452366-115680710948171776?l=slim-oasis.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://slim-oasis.blogspot.com/feeds/115680710948171776/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=29452366&amp;postID=115680710948171776&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/29452366/posts/default/115680710948171776'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/29452366/posts/default/115680710948171776'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://slim-oasis.blogspot.com/2006/08/weekend-summary.html' title='Weekend Summary'/><author><name>Slim</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16607062181632421631</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='17' height='32' src='http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a2/Lavender_pixie/doll8.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29452366.post-115656439583366642</id><published>2006-08-25T21:47:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2006-08-25T22:45:24.026-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Weekend Plan</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: justify; color: rgb(255, 102, 102);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(153, 153, 255);"&gt;I am going to be watching the finale firework with my friends tommorrow.

I haven't been given the opportunity to check out any of the fireworks so far. Tuesday was Canada, but I haven't heard if we did great or not.

I can't believe you got me addicted to it! :oP Don't worry, this is just a temporary thing before something else hold my interest. Gambling is bad! hehe, that is why I stay away from Casino. Playing with your friends once in awhile is fine..but at least you only lose $5 out of your pocket rather then god know what in the Casino!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;Okay, I need to learn some tips and rules of playing poker. Hehe, I didn't realize I would be so addicted to it. Now, I understand why people play it, but why must the people play it for money, and not just for the fun of it?? Ever since I played with my sister and her friends two times, I have been hooked. I need to familarize myself with the ranking of the hands...For some reason, I still confused with the cards ranking, and all the rules... It's a good thing I have the &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 102); font-weight: bold;"&gt;World Series of Poker Rules and Tips, &lt;/span&gt;a small manual booklet, that comes with the poker chips to help me out.

There is nothing more frustrating than getting burned by someone who should have folded but was given a free ride.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);"&gt;2. If you are dealt low card of different suits that are unconnected, fold the hand unless it is very       cheap to stay in.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;3. Don't get too excited&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);"&gt;if you have a good hand using cards in the flop. Remember that there are     probably other good hands using those same cards.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);"&gt;4. If you are &lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 204, 0);"&gt;dealth a low pair&lt;/span&gt;, be careful.  &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;"&gt;Fold&lt;/span&gt; the hand unless it is very cheap to stay in.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);"&gt;5.&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 102);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;"&gt;Bet&lt;/span&gt; if the flop is unpromising&lt;/span&gt; and &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 102);"&gt;you have the &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;"&gt;ace&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;.  Be careful, however, if someone raises.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);"&gt;6. &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 102);"&gt;Watch for &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;straight&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;and &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 102); font-weight: bold;"&gt;flush&lt;/span&gt; possibilites.  The use of community cards make these hands         more frequent.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);"&gt;7. Consider all the possibilites of your hand, but don't waste time and money on long shots.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);"&gt;8. Learn to spot the&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 153, 0); font-weight: bold;"&gt; signs of bluffing&lt;/span&gt;.  A change in a player's demeanor usually indicates a             bluff.  &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;Be careful though, good players will put on an act to throw you off.&lt;/span&gt;  Learn to do the same     yourself.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);"&gt;9. &lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 204, 0);"&gt;Early in the game&lt;/span&gt;, &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 102); font-style: italic;"&gt;getting caught on a &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;bluff &lt;/span&gt;is not necessarily bad&lt;/span&gt;. This can put in the minds of the other players that you are a bluffer. They will continue to call with losing hands, just to avoid being suckered.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);"&gt;10. &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 102);"&gt;Watch the other players&lt;/span&gt;, even if you are out of the hand.  Look for clues as to the strength of         their hands and their propensity to bluff.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);"&gt;11. &lt;span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 102, 0);"&gt;Don't fall into patterns of &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;betting&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;.  Make occasional outrageous plays.  This will confuse               your opponents.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);"&gt;12.  &lt;span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;Don't get too optimistic on a winning streak.&lt;/span&gt;  Reckless betting can cause your winnings to            evaporate quickly.  :o(&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/29452366-115620430756237176?l=slim-oasis.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://slim-oasis.blogspot.com/feeds/115620430756237176/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=29452366&amp;postID=115620430756237176&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/29452366/posts/default/115620430756237176'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/29452366/posts/default/115620430756237176'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://slim-oasis.blogspot.com/2006/08/poker-playing-texas-hold-em.html' title='Poker-  Playing Texas Hold &apos;Em'/><author><name>Slim</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16607062181632421631</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='17' height='32' src='http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a2/Lavender_pixie/doll8.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29452366.post-115579353530179535</id><published>2006-08-16T23:29:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2006-08-20T23:19:36.710-06:00</updated><title type='text'>So You Think You Can Dance Finale!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6856/3138/1600/03_bschwimmer_main.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6856/3138/320/03_bschwimmer_main.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0);font-family:lucida grande;" &gt;Benji &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 0, 153);font-family:lucida grande;" &gt;        &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div  style="text-align: justify; color: rgb(51, 102, 255);font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 0, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 102);font-size:180%;" &gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;T&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;onite wa&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;s the finale of the show.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);font-family:trebuchet ms;" &gt;C&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);font-family:lucida grande;" &gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 0, 153);"&gt;ongratulation&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);font-family:lucida grande;" &gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 0, 153);"&gt; to Benji!!!

Next time my friends ask me to go, I will have to put my foot down and say "no." So far, all the horror and glory movies that I'd seen are dumb. I haven't seen any that is "actually" scary. The last one was so long ago, "Sixth Sense." Now, the scary movies I watch are dumb and unrealistic. The sound effect, and props are not scary at all. "Pulse," the movie that just came out last friday sucks! I didn't particularly enjoyed it, the "ghost" was not even scary, and have me rolling my eyes in most of the scenes. I didn't like how it ended, seem abit abrupt. What a waste of my money, and leave me unsatisfied! Every scary movies seems to followed almost the same patterns, not really original! So, I am going to stick to my action and comedy movies which I thinkl is so much better.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 102);"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Step Up&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;Sigh...thought this movie would be good, but the acting is cheesy &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6856/3138/1600/step_up.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6856/3138/320/step_up.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;and bad. If you plan to watch this movie, the only good thing about it is the dancing part, and their music. Other than that, don't watch it at all! Tanning Tatum was bad in this movie, well at least his acting skill was. He was lots better in She's a Man. I think he should just stick to romantic comedy :-}&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/29452366-115561960825935993?l=slim-oasis.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://slim-oasis.blogspot.com/feeds/115561960825935993/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=29452366&amp;postID=115561960825935993&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/29452366/posts/default/115561960825935993'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/29452366/posts/default/115561960825935993'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://slim-oasis.blogspot.com/2006/08/horror-movielamestupid.html' title='Horror movie=lame=stupid'/><author><name>Slim</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16607062181632421631</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='17' height='32' src='http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a2/Lavender_pixie/doll8.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29452366.post-115543484556109820</id><published>2006-08-12T19:26:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2006-08-13T00:34:36.986-06:00</updated><title type='text'>August 21- Season 2 premiere of Prison Break</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6856/3138/1600/050824_prisonbreak_vmed.widec.4.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6856/3138/320/050824_prisonbreak_vmed.widec.4.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 51, 255);"&gt;Any Prison Break show fans out there?

I guess I had it coming since I was too lazy to go to an actual hair salon.  Eh, I don't know what I was thinking letting my mom cut my hair, even though she'd haircutting experience in her younger day. She didn't listen to a word I said.  I told her to cut 3inches off, and give me alittle layers...snip, snip** inches by inches my hairs got shorter.  My hairs used to be halfway down by back. Now, it's shoulder length :o(   Not only was it short to my dislike, but I didn't like how she layers it.  My top half of my hairs was thick, and voluminous, and the longer half just hang there..My bangs was weird, it was uneven length.  I had to get it trimmed because it &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;was getting too long, and was always getting into my eyes. Eh, I still don't like  my haircut really much.  When I walked into the bathroom and saw my haircut, I was pretty vocal voicing my dislike..Oh well, it's my fault that I got myself into this predicament.  The good sides to this is that my hairs grow back  really fast, another 2 months it will be longer.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;Eh, never get your sister to cut your bang!  You think I would've learn from that  past mistake, but no!  That was like about three months ago when I got my sister to cut it.  My bangs was really bugging me, it was tooooo long and it hurts my eyes because it was alway poking into it.. I hate it when my bang is too short to pulled back, but too long to leave it as it is. I didn't want to clip it to the side because it would look dumb on me.  For some reason, I didn't wa&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 102, 255);"&gt;nt to cut my own bang..maybe I should have instead of her.  She cut it too short.. She blamed it on my not sitting straight, and having my head down..sure sure. It was so high up on my foreword.  Eh, the next day when I went to work,  the co-worker I was working that day with laughed.  I was so embarassed. What can I do, but joined her and explained to her how it came about.  Too bad I couldn't wear a cap, not allow though.  I guess I had that coming too, my fault really.

They left Calgary 12 days ago and will be back in early September. So far, she seems to be having a great time there. Pretty soon, she and her family are heading to Bangok. Sounds like fun. The first day she got there, she and her family went for the authentic sate beef pho..hmm, noodle..I wonder how it taste, better or not than Calgary? Eh, I told her to take a picture of it for me.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(51,153,153)"&gt;Before she left, she make her mom took her female friends' measurement for the Ao dai.

Eh, I'm not even Vietnamese, but she insisted. So, I guess I just go along with it. Will I eventually wear it, whose know? She's even going to make a guy style's Ao dai for her boyfriend even though he's white. Lol, it was so funny when she made her mom took &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6856/3138/1600/actwh56.11.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; CURSOR: pointer" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6856/3138/320/actwh56.11.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;the measurement for him with all the girls watching, and listening.

My mom answered the phone, and thought she said my "friend" instead of "fence" so she handed the phone over to me. I picked up the phone, and said hi. Whoa! What a wacko, catty woman she was! With lot of attitude, she said, "GET YOUR F****** CAT OUT OF MY FENCE!" I am like, "Okay, I am sorry, but why should I go picked up 'my cat' when I don't own one?" She said nothing, no apology or anything.. I could still hear static..I added, "So, what your address anyway so I can picked up 'my cat'?"

Less than a minute in, she caught her trout.  This was her second trouts she caught in less than a week span.  Well done, lil' sis, you're a good fisherwoman!!! I sure suck at casting the fishing rod line into the water. With my poor attempt, no wonder I didn't catch anything.  Why can't I be good at something?  Sighh......About two hour later, after we couldn't catch any more fishes, we went home.  Mom helped us clean the fish, and I fried it in a pan for us to eat.  The fish taste alright, kinda bland, and abit dry though.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;*~~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Four more days until Canada's Day!

It's so small, fluffy, and soft looking. Who wouldn't want a puppy as adorable as that?? If only my sister and I can have one. My parent won't let us have any animals in the house. She's afraid the dog will messed up the house, and that we'll neglect our responsibilities. We used to have my dad's attacking fishes, but that doesn't count as a pet. Having a puppy as cute as him would be big responsibility. All of us work, so we won't be able to take care of it like we wanted to...There are the task of training, and walking your dog. Also, you have to take it to see a vet, feeding, playing, and so forth. It is pretty much like taking care of a a baby...hehe, I just want to play with the puppy and hold it.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 102, 204);"&gt;I wonder what type of puppy it is in the pictures?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/29452366-115100350918161323?l=slim-oasis.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://slim-oasis.blogspot.com/feeds/115100350918161323/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=29452366&amp;postID=115100350918161323&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/29452366/posts/default/115100350918161323'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/29452366/posts/default/115100350918161323'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://slim-oasis.blogspot.com/2006/06/if-only-my-sister-and-i-could-havea.html' title='If only my sister and I could have...a puppy!'/><author><name>Slim</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16607062181632421631</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='17' height='32' src='http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a2/Lavender_pixie/doll8.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29452366.post-115086790044650932</id><published>2006-06-20T22:52:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2006-06-21T00:34:17.993-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Carolina Hurricanes, Stanley Cup Champion!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6856/3138/1600/061906EDM_1024.3.jpg"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px 10px 10px 0px; float: left;" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6856/3138/320/061906EDM_1024.2.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(153, 153, 255);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6856/3138/1600/williams_staal_celebrate_goal_194x245.4.jpg"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Carolina celebrated as they got an empty net goal with a minute left to killed Edmonton's hope of Lord Stanley.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6856/3138/1600/weight_hoists_cup_194x255.1.jpg"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div align="right"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="right"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;img style="" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6856/3138/320/williams_staal_celebrate_goal_194x245.4.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;William jumped up in joy and triumph&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;with &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Staal to celebrated their first Stanley Cup in&lt;/span&gt; Carolina. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6856/3138/1600/weight_hoists_cup_194x255.1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="width: 185px; height: 229px;" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6856/3138/320/weight_hoists_cup_194x255.0.jpg" border="0" height="187" width="194" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Bittersweet, Ex-Oiler Doug Weights beat his old team and get his hands on the Cup.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 153, 153);"&gt;It's official, The &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;Carolina Hurricanes&lt;/span&gt; is the 2006 Stanley Cup Champion! Edmonton went in defeat 3-1 to Carolina last night, and goes home empty-handed. This is the second times in a row that an Eastern Conference team had defeat a Western Conference team. With Edmonton's lost, Calgarians will not have to endure bragging rights from the Edmonton fans (I am glad about that!) If they had won, we wouldn't be able to contain them. I have to give the Oilers some credits, they played pretty good. They fought back, and made a series out of it when they were down 3-1, and tied it and take it to game 7. It was abit sad to see them lose; seeing their downcast, and teary eyes expression so like the Calgary Flames two years ago. The last time the Cup was in Canadian's soil was back in 1993 when the Montreal Canadien had won. With any luck, next year would be the year to erase this setback, and to brings the Cup back to Canadian soils where it belongs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(153, 153, 255);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/29452366-115086790044650932?l=slim-oasis.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://slim-oasis.blogspot.com/feeds/115086790044650932/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=29452366&amp;postID=115086790044650932&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/29452366/posts/default/115086790044650932'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/29452366/posts/default/115086790044650932'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://slim-oasis.blogspot.com/2006/06/carolina-hurricanes-stanley-cup.html' title='Carolina Hurricanes, Stanley Cup Champion!'/><author><name>Slim</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16607062181632421631</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='17' height='32' src='http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a2/Lavender_pixie/doll8.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29452366.post-115083416423261045</id><published>2006-06-20T14:04:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2006-06-20T14:19:33.670-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Riddle of the Day:</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Question: &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 271px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" height="302" alt="" src="http://www.cartoonstock.com/lowres/rte0005l.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#339999;"&gt;"A bus driver was heading down a street in Colorado.

The story is about two people who live in the same lake house but at different time. They begins to correspond to each other through the mailbox. She lives 2 years into his future. Eh, am I making any sense?? If you wanted to check out this korean version, with english subtitle before the english version out in theatre June 16, please go to the youtube website. Type in the korean title: il mare.

I really like the song. I haven't finished this korean movie yet, but the girl cried way too much. I am glad there is english subtitle so I can understand what the heck they are saying. The movie is alright. At least it has a good ending. No one died from terminal illness. If you wanted to checked out the movie, go to youtube.com, and type in the name of movie. After, a list of chapters appears, and you can view all the chapters. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc66cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span

I found the two sketches above from google search engine when I was browsing for horse pictures. The artists who did those are really talented. I am so amazed by their abilities to capture the realism of it. I like the details, shading, and the expression of the horses. I love it! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(204,102,204)"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(204,102,204)"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-ALIGN: left" align="justify"&gt;&lt;a href="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a2/Lavender_pixie/horses.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a2/Lavender_pixie/horses.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(51,153,153);font-family:times new roman;" &gt;My horse fascination started when I was in elementary school. I believe I was in grade 5, and my teacher, Miss Weiss, told us we were going on a camping trip for a whole week. I remembered being so happy because it was my first trip away from home, and I was going to experience everything at the camp. The camp was called, "Camp Chief Hector." Rather than staying in a cabin, the students get to sleep in tepees. I thought it was pretty cool, because it felt so western, and backward...I had lots of fun there. I remembered we did lots of hiking, playing animal games, dodge ball outside, crafts, other sign up activities, lots of eating, and singing around the fireplace. I think being on a horse was my memorable moment because I remembered dropping the rein, and getting lost from my group. I almost didn't want to sign up for the riding lesson, but I got talk into by a friend. At the time, I rather learn about to ice skate, than ride a horse. The riding lesson was lots of fun. The horse that I was on was named Tina. She was a big, and midnight black color horse. I don't remember what breed of horse she was. The lady instructor showed us how to brush your horse properly, put the saddle on, mounted on your horse, and placed your feet in the stirrup. After, she showed us how to hold the reins, and direct your horse to turn, gallop, and stop the horse. When the lecture was done, we went off on a narrow trail. I was the last person in the line. I accidentally dropped the reins, and in the process I was left further behind in the group. I don't remember why I didn't called out...it was stupid of me. I didn't want to get off the horse, and had the horse ran off. So, I waited, and waited until somebody came by and passed picked up the rein for me. Eventually, I was able to find my way back to camp.
