Turning a boy's room into a girl's room is really hard! I

My bro has moved out and i'm taking him room .. which originally was my room when he used to live abroad, then he came back and invaded my space.. now i'm getting my room back, the signs of invasion are clear in it. The room is full of ugly stuff and junk! junk everywhere .. me and my sis have managed to clean most of the junk and it took us few days! We found wonders in that room, bills that are 7 years old... a calender from 1996.. a laundry bag hidden behind the desk .. yes with clothes in it.

First thing i did was find place for my lovely trolls, grimlin and my starbucks bear...

then .. found a place for my monkey benders, acrobots, and candriod..

Video: Show us some great animation.

and who doesn't really?? oh my sister doesn't! but we had her checked up and she turned out to be an alien. And even though she says she doesn't like chocolate i always catch her eating it and she ends up saying " i'm just bored " .. just admit it woman! you like love chocolate too!

Yesterday i got this as a gift..

Its one big Hershey's Kiss .. its really cute and I don't think i would ever dare to eat it, i just wanna look at it but i know i'll end up eating it anyway.

When women around the world make sure their purses is loaded with things like a lipstick, mascara, "feminine products" or whatever.. i always make sure i got my chocolate!

Okay so its 3 things i dont leave without .. my wallet, my ipod, and my chocolate.

Yesterday I was going through some of the huge number of photos saved on my hard disk. I came across some pics from last summer’s visit to Malaysia, and I remembered that I’ve taken few pics in Ripley’s Believe it or not museum to post them in a blog but I never got the chance to so I think now is my chance =)

I’ve always liked to watch Ripley’s believe it or not on TV… they always show the weirdest things ever. I’ve seen a lot of cool things at the museum… and let me tell you alittle thing about museums, they make me feel uncomfortable… Its amazing how real statues look… when I look at them I feel like they would move at any second, they scare me lol its silly I know.

 

Anyways here are the pics:

 

 

 

These statues show some people who got seriously injured and amazingly they survived.

 

Those fertility statues are scary! The sign said that every woman that had touched those statues got pregnant, they wouldn’t necessarily “mate” to get pregnant, they just get pregnant! Me and my sister stood there and were like what the hell? It can’t be possible.. we both started daring each other to touch it and I was like “OK MAYBE I WILL” but I was really thinking “NOO WAY” and as we were fighting over who would touch it we heard the guy on the screen saying “ …. and 935 pregnancies confirmed in 2002” that line took care of the fight and we were out of there in a sec.!

 

 

This big shoe was worn by the tallest man on earth Robert Wadlow, the size of the shoe is 37AA. The shoe next to it I think is about a size 43 or 45 max.

 

 

In this pic (excuse the reflection of my hand on the pic), the head in the man’s hand is an actual head! Apparently there used to be people that little in the past. And why does that man have another man’s head in his hand? He used it for bowling… yes that’s how bowling started and gradually the ball got as big as normal people’s heads. Believe it!

hahaa joooking! He has the little head because the Jivaro Indians of the equador used to claim their enemies heads like that.

 

This car is entirely covered with 20,000 gold plated Canadian pennies.

 

 

Well these pics are all I got, I didn’t take many pics cause I was so busy running after my mom cause I was scared the statues would attack me =(

For all Grey's Anatomy lovers .. you might enjoy this.

 

I’m sure we all would agree that technology has made our lives much easier, but for sometime now I’ve been feeling like technology has been consuming me rather than me consuming it.

For example, the growing number of communication tools: If someone wants to reach you, their first option is to call you at home, you’re not there, they’ll have the option of leaving a message or trying to call your cell phone, you’re not answering your cell phone? Here comes the option of leaving you a voice message or a text message… or maybe try to look for you online and IM you…. or even IM or email you straight to your cell phone.. yes the phone you weren’t answering earlier!

Sometimes I just can’t take it anymore, it’s like there is no way to run! And the thing is I can’t say I can give up my tools of communication: I hate my cell phone, it pisses me off every time I hear it singing but I can’t give it up, I’m too used to it. Text messaging is great too, it comes in handy in a lot of occasions. Email I love! I’m not sure why I love it I just feel that it’s not as pressuring/annoying as the other tools. Its funny how when my internet connection goes down at home, I go crazy! I really do… even though I wouldn’t need it at the time.. I go nuts till its up and running again…I might not need it but I just need to know it’s there for me if I ever need it.

I’m not sure how I feel about these things, I really can’t live them or without them.

How did we all live before these things were available? Is it really important that we stay connected in every possible way all the time?

Wish you all a wonderful holiday

When I first looked at these artwork ... they all appeared to be great looking photographs when the fact is they're all

nothing but the fantastic work of a great Iranian realist painter called Iman Maleki.

Wow, how real can painting get?! 

This painting is my favourite.. if you're looking at it thinking it doesn't look that real to you please view it in full view and look at the details, I think you will be amazed.. i know I am.

The artist's bio taken from his site:

" Iman was born on 1976 in Tehran. He has been fascinated by the art of Painting since he was a child. At the age of 15, he started to learn painting under the mastery of his first and only teacher - Morteza Katouzian - who is the greatest realist painter of Iran. Meanwhile, he began to paint professionally. In 1999 he graduated in Graphic Design from the Art University of Tehran. Since 1998, he has participated in several exhibitions. In the year 2000, he got married and in the following year he established ARA Painting Studio and started to teach painting, considering classical and traditional values.

The most important exhibitions he has participated in, are: The Exhibition of Realist painters of Iran at Tehran Contemporary Museum of Art(1999) and The Group Exhibition of KARA Studio Painters at SABZ Gallery(1998) and at SA'AD ABAD Palace(2003). In 2005, Iman received the William Bouguereau award and the Chairman's Choice award in the second international ARC salon competition. "
