Happy Birthday, Zaldy!

This birthday of my very dear friend, Zaldy Uera was held few weeks ago but I only find time just now to post due to my school heavy loads. He never missed a year without celebrating it. Only few of us attended but anyway, it was fun. Same guests, same faces except for the teenagers that stayed in our place in the conservatory without changing places. So, we stayed in the kitchen while the teenagers stayed as they were.

This is also the time that I'm going to announce that I might be leaving entrecard or give myself some time to concentrate on my studies. I found out that entrecard is trying to make some changes that is not favourable for me. Once I got my cashout, I will be dormant but the widget will stay and you can still drop if you wish. I only return dropping for those badges that landed in my dropbox. Otherwise, I will not do the same routine as before. I gain nothing about it anyway.

So, that's it at the moment and thank you for your drops. ............Click Here For The Rest Of The Post............

Tribute To The King Of Pop

(CNN) -- U.S. fans of Michael Jackson are pouring out their grief through music and dance, impromptu shrines at symbolic locations and heartfelt remembrances online.

Jackson's star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame was surrounded hours before dawn Friday by candles, flowers, posters and balloons. As the sun rose, a man crouched on the sidewalk and painted a portrait of the pop star, who died suddenly on Thursday.

"This is a very sad day here in Hollywood, California," sobbed Melissa Fazli, a CNN iReporter. "This is very, very sad. I can't believe it."

The star emblem had been covered until almost 3 a.m. by a red carpet for the premiere of the Sasha Baron Cohen film "Bruno" at Grauman's Chinese Theater, but fans started leaving mementos as soon as the carpet was removed. The film's producers reportedly cut a scene referencing Jackson, at least for the premiere.

"He was an innovator," a fan named Delores said outside the theater. "He's basically an icon in his own time -- legendary. It's going to take years [to sink in] that he's gone, because he's always with me. ... I'm just trying to assess it all right now. I'm still mourning, and at the same time missing him. It's a little bit much to bear."

Fans gathered near the gates of the Los Angeles home where the King of Pop collapsed Thursday, and hundreds more assembled outside the UCLA Medical Center, where Jackson was pronounced dead.

The U.S. fans' reaction was part of a worldwide outpouring of grief over Jackson's death and celebration of his life and art. See how people reacted in other countries

People stopped in their tracks Thursday in New York's Times Square, staring up at the giant TV screens bearing news of Jackson's death. Some people set up lawn chairs in the evening. ............Click Here For The Rest Of The Post............

It's Gardening Again

I love gardening and I really find time to do it everyday, no excuses. I know that this is not a beautiful and a dream garden but at least, I have something to show of. It is only a small garden that is why, I am able to maintain it and make it beautiful to look at. ............Click Here For The Rest Of The Post............

Gardening Time

This is a continuation of my gardening that happened few weeks back but only this time I've got the time to do it after my rounds of dropping and sorting my problem with the no comment hater blogger.

At this time, rainy season is what we feel nowadays. I do remember if June is already in the calendar as this is the time for Wimbledon Tennis Championships in London. It always rain. But I heard that the adoring fans will not be soaked with rain because the centre court is already equipped with a retractable roof. I think that is so helpful.Let's just hope that our local hero and world number 3, Andy Murray will make a history if he possibly win the grand slam title. Fred Perry was the last Briton to win the title way back decades ago.

Back to my gardening, I do love it and I just hope that my flowers will stay blooming all year round. ............Click Here For The Rest Of The Post............

My Garden

I love gardening and during spring and summer, I spent most of my time in the garden. My garden is only a small one but eventhough, this doesn't stop me from cultivating and propagating the flowers. I bought a lot of bedded flowers and I planted them in the pots.

I know that they will not last long but at least, my summer is blooming with flowers. My only concern is the pests and insects that ruined them. I sprayed insecticides hoping that this would prevent them from infecting my flowers.

Anyway, my garden relieves my stress and makes my day livelier and happier. Hope they will stay until autumn. ............Click Here For The Rest Of The Post............

Birmingham Gay Pride 2009

The annual gay pride was slated last May 23 & 24. But Mayette and I went there on Sunday with Akring. As we arrived there, there was no parade. I decided that we would be going to the gay village but again, we could not find any parade and mardi gras.

In the village, there were so many people there. The weather was cooperating. It was a very lovely day. As we were so tired of going round the gay village, we decided to go home in vain.

As I reached home, I hurriedly checked the site and it says that the parade was actually done the day before, Saturday. Anyway, I really missed the mardi gras but I will definitely go to London this July for the biggest mardi gras ever. ............Click Here For The Rest Of The Post............
