I just read the news claiming that you can buy an unlocked iPhone both 8GB and 16G in Hong Kong withoutsigning any contract.

Gift, my sister, took pictures of a squirrel who stopped by her window and looked for Enzo. Where is Enzo? Anybody home??

May I see Enzo please?

I believed that I never posted pictures of the red and white lilies blooming in my backyard. It happened like a few months ago. I went through My Pictures folder, and thought that I should share pictures of them. They are so surreal.. I mean I would never thought I would be able to have these kinds of flower in my garden. Well.. I’m not sure it is cheating or not because I didn’t plant them, but I did water them though

White Lily

I learned in hard way that I shouldn’t have waited for fully blooming flowers and then cut them. I should have cut them right before they were about to bloom.  This way, the flowers will beautifully bloom in the vase! However, I was still managed to have them bloom successfully in my vase. I think I probably did not have a chance to take pictures of the red lilies… I cannot find any picture of them…too bad

Whoo hoo… this is the second blooming for Escobaria Minima or Nelie Cory.  According to the desert-tropical, Escobaria Minima grows in desert grassland and is restricted to the Caballos Novaculite Formation. So, it’s originally from Texas!

I’m so happy to see it’s blooming again because some of my cacti look like they are dying … hahaha!

I found this article from boingboing

This is a very powerful picture captured by Dian Agung Nugroho. It’s horrible to see a girl acting like this. A lot of people wonder what it is her mind. What do you think?

My co-worker, Brittany, gave me a piece of bread called “Amish Friendship Bread.” Yummy…It’s moist and not too sweet.

You probably are curious like me that why she called friendship bread. This concept has been known for a long time, Michelle (another co-worker) added. Think about the concept like “Chain Letter.” Yep… you pass the bread to your friends and your friends can pass to someone else.. on and on…

According to Wikipedia, Amish Friendship Bread is a type of sourdough starter being a substitute for baking yeast and being used to make many kinds of yeast-based breads, shared with friends, or frozen for future use. The sweet, cake-like Amish Cinnamon Bread is a common bread that is made from this starter; it is a simple, stirred quickbread that includes a substantial amount of sugar and vegetable oil, with a mild cinnamon flavor. It has characteristics of both pound cake and coffee cake.

Brittany added extra ingredients to it to make it her own. she added nuts, raisin, etc. Based on the recipe I got from Brittany, it will take 10 days to make the bread. At day 10th, you will be able to separate the batter as a “starter” for your friends to make the bread. You can give away up-to three friends (one cup for each), and your friends can do the same as you to later give away three additional friends for each starter.

This sounds fun!! She’s going to give me a starter!! I will post the recipe when I have the batter.

I watched Wonder Girls’ new released single Nobody music video by chance, and I loved it. I found the MV very funny, sexy, and rock!

So, who’s Wonder Girls? They are Korean KPOP girl band. WG are found and produced by singer-songwriter Park Jin-Young and are signed to his talent agency. They became popular in the fall of 2007 year with the song “Tell Me.” (Wikipedia)

Take a look at their new MV! - Very funny! I love their retro 60s-80s looking and their rap at the end…

If you like the song, you can download Here (Nobody.mp3) 8MB. Please note that I have no intention to violate the copy rights, but support their music. If you like the song, please buy their CD!

“Nobody” - Wonder Girls

I went back and search for “Tell Me” song. Wow… it’s good too, but I like Nobody more.

Take a look at new released MV from David Archuleta’s very first single, Crush. I think his MV is not bad at all.. but a bit cliche….. lol

What do you think? Any thought?

Pictures below are from Most Emailed Photos, Yahoo.com. These pictures are IKE’s aftermath. Pretty amazing, isn’t it?

Fish remain stuck in a fence as flood waters caused by Hurricane Ike recede, in West Orange, Texas, Monday, Sept. 15, 2008.

People look over the wreck of a wooden ship uncovered by Hurricane Ike on a beach on Fort Morgan Road in Fort Morgan, Ala., Tuesday, Sept. 16, 2008. Archeologists say the wreck could be that of a two-masted Civil War schooner that ran aground in 1862 or another ship from some 70 years later. The wreck had already been partially uncovered when Hurricane Camille cleared away sand in 1969. Researchers at the time identified it as the Monticello, a battleship that partially burned when it crashed trying to get past the U.S. Navy and into Mobile Bay during the Civil War

A beachfront home stands among the debris in Gilchrist, Texas on the coast of the Gulf of Mexico on Sunday, Sept. 14, 2008 after Hurricane Ike hit the area. Ike was the first major storm to directly hit a major U.S. metro area since Hurricane Katrina devastated New Orleans in 2005.
