Weird Me Tag

Hey Miss Chant thank you for this tag.

Before I start this tag, I have to say that I dont really consider myself weird...Im more like the simple, ordinary type of person with big dreams and radical thoughts.

Since this tag, is about finding the weirdness in me, im gonna look for unusual things that I do that I think NOT everyone else does, so here it goes:

My Weirdness:

1. My hubby knows when I am awake some mornings because our doggies can talk, sometimes i give them voices as if I know what they are thinking...

2. When there are long articles I see in the internet that i like, I dont read them in the computer, I print them so I can read the hardcopy instead...

3. I can write bunch of lists of things to do in a matter of week, and they just file up one after the other...

4. I can watch my favorite movies over and over, once or twice or three times in a week, same movie if I like it...

5. If I dont have less than 7-8 hours of sleep at night, I usually ended up with a migraine or headache in the morning...

6. Some people think that some artists are weird, but I like to do some painting but I just want to paint flowers, and landscape/sceneries, no weirdo bloody stuff, and headless creatures, just beautiful flowers and stunning sceneries

7. I would like to have my own reading library, because I love to collect lots of different books and magazines and I want a library to put all of them in one place...

Since everyone might believe that its been a Tagging Season, meaning, some cannot comply with the tags every now and then due to overloaded tags pending prior, I wont tag anyone in particular, but if YOU (the one reading this) have a time to spare to reflect and find of things that make you kinda weird, please feel free to grab this, and let us know so we can read your asnwers...

A Strong Desire To Paint

Last night, I was watching Donny Deutch tv show, The Big Idea, where he had show guests that talk about their big ideas and inventions that changed their life. Last night episode of The Big Idea featured this corporate guy from the east coast that gave up his six (6) digits salary as a lawyer and decided to become a Lego Artist full time, to follow his real passion, the one that truly makes him happy. I heared it a million times, start with your passion and the money will follow, hopefully! I mean, who in the world would not want to do the things that you LOVE to do and get paid for it really good for it too. The Lego Artist now tour all over different areas, to display his amazing Lego artworks.

I currently dont have a six (6) digit income to give up like the guy featured in the show, so i guess it wont be such a hard decision for me, but I always wanted to paint, but never had the chance to really grab a formal education in that field. I been studying computers, and been working with computers since and its something that I like as well. But there is always that passion in me to paint, if an opportunity arise. At an young age, my older sister seem to notice my desire to do some arts because she started giving me pastels and watercolors as gifts during my graduation and birthdays. And my hubby been encouraging me to do some painting as well by buying me an easel. My hubby and I, sometimes we roam around some stores and ended up buying some sets of oil paints, some ready-to-use canvas and all kinds of brushes, that I can use to start painting. If only one day, I have a room dedicated for this area, where I can set-up all my painting materials and started doing it, it would be nice!

Christmas in the neighborhood

Yesterday, my hubby and I and our dog had a quick drive in our neighborhood and noticed how things have changed these past few years during Christmas times. During the past years, we dont see a lot of Christmas decors in some of our neighboring houses because some of the previous neighbors were Weekenders, as we call it, because they consider their houses here vacation homes and never really stayed full-time. But recently, these houses had been bought by full-time occupants and dramatically change the ambiance of the neighborhood already because during this time of year, we used to never see a lot of Christmas decorations in these houses, but these days, its totally changed, we are thrilled. The new occupants even beat us with being the first ones to put up their outdoor Christmas decors first! So we are beaten and we plan to put up our as well before the start of December, I hope! (One day left for that goal of putting up the Christmas decor outside). I truly like how it becomes nowadays, it was kind of frustrating before that we hardly see a lot of Christmas-decorated homes nearby, and now we can just drive around and see all these glimming lights and a joyful message of Christmas!

Search For Earth-Like Planet

This posting is gonna be totally different and unusual compare to my usual posts, that I have ever written. I am writing about my opinion on a very extraordinary and huge universe.

Last night in the History channel, i was watching this documentary episode about scientists going highs and lows exploring the vast universe around us, studying each planet they encounter with their state-of-the-art telescopes to search for a earth-like planet, similar planet where we all live in. These scientists are searching for a possible habitable planet for humans. It is amazing how these scientists are so determined to look for a planet like earth, a livable area with water, oxygen, etc.

With all the years of living here on earth, it never cross my mind to live somewhere else beside earth. But these scientists sure have wider persperstive, they are looking for that earth-like planet where someday humans can visit or live in. Nobody knows if a planet like this actually exist at all, but looking for it might someday result in discovery and will one day become norm and part of history. Just like how everyone before came to believe that earth is flat and was later discovered that it is actually round!

The question that lingers through my mind while I was watching the TV show was that, what if these scientists will really discover that there is a livable earth-like planet out there, what are the chances that anyone here on earth decides to move out there and live there instead? Probably a new technology will be developed to make traveling there possible and turn into a space exploration business and make it into a destination.

What are the possibilities that humans could possibly move to another earth-like planet if discovered later on? It is beyond the norm, and definitely beyond the ordinary to even think about it, but what if millions of years from now, earth will sadly become inhabitable effects due to devastating events like global warming, nuclear problems, etc. Will these be a reason enough to move somewhere else and live to another earth-like planet?! It is hard to imagine and come up of possible answer to this extraordinary question, but what do you think??!

Additional Thanksgiving Meal

Yesterday afternoon, we got a plate of sliced turkey meats, mashed potatoes, a third slice of pumkin pie, and some sweet jam from our not-so-distant neighbors. They invited us on Thanksgiving Day to have dinner with them, together with all their other invited family and friends guests, but we already had some simple plans for the day with our yummy Turkey Soup being slow cooked, the hourdervs, and the Leche Flan. But then they ended up giving some of their Thanksgiving foods, and they were great/yummers. So even if we didnt have a baked turkey on Thanksgiving Day like we used to, we ended up having one plus some pumkin pie as well! The previous years that we had pumkin pies in the table on Thanksgiving Day, I didnt try to grab any of it, so yesterday was the first time that I ever have a pumkin pie in my life. I am a pie eater, but I have to say that pumkin pie is not my most favorite type of pie, maybe that is why i never tried to eat them before yesterday, but it is definitely something that my stomach can handle in moderation. I ate the pumkin pie refrigerator cold, i wonder how they would taste warm!?
