VINTAGE CARS

…. it was awesome!!! I was at an event last Sunday morning and was overwhelmed being surrounded by so many of these… well, I’ve decided to post it here instead of my FLICKR account because the last I uploaded pics it says I needed to wait the next month because I have ‘exhausted’ the space allocated, unless I buy… eh! H E L L O…. when I turn professional and get to sell, I’ll reconsider. Meantime, I’ll just put up what I can, when I can, here.

Ready to go…

train_on_tracks2

train Victoria

Trains in the sky
Are traveling through fragments of time
They're taking me to parts of my mind
That no one can find
I'm ready to fall
I'm ready to crawl on my knees to know it all
I'm ready to heal, I'm ready to feel

They're telling me it's beautiful
I believe them but will I ever know
The world behind my wall?
The sun will shine like never before

One day I will be ready to go
See the world behind my wall

Why are there so many Songs about rainbows
And what's on the other side
Rainbow's are visions, They're only illusions
And rainbows have nothing to hide
So we've been told and some chose to Believe it
But I know they're wrong wait and see
Someday we'll find it
The Rainbow Connection; The lovers, the dreamers and me
Who said that every wish would be heard and answered
When wished on the morning star
Somebody thought of that and someone believed it
And look what it's done so far
What's so amazing that keeps us star gazing
What do we think we might see
Someday we'll find it
That Rainbow Connection; The lovers the dreamers and me
Have you been half asleep and have you heard voices
I've heard them calling my name
Are these the sweet sounds that called the young sailors
I think they're one and the same
I've heard it too many times to ignore it
There's something that I'm supposed to be
Someday we'll find it
The Rainbow Connection; The lovers, the dreamers and me

taking a chance on…

love 1 love double-heart

an advice…..

 

be brave…

when

taking a chance

 

 

“Love is made by two people, in different kinds of solitude.
It can be in a crowd, but in an oblivious crowd”

....Louis Aragon

 

Love is an instinct and hence beyond mind's control.
Love is an emotion and works always with motion....


When you love you should not say, "God is in my
heart" but rather, "I am in the heart of God."
And think not you can direct the course of love,
for love, if it finds you worthy, directs your course...

Fly.. fly away…

And when the roses are half-bud soft flowers
And lovely as the king of flies has come
It was a fleeting visit, all too brief
In three short minutes, he had been and gone

Oh Dragonfly, dragonfly…

The ‘fire waterfall’ in California.

Well.. it’s not new! But for a slow coach, it’s news anyway… and I am amazed.

Yosemite National Park, California USA was gazette as a national park in 1890. It stretches as far as 1200sq km and is world famous for its rugged terrain, waterfall and century-old pine trees. The spectacular view of the waterfall is created by the reflection of sunlight hitting the falling water at a specific angle. This rare sight can only be seen at a 2-week period towards the end of February and the "fire" waterfall of El Capitan is one of the most spectacular of all scenery.

To photograph this rare event, photographers would often have to wait and endure years of patience in order to capture them. The reason is because its appearance depend on a few natural phenomenon's occurring at the same time and luck.

1st, is the formation of the waterfall - The water is formed by the melting of snow and ice at the top of the mountain. It melts between the month of December and January and by the end of February there might not have much snow left to melt.

2nd, is the specific angle of the sunray hitting the falling water - The sun's position must be exactly at a particular spot in the sky. fire waterfall 5 national parkThis occur only in the month of February and at the short hours of dusk. If it is a day full of clouds or something blocking the sun, you can only take pictures of your own sorry faces on the waterfall. It coincides with the fact that the weather in the National Park at that time of the year is often volatile and unpredictable.

OMG! Paul said so…

Spain Iniesta                              emo5

1 Spain – 0 Netherlands

it was the 28th minute of extra time… a robust game played.. so many yellow cards was out ~ more than 10! I lost count ~ to keep the game in order but both teams managed to ‘play ball’…

Spain_goal_11jul10_480 and so, the Champion of the FIFA World Cup 2010 goes to Spain. Andres Iniesta nestled his shot neatly past Maarten Stekelenburg into the left-hand corner of the net after a delicate pass into space from Cesc Fabregas. South Africa Soccer WCup Final Netherlands Spain

Paul the oracle octopus has predicted correctly… AGAIN. Making it a total 100% this time round. As a completely neutral person, I was up to watch a great game and mostly to see first hand how Paul’s prediction will come true. Expecting the game to go into penalty shoot-out, it was stunning when the ball hit the net. Probably because of the offside seconds before it. The Dutch team must have expected a whistle for it and slackened a little, Iniesta used it to his advantage and sent it in… spain goal by andresit wasn’t an offside anyway…

It was an exhausting game for both teams… for me too!! I’ve been up since midnight, watch the closing ceremony a little, NCIS, House, CSI… before the kick-off and waiting for the goal which finally was delivered at precisely 5am, Malaysian time… it’s our sleeping hours and a Monday… (betcha’ people will be moving like zombies today!) So, the anxiety and excitement of it all sends me here, penning my thoughts. (Well, I am not to fall asleep ya)Two cents?

Felicitaciones EspaƱa

you did well and deserve to win…

spain team       spain flag1

However, all the time… it was Paul that was on my mind. The intuition and brain, God’s creation ya…  time for fajr prayer…
