From what I seen in the past

Usually, I watch the series of shows called "I love" and I saw one today that was I love the 80's. It showed stuff that happened when I was a little girl and even before I was born (years 1980 to 1983)
The Phillies won the World Series in 1980, and the Mets (tragically) won in 1986 all because of Bill Buckner's blunder. I never saw that game, and then again, I don't give crap for the Mets or the Yankees. Phillies fan all the way since they won the World Series in 2008. And I'm hoping they win again this year.

They also showing movies from the 80's like Gremlins. I never cared much for that movie. All I know from it is that they don't like water and you shouldn't feed them after midnight. It's just like raising a teenager. LOL! Another movie they depicted was Back to the Future. A movie staring a very cute Michael J. Fox and a crazy Christopher Lloyd.

The music they had from the 80's was creepy, but I liked some of them.
First off, I will never, and I mean ever "Walk like an Egyptian" Lame. I can't stand "Somebody's watching me" from a singer, who I bet, mysteriously vanished into thin air. I admit I do have that song on my iPod, but every time I hear it, it reminds me of a Geico commercial.
Another song, by Genesis, was called, "Land of Confusion" Two things about that music video, it was more like the land of Muppets on crack and it scared the living daylights out of me. But I guess that's how the 80's were, really confusing.

But there were some good things about the 80's and I'm not talking about the creepy 80's hairstyles they had, that made every girl look like they were from New Jersey, but it also had a decade that lend the quote: "Do you believe in miracles" 1980 the year, not only my cousin was born, but it was also the year the USA hockey team beat USSR and won against Finland to be number one! It was also a decade that gave us another great quote that was used in politics: "Where's the beef?" That one old woman, god rest her soul, made that Wendy's commercial, and quote, famous 26 years after it aired.


Well, There are other I love's.... that are on VH1 once in a while and when I see the 90's version, I'll blog again about it, but till then.

Mozilla Firefox: IS IT SAFER????

Well, I barely use Internet explorer anymore since I couldn't watch any YouTube videos on it after their upgrade, so my brother installed Mozilla Firefox on my computer and I love it. I can watch YouTube videos (hopefully YouTube won't update anything I will soon regret, or they)

I think I feel safer when I use Mozilla Firefox because, unlike Internet explorer, Firefox blocks all, and I mean all pop up videos, and I guess it's just as helpful with installing updates in a flash. I just get a tiny bit nervous with it, but I shouldn't be. It's pretty stupid to worry about it. I'm also trying to get my free slot score to go up higher. It'll take a while, but I think by the end of May, the score will be higher.

My brother trusts Mozilla Firefox, because of it being useful and helpful when he wants to update something. He also set up Firefox for my parents computer as well. I don't mind the Internet explorer, but it did give me more pop ups. I hope to enjoy Mozilla Firefox for months (or years) to come. Till then Ciao Bloggers! and pray for Haiti!

Poem: I will not back down

I am not going down without a fight,

I am not going to give up,

I will not,

am not,

ever,

in my life,

will be the weak one,

the soft spot,

the kind that will put up a white flag,

and consider it over,

no,

that is not me



I will not back down,

no way,

no how,

not even if it means,

losing,

For what I am trying to stand up to,

well,

it doesn't matter,

because,

I WON'T BACK DOWN!

Autism and ADHD

Two subjects that I want to talk about.

First off, I suffer from having Autism and ADHD.
I'm getting better at it, yet I was watching TV recently and there was a kid that was suffering from asperger syndrome (or autism in other words) It made me think of my childhood. I was just like that kid. I had an incredible memory, yet I was not focusing, not making eye contact and was just in my own little world.

I also have ADHD which in short stands for: Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder. I still have it today, just like I still have Autism and I don't care. I don't think of it as a syndrome or a disorder. I mostly think of it as god's gift. He put me on this Earth with these syndromes (along with a bad heart and a stroke). I just wanted to blog about my ADHD, because I know I'm not the only one in the world that has it. Having Autism doesn't change who I really am. Although it gives me an incredable memory on dates, still, I'm still me.

Well just wanted to tell you that. Till then, Caio bloggers!

Slow computer

What I don't like is when my computer is slow, or barely working. I mean I know it's ok, but I get a little nervous when I update it with viruses and well...
It keeps updating, backing up files and stuff like that. I just wish I didn't worry so much about my computer.
But I don't want it to be too slow or freeze when I'm busy online or writing poems, or even listening to iTunes. I mean, I should update it and I wrote a letter to myself saying that I shouldn't worry about it, it's only a computer. An old computer, not too old, but still I want to still use it when I'm online and such. Maybe some of you bloggers could give some tips. Well, gotta go till then Caio Bloggers and Pray for Haitti!

Oscar winners

First off, I was very happy to see a female director win for Hurt Locker. I never saw the movie before, but it did beat Avatar for best director and picture. Others that won were Sandra Bullock for best actress, Jeff Bridges for best actor (he's so much like his father). Mo'Nique won for best supporting actress.

My father said to me when Kathryn Bigelow won for best directing, that a woman can do and triumph over anything no matter what. Even tough I'm more of a writer than a director, I knew what he meant and I thanked him. Sadly, We lost a lot of great actors, directors, writers and performers this year like:
Patrick Swayze
Brittany Murphy (who actually died of pneumonia, not for losing weight)
Natasha Richardson
Roy E. Disney
Michael Jackson
the list goes on and on. Too tragic.



Up won for best animated movie and it was also up to be nominated for best picture like nine other movies along with Hurt Locker, Avatar, An Education I forget the other seven. Last time ten movies were nominated was back in the 40's and Casablanca won for best picture. I loved Casablanca. The movies that were up for best picture nomination, well some I actually wanted to see. It had been years since I'd seen a movie in theaters. Last time I saw a movie in the theaters was 'The Hangover' I can not wait to see these wonderful movies like Precious: Based on the novel 'Push' by Sapphire, or the hurt locker. Would love to see those movies. Avatar on the other hand. Nah! I mean I don't hate the movie I just have no desire to see it. Well. Gotta Jet! BTW: James Taylor did a pretty goo rendition of 'In my life' But the Beatles did it best.
Till then:
There are places I remember, in my life though some have changed, some for ever not for better, some have gone and some remain, but in my life... I love you more. ( I really don't know the whole song word for word, but it's a beautiful song.) Caio bloggers!
