End of the year

... academic year. That's what I like to call this period. And this "end of the year" smell floats everywhere, espEcially in my university. Whatever happens, whoever happens, the last couple of days at school are THE SAME. Everybody's stressed - everybody's happy. You know?...:) But generally people are happy and smiling, because the side of the brain that whispers "It's the end of the year, the end of all the suffering, time for relaxation" wins. I think that only people who have some degree of unstableness in their brain, will fail and go nuts (bananas :D). Hey, great timing for this poster, unconventional in a way.

It is always about chaos. Today, and my colleagues can surely confirm that, was THE perfect example. Add a drunkish teacher and a herd of "end of the year" silly kids. You know?...:) Oh yeah, and taking pictures. You know?.. I mean, it is always like this. I love this. :)) And, sorry.., seeing classmates you have never/hardly ever/rarely seen. THE END. Viva la revolucion! :)) Sorry, it's the craziness. read more...

Parchez.ca

Foarte cool. Cu toate ca nu ma agit prea tare din cauza problemelor de trafic din bucuresti (1.n-am masina, 2.folosesc mereu metroul) stiu ca 120% din conversatiile celor de aici vizeaza anume asta. Pentru cei cu simtu umorului, si, mai ales, cu simt, u know, site-ul asta le aduce niste stickere pe care ar putea sa le lipeasca pe masinile a caror proprietari se poarta ca niste.

Repet: http://parchez.ca/

Oddest Sport

Img Source: SI.com, Robert Laberge/Getty Images

Long-time dilemma here - What is the oddest sport? Weirdest, goofiest, however you define "odd". So I launch this challenge for your crazy brain.
My proposal for today is Curling.
Isn't it ODD? Com'on!?!





"If you knew that the preliminary rounds of Olympic curling began this week, you're probably on the team. The rest of us are even less interested in curling than Britney is in a car seat..."

Accidentally found this funny article here.

Note: Yes, I use to watch this sport on TV, but it is just ODD! No offence.

Preotii rulez prea tare

Eu o sa pun "traducere" daca nu e clar pentru toti, dar sper sa se inteleaga. Imi place la nebunie sa aud moldoveneasca, mai ales "in doua" cu rusa, mai ales aflandu-ma in anturaju bucurestean deja de 3 ani. Rulez!! I love my country! :)) [da, filmat in Moldova, Republica Moldova]

Inulea, thank you so much! You made my day! Um.. adica.. "ni-ai facut zîua!" :))

Poor thing


I think: it may be fake; this proposal method is bad; poor girl; poor boy; awkward situation for the players; the guy is nuts; the girl is somehow down to earth, good for her; fun commentators ("young man, he'd probably get over it in 10, 12 years" =))); the outfit is ugly; the hair is nice; wanting to make SUCH an impression over your loved one is suspicious, smth is wrong with their relationship :)
What would YOU do if you were him / her?

Another, this time successful, public proposal here.

Do one thing every day that scares you

Don't be reckless with other people's hearts.
Don't put up with people who are reckless with yours.

Stretch

Maybe you'll dance the funky chicken on your 75th wedding anniversary.

Your choices are half chance.
So are everybody else's.

Read the directions, even if you don't follow them.

...the older you get, the more you need the people who knew you when you were young.

Don't mess too much with your hair or by the time you're 40 it will look 85.


These are excerpts from an article, found here. The "video" is also featured.

B&J tied the knot

Yay!!! Finally. I'm happy for them. No wedding photos, no evil rumors, which I am happy about. I always appreciated the way they treat their intimate life. Good for them. Congrats!
Anyway, the paparazzis got their freakin shots of the 'guests' arriving at Jay-Z's appt. in New York, here from People magazine. read more...

Madonna's new video

Again Timbaland. Again Timberlake. No comment.


Honestly, with all my respect to his talent, Timbaland is just too much. I'm feeling awkward towards this, because under his music guidance artists like Aaliyah, Missy Elliott and, recently, Nelly Furtado, made stuff that really inspired me. When I heard how Madonna's song starts, I got chills all over me. The "freaky, freachy, cheeky" sounds just like ooooold time "Try Again" from Aaliyah.

By the way, this video is really important to me, it was a whole phenomenon back then :D

Ok, so I understand, maybe it's a signature "freaky, freaky", but - please - no more.

Madonna sounds as awkward as ever, on top of these sounds, Justin is just the same as always. God.... BIG mistake.... Or.. maybe it's just an opinion...?
I liked just the first few seconds, after Timbaland's "freaky, freaky" intro, it was somehow entertaining to me (made me want to move :D). And yeah - the way he says "Madooonna" :)) And of course!, Madonna is excessively trying to show and PROVE that she is not what her age might suggest... holy shnappes.

Kitsch

I found this and though it's a kitsch to put up on blogs "very popular videos", but I WILL do it, because, personally, I have never seen it. It was given as an example in an article related to virals. Well, hell yeah, it has 4,215,387 views as of today. It's not very impressive, but maybe I can get feedback on what YOU think and if you've ever seen it. Probably Romania wasn't that "touched" by its viral aura :)


Let me just let me tell you about one more viral: Soulja Boy. I love it :D The CNN people name it "the hip-hop macarena" :))


Beyonce did it too, as part of her performance of the "Soldier" song (Destiny's Child), in her world tour, last year.


Lots more on YouTube, including prisoners, kids ballet dancers, cheerleaders and even soccer players :)
Have fun!

Rickroll

So we stumbled upon this ridiculous vid last night, and laughed for about 2-3 full-length videos :)) but didn't know the actual meaning of this Internet phenomenon.

Never Gonna Give You Up, Rick Astley (1987)

The song even has a Wiki page and interesting stuff about it :D It is known as an Internet meme, which is smth that spreads quickly from person to person via the Internet (reminds me of virals). People would place links that seem relevant to the subject, somewhere on the Internet, which actually takes the users to this video clip, smth like a prank. Anyway, if u want to know more consult the provided links ;) Don't worry :)) - no Rickroll pranks! ;)
