Hyperlink an Image or Text

So instead of typing: www.hotmail.com
You can do this:

1. Click on the green circle with a chain icon above "Recover post"
2. Type in your link
3. Something like this should appear:
<*a href="http://www.hotmail.com"><*/a>
---Sorry I had to add the <* and the <*/a or else it would turn into the hyperlink---
4. After the (.com") and before the (">) type: (target="_blank")
5. After the (>) and before the (<) type (Hotmail)
6. So now it should look like:<*a href="http://www.hotmail.com"target="blank">Hotmail<*/a>
---Sorry I had to add the <* and the <*/a or else it would turn into the hyperlink---
7. The word "Hotmail," should now be underlined + highlighted when people view your posts!

One Week of Vacation

It ended yesterday when I had to go back to work...

Which is good, because I like + want my dough! So, I still kept my morning schedule but the last few days I've been doing the Spring Cleaning Thing. Dust, wash and vacuum. When you live in a "medium to big" sized home, you should probably do the major cleaning once a month. I tend to do it once every 4 months!

Oh yah, "T.O.M" visited (it was that "Time Of the Month"), so I did sleep some mornings and afternoons off too...Don't worry, I actually had FUN during my vacation...I went shopping in the afternoons and realized that the Dollarama Stores are amazing! Seriously, I think that you can find about 75 to 80% of things that you would need around the home. From toiletries to decorations (for holidays or around the home), food, toys, tools and more!

OH, remember Nair? The hair removal kit designed for women? They got that to! $1 for a 175 ml bottle. I saw the exact same product when I went to one of my favorite pharmacies for $5.99! No joke! I bought it for a dollar. I haven't used that stuff since high school! And it does work on legs with stubble. You just have to put like 3 layers of it on and then wait about 9mins (according to the bottle no more than 10mins). The bottle says 3mins, but stubble takes a little longer. Under arms took me 15mins! Be careful though, because it does sting a bit. Shower first, nair it on, rinse withOUT soap! Then wipe it off with a WHITE face cloth (it bleaches colored face cloths!). I do my arms, back (use a spatula on your back), chin (yes! I have weird facial hair there!), belly (yes, I have a masculine hair line on my stomach, gross huh?), bikini area, and last but not least, my legs. I tried the "moustache area." The bottle doesn't recommend doing it on your face. But with the "moustache area," put a thin layer and take off after the 3mins, because the hair there is normally thin. And it will burn if you wait longer! I guess the skin there is sensitive? Oh, another warning, wait about 45 to 60mins before putting on lotion +/deodorant. And when you put on your lotion, you'll smell the nair. That's the annoying part. But today is my third day without shaving anything, so I'm happy! If I miss any hairs, I just shave it off. I recommend it to people who don't have sensitive skin, who don't want to shave certain sensitive spots like the bikini area (razor bumps are so last decade, ewww!), have time to do it before bedtime and love the soft skin they have for days!

Other than that, I've been good + well rested up! Now its time to take charge, make some dough so I can take out my friends to Ocean Drive Night Club! There's gonna be belly dancers on Saturday night! Cool huh?

Angels Do Really Help Us

As long as you follow the: God/J.C/Holy Spirit codes of conduct...

Anyway, in all my other blogging websites, you might notice a difference, especially under the "employment" field. No more factory worker/labourer. Now, I'm officially a Call Centre Agent. Many people have many different opinions about Call Centre Agents. And I say, "WHATEVER!" I love my job, the people there are really nice, and it's been a month since I've started. I have excellent hours, and now I have time for myself in the morning. I'm a morning person as long as I don't have to get up to get ready for work for like 8am. My work starts in the afternoon and I finish @10pm. If I wanna hit the clubs I can without worrying, will I get to work on time?

Oh speaking of clubs, I finally went to Ocean Drive Night Club on Wednesday night. Which was probably a bad idea because I only had 2hrs. of sleep AND, I forgot to hand in a sheet (that we fill out every night @ my Call Centre job) and I had to come in on a Saturday to hand it in (I don't work on Fridays, yah that's right, every Friday is party night! Okay, maybe not every Friday night)

Anyway, life is sweet right now.

Put in Your Eye Drops Right Away!

Or you can forget about having a nice peaceful night.

After the laser eye surgery they suggest to put in your eye drops every hour! Let's just say I won't be making that mistake again. Anyway, forget about TV/Computer viewing/Reading, yes reading for the next 24hrs. All the laser eye doctors want you to do is sleep! Let's see, oh yah, the next day was perfect! The fog from my eyes disappeared, which made it hard to watch anything anyway the day before and my eyes felt a little irritated but, nothing big. Just keep putting in your eye drops and you'll be fine.I may not be wearing prescription glasses anymore, but I still need to wear sunglasses when I step outside, even when its dark.

Please welcome the new me.
Cross-reference Laser Eye Surgery Yay or Nay?

Dating Service for Celebrities

I have this idea, it's probably illegal, maybe they sell it on the black market...
So what's with all the celebrities divorcing/breaking up?
Why don't they pay people to date them? Seriously, there should be this dating service where they get to pick out a person from a catalogue and sign some kinda 3month/6month/1year contract to pay the agency.

They spend $1500 a night at hotels when they've picked up someone from the bar. It's not like they wouldn't do it. Yah it seems embarrassing to pay someone to date you, but the agency would add some discretion/privacy.

People may even argue about the relationship wouldn't be real. Honey, more than enough celebrities walk around with only 20% of what God gave them at birth!
And the only way for the employee to get fired/let go would be if they told anyone which celebrities paid them to date them. Sold information about the celebrity that they were paid to date. Or if they slept with the celebrity, because that would constitute prostitution. Or if they wanted to marry the celebrity. And if they marry, the agency should get some kind of bonus or something. And for the agency to make a perfect match, the celebrity would under go a few psychological tests, character/trait tests, a survey of what the celebrity is looking for, etc.

I guess you really have to be a certain kind of person to seek employment like that. Also the celebrities would pay extra on certain criterias like, do they want the person to cook/clean/babysit for them.

Sounds crazy, they probably already have it, oh well, tell me what you think!

Yah, I Enjoyed Spring This Afternoon!

I decided to go rollerblading.

And from what I remembered about last year's Spring's rollerblading, I sucked at it! But today I was awesome. I was able to go fast without tripping/falling. Ummm, I wore an ugly helmet, but hey it's a good idea to wear one. Because at least with a bike you can jump off, but the rollerblades are kind of stuck on your feet. I've had the same rollerblades since I was 13 yrs. old. And no, I never ever changed the wheels. I think I'll just buy a new set. It's more fun exercising outside on a nice day than exercising inside watching TV. I listened to my iPod to make it even more fun. I'll only rollerblade during the day. I'm kind of afraid of the night, I don't wanna get run-over by a garbage trucker. Yikes! When the cars would come by I would run on the grass. And that was a easy thing to do. It looks kinda funny when you don't do it properly. After a half an hour I noticed my left side was hurting, so its best just to rollerblade slowly or walk it off. You need the grass to walk, its a bit difficult to walk on the ashalt.

Oh, when you exercise like that and you haven't done it in awhile, here's a list of things to have handy: Have a small school/sports bag to carry the following:

  1. Cellphone - Just in case you hurt yourself and need a taxi or someone to pick you up
  2. Money - for the taxi
  3. A quarter for the phone booth if you don't have a cellphone or the battery dies
  4. Anti-bacterial soap - just in case you grab a pole in the ground to stop you and there's slime or gum on it, ew!
  5. Home address/Picture ID, just in case you pass out (Ok, I know, that's a bit extreme)
  6. And a nice half frozen water bottle - I put a bit of juice in my water bottles to keep them tasty
Hope that list helps you get started! Oh yah, today, I wore a tunic shirt (find them at Le Garage), a full zippered hoodie-shirt with sleeves, and a Spring jacket to cover myself. When I got hot and sweaty-like I just unzipped the jacket and hoodie half way.

Anyway, just figure out which Spring/Summer activity you like, thre's ton out there!

I Love Having 2 Jobs

I haven't officially quit my first job yet, but it's in the works. Okay this is how I feel about working at my 1st job. Dealing with the employees, is like playing the first 20 levels of a video game and finally getting to the boss to destroy him. Everyday I feel like I have to redo the 20 levels and finally slash that enemy to the death at the end of my day! When someone confronts me while I'm minding my own business + working, I just envision them as one of the baddies from The Legend of Zelda games (I love Zelda in all shapes and forms). Each person who is negative with me has their own baddie. For example, my supervisor is Ganon and the lady who works in front of me is a moblin. Teehee!

Anyway, I don't feel so useless anymore (read blogs from Nightmares of Fantasy). I don't go home @suppertime wondering if any of my "friends" will call me. There's only one friend that I call and has time to chat. Some of my other friends use the Internet to chat. I'm more of a blogger, and besides when I'm on the net I'm looking for reviews for stuff to buy, like the latest hair removal products: Sally Hansen's Spray-On Shower-Off spray can. Apparently you spray it on your body, wait 3 minutes, no wiping or spreading needed, then just shower it off. I would love to use it on my hard to reach places like my back! Google it and see a more detailed explanation.

After my second job which ends @10pm, I've been bar-hopping more. The past two weeks I went to a Karaoke 80s Rock Lounge which I didn't know we had just 15 minutes from my home. I'm not much of an alcoholic, but I do love to dance. And its awesome, they play 2 karaoke songs (which are the 80s Rock songs that people get to sing to the lyrics on this big screen TV), then they play 1 latest dance music video. So when the karaoke is on, I'm sitting, drinking, on my palm surfing the Internet, (yah I connect to my wireless connection from home, I didn't know it could go that far! But the signal is weak, it only shows 2 bars out of 5. Make sure your wireless connection has a password or else your neighbors can go on the Internet for free and slow down your connection time!), watch the singers and sing along. But when they play the music videos I get on the dance floor! I only stay for 2 hours and I go only once during the work week.

I'm liking the freedom and the extra cash to save which I just started to do today!
Life is sweet and don't let anyone tell you that you can't do it. Because I've just proven a lot of people wrong by looking for a second job and feeling comfortable staying at it too.
