I Found $20 On The Street!
Share
One big advice for tourists in NY is to ALWAYS bring with you some cash. Because you never know when you will find a street fair. And it is during street fairs that you get to find real bargains, and of course, the yummy $1 Japanese and Thai foods.
After hearing mass in St. Patrick’s Cathedral, we went out the back way and found that there was a street fair going on at Madison’s. And as we don’t usually bring cash with us, we were only able to devour 2 sticks of chicken BBQ. Of course, it wasn’t enough (trust me, these $1 BBQs are so scrumptious you’d want to order the whole thing and have some beer or cocktail on the side as well).
So, naturally, we had to search for the nearest ATM.

"Hey! What does that sign read? Lemme take a closer look":
"Seriously? You’d give me $20 bucks if I agree to have my face painted? Why, sure! Sign me up!"
YANKEES Ticker-Tape Parade

The Parade was a blast!!! Intense, thrilling, exciting, and all the good super-ings words in Wikipedia. It's simply indescribable.
But I'm super exhausted, so perhaps I will blog about the experience tomorrow.
Just want to share some photos I've taken (and "stolen"). Have fun looking!

2009 World Series Champions

Best thing I love NY is the sense of absolute freedom.
Just go to Times Square and you’ll see people (mostly tourists, like myself) acting like total lunatics …. and yet no one bothers …. it’s perfectly alright. It IS so d#$^* good liberating!
And yesterday was no different. You should see the madness and the pandemonium going on in every Sports Store (or any store for that matter) that sells Yankees stuffs. It’s outrageously insane! People were scrambling to get hold of Yankees ‘world series’ gears and stuff.
Banners, flags, stickers, pens, magnets, clothing, accessories … you name it, it was all there ...
... but not for long. The shirts particularly (from sizes Small to Extra Large) were gone in a flash. (Just a tip to those who are joining this Friday’s parade: If you already see a shirt that you like and it has your size, don’t let go of it or you’ll be sorry. I’m telling you, some Yankees fans are like pinranha). As I stood there .... I wanted to sing "It feels like home to me, feels like home to me...". I'm pretty sure my daughter was totally NOT enjoying this.

and mine.
[P.S.] Just to compensate for all the agony I caused for dragging her with me to the sale madness, I finally gave in to her demand:

“2009 World Series Champions … New York Yankees!” Wow! We're all set for the parade. See you there!

Ok, this is the “shallowest of the shallow” (if there’s ever such a term) I could ever get. I am no baseball fan, not even a sports fan. [I’m a girl, for goodness sake and I’ve got different interests]. But I really, completely, totally, madly loooooooooooooove NY. Well, particularly Times Square and yes, The New York YANKEES!
Well, only the name though, coz like I said I know nothing about baseball, except that I have a huge crush on Jeter and just because it is the official team of NY.
And I am so overly excited because Yankees won the championship last night, and I have never felt as excited as this in sports since my high school days when Ginebra won the basketball championship (it’s a local team and it happened centuries ago so that just goes to show how 'deep' I am with this sports thingy).
But I’m so ecstatic, shrieking with so much delight, and feeling so much alive. Any visitor in NY will surely feel the same way. I couldn’t wait till Friday for the Yankees parade.
Congratulations to Yankees!
Oh, gosh, I sooooo love NY! I wish I live here. (daydreaming!)

As Luck May Have It
"Do not pre-judge the circumstances you are in"
This quote is so profound. I don’t even remember where I heard or read this. But simply put, it’s actually saying that we need to view trials in our life as blessings in disguise.
Of course, it’s not that easy, especially when you’re hurting, or your present situation is just so d*&# unacceptable.
But look back at a time in your life when you felt so awful, when you thought you could not go on any longer …and then realize now that you had to experience those moments to have the kind of life you lead now.
I’ve got some memories of my own to share.
1. My first (so far) Brazilian wax.
2. My first (and only, I hope) root canal.
3. Breaking up with an ex. At the time, I felt life couldn’t be gloomier, but now I see it as one of the best things that happened to me. Look what I got now for my husband - - the best in the world!
So, if you’re down and low or your present situation is just so impossible for you to take, "do not pre-judge the circumstances you are in” since you are not seeing the bigger picture. God has much better plans for you and you just have to trust it is for your own good. (I guess, you’d have to believe it to be.)
Well, get inspired by this true story. This guy’s car was smashed coz of bad parking (first video). But see how it all ended for him (second video). Makes you wanna wish it happened to you instead. Lol.
Have fun watching!

I'm A Thrillionaire!
Today, I woke up feeling soooo energized. I think ...no ... I know ...that today will be one of the most exciting days of my life! I just knew it. I am thinking of the different possibilities that will happen to me today ... win the jackpot in NY lottery, a call from Joe Vitale, meet Esther & Jerry Hicks ... whew! I am feeling more energized as I think about these things!
And to start it all, when I checked my email, what do I read? Something about a person who, at only 38 years old, has fulfilled most of his wildest dreams. And boy! Were they really wild ... become a rock star, climbing the highest peaks, training and becoming certified as an Astronaut, having lunch on the Titanic at the bottom of the ocean. Whoooa! Lunch on the Titanic! Really, really awesome!
That's Nick Halik. Watch the video and get ready to be inspired! I'm only 36, so 2 years is still a lot of time for me to accomplish more of my life-long dreams. Hurray! Then, it will be my turn to have this kind of video, too!

Converting videos into mp3 - Part I
I thank God for Youtube. I loooove Youtube. I love it so much I’ve subscribed to multiple channels there. It's where I get to watch movies I haven’t seen in the past (or have seen but were still worth watching over and over again), shows I’ve missed, video clips from seminars I’ve never attended like that of Abraham-Hicks, Bob Proctor, Joe Vitale, Jack Canfield, Echart Tolle, Wayne Dyer, Bo Sanchez, among others.
And those were the videos that don’t have mp3 counterparts (you can’t find them on sites that offer free mp3 downloads – which mostly have music videos/mp3 sounds).
So, when I find a certain video on youtube that I would like to transfer to my mp3 player, I immediately turn the same into an mp3 file. (Note: even if you have an mp4 player, it’s still best to turn videos into mp3 files coz they consume lesser space, with the exception of course, of movies and games).
So, how to turn video files to mp3 format?
First, you gotta have a youtube downloader. There are many free softwares available on the mighty net but the one we use is the Free FLV Converter. Secondly, you gotta have a software that extracts audio from the video, and for this we use AoA Audio Extractor. Once you have installed these free softwares, you’re all set. It would be best to have shortcuts of these programs on your desktop for easy access.
Here’s the step by step process for downloading videos from youtube:
1. Find a video on youtube and click on it
2. copy the link (on the address tab)
3. click on FLV Converter (you can also use this to search on videos on the net)
4. from the top menu, click Tube downloader
5. paste the video link on the “add link” space
6. Click the + button
7. your video is now being downloaded onto your computer (if you wanna download the videos onto a specific folder, then change the “Output Path” (it’s on the left side of the FLV converter)
Note: you may consecutively download several videos if you want to, without waiting for the other videos to finish downloading.
