Another set of Quotes from Caramelo

Before I sleep, allow me to share a couple more poignant lines from Sandra Cisneros' Caramelo. (Notice that it's only now that I made remarkable progress, in my read that is.)

From Page 272:

--Why is it sadness comes and gets you when you lie down?
--Maybe it's because we talk too much in the day, we can't hear what our heart is saying. And if you don't pay attention, then it talks to you through a dream. That's why it's important to remember your dreams....

From page 275 (A cheesy bit):

To love is a terrible, wonderful thing. The pleasure reminds you--I'm alive! But the pain reminds you of the same thing --! Ay! I am alive.

That's it for now.

This Feedjit Widget is soo COOL!

Last night I added a new widget to my blog. It’s called FEEDJIT and it’s so cool!

I’m not really a master of the web world, especially of the HTML’s and CSS’s. I remain in a gray area where manipulating websites are concerned. But by blog hopping, I find out new things. Most of the time, I learn through trial and error. I guess that’s how I was able to “dress up” my blog.

And then FEEDJIT live traffic feed happened. It tells you where in the world the latest visitor of your blog comes from and it somehow gives you an idea how this visitor found you. It really is so cool! I can’t quit raving!

I’m guessing that most of the visitors from Singapore are just me. Perhaps it’s a flaw in the system—counting the site owner as a visitor. Although I can point out the Singapore visitors which are not me. But aside from me, I’ve had visits from Mississauga, Ontario; the United States; and Nairobi, Nairobi. It’s also nice to see the Philippine flag as visitors from four different parts of the Philippines came: Cagayan De Oro, Cagayan de Oro (the Cagayan in Mindanao); Tuguegarao, Cagayan (the Cagayan in Luzon); Quezon, Nueva Ecija; and Naga, Naga (who happens to be a Mac user with a Firefox browser—See? Even that I know).

But to protect the identity of your visitors, you will never know who exactly these visitors are. Which is fine by me.

I am just amazed how the world can get a load of me in a click or two.

I guess it is true what they about technology. It sure does make the world smaller!
