China Please Don't Cry
Everybody knows about what happened in China, so I don't have to repeat myself here. Because if I do that, I will surely cry.
Please donate to the victims, if you can, and help them to pull through.
To those who have gone to the heaven, wish the Lord will protect you in His arms. To those who have survived, please be strong and move on your journey in life. When there's Love, there's Hope.
China please don't cry. Because tomorrow will be a better day.

Diego Bauducco - The Man Behind PictoBrowser
After communicating with Diego personally, finally I HAVE MY PICTOBROWSER CREATED! Check out the Zoo post!
Oh my Lord, I appreciate his help very much. He is very fast in replying and solving all the problems.
And he is a very nice guy too ^^
I realised what my problem was: In the ScreenName area, I typed my Yahoo ID instead of the Flickr username! Without his help I would never realise about this. If you are also facing some problems when using PictoBrowser, you could contact him at diego@db798.com.
Once again, thank you very much, Diego! Will continue to use pictobrowser, and will look forward to see some other additional kick-ass features in the near future from you.
Good work!

Pictobrowser
Yes, I know it's late night.
BUT I WANT TO RANT ABOUT THIS!!!!! COZ IT MADE ME LOST MY MIND! I WASTED MORE THAN HALF OF THE TIME I SPENT FOR THE POST WRITING!
That's why I am still staying up late at night!
First, I was thinking to add all the pics into the pictobrowser which is said to be a very easy way to group your pics for blogging use with your flickr account. So, i created my flickr account, uploaded the pics, set them private, then tried to use the pictobuilder.
I entered my screen name....FAILED! Error message some sort of "unselect hide my profile from searches preference".
So I went to check what was wrong *considering I am a new user of flickr, it had taken me some precious time to figure it out*.
I unselected, and tried...
FAILED!
Duh???!!!
OK, I tried to search for some "Help" or at least a "Q&A" in pictobrowser website... NOTHING!! Just some simple steps guiding you how to use, without details.
Fine, I googled and looked for some helpful tips. I found one, saying that do not select private when upload the pics. So, I deleted all the pics, and re-uploaded the same pics, and left them public.
Tried again....
FAILED!! Error message "Flickr does not have public sets for this user".
WHAT?!!! SHIT, HOW COULD YOU DO THIS TO ME!!??
I tried and tried and tried many times, it just didn't work for me! I cleared the cache, tried different browsers, but to no avail. It looks soooooo easy to the people out there, NOT ME!
I'm really tired of trying, and frustrating... what is wrong?
Please, anybody out there, could you please HELP ME!?

The Small Zoo
It was a small zoo near where we had our picnic, no entrance fee required. So I didn't expect much to see.
These are the animals we saw.
These reddish tree branches are really funny-looking!
Daniel & I.
It looks like a man... no, an alien!
Arghhhhh!! Attack of the 'clone'!! (Looks like I'm very happy to be attacked...hey it does look really funny!)
I'm feeding the 'elephant'!
Didn't see lion, tiger, and some other wild lifes too. Well, perhaps they can't survive here, too cold for them? Hmmm... but why no penguin also...?
After the visit, we were very exhausted already *oh my legs...!*. We reached home at about 6pm.
Plus, I dedicated the rest of my day for the posting up of this blogs!!! Now, it's 0050, time to sleep... really really exhausted, physically and mentally.
ZZZZZZZzzzzzzzZZZZZZZZzzzz

Picnic
We just came back from the picnic in the woods! Yoo-hoo that was a nice outing!
Daniel came out with this idea few days ago, as today is the labour's day, so we the family of four, went to join the crowd.
We hit the road at around 12:30pm, it took us about 10 mintues to arrive the destination. When we arrived the area, it was so jam-packed! The Romanian do enjoy picnic and picnic seems to be top outing activity for the families in the holidays, in spring and summer, of course. Searching for a parking and a perfect shady place were no easy job.
Finally, we found a nice place, less people, less pollution and was in the woods!
Under the shady grass, blue sky, white clouds... hmmm perfect!
"OK, start to work now!"
"Ahhhh... so nice! This time got my hubby taken in the pic!"
"Oh, the little bug also wants to join us!"
We decided to explore the woods. There was a way leading us into the mysterious woods. Surrounded by the tall trees, we exposed ourselves in chilly winds and unseen animals. It wasn't spookey anyway, also the air was really refreshing! In fact, I quite liked it!
Spent about 15 minutes of walk in the woods, then we came out safe and sound. To my horror, I felt some tiny raindrops on my face! Darn!
"I thought you told me about the weather report for today was sunny!? Today is the only sunny day in this week! Right?" I exclaimed with a little confusion and disappointment.
"Uh...yeah, but I dunno why it rains. Maybe the weather forecast was wrong. Oh maybe the aeroplane is spraying the mosquito repellent, might not be the rain..." Daniel replied.
"Hopefully!" I said. But in my heart I knew it was raining.
"Oh God, please don't ruin the outing and my mood." I prayed.
We walked to the parents, they were preparing the grill tools and going to start the grill at any time. While waiting for the food, the raindrops began larger and larger, so did my eyes! Looking at the rain, my heart broke into pieces...
"No... it will stop, can't treat us like that!"
"Well, if it really rains heavily then we finish the mici and go back home OK?" Daniel said.
"Whatever...OK." I replied with a big disappointment.
To my surprise, the rain only carried on for 10 minutes and stopped. The sun appeared again and starting to shine to its best!
"YAY!!" My mood was back!
"Food are ready! Let's see what are the specialities for today..."
"The mici !! One of my favourtie food!"
"And the grilled chicken drumsticks!" *Drooling*
The chefs behind the finger-licking food.
After savoured everything, we rested for a while. Lying down on the grass, relaxing a little bit. It was 4:30pm, the place was getting crowded and noisier (many children playing), we decided to pack everything and continue to hit our next destination - the zoo.
