Because it seems that having a blog is a must... But it's wise to have your very personal one password-protected and accessible only to close friends who cannot sue you, and a boring, public, impersonal one, where you talk about your interests, just for the hell of it :)

Site of the week - Allvoices
Which means I belong to the category...? He he. Don't ask.
I almost abandoned it, and switched to Twitter.
Right. I have 2 accounts on Twitter now.
Still I love sharing photos. So currently I am addicted to both Facebook and Twitter.
WHAT'S WRONG WITH PEOPLE?
Anyway. I've just received an email by someone at Allvoices asking me to join their community. I must confess that I am flattered! Someone came across my blog and asked me to join. So, obviously I joined.
Anyway... I am too tired tonight to understand completely how the whole thing works, but it's like a community of bloggers who write and discuss about topics. And I just love it!
Maybe I will dedicate a little less time to Social Networking crap. Maybe I will spend less energy in loooong emails to my best friends Ali and Cecy. Or maybe I will just sleep even fewer hours than usual.
Please have a look and let me know if you join! My username is... Guess what... dreamsaddict :)

Goo Goo Dolls - Iris
Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now
And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
Cause sooner or later it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight
And I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything seems like the movies
Yeah you bleed just to know your alive
And I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
And I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am

I am glad you are well enough to update your blog. Hope you are feeling better.
By the way, according to Wikipedia, John Rzeznik was on the verge of quitting the band days before he wrote Iris. I also heard that the director of the City of Angels decided to ask John to write a song after hearing their song Name. This is one of my favorites.

Hi Kate,
thanks for your comment. I remember you mentioned "Name", the song, when I said I love this song in my previous blog.
I listened to it and I love it, though "Iris" is definitely my favourite. It makes me cry. Both music and words really touch my soul.
I do not like the movie "City of Angels" though.
I am sorry it took me a while, but I have finally written you an email. Thanks for your support always :)
