Ran Into A Lady Who Recognized Me From Her Past. A Screwed Up DVD Movie.

I forgot to tell u 2 things. My mind went blank yesterday as I was typing a journal about a trip to library last Saturday and my father.
Last Saturday morning while I was at the library, guess who I ran into? A lady recognized me from her past but I don't remember her. She was the one who picked out my name from a glass bowl in the summer of 1997. It was about a contest by newspaper staff, not at a real newspaper station, but I've forgotten what's the name of that newspaper. I can't remember it. It's been a long time. Anyways, I was stunned when I found out about it. Someone called me at home. I won the contest! I can't believe it! The winning prize was about a trip to Busch Gardens in Tampa. Busch Gardens is a famous zoo park and where my hubby and I spent on our honeymoon trip. Wow! I was so excited about it! I called my fiance in Melbourne, south of Daytona Beach, where he worked at my brother's law office immediately. On the phone, I can tell that he's stunned. His future vision is right. Before I won the contest, Todd felt we will may go to Tampa one day. His psychic came true. So the next day or few, I came to the office of newspaper in the building on the beachfront and picked up winning tickets. A staff wanted to take picture of me with winning tickets. I did. I don't have a newspaper picture here at my apt. I think it's at my parents' house but I don't remember where it is. If I find it, I will post it for u bloggers. Anyways, I chatted with a lady little bit at the library. She likes my hair. LOL! It's very pretty. I washed it that Sat morning. It was nice chat with her.
About my father, he's screwed up DVD movie I've rented a month ago. Dad mistakenly took DVD movie, "Stardust", back to the library instead of Blockbuster. I was upset when I found out about it last week. It was an accident. Blockbuster sent a bill to Dad in his name. It was a late fee. He was supposed to read the sign, "Library" or "Blockbuster" but he did not paying attention to read it due to his age. I recall I did give DVD movie back to Dad when I finished watching it a month ago. Last Friday, Dad found this DVD movie at the library. Thank God. Then he returned it to Blockbuster. I am relieved. Whew!

News about Castro and Regis

Did u hear about Cuban President Fidel Casto resigning today?  I guess Fidel can't do a political stuff anymore due to his illness.  I am hoping Cuba will change the law alike U.S.'s.  It means a freedom for Cuban people.  Cuban Americans in Miami are happy when they learned Casto is resigning.




On "Live with Regis and Kelly" this morning, I heard Regis Philbin is becoming a grandfather now.  Yay!  Congratulations to Regis on being Grandfather!  The name of his new grandson is William Xavier.  Xavier is Regis' middle name that had been decided on by his parents.  William was born yesterday morning, Feb 18th at 6 am.  He's 6 lbs.  I am happy for Regis.  Soon, Regis will fly back to L.A. to do Oscars and meet his new grandson.

The Library. DVD Movies

I had a fun Saturday morning. I went to a library for renewing a book and borrowing 2 DVD movies, "Freedom Writers" and "Moby Dick". I purchased an autobiographical book about Paige Davis, a host of "Trading Space" on channel TLC. I am sure u know about her if u have seen "Trading Spaces" since 2001. I stayed there for 1 1/2 hours and then for 3o minutes, I went outside in a wheelchair to look at the beachfront across the river enjoyably. The weather looked nice and sunny and warm. I stayed there in front of the City Hall until Dad showed up unexpectedly. He came in early before noon. Then Dad drove me back to my place.
My parents likes my card very much. I made it for their wedding anniversary. I am glad to hear that.

About the movie, "Moby Dick", I haven't read a book about this movie but I heard. I can't find this 1998 movie title that Patrick Stewart starred to play Captain Ahab. I am fan of Patrick Stewart. He's from "Star Trek", u know.  I am disappointed but I am okay.  Instead, Gregory Peck played it, too, in this 1956 film. I do remember one of Stewart's "Star Trek" movies, "Star Trek: First Contact", has been mentioning "Moby Dick" during an argument between Captain Picard and 2063 black lady named Lily Sloane, played by Alfre Woodard.  I guess Stewart have no idea that he was going to play Captain Ahab in "Moby Dick" until 2 years later.

Freedom Writers

Rating:	★★★★★
Category:	Movies
Genre:	Drama

Have u seen the movie, "Freedom Writers"? It's very good and real story about a high school teacher named Erin Gruwell in Long Beach, California. I like this movie very much. Wow! This movie was made from a book written by her and students. It's true. I am impressed at what Ms. Gruwell doing to help crazy and troubled students in her English Class. She's smart. Mrs. Gruwell helped troubled students to understand the situation of gang and racist issues. The students did turning around in their life successfully. I have heard about this great high school teacher few years ago. She was on Oprah in real life for discussing bio-movie with an audience. U will be surprised to see more details in it but I can't give them to u until u sees it. I am recommending this excellent bio-movie to u. See a video of this movie in my homepage, please, if u don't know what this movie is about. See a link called Freedom Writers Foundation in this Multiply.

Tomorrow Will Be My Parents' 45th Wedding Anniversary

My parents will be celebrating their 45 years of marriage tomorrow. I created this special card for my parents by Hallmark in my computer yesterday and minutes ago. Cute. I cut out those pictures from a photo and transferred them into the front page of card. I put selected pictures of them altogether in it. Anyways, I can't believe my parents have been married 45 years. Wow! I am very good making at that card. It looks neat.
See my last year's Yahoo 360 blog that I typed about my parents below if u missed reading it:

Have a nice weekend!

Valentine Day 2008: Wal-Mart Trip

As I am typing this blog, I am waiting for my Valentine brownie to be ready coming out. It's in an oven this time. I baked it myself. Smelling so good!
2:41 pm: Valentine brownie is out of an oven. I smelled it so good! I am going to eat it after dinner tonight.
I went to Wal-Mart this morning. The weather turns out chilly. Brrrr! I am wearing my Valentine sweater that my then boyfriend gave me for Christmas in 1994 with an announcement of Valentine trip in his letter and hair things. I love the sweater very much. I never forget that Christmas gift he sent to me. Anyways, I had a breakfast at McDonald's there. I ordered Breakfast Burrito and a coffee. After I ate breakfast, I went on continuing to do shopping. I was disappointed when I found out my floppy disk won't sending pictures to the computer in the Photo Department. Someone sent pictures to me recently. Also, I have more pictures in other floppy disks. Where can I get these photos from floppy disks? I haven't using them in a long time since few people I know sent photos to me until now. Help me to find somewhere, please. And then I had to do more shopping. I bought a stainless 8x8 baking pan and a plastic container for Valentine brownie. More floppy disks for my blogs. And then I am done food shopping.
I have no Valentine plans tonight.  I stay home but I am okay.  I will eat a pizza and a piece of delicious brownie.
