If you don't want to use Microsoft Paint or (in mac) iPhoto, I'll definitely go for GIMP.Or Photoshop.com is fine if you want an online lite version of Photoshop =]It's really up to you.

Last night, yo, I had a dreamWhere everybody aiming for their bestBut then something just hitAn Armageddon hitting from the westIn a flash, everything was goneLike no one left alive to move onAnd nothing matter now that world is not aliveand the hope? It just doesn't come. So longthat IWasted my time just walking in my lineNot crossing any lines of the othersThinking 'bout myself, just seeking for some helpfor myself but not for the othersAnd now think I should help them outBut it doesn't matter right-o right nowCuz everything is gone like How?Should've helped out when they were around- Jori

*Purpose of this is to write without looking back*

To go away is like not breathing air

Trying to leave from you the dearest

My life needs 4 things: Air, water, food and you

Actually, first three I can live without

 

How can you tell me to go away

if you are everywhere that I go to

How is that possible you ask?

It's simple, you're always on my mind.

 

Possibly this is a divergence between you and me

Maybe we're not gonna see each other longer

It's not you. In fact, it's the people around us.

Hehe, I feel like a douche that picks up girls.

 

I'm sorry but I've got nothing else to say

So on these lines, the words I lay

Internet people took us apart

Unless they change, we're not one heart.

The most billionaires live in New York.

Heh I wouldn't figured most are in like Hollywood or something. XD
But yea If we're going to count "uni-millionaires," then we've got a pretty big questions. Like, is it net worth or just cash? Is it revenue or is it counting all of the properties? (Wait did I just repeat myself?) Anyways, in Vancouver (where I live usually) most houses around West Vancouver and New Westminster are millionaires; that does not necessarily make the owners "millionaires." Because idea of "millionaire" is so vague, we should try to focus more on the "multi-millionaires" and "billionaires" idea. That can give much clearer picture and also is much interesting topic =D

(Sorry if this doesn't make sense....?)

I should agree with you in terms of the innovative creation that the Steve Jobs' Apple company makes, but, as Xarex said, he's business strategies aren't the favourable ones in the market; the dictatorial style of marketing that people must follow is just injustifiable. Not only is the prices too high for most people to enjoy (the products), but also once you buy the product, you must pretty much stick with the Apple company until you decide to switch to another company.Even so, the product excellency of Apple (Mac, iPod, iPhone, etc.) is too overwhelming to stick with another company. That is, even if people try to move to say Samsung (Yepp products), people can't resist the uncomfortable and unstylish designs that Apple produces and turns back to Apple. (How do I know? 'Cause I've been there =])In a way, Steve Jobs is the marketing genius of the IT world, but also a dictator in the market.

I find myself in this odd place againNot knowing whether to go or delayCan there be something if I choose to stay?Is there a road to follow, no. A lane?Should I take my life in this risky plane?I don't know if there can be chance to layMy life to put in success right away.Should I take risk to start over again?I don't think this can be worth all I sold.Too risky, too much danger. Oh, no way.For there is more things in life than gold, (and)There's things that I can't buy, so here I sayThat I won't risk my life on some passed, oldLove that can go and break my own soft heart.- Jori

-This is making up for the yesterday-Half-empty, half-fullThe perspective doesn't matterThe fact and consequence is the sameJust a rational look at the situation is neededTo some it may be good,To some it may be very bad.But how does it matter to you?You should just follow your heart.Maybe you don't know what it leads toThat is, the splited path in front of you.Maybe is leads to a city, a farm or an evil placeJust think it out to figure it out.As I said, just follow your heartAnd the perspective doesn't matterBut that doesn't call the reckless lionBut rabbit that decides to run not rest.- Jori

I don't it's because my school is one of the new ones in my school districts (only like five/six years so far), but it doesn't really have a clearly-defined Cliques. I mean, people hang out with their ethnicity, friends or club members, but all group seems to have many different kinds of people. Or maybe it's because the school isn't that big =D

I believe I must agree with other people... Not only is it an eyesore because of the horrendous, annoying background and not-so-blending colours, but also the site is waaay too empty. I believe this is trying to get people to believe in Christianity, but a few bible verses is probably not going to make people convinced. And, my final note is that the moonwalking cat is quite disturbing. Too much? Nope. Too less.

I was a PC (as in Windows) advocate about a year ago and never would buy a mac unless I absolutely NEED one. I used to think how any Windows user would think: "Mac is too expensive" "Mac doesn't have much program" "Mac is useless" etc. etc...But a while ago I bought the mid-2010 Macbook Pro for my arrangements for a music group. And my whole perspective of Mac changed. There are WAY more programs now than anybody can think of, and there is much more functionality than Windows. Especially for multimedia, Mac is the way to go.I don't think you (or any other people) should buy a Mac if they are looking for a "better" computer. Because Windows machines' specs can be customized, I think purpose of gaming, document processing and networking should be with Windows. However, if anybody is looking for a computer that specializes in multimedia (music, visual art, films, etc.), they should go for Mac for the functionality and specs designed for those purposes.But, if anybody tells me to go back to PC, I'll just say "no." It's quite comfortable to use once you get used to it =]-Jori

I'll say that'll be pretty bad, if not gruesome, to think about. I mean culture is the thing that actually makes the world be so exciting. Culture makes interests, opinions and even conflicts that keep us interested, entertained and even amused. Basically, Culture brings people to be unique and individual.Now if every single person in the whole world speak only one language, there would surely be more negative than positive. Surely, the language and administration of countries will be very simplified, but that comes with consequences. There wouldn't be a "unique" identity of people. It'll be just... Earthicans (as from Futurama =D). Also, no language would mean global unity... I personally do not think the world is ready for such grand idea. Also, a whole segment of careers in international relations would probably be exterminated for there is no use for translators. Although..... there WOULD be people trying to make their own languages and separate from the world. I'll say it's not only unpreferable, but also implausible.- Jori

Yea. Like web_designer said, Wordpress is a complete package and you don't really need to add anything in. Just upload it again and just get into your site. The installer will do it all for you =]

Thanks Sheepdog. Nice to meet you too! I'm sure I'll have a great time in this forum =]- Jori

The moment I saw you,You captivated my heart.The daunting look and shrewd,You are an angel in this part.Powerful is this love that I have insideFor it never occurred to my longing heartLonging for the love that I always hideLonging for the love that's sweet as a tart.Bruno says he'll catch a grenade.Bobby says he's never seen another better.I'll say I'll sing you a sweet serenadeFor the melody will be filled with splendor.And yet, you look in other directionUndermining all that I can doI'll just silently wait for your returnFor then, I'll show you all I would do.- Jori, Dedicated to the girl.

I would probably rather not. I mean, if you can find out when you are going to be dead, that knowledge will just consume and you'll just be dreading for that day when the death arrives. I think living the life not knowing the time of your death is for the best... In some ways, ignorance is bless.But that's only my thought. =]

What browser are you using?You might have put on auto-opening function on the music files.If you're using Google Chrome, you can go to preferences, under the hood and "clear auto-opening Settings"If you're using Firefox or Internet Explorer, sorry can't help ya.- Jori

I think the title "Golden Voice" actually ties well into his skills. I mean, other than the fact that his voice is soooooooo soothing, he's been practicing that voice on his own by hearing a radio DJ when he was young. And after all the troubles, his voice stayed soothing, and I think that's just amazing. Golden Voice.... He is Golden inside AND outside.

A long rode to ho.

It is not mispronounced it is misspelled.

Rode is a length of chain and rope that is put out from the ship to the anchor. A long rode is required when it is windy or stormy. To pull a rope on a ship is to ho from the term ?Heave Ho?. The group will advance on the rope on the command Heave and sailors expressed in unison "Ho" as they pulled. If it is stormy and windy or the current is strong the long rode to ho is hard work that takes a long time

 

Haha That's clever. In fact, I didn't even know what "rode" is XD Well... except for past tense of "ride"

A long rode to ho... I think I might use that in the future. Learning new stuff everyday =D

I want to create a personal blog, but I am having much trouble coming up with the name.I am trying to make it about my personal blog materials and visual art (esp. film and photography), but I don't want it to sound too cheesy.Any ideas?Thank you in advance- Jori

I need to find a good way to practice web designing.I already know the basics of HTML and CSS, but I need some guidance to kick off the practices.You know, ACTUALLY practice and make designs.If you could help me out great.Also, if you could point out some of the great but related posts in this forum, that'll be super.Thank you in advance!- Jori

It's the time I dreaded for.

To go across the world

To a place far, far away

Leaving my dear, dear girl.

 

It's sad that I can't see her

For I'm to get on the giant plane.

Like John said, "Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane,

Don't know when I'll be back again."

 

Can't see your face, your beautiful eyes,

and most of all, your beautiful smile.

But I have a feeling, that we'll meet again.

For in 21st century, you can chat across a mile.

The purpose of this is not only to enhance creativity, but also to be a better poet/lyricist/blogger and to enhance persistence.

You are most certainly welcome to join in this trip to achievement with me! Leave me a PM if you are starting =D

For the 1st time, yea it's good. In fact, it's waaaaay better than the first rap I wrote =DBut like Sonic said, the subject doesn't have to be "gangsta-style" you know?I mean if that's what you are going for, there's no limit, but I think the general public is kind of sick of "pimpy" raps =DTry to write with subjects about your life events and complication for practice.But anyways, good job!(P.S. I've been writing raps for about 4 years now. Still a noob but =D)

Hello, Everyone! It's Jori here. I'm a Vancouverite (Vancouver person) that wants to learn film production and web design. I've been to a couple of other web hosts but I could find one that is both fast and efficient... until I found this one! I accidentally found this website when I was going around trying to find a solution for a problem in b***host (I won't reveal what the site was) and I think this is much better (given that the host gives myCENT program This is an amazing idea!) Anyways, I am super excited to be in this forum and, once again, nice to meet you all!- Jori
