Romance and YouTube

My daughter is currently an avid Stephenie Meyer's fan absorbing all and anything 'Twilight' but the other day she asked me a strange request - can she borrow the DVD Titanic. Curious, she is only 13 afterall, I asked her why. All my friends have seen it, was her response and had argued with her that Titanic was infact the best love story of all time and not as was my daugher's opinion Edward and Bella in Twilight. So for all those people who agree with my daughter's friends (I happen to think that Edward and Bella have nothing on the true classic love stories) here is the link to the youtube video clip of 'My love will go on' by Celine Dion featuring the movie Titanic and that beautiful opening scene of a classic beauty in a classic hat. It is just beautiful. Enjoy!!

Then in true romantic style I have also added the link to another favourite of mine 'PS I love you'. This is a true tear jerker and if you haven't seen the movie, borrow it from your local DVD store and make sure you have a handy supply of tissues - you'll need them!

There is so much on Youtube that if you find a favourite you have to bookmark it or you will never find it again. It is absolutely fantastic, I am so glad that I took the time to explore!

Bye for now

Library Thing

Wow, what a fantastic website. I absolutely love books and this is a fantastic way to interact with others about the books I have read or am planning to read. I have very quickly added 6 books to my library but I could add a whole lot more and I plan to very soon. So if you haven't explore this site yet - do it now - you'll get lost for hours!
This is the link to my library: http://www.librarything.com/home/littlegypsy

There are so many wonderful things out there. Unless you go exploring a whole world remains out of reach and unknown. The only thing that spoils the whole experience is computer viruses. Everytime I try and look at something new or different I get bogged down with pop ups, spam, advertisements and viruses themselves. It is so disappointing.

The internet is such a public forum, be responsible and show respect for what you put out there

My very first blog

Hello

You are probably wondering about the "Interesting people make for interesting times" I read that somewhere and I think it is true and maybe this is why I am blogging - I'd like to become more interesting and using the computer in this way has been a big hurdle for me in my mind.

So if you are out there with nothing to do - tell me about yourself, you are probably a lot more interesting than you give yourself credit for.
