| | Oy, it's miserable out there!
Freezing cold, icy, cloudyish.
They had to cancel Planet Wisdom because of the ice :( . But the good news is it was moved to another town and another time that is still close enough that my youth group and I can still go :) !
So come this Friday, if the weather will co-operate, away we shall go!
But enough of the future, let us speak of today and the things past! I've been wandering around the net a lot. Well some anyway. I came across a nice blog with a very mature young bloggee. some stuff she said got me thinking and I think I'm going to be checking in on that blog often. Check it out at http://spunkyjunior.blogspot.com/ .
I also ran across, lol, the Numa Numa video. A hilarious little thing that has apparently become one of those forwarded-to-no-end-I-have-received-this-27-times-and-it's-still-funny viral videos. You'll get a kick out of it I think: http://www.break.com/index/numanuma.html . The original song in that vid was called "Dragostea Din Tei" and was preformed by a Romanian band called O-ZONE. The song was incredibly popular. Probably almost as much as the video :D lol. Here are some stats of Dragostea Din Tei:
* Over 8 million singles sold throughout the world so far
* #1 hit Worldwide
* Billboard Euro chart: #1 for 13 weeks
* The song has been #1 in 27 Countries
* The Romanian title is “Dragostea din Tei” and the English Title is “Mai Ai Hee”
* The song has been recorded in 12 languages and has been covered 29 times!!
Selected Europe charts positions:
Spain: #1
France: #1 (on to way to 1.000.000 copies!) diamond record
Belgium: #1 (Platinum) 25.000 copies
Romania: # 1 both Album and single have reached platinum, more than 100,000 copies sold
Germany: #1 (Platinum status) over 500,000 copies
Austria: #1 (Gold status)
Switzerland: #1
Holland: #1
UK: #3 was the highest position
Italy: #17 (old position of April, now we are working the 2° single)
Norway: #1 Double-Platinum (around 25,000 copies)
Denmark: #1
Russia: #1
Ukraine: #1
These stats, the original, and altered videos are on www.garybrolsma.net . The vid I linked to, up the page, was actually altered from the original but I like it better :P . Oh, credit for these stats in particular goes to Wikipedia, which were then posted on garry's site.
Other than that I have been studying for my driver's test. It's pretty much all just common sense but there are a few numbers I will have to memorize.
Oh yea, and my younger bro is going to good ole "testing" tomorrow. You know, bubble-in-the-answer testing. So I'd appreciate it if any Christians who may or may not drop in here would pray for him :) .
Which reminds me (yes, yes I'm rattling on now, humor me, lol), about prayer, this little girl named candace, ( http://www.candacejoy.org/ ) She needs a lot of it...
We so often ignore how blessed we are by having the health we do.
well, off into the sunset I ride! Wait, the sun is already down... Hmm... O well, off into the darkness I ride then! |
