Write on whatever topic you would like: funny, serious, whatever! (tag it with “open topic”)

OK…this will never come out as funny nor interesting to some of you, but it is rather significant to me at this point in time…lol…here we go…wait for it……………ENGAGE!!! (For those who got that, KUDOS TO YOU!!! XD)

Man…what could be better than talking about how I entered this contest with less than 90 mins remaining…lol hey…can you believe it?! until 90 mins ago, I didn’t even know what the hell a blog was! Then, here I am…writing away! And to tell you the truth, I’m getting hooked in this! So…it started with me asking as to what is going on. I was told about blogging and the different topics that they are given every hour…I went around and talke to a bunch of the guys and I saw by their looks that they are really into this…

A few minutes later, Walter called me over and gave me all this free stuff (Thanks, Walter!!!) after he interviewed me and learned of the business venture that I am currently involved in. Then, off I went. I thought that was the end of that…

I realized something a few minutes later: whatever questions I answered could not compare to the amount of stuff I was given…Let me tell you a little something about me: I will never take any favor I receive for granted and because of this, the only logical thing for me to do is to do something special…I beatboxed, not just for Walter, but pretty much for everyone, because as fixated as the contestants are in this contest, I can only imagine that they would be nearing their breaking point…I for one would not want to sit in front of a computer for 9 hours…I gotta hand it to you guys…that’s a lot of dedication, and I will wish each and everyone of you the best of luck in getting that laptop…and you will forever have my respect…a few beat-box songs and another bag of free stuff later (Thanks again, Walter! XD), Walter announces a separate contest where $200 is up for grabs…at this point, I don’t even care about the prize…I am simply too hooked at the moment to care about anything at this moment…so now, I am at my fifth and maybe my final post of the supposed to be 9 topics, with my fingers shaking. But in all honesty, I have no regrets in this except the one about signing up earlier…but altogether, I am thankful to everyone at BlogCamp for opening my eyes to what will most likely be a new hobby for me…thak you very much, guys — staff and contestants…I found myself a new way to express myself. If it is possible, I would like to keep in touch with all of you through facebook…I’ll leave my FB name at the bottom after this…

As I said earlier, this will be my final piece for the evening, and I am at my happiest in a long time and I wish the rest of you the best of luck again as I wrap this up…

Best Places for a romantic Dinner

Every person thinks to himself/herself, what places are the most romantic places to eat in Edmonton?Here is my top 3 list.

The Creperie is a unique affordable French Style Restaurant. Voted ‘most romantic restaurant’, the Creperie’s atmosphere is cozy and warm with its small intimate rooms and flickering candlelight. It is the best restaurant for a romantic night out and very reasonable aswell. Perfect Little Escape to Europe without the flight.

Located in a charming old house circa 1929 the Manor Cafe is a “casual with class” dining atmosphere. It is very emmaculate and charming old world style.

With large windows overlooking the Legislature and Ezio Farone Park every table comes with an amazing view at The Copper Pot Restaurant! These spectacular surroundings, the elegant dining room and unique menu options make The Copper Pot more than just a restaurant; it is a truly unique dining experience.

Relationships and Technology

As a member of Gen Y, I particularly appreciate technology. I love the internet. I love all the people I’ve met through blogging. I know people from almost every continent, and I’ve been able to share my experiences with them and share

I also love texting. I love how convenient it is. I don’t actually know how I ever managed before. I long for the day when I can have my very own Crackberry.

Facebook? I love it. I have been able to find and talk to people I haven’t seen in years. It makes me so happy to keep in touch with my high school buddies, my public relations classmates, my family, etc.

I know several people who believe technology impairs personal relationships. I can’t agree. I don’t think I’m particularly socially impaired, despite my frequent use of technology. I interact more with people because of social networking than I ever did before.

What do you guys think? Would it be better if we could turn back the clock and not use social networking anymore? Are computers the ruination of civilization? (My uncle said this to The Boyfriend, who has two degrees in computing science. It was hilarious.)
