It’s been a crazy five days.
There were a lot of stressful moments this week, but wonderful friends made it more fun. And I have to admit, these five things from the net pretty much made my mood brighter. 😉 I’m sharing them with you just in case you need to put on a happy face!
1. Sarah Silverman’s “I’m F*ing Matt Damon” video
I’ve been having LSS (last song syndrome) with this for a week now! I just find it to be so hilarious! And of course there’s Jimmy Kimmel’s reply too.
2. Silver Converse Canvas Slip-Ons
Ever since this was featured in Outblush, I’ve been dreaming about them. Not sure if they’re available here in Manila yet BUT I saw similar silver ones by Nike over at Shoe Salon Eastwood. Uh-huh. Those shoes have been constantly on my mind this week. They will be mine soon. *positive thinking starts here*
3. Scrabulous
I play Scrabulous on Facebook a lot, running more than ten games at a time. It just really relaxes me.
4. It’s Always Sunny in Sweet Valley
Part of the blog called The Dairi Burger, It’s Always Sunny in Sweet Valley talks about the many inconsistencies in the Sweet Valley series. It’s so much fun reading this! It’s good to know I’m not alone in thinking that the Wakefield twins should be in serious therapy considering the number of times they’ve been kidnapped and threatened, and that how they’re completely superficial (even Elizabeth) as makeovers ALWAYS seemed to be the answer to any dilemma.
5. Search tool for Flickr photos with a Creative Commons Attribution License
Here’s the link. This means that you can search for free images here, just make sure you give credit to the photographer. A lot of the pictures on flickr are amazing (click on “Most Interesting” to get the really nice ones first) and it’s fantastic how you can sort the pictures you need this way. They make for great companions to blog entries.
Okay gotta run. Hope your week was fun!
Hi! I'm Toni Tiu,
and I've been blogging at
at Wifely Steps since 2003. This started as a blog to help newly weds adjust to married life. It has evolved into a home and parenting blog. I write about things close to my heart -- good eats, good reads, family, marriage, and the little things that make everyday happy.

March 7, 2008 at 8:46 pm (16 years ago)the blog section “It’s Always Sunny in Sweet Valley” got me cracking! suddenly i remember my elementary days when my teacher would catch me reading SV books instead of listening to her lessons.. what’s funnier is that i never did think of those inconsistencies, perhaps because to me Jessica and Liz really are forever young and are the epitome of having the good life. but of course that was when i was still that vulnerable kiddo..and now it’s nice to think back to those days, thanks for the link!

A visit to your site always makes me feel better too. After a long and sometimes nerve-wracking day, it’s like having a pleasant conversation with a friend. I love the positive vibe your blog emits.

March 8, 2008 at 5:43 am (16 years ago)Hahahahaha! I’ve been singing the first part of Sarah Silverman’s song practically the entire day last Sunday (even in my head while I was in Church)!
Im f*ing Matt Damon (She’s f*ing Matt Damon)
I’m sorry but it’s true
Im f*ing Matt Damon (She’s f*ing Matt Damon)
Im not imagining it too
Im f*ing Matt Damon

Thanks for the link about the Sweet Valley inconsistencies. I’ll definitely read it. Even way back in high school I wondered how nobody aged in Sweet Valley. They had so many spring break specials and it was still their junior year!

March 8, 2008 at 9:36 am (16 years ago)Oooh, those are nice shoes!
Thanks for the Sweet Valley blog! Ever since you featured Sweet Valley here I’ve been going back to the first site you linked. And yes, no one can go through too many near-death experiences with kidnappings, ghosts and crazy lovers without needing therapy. 😛
Oh, and this is totally unrelated to your post, but I just want to share that I finally got to buy Twilight yesterday. I was influenced by all your posts. 😀 I’ll post a review once I finish reading it 😀
