2008-03-31 - WHAT TO YOU KNOW ABOUT MY COUNTRY??smiley
IM from ROMANIA!So if you dont know nothing about my country here ar some tipssmiley
ROMANIA :
This name was adopted in 1862, after the formation of the national state by the union of the two Romanian Principalities of Wallachia and Moldavia in 1859.
NATIONAL FLAG :
(proportion 3/2) three equal vertical stripes red, yellow, and blue (near to the staff). In December 1989 the emblem on the yellow stripe was removed. The tricolour flag was adopted for the first time as national flag during the 1848 Revolution in Wallachia.
FORM OF GOVERNMENT :Republic
NATIONAL DAY :
December 1 was adopted as National Day in 1990, being the day of celebration of the Great Assembly of Alba Iulia which voted for the union of Transylvania with Romania and which symbolise the union of all Romanians within a single state and the achievement of the unity of Romanian national state.
LEGAL HOLIDAYS :
1 and 2 January (The New Year), Easter Monday, May Day, 1 December, 25 and 26 December (Christmas).
OFFICIAL LANGUAGE
The Romanian language, which is the mother tongue of around 90% of the country's population. The easternmost representative of the family of Romance languages, Romanian descends directly from the Latin. The citizens belonging to ethnic minorities may freely use their mother tongue in schools, administration, justice, the media, culture.
FOREIGN LANGUAGES :
The main foreign language used in Romania are: English, French, German. From the mid-19th century to the 1960s, the main foreign language used in Romania was French, to a certain extend, German.
STANDARD TIME
East European zone lime (GMT + 2 hours). As of 1979, from the last Sunday in March to the last Sunday in September, Daylight Saving Time (GMT + 3 hours). Romania lies in the same time zone with the Republic of Moldova, Finland, Greece, Israel, Egypt and the Republic of South Africa.
INTERNATIONAL MEMBERSHIP :
Romania has diplomatic and consular relations with 164 states and is a member of UNO, IAEA, IBRD, FAO, IFAD, GATT, ICAO, ILO, IMO, WMO, WIPO, WHO, UNIDO, ITU, UNESCO, UPU. In 1993 Romania becomes EEC and EFTA associate member, and the 32nd Council of Europe member. On 26 January 1994 Romania was the first Eastern European state to sign in Brussels NATO's "Partnership for Peace".
Romania's history has not always been as peaceful as its idyllic geography - over the centuries, the country has seen many invasions by various migrating peoples. Romania's post WWII history as a communist nation is most recently known, primarily due to the excesses of the former dictator Nicolae Ceausescu. In December 1989, a national uprising led to his overthrow, and in 1991 a new constitution established Romania as a republic with a multiparty system, market economy and individual rights of free speech, religion and private ownership.

Today, Romania offers a rich tapestry of attractions to visitors: medieval towns in Transylvania, monasteries in Bucovina, traditional villages in Maramures, unique architecture in Bucharest, the natural splendour of the Danube Delta, Black Sea resorts, Carpathian Mountains, royal castles, spas and more. Romania also offers a temperate climate with four distinct seasons.
So..smiley what do you know about my country?smiley

2008-03-31 - WHAT MAKE YOU HAPPY??!
What is happiness? It is a feeling of inner peace and satisfaction. It is usually experienced when there are no worries, fears or obsessing thoughts, and this usually happens, when we do something we love to do or when we get, win, gain or achieve something that we value. It seems to be the outcome of positive events, but it actually comes from the inside, triggered by outer events.
Here are a few tips for increasing happiness in daily life:

1) Endeavor to change the way you look at things. Always look at the bright side. The mind may drag you to think about negativity and difficulties. Don’t let it. Look at the good and positive side of every situation.

2) Think of solutions, not problems.

3) Listen to relaxing, uplifting music.

4) Watch funny comedies that make you laugh.

5) Each day, devote some time to reading a few pages of an inspiring book or article.

6) Watch your thoughts. Whenever you catch yourself thinking negative thoughts, start thinking of pleasant things.

7) Always look at what you have done and not at what you haven’t.

Sometimes you may begin the day with the desire to accomplish several objectives. At the end of the day you might feel frustrated and unhappy, because you haven’t been able to do all of those things.

Look at what you have done, not at what you have not been able to do. You may have accomplished a lot during the day, and yet you let yourself become frustrated, because of some small things that you did not accomplish. You have spent all day successfully carrying out many plans, and instead of feeling happy and satisfied, you look at what was not accomplished and feel unhappy. It is unfair toward yourself.

Each day do something good for yourself. It can be something small, such buying a book, eating something you love, watching you favorite program on TV, going to a movie, or just having a stroll on the beach.

9) Each day do at least one act to make others happy. This can be a kind word, helping your colleagues, stopping your car at the crossroad to let people cross, giving your seat in a bus to someone else, or giving a small present to someone you love. The possibilities are infinite. When you make someone happy, you become happy, and then people try to make you happy.

10) Always expect happiness.

11) Do not envy people who are happy. On the contrary, be happy for their happiness.

12) Associate with happy people, and try to learn from them to be happy. Remember, happiness is contagious.

13) Do your best to stay detached, when things do not proceed as intended and desired. Detachment will help you stay calm and control your moods and reactions. Detachment is not indifference. It is the acceptance of the good and the bad and staying balanced. Detachment has much to do with inner peace, and inner peace is conductive to happiness.

14) Smile more often.

So..what make you happy?smileysmiley

2008-03-26 -
smileysmileyWELCOME TO MY BLOG!!kisses

Hmm what can i say..im addicted to a virtual life..secondlife game!!Its fun and i meet everyday new people,make new friends,so i will share some tips about this game.
There can be a lot of debate about if Second Life (SL) is really a game. There are no mandated goals, we can do as much or as little as we like. Having no goals is a bit hard to get used too, but you will soon see the freedom it allows us. I see SL more a “place” to play, rather than a game.



I have put together a list of tips that I find myself teaching new players all the time. I hope these tips get you off to a good start.



Please spend the time to read the notes, as a few minutes now will save you loads of head scratching later on smiley



First and foremost, EXPLORE. It is a big world and there is plenty to see. Keep in mind that most everything you see has been created by the residents. The Lindens give us the servers as a canvas. About 95 - 98% of what you see is made by us, the residents. Exploring the world, meeting people and seeing what they are working on, will help you with ideas on what you may like to attempt to do.



As you explore, ask questions of people you meet. Many are happy to help out and show off their work. Feel free to explore someones build if they are not around. Most are proud of their work and happy your interested in seeing it. But, if the door is locked or the land is restricted, respect the owners decision on this and just move along and see what else their is to see.



While exploring, you may encounter people that may be too busy to give you their full attention. Respect the fact that they are busy and move along if your not welcomed warmly. Don’t take it personally, building and scripting can take a lot of concentration at times.



Some SL exclusive terms you’ll see…

AV, avatar. Your body, who you are, the appearance of your AV can be changed almost infinitely.



IM, instant message. IM button is at bottom left of the screen, use this to send a private message to someone, online or offline. If your IM button is flashing, someone is sending you a message.



SIM, simulator, or server. a SIM is a region of the world.



PRIM, primitive. A PRIM is a basic building block.



REZ, to create something. If you take something out of your inventory, you have “rezzed” it.



TP, teleport. People will often ask you to offer them a TP to your location so they can join you. Find this option in the persons profile. You can ask someone to TP you to them.



LM, landmark. A LM is a place located in a sim.



L$ and US$, Linden Dollars (in world money) and US Dollars.



RL and FL, real life and first life. Places that interfere with SL :-)



Now for a few tips…



*Chat History. In big groups, when chat is scrolling pretty fast, chat history can help you get caught up. The command to open chat history is, (CTRL + h).



*Hold your mouse cursor on anything and everything to see what it is. If you hold your cursor on something, a tool tip will appear and show you a short description of it. You can right click on it to see even more details of it.



*Right click on other AV to see their profile, you can often learn some basic information about the AV without asking. Fill out your profile, let others know a little something about you. Right click your AV to see what you can do.



*Saving your AV look. You can have many different AV looks, simply save them as outfits. Right click yourself and go to appearance mode. At the bottom left, you can “make outfit”. To save a whole AV, be sure to include the body parts, your shape, skin, hair, and eyes. Include the clothes and attachments. Then, name the “outfit” and save. This folder will be saved to your clothing folder. You can simply drag the folder from your inventory to your AV to change in an instant.



*Removing contents from boxes. Things you buy or aquire often come packed in boxes. To remove the contents, drag the box from your inventory to the ground in front of you. EDIT the box and select MORE to see the details and click on CONTENTS. Then simply drag the contents from the box to your inventory. Once in your inventory, you can use the objects. It is okay to delete the box the contents came in once you have transferred the contents to your inventory.



*Setting LM’s. If you find a place you like, you can set a LM so you can find it again. Select WORLD button at top and “Create Landmark Here”. You might need to rename it, once in your inventory, to remind yourself why you made the LM.



*Force Daylight. While night is often very nice, it can be hard to work in the dark. You must have your DEBUG menu (located at top next to HELP menu) enabled to force daylight. To toggle DEBUG on and off, press these keys, (alt + ctrl + shift + d). ALT + N is the command to make night day. Explore your debug options, lots of things you can do to change how you see the world.



*Snapshot to Disk. Snapshots in game cost L$10. But, you can send high resolution pic to your hard drive for free. The ( ` ) key (above TAB) is default key for this. You can then later review your pics and decide which ones you would like to upload into world.



*View options for seeing land. If you are looking for land, use VIEW to show PROPERTY LINES and LAND OWNERS. This makes the actual plots more easy to identify.



*Want to know more about building in SL? Why not the Ivory Tower of Primitives in Noyo -

or attend a Basic Building class/event (these are held almost every day, so check the Events listing)



*If you are struggling with scripting and finding the Linden manual not too helpful why not try: www.lslwiki.net for a scripting resource



*If you need an injection of money to buy land or whatever else you can buy and sell Linden dollars for US dollars via the LindeX or other exchanges.



*If you have upgraded your basic account to a premium account and don’t have any land yet, you qualify for the Land of Landless program. To get a new plot of land, simply use Find -> Land Sales and change the drop down from all to First Land then do a search for a new plot!



*Don’t forget to pick up a copy of the inworld SL magazine, available at the information stand on the main campus here and many other locations around SL.



And finally, EXPLORE and have fun!and hope i will see you there toosmiley)
