how to Power Nap

Power napping is very good for you....it brings up your alertness and energy, although it's quite short. napping for too long will just keep you drowsy. So just follow these rules and thank the scientists that had to test so many naps.

Rules for Power napping

  1. Find a good place to nap, and if it's daylight, try to make everything darker. Sunglasses, tinted windows, and sleep masks all help.
  2. Drink something with caffeine. This may sound crazy but it's not---the caffeine won't kick in immediately and will lessen how sleepy you are when you wake up.
  3. Put an alarm clock on for 15 minutes. If you're one of those people who like to hit the snooze button (like me), put the alarm at the other side of the room so you have to get up and turn it off.
  4. Get up as soon as the alarm goes off. Sleeping for more than 20 minutes will leave you sluggish and more tired than ever. In other words-no help.

Well I'm off, to try this. Happy Napping!

Love motel for dogs

Ever dreamt of this? Your adorable pooch flying off to a Honeymoon in the Love Motel for Dogs in Soa Paulo?? I certainley haven't.

Pet Shop owner Robson Marinho adda air conditioning to the second floor of his pet shop and gave it a new purpose: a love motel for dogs.

Now what about cats, may I ask?

I will be gone for a week after tommorow, but even tommorow i will be (sadly) ripped away from the internet and my blog. (tear tear)
See you on the 17th!

How to tell if Jade is real

Now, this is totally random, but I thought, hey, why not?

The easiest ways to test a piece of jade is to


  • Scratch it- jade is very hard. It scratches glass and if you have scissors, use the blunt end to try to scratch it. Wipe away the white line and see if there is a scratch. If it is, it's a fake it'll have a scratch. Warning: however fake the fake ones are, it still damages expensive jewelry.

  • Hold it in your hand. It should feel cool and stay cool for a while, taking a while to heat up.

None of these are perfect, but they are easy. Well, compared to the other ways.

Now, another subject: Did you ever want anime-sized eyes? Now, you can, thanks to a variety of Japanese websites that sell too-large contacts. Some even can have prescriptions in them...but who wants that, may I ask???

now, did any of you men out there feel like stealing into your wife/girlfriend's make-up kit and put on some eyeliner, mascara, etc.? Well, there's now a guy's make-up line in London. Now, not only can men do this without any guilty feeling, but now you can do it...problem free! All of those easily-breaking eyeliner pencils are now big and burly, and quite sturdy so they don't break. Now, I'm going to tell this to all of my friends and we're going to have a GREAT laugh about this. Toodle-doo!

My kind of shoe and more



Every seen this shoe-bike? I found it on http://www.brianmicklethwait.com/ and thought that this toatally rocks. I mean, my sister sort of "borrowed" my bike for a while now, so, mom, can I have this instead?

The Gymnastic's "Perfect 10" score has been changed---to 16! Many people aren't happy, 'cause they think it's just not the same. I don't think the "perfect 15" should last either. And hey, we only have one more day until the Olympics start, too!

I'm going to wake up tommorow and turn the TV on to watch the opening cermony. What about you?

Hello everyone!

Hello everyone.....I hope to show you some very strange events (and cute creatures) in the next few blogs. For now, I want to tell you how to make a key out of a Coca Cola can.
First, you need an empty Coke can, scissors, a pen, and the original key.
You start buy cutting out a large section of the Coke can---think of cutting the Coke label out.
Then, very precisely, trace the outside of the key onto the can.
Now, put the cut-out can on top of the key and with the pen, indent where all of the indentations are. Flip it over and do it to the other side too.
next, cut this key out. Again, very precisely. You have to start all over if you mess up now.
So, do you have your cut-out key? Now all that's left to do is try it our on your big sister's door.
Happy lock-picking!
