What do you write as your book cover foreword?

.: Hi~~   :-)

When we buy new books, or new diary, or new novels, the most common thing we write inside our new book is our name, our phone number and / or our home address. Some might write a very short description, with the day and the date when they buy it, which shop, or maybe they just sign the book.

I had a very "normal" experience about this, but you can share me what you thought about it.

When I was young (lol), I love to read my school textbooks. Sometimes I read my senior textbooks just to get the insights what will I learn in future. And one day, I notice that one book I read has more than name or phone number. It has a poem? Or it is not a poem? Let's read it together~~

It's true right?   ;-)

No, not that one. This one~

This book is mine, 
by right divine, 
and if it goes astray, 
I'll call you kind, 
myself you've to find, 
and give me straightaway~ 
:-) 

So? Is it a poem or it is not? But this writings stay in my head all the time. Each time I buy a book or I get books as presents, I'll write this together with my name and the date. It's kinda a cute warning when i read it, hahaha.

Or is it called the motivational words for people who found it if that book is lost? Hurmmm.. a twisted way to politely ask people to return it back.   ;-)

Before I end up this post, here is another motivational picture for all of us. A quick self-provoking thought about making decisions and taking actions.

If you buy a new item with place to write your own foreword, what will you write?  :-)

Pickomino and Lost Cities: Board Games has Invaded Your Facebook!

The Settlers of Catan
Let's settle down in Catan this time.
.: Have you played The Settlers of Catan?

If you are a big fan of social strategy game, you must play The Settlers of Catan now. But if you're not one, you must learn how to play Catan now so you will get addicted to it just like me, LOL~    X-D

If I'm not mistaken, BigFish Games has already released the PC version of Catan, but now it is nowhere to be found. Even if you search from their official website, Catan is not there anymore. Some rumor says that BigFish is no longer have the rights to sell that game again. :-(

Well, what we can do. Is there any other German-made game for we to try?

How about Facebook Pickomino Solo and Lost Cities Solo?

Pickomino Solo Facebook main menu.

Pickomino Solo by Reiner Knizia is dragon dice game. It is a simple game where you need to collect all numbered dominoes as you can by depending on your logic (which pair of dices should you take first) and your luck (how many paired dices will you get). Plus you must use your gut too, haha :-P

Pickomino Solo Facebook game.
This screenshot is taken from the random mode game. Dominoes on top is the one you want to get, and dominoes at the bottom is your winning collection. Random mode is much trickier than the classic mode, but it is quicker to win.

Yay! I win some gems!~~
If you wins your game round, you will have the opportunity to win some gems. This gems can be used to buy more useful power-ups or energies so you can play it again and again and again~ This gems work as your global currency, you can use it to buy items from the Zabu stores and use it in all Zabu Studio's games~

Because Pickomino's energy run out pretty fast, so I decided to try other Zabu games : The Lost Cities~

Lost Cities Solo Facebook main menu.
Lost Cities Solo on Facebook is also a game by Reiner Knizia. It's a card game, with our opponent is no one.  The theme is to start an expeditions, claiming some new land with risking your smart-guessing work. What work? Your work aka your true task here is to stack your expedition cards properly from random stacks of cards...

Each time you win a round, you will advance to the next expedition stage. I manage to expand my land up to the sixth stage (and later to the 9th stage), and how about you? Come on, this game is easy~~   X-D   :-P

Before I leave you to start your own dice-picking and card-stacking, can I leave you with a video of a dragon? As a tribute to Pickomino's chicken eaten by the dragons and together with the latest Facebook updates from The Settlers of Catan~~

Heidi, das schielende Opossum: Squinted eyes is painful(?) but Heidi is cute~

.: ALT + 3 = ♥
Today is the day you should express your true love to your loved ones. Don't wait until it's too late, just do it now. Express your love to everyone, especially to our beloved Heidi, the minimized-visionary opossum~   ;-(

Who is Heidi? Before we get to know Heidi a lot more, let's study a little bit about squintism...

Squinting is..
..inevitable adjustment to the abnormal positioning of the eyes.

Very very little eh?   :-P

While squint is known to occur in humans (Strabismus), squinting or cross-eyed marsupial is uncommon in online world, and almost none of it can be found to become an internet hit. Thanks to Heidi, squinted eye problem gets a worldwide spotlight.

Heidi, the female opossum with different view of the world

Usually, squinted eye is a condition where the eye pupil is not symmetry as it normally do. But in Heidi's case, she had the *almost* perfect squint unlike normal squint do. Her squint style is famous in cartoons or mangas or manhwas, but to see it live in living beings, wow, it's really really shocking~~

Opossum, an animal-look-like-a-rat-to-me is from the marsupial family, which raises their young in a pouch (imagine a mommy kangaroo with her baby being shrunk) is also an excellent climbers. They are omnivorous, feeding on both animals and plants, and luckily they have big mouth too. Opossums can open their jaws to almost 90 degrees, and when they bite, you can only wish they will never ever bite you.

I dunno whether Heidi can really act, but as an opossum, I bet she is excellent actress when playing dead. Acting is their another special emergency plan because when they "dead", they emit a foul smell while slowing down their breathing and heart rate at the same time. Which means, you should think thrice, quadrice and quince before taking any opossum as your house pet.

Is there any working treatments for squinted eyes? Leipzig Zoo is trying to help Heidi recovers by reducing her body fat deposit over time by... dieting. Yes, high fiber and low energy diet can help reducing her total body mass safe and sound..

Cross-eyed opossum is Germany's latest star.
"Body fat should go downward this way," says sniff sniff Heidi.

Just in case you want to support Heidi, don't forget to visit her Facebook, Heidi, das schielende Opossum, or watch her sensational music video at Heidi the cross-eyed opossum is a Facebook hit, or, can you check for me either Heidi resembles Remy or not? Hurmmmmm....
