OMG! Could This Be Happening!

OMG! I can not believe this is really happening! We received a letter today. Ana was invited to study in England & France for the summer of 2011 by the People to People Student Ambassador Programs. I signed up for a local info meeting on oct 30th to learn more info about it. I hope this opportunity is for real and that I would be able to afford it. I hope we are both couragous enough to let go and take a chance on this wonderful opportunity. Ana has never been very far & alone from me especially to a foreign lands, that I never visited. I had wished to go to England someday and even wanted to study abroad while I was in college. I couldn't and can't afford it. We have never gone on a vacation or visit other places here in the states or outside of it. So it really would be a great opportunity for her all around. We'll see... we won't get our hopes up high just yet!

Thank you...

Thank you for your welcomes and informations. I will defintely be following you from time to time. Eventhough I have a busy schedule, I have to get back into writing. (My vocabulary & grammar is a little bit rustic :/ ) Hopefully I keep writing. :) Say, do you all put your blogs on publicly or private. I am afraid that if I put it private than the only person who will be reading my blogs is me. I think they said something about access control but I can't find it. :/ I believe I have to start all over again learning how to navigate here. There used to be more layout designs, which they were nice. Oh, well! Thanks again for all your comments & informations. It would take time & patience to adjust here. lol! :) ..... I miss my faces. :(

Too Many Steps

I don't get it?.... Why so many steps to just post a blog? Why go through so much? I wanted to create a space here so my friends, from MSN/ Windows Live, could try to connect with me and I connect with them.
First of all, blogspot do not have a way to connect with people, you want to keep in contract from another space. So I have to notification them myself that I am here... and of course, I have to make sure I have some king of website or blog link for them to find me - whatever and wherever that is. There is no search engine or find button here to look for them and vise versa. So I have been going around and around.
One person recently emailed me where I could find her - don't know how she got her website link to her space here? Interesting... I made sure I became her "follower" - such a cult word or one of those constantly annoying advertisement postcard to subscribe to a maganize or newspaper. Now we have to "subscribe" to "follow" a friend. :/ ... Or is it they can't use the words friends, neighbors, guests, invite, support, contributation, constituents of one's space, or company because other website spaces are using those words that they fear a lawsuit or they have a lack of imagination of the usage of words? :/
Well, at least I have two as my "followers". :)
I wanted to renamed my blogspace. I named it Lady Grace for now because I wanted people I know from another space to find me here easier. :/ I don't free this space is a Lady Grace space. It's not friendly/ easy use or meeting people - so no use renaming this space like the one I have. It is more like a publishing writings - not personal thoughts & experience and more like a thrift store - setting up design, waiting for people, and displaying your work. It's weird! Although, it is a nice place for this sort of internet activities. :) When I blog my entrepuer business, I had amazing blog, designs, and display.
I changed my blogspace here from entrepeur business to personal website space now. So I am creating a blog.... again, does it need to have so much steps and take up time. I believe too much steps is confusing. My title, Too Many Steps, came up when I was going through the designing my blog - not have written it yet. Anyway, I gave it a title, create a link so my friends would find it easier, and afterwards took me to design. Aren't you suppose to write, edit, and then design your blog? Right.... how would I get the feeling of designing my blog if I have not written anything yet? :/ Don't they have to relate together? Okay.... so I pick a design that looks - well, technical. Then I added a bar of videos (I only wanted one!), of The Art of Noise, in particular, Paranoima. For all who don't know me well, I could be very sarcastic especially when another's idiocy come into play creatingsocial injustice or hardship to other.
Was I finished? No. I went to layout so I could edit the blog - not the space on how I would want it to look. WHERE is the place I could FINALLY blog... or does blog have a different meaning and way here? Round and round I go until I look up and saw "Posting." I figure, "What the heck! I sure I have time to navigate my way around here. (YEAH, RIGHT!) Lucky, I did came here and now am ending my blog. Hopefully it would be posted and be able to be read. Too many steps!
