Notice

Since last few days, I have difficulty with the internet connection, still not sure what's going on. I'm missing all the wonderful post of you all, there would be a lot of catch up to do once it's fixed, =.=

I'll try not to miss this week's IF, ^.^

IF: Worry

　　To protect the two new born chicks, mom has decided to put me in 'jail' for a short period of time. I'm not allowed to play outside until the chicks have grown big enough and are safe from my evil paws.

　　Mom, don't worry! I'll be a good and well disciplined girl. My only request is simply something better and more delicious than usual.

　　小鸡孵出來了，我却暫时失去了自由！
　　“Bobo 你可是有猎小鸟的前科，所以只好委屈妳了”
　　大人，那我可以要求妳供应比平时好味的牢饭吗？

New Born Babies

See, two new born babies.

嘻！孵出了两只小可爱。
Mommy and her babies.

小可爱和他们的妈妈。
Working hard to feed her little one.

嗯！要勤力点找食物喂饱小乖乖们。
Got it!

嘿！找到了！

The Pico Award

Bobo and I are so honoured to receive this wonderful Pico Award from the talented Princess Pepper Cloud. Go to her blog and you'll be surprised by what her ants can do. She is creative and full of imagination.

Here are the rules of the Pico Award:

1) Pick 5 blogs that you feel are deserving of this award based on their creativity, design, interesting material and their contribution to the blogging community.

2) Include the name and link of the award giver, so their blogs can be visited.

3) Include the name and link of the people you award, so their blogs can be visited also.

4) Show the link Arte y Pico, the originator of the award.

5) Publish these rules.

I've many great artists bookmarked, so I'm rather pressured by the number of choices. To make it easier on myself, I would like to present this award to those talented artists who feature animal illustrations on their blogs (those that who didn't receive this from me, I love your art just as much!):

1. Domino of 'The Nice Dog', the most witty dog I've ever met, who never fails to reveal his very own personality and character. (He is looking for a girlfriend now, can anyone help?)
   
   
2. Monica Carnesi of 'My Art Blog', I can always feel her love for her pets in her drawings. With her simple and relaxing strokes and beautiful water color wash, she creates wonderful illustrations.
   
   
3. For those of us who keep chickens as pets, Issi and her enchanting chickens spontaneously jump into my list.
   
   
4. Ele of 'Autour d'Elé', she creates an imaginative world filled with gorgeous characters.
   
   
5. Carla Carmina for introducing to us wonderful children book illustrators on her blog.

For your additional info, if you like funny animal drawing, then you must visit Linda of 'Sketched Out' and her amusing animals. I 'm sure you won't get disappointed.

By the way, "Pico" in spanish means 'Peak'. Am I right?

IF: Wide II

　　It's difficult to have fun this week, seeing the disaster after disaster in both Si-Chuan and Myanmar.

　　I'm reusing the "Happy Mothers' Day" post created a few days back for this week IF entry, and sincerely hope that all the survivors and parents who lost their kids in this tragedy can be strong in facing the upcoming challenges. The picture, the articles, the heartache they've caused is enough to make me cry, it's hard to imagine how desperate and hopeless the vicitims themselves are feeling.

　　Let us gather our prayers, let us pray that the rescue team do their best, and hopefully, their best can get more people out alive!

　　To the government of Myanmar, we urge you, open your arms 'WIDE' to accept International Rescue Team, PLEASE.........

　　这个星期心情真的很沉重，灾难事件接二连三，实在想不出也画不出什么有趣的东西。

　　母亲节才剛过，大部份四川省灾区的父母亲却已肝肠寸断，痛失亲儿，有些孩子还被盖在瓦砾底下等待救援。我只看报导都已经难受得掉淚，不能想像重灾区人们绝望的心情。还是希望灾区的人要坚强，好多人都在想办法帮助你们！如果祈祷有效，大家就帮忙聚集祝福的信念，愿救援人员发挥最大的力量，救出更多的人！

　　缅甸軍政府，也请大开你们的大门让囯际救援组织尽早进入灾区，人命关天，救救你的人民罢（这本就是你们应该做的呀）！

IF: Electricity 触电

风走在我们前面 甩裙摆画著圆圈
花美得兴高采烈 那香味有点阴险
你在我旁边的旁边 但影子却肩碰肩
偷看一眼 你的唇边
是不是也有笑意明显

明明是昨天的事情 怎麼今天我还在经历
一丁点回忆都能惊天又动地
想问个愚蠢问题 我们再这样下去
你猜会走到哪里

但请你不要太快揭开还沉默的情话
先让我多著急一下再终於等到解答
太容易的爱故事就不耐人回味啦
像这样触电 就够我快乐熔化

我们就耐心培养萌芽不要急著开花
反正有长长的日记等我们去填满它
在被全世界发现以前先愉快装傻
就这样触电 一直甜蜜触电 直到爆炸

像一年四个季节 都被你变成夏天
我才会在你面前 总是被晒红了脸
像一百万个秋千 在我心里面叛变
被你指尖 碰到指尖 我瞬间就被蕩到天边

S.H.E - 触电
作曲：周杰倫　填詞：施人誠　

Happy Mothers' Day 母亲节快乐

　　Got mom a big beautiful lizard as a Mothers' Day present. But mom, you're giving me the wrong expression, you should open your arms WIDE to welcome this wonderful gift! Guess our definition of 'present' is entirely different.

　　担只壁虎祝大人母亲节快乐！咦！大人的样子不多像高兴，惊恐的成份似乎高一些些喎！想來我们对礼物的认知迴然不同呀！

IF: Seed

"NoNoNooooo! I'm given a duty to protect the seeds."

Heeheehee!
Just can't turn down the desperate little chick.
So baby, here you go, some seeds for you too.
