Interesting...: A Chinese Wedding Belief

Image and information from Tumblr

I thought this was so sweet :')


Why the wedding ring is worn on the fourth finger: The Chinese give a beautiful explanation to this. The thumb represents your parents. Theindex finger represents your siblings. The middle finger represents yourself. The ring finger represents your life partner. The little finger/pinky represents your children. Hold your hands together like the picture. Join your middle fingers back-to-back, and the remaining fingers tip-to-tip. Now, try to separate your thumbs. They will separate because your parents are not destined to live with you forever. Rejoin your thumbs and separate your index fingers. They will separate because your siblings will have their own families and lead their own lives. Rejoin your index fingers and separate your little fingers/pinkies. They will separate because your children will grow up, get married, and settle down. Rejoin your little fingers/pinkies and try to separate your ring finger. They will not be able to separate because your life partner is meant to be with you throughout your entire life, through thick and thin.

Interesting...: 5 Doodling Websites to Unleash the Artist Within

Hi!
These are 5 of my favourite interactive doodling websites I have discovered recently ☺.



Imitating the art of Jackson Pollock, the link opens to a blank page and the movement of the mouse causes paint to spill everywhere.


Created by Peter Blaskovic apart of his project 'I Am Artist', it enables you to paint with fire. This is one of my favourite sites ☺! Focusing on one area causes the 'virtual fire' to become smaller.
Your artowork also saves in wallpaper form! *Yay*


This awesome site allows you to draw or write I'm guessing like... Spiderman!
Or you can upload your own image and draw over it. I felt like a real artist after drawing Millenium :)
*uploaded*

 *scribble scribble
*saved andddd bam!

Isn't he darling! Yep.
You can also adjust all sorts of things on there! Size, fuzziness, colour... It's awesome!

These circles follow your mouse around in which ever pattern you choose. The downside is that you have no choice of colour scheme.... Took me a while to get a screenshot without a poop colour in it.


With each drag, a symmetrical stroke is drawn next to it/across it/23932 times depending on which one option you choose. I tried to make mine as pretty as possible and to measure up with the uploaded ones in the gallery.. But that wasn't possible :( So the one above is by someone else.... Heh.

Interesting...: Baby Seal Intruder!

Awwww this is the cutest article I've ever read!

A baby seal enters a house through a cat door and is found sound asleep on the couch.

Picture taken from linked article.

I was squealing 'Awwwwwwwwwwwwww' the whole time reading the article!
