LOLWAT.

Wow, since October. Goddamn. Tumblr is one hell of a drug.

All the updates are either there, Plurk, or Twitter. But I am le pissed at Twitter for shutting down Twidroid on my eReader. I'm missing it already. Dammit.

Updates:

* Passed the last semester with flying As. I haven't seen something so glorious since my first year.

* I finally filled out my graduation form. I am officially graduating in May/June/WHENEVER.

* I've reached a point of my life that I can achieve balance between classes, social life (friends, parties, MOVIES), entertainment (drawing, writing, rp-ing,)

* Still don't have a job but I keep on looking~

* Still able to apply to Law School! Will do so before March 25!

Will update later or just check out the links above...currently constructing a

Ever had your body just sleep on you while your body's still awake? Yeah that happened this Tuesday while I was pulling my last Business English report out of my ass. Seriously, what the hell is wrong with me? I still have a MORNING (because 10 am is still morning for me with a side of lunch) mentality and then my body decides "Fuck that, we're watching the Adult Swim reruns and maybe even catch Married with Children at 5am just to be safe...Better yet! Don't sleep at all! And while you're at it, drive 25 minutes to college and pretend I don't weigh 12 tons when you get to the class..."


...I have a comically adversarial relationship with the sleep part of my hypothalamus. Most notably during ANY break from class.

Speaking of which...

ONE MORE YEAR LEFT! WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I cannot stress this enough, after two years of surviving accounting classes (excluding the basics I took on 1st year) Next semester is just gravy, leaving me more time to sleep, less hair to pull out, and more time for whatever...

01. HOLY MOTHER OF GOD, 53 DAY ALL CAMPUS UPR STRIKE... But it's almost done and it's back to class...for two weeks :|||||
02. LSAT is done! That was excruciating 6 HOURS of test sections and fuck my life, I hope I get more than 150 to get into UPR Law School.
03. Who got a BlackBerry after 3 years of prodding and bitching?
04. Yes, I have too much time to waste but I almost found a job selling knives to bored housewives....Yeah, that's accessory to involuntary penile removal. Shawn's body will be updated soon enough!
05. Summer cleaning...I think an old shirt of mine became an ecosystem...
06. Good news everyone, my braces are off! Bad news, my doctor wants me to get my nose operated T^T This is my grandmother's nose okay? And it worked great for her! Rest in peace Abuela Grace.
07. I have found myself between flirting with guys and keeping them away with a 6-ft pole...reasons? I didn't know how much I missed the single life.

Well, that's a pretty good summary to my life for the last 6 months and here's hoping for less drama and more fun!

Week 7//CSI: Miami Fan Rant

This week was glorious in the fact that I didn't have to wake up @ 5:35 am from Wednesday to Friday thanks to no classes on Wed (Grito de Lares) and the DEME prof not meeting the class on Thursday for review. Still, I had the first two out of five midterm tests (INGL 3251 and CONT 4007). The Literature test went exceedingly well while the Federal Tax one probably ass-raped me...

Now for the bulk of this post:

See that there? That is the current cast of CSI: Miami, right? Good we have that out of the way. Yes, I am a diehard fan but this is not about Lt. Firecrotch ^...

When you hear CSI: Miami, what comes to mind? Lulzy acting, dubious science, bad guys getting pumped full of lead? If so, cookie for you, you got the gist of the show! Granted, it's not Emmy material but the people who watch it enjoy it. If you noticed the list of ideas, you noticed I've left out one word-slash-theme: romance. CSI: Las Vegas and CSI: NY did it nice and easy; there was evidence of the love grown between Gil/Sara and Danny/Lindsay. CSI: M tried their hands at romance twice and here are their results:

*Horatio/Marisol but we didn't see the extent of that relationship until after she died. Her death STILL brings him pain and for two seasons, Horatio might as well changed his named to Dexter With a Gun and a Badge.

*The debacle that is Calleigh/Eric. At the first couple of seasons, I could see this but from 3rd to 6th season, they seemed more of a brother-sister than lovers. Then suddenly POOF! Season 7 came along and they magically hooked up. See the difference? No? Ok, uh can you say "fan-service"?

I love reading TV Guide's Show Recaps from any show (Fringe recaps are hilarious and educational) but I've noticed a trend that does not please me in the least: the teenage fanbrat.
I know because I have to reluctantly acknowledge the fact that I was one for a while. Teenage fans tend to volatile yet treasured by networks because of they compose at least 35% of the TV audience. Yes, romance attracts a lot more viewers than just CSI-ing but abruptly catering that sector can cause disappointment for those who have been with the show for longer. For my part, I tend to enjoy my shows without being forcefed a bland excuse for Twu LUV (actually E/C has no evidence of that either...).

Another thing that arouses Twatlight-RAEG from this show is said fanbrat reaction to Eric Delko's departure. Like any show, actors will leave and do other things for many reasons: they might want to pursue film, the chemistry has run out or they are invited by other networks to work for them. But, dear fanbrat who read this, keep in mind that just because one actor is leaving "OMG TEH SHOWS GOING TO SUCK B/C ERICK AND CALLIE AREN'T TOGETHER!"...yes, I died a little inside writing that travesty. These are the same people who spam other people's fandoms with CAPSRAPE declaring that A/B ARE OTP AND UR SIK AND WRUNG FOR NOT SHIPPING THEM ('shipping is srs bsn, dontcha know?). Don't tell me that because Eric is leaving, the show's over: I saw when Speedle died and when Grissom left. Yes, their ratings slipped but hey, they're still on (if you haven't noticed by now, I'm a Horatio fan so I'm open to get the lulz for it).

TL; DR: Don't turn my forensic show into Twatlight. I mean it. I think I've discussed this before....

Week 5//Oh the Irony

Week five has to be one of the shortest in this semester due to:

*Labor Day, which I spent it gloriously asleep and watching the Dirty Jobs marathon,

*The second protest/picket planned for this year, thanks to the HEEND (in which all UPR campus had no class for 24 hours); again, I spent it sleeping and doodling

Overall, I only had 2 1/2 day's worth of class time because of the INGL 3251 professor leaving early for a conference. I spent the weekend slaving away on a REHU 4405 homework that took WAY longer than I planned (I printed it out around 12:45 am last night). Ever have one of those works that just seems to drag on forever? And halfway through it, it gets so boring, you can't help but do something else just to regain any sensation in your brain? Anywho, it's official, my semester will last two more days than expected...dammit.

The other classes are going along smoothly, except maybe the Federal Tax class. I have to ask the professor about how to study for his class at home because powerpoints handouts are great and all but I tend to go more for the textbook to review. Another class I'm having a bit of trouble is Business Law (DEME 4005) mainly because THAT CLASSROOM COULD DOUBLE AS A FUCKING MORGUE. This week, we cover the rest of La Carta de Derechos (the Bill of Rights) in the Puerto Rican Constitution (it's a little more exciting than it sounds like thanks to the current situations these days)

In Internet related news...
Pigeon Beats the Internet FINALLY, one can make use of the assload of pigeons in San Juan...but first, we'd have to give those cute li'l rats with wings a bath.

That's it for this week, stay tuned! XD

Week 3//Early Halloween thoughts//Freeman's Mind

Week 3 came and went with not much out of the ordinary other than having to dish out $90 for a graphic calculator...for the love of God, I hope I get to use it in more than ONE class! 'Cause then, I have the right to smash it. Sad part is, the profession that insisted on it...didn't come to the next class (fuck).

Writing Childhood's End got me thinking about Halloween...I have to buy my costume! Hopefully, this year won't rain (as if).

Freeman's Mind This series is AWESOME; I spent the entire weekend watching it and I promptly forgot about to print homework LOL.

att the penguin who will post a proper post tomorrow

Week 2//LOLWhat?!

By week two, all of my professors finally arrived and gave the students the groundwork, i.e. I'm fucked. The only prof I have a problem with is the FINA 3107 who is super insistent on getting the latest edition of the textbook and speaks WAY too fast (I can hear my knuckles crack). The REHU prof sounds really nice and a livewire to boot. The DEME prof is interesting but I have to disagree on his views of external conception, especially in vitro; he sees that as an aberration to nature but I see it as a chance for those couples to have a child...the rest are pretty good.



This weekend I found Rule of Rose on the local Gamestop for $20 so I decided to buy it with gift money my grandmother gave me (ie couldn't find the Coach Sneakers :( ). Long story short, I got my ID asked...Conversation goes as follows;

Store Clerk-Welcome to Gamestop! What'll it be?
Me-Just this *presents game*
SC-Are you 17 or older?
Me-Yep...are you coming on to me? >D
SC-Nope, what's your age?
Me-19
SC-Okay, I need your ID to verify.
Me-Say what? *deer in headlights* Ok...let me *looks in backpack and realizes she left her wallet in the backseat of her car from buying gas* HOLY SHIT! HOLD MY BAG! *goes running to the far side of the parking lot and returns*
Me-*out of breath* Here you go! *presents Driver's and University ID*
SC-Dude, where did you park?!
Me-*catching breath* Bank.

Turns out the storeclerk's from Rio Piedras...go fig. They said there was an opening for Christmas vacation so I'll be sending in my resume soon! I REALLY want to work there because it's close to home and I can wake up late and still get there on time.

Anyways, I hope to add a lineart/sketches section to my site since most of the work I have is just that until at least 70% of my classwork is done for the month.

Enough blogging; time for me to go back to reading INGL 3251 materials (Quiz tomorrow)!

Last week//Transformers 2 & Ice Age 3 reviews

This week I spent it in my sister's new apartment (err...maybe that's an overstatement...) over @ Mayaguez and during my stay I watched Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen and Ice Age 3: Dawn of the Dinosaurs...

HOW AWESOME IS THIS FUCKING MOVIE?! I'll tell you with the following reasons:
1. Optimus Prime at his best along with NEST
2. Will and Epps banter (LOL)
3. Sam's mom getting high off pot brownies
4. Better dialog with the Autobots and Decepticons (I saw the original Megatron)
5. FIGHT SEQUENCES FTFW

The only complaint I have is that they tried to stuff way too much in a very constraint amount of time (No, I didn't mind the 2 1/2 hours). Overall, 5/5 stars!


The baby storyline wore thin on me so i just focused on the rest of the movie. The Scrat sequences were just as funny as ever, the rivalry between the T-Rex momma and Sid was pretty funny and Buck was a welcome addition. I'd give it 3 1/2 stars out of five.

In other news, my friend's baby was born the same day I came to Mayawest so I has a happy!!!

During my stay, my sister and her boyfriend revived my hatred of Twilight. I actually tried reading the book then stopped 'cause I needed the neurons for actual thought. I did enjoy the fact that the vampire-human baby ate thru Bella's innards then...you know what, look up the SparkNotes.

Well gotta go finish some incomplete business on my computer =D

Boring Day

Isn't life just peachy sometimes...

Today's interview went so-so, got chicken-shit nervous when I was answering the questions. Lately, I've been really bored except for playing Resident Evil 4 whenever my boyfriend comes over (I'd be killing that stupid bitch Ashley every other minute if it were for me). Haven't been inspired to write or draw even though I can use my old computer to draw again.

I do hope to get a summer job or at last a part-time next semester to help out a bit so I can buy an Xbox 360.

There's really nothing left to blog about until next week when I start summer classes (O3O).

Picture of the week...that is a fantail pidgeon or as I like to call it a "Pidkey"(Pidgeon+Turkey) orz "Turgeon" (Turkey+Pidgeon) as suggested by my sister's boyfriend.


Addictive little fucker this is...Made me waste my DS's battery twice from me wanting to be each case through. Maya gets a bit annoying but compared to Ema Skye, she's tolerable. I really wish this game were longer or had more cases but it just motivates us all to buy the other two *does not accept the new attorney*

In life news, last Friday was probably the worst day of the semester for the following events:

1. Show up to the 7 am class (which sucks ass by default on a Friday)
   
2. Had to go to the company my GEOP group chose to from 8:30 am to 10 am but the meeting itself dragged on up to 10:45 am which lead to the next event
3. I had a CIBI test (on DNA and RNA no less) to get to then
4. The Accounting Department test. Interesting enough, I finished the multiple choice WAY earlier than usual...weird.

That's pretty much it for the week, planning to visit sis in Mayawest this weekend with Shanny but can't find the little idiot.

PS; I REFUSE TO GRADUATE FOR COLLEGE WITHOUT BEATING THAT DONKEY KONG 64 GAME.

Internet deprivation is no fun...ESPECIALLY CONSIDERING THAT MY SUMMER CLASSES ARE AT STAKES. Well, actually I was fucked from the beginning due to the class that I wanted to sign up for has been full since last week (CONT 4125 orz Cost/Managerial Accounting).

Spent Holy Week with Titi Conchi which was ten times more awesome than getting free pass to the movies. With her, we raided Plaza Carolina, went to Piñones (huge traffic jam due to beachgoers and foodies). This year's Easter Party was amazing; mom and dad got creative with the food and the Easter hats activity. This year, we hid at least 50 eggies all over our now-destroyed front yard. There was also a "mythical" yellow egg for us big kids that was supposed to have $80 but it was a ploy to get us all to clean.

In other College news, still as screwed over as ever due to three tests, one of which is the CONT 4019 (Intermediate Accounting part II) department. Even sadder is the fact that I've been studying since Friday, no thanks to this:
I am just one episode away from finishing the entire season...then saving up to buy the first one...it's a vicious cycle. Psych is way too much fun to just watch one episode so we'd watch 2 to 3 at a time. Jeez Louise, Lassie; take that stick out of your ass (but then we'd have to ask why'd you have such an object in said uncomfy place)

And yes, I actually watched this...and LOL'd. My bad; it wasn't as bad as I thought and secretly hoped it would be (Bulma shooting the crap out of any poor sap was fun) but it could use improvements. I *urk* took this Goku and gave him a free pass. What made it even funnier were two things:

1. The theater was packed with not just little kids but with girls and fangirls.
   
2. Said girls made the most obscene comments ever (cue uncontrollable laughter). Grace knows what she said.

In other DBZ news, watched TeamFourStar's DBZ Abridged...plez to have more y/n? Very quotable.

Radditz-I'll be taking this, yoink!
Goku-*any line*
Krillin-WHOO! I'm not the first one to get killed!
Vegeta-Uhh...I just had an aneurysm from too much stupidity

well, gotta go, que bastante mierda he comido.

Post before Hell Week

Like the title says; I'm putting up this post before total annihilation from this week's tests. To start off, Thursday comes in with ECON 3021 and ESTA 3042 (which is just AMAZING how the prof. explains/sarcasm). Then there's the CONT 4019 department test that will probably kill me off. On the plus side, I plan to go out after that test if only I can convince a friend to give me a ride...I get lost really easy. If not, I'll try to convince another friend to play Resident Evil 4 with me (because I get scared easily)

MUST NOT PLAY SILENT HILL 2 BEFORE GRACE COMES HOME...
