To go or not to go…

Posted: October 25, 2010 in Random

THAT is the question.

My parents bought their airplane tickets to Brazil, the only one left is me. I had plans to go to take winter classes this winter, but things may change. If I don’t go my cousin will probably hate me for my entire life.

Pros and cons, I need to make a list.

Although a big pro is going to Brazil, never been there, would love to go. Big con is it’s not the city I’d rather go to, I mean sure..I’ve never been there but it’s kinda in the country..so I’m not sure how that’d work out. I’m trying to convince my parents if we can go to São Paulo, Brazil. It’s not TOO far from where we’re going yet nonetheless it’s pretty far. Oh did I mention this whole little trip is costing us about $2K PER person JUST for airfare?

It’s amazing how these are the questions that fill my head when I should be worrying about more IMPORTANT things. Sigh. Two exams coming up. Tomorrow is my first one, am I ready? Meh, it’s math. Can’t be too hard. (watch me eat my own words..) Physics is the one I’m really worried about. Anyway time for lunch!

Swamped

Posted: October 19, 2010 in Random

Lately..been SWAMPED with work. Not just school work, oh no. It goes further than that. I’ve recently put myself in charge of a couple of projects, which to be quite honest, I’m excited about. But it’s a lot of work, being organized is the only thing that can save me from going insane. I’ve got of several completely distinct projects but nonetheless they’re exciting!

In other news, my last post about Brazil? Guess what. My dad is already checking how much it costs us to go to Brazil. I wish we’d go during Summer. As in USA summer..and over there it’d be winter. I’m going to have to leave my precious winter for summer?! …not cool.
Although thinking about it, I think I had some plans over the winter vacations so we’ll see how that turns out and that interferes with the whole Brazil wedding.

Brazil

Posted: October 11, 2010 in Random

Today Linkin Park plays in Brazil..oddly enough I found out that my cousin wants to get married there. Confirmed. She’s been saying she wanted to get married in South America, but her fiancee is from Brazil so I guess that’s that.

I don’t want to go. My friend offered so I could go with her to LA, much rather go there. I’m against what my cousin is doing, not against Brazil. Wedding will be likely in December..awesome I get to miss winter and go to stupid summer. If you don’t know already, I HATE SUMMER, I like the summer vacations. But I hate the summer weather. I wish I could say no and not go..then again even if I have the best excuse in the world my cousin would hate me. She’s 18 years old and getting married. She hasn’t grown up yet, but you know whatever, it’s her life.

“The Social Network”

Posted: October 9, 2010 in Movies

I saw it yesterday with my friend, originally we were supposed to study..didn’t that go great? Library closes at 6PM, when we were trying to decide what time..it was already 5:50PM, LOL. So we were going to go to Starbucks to study..we got there and she didn’t feel like studying, awesome because I finally got over not wanting to study and I was ready to hit the books. So I got a frappuccino, (so GOOD) and we talked for a while, I was trying to convince her to study but no. So anyway we decided to go to the movie theater. We were deciding between Life As We Know It and The Social Network, oh and this other movie my friend wanted to watch but I can’t remember the name (to be honest I have never heard of it before) I looked at the ratings for all the movies and surprisingly enough The Social Network got 97% of approval, I know the story of Facebook isn’t really that appealing but in all honesty it was actually a really good movie. It surpises me that the person that created Facebook was a sophomore in Harvard University, now it’s based on true events. BASED. Meaning that there’s parts in the movie that never happened, so I don’t know how much is true nor how much is false but the movie itself was excellent the guy, the founder of Facebook though is a bit of a douche, LOL.
I won’t give away that much but if you’ve been thinking of seeing it, watch it. It’s good my rating: 4.5/5.

First let me say that I LOVE this song, I knew it was going to be a single, what I didn’t know is that we’d get the video so soon!! :D

The single comes out tomorrow, I suspect on iTunes, Amazon, etc.
Thirty second preview here.

Thank you, Mike, Doug, and Stryker

Since last Friday, have been the BEST.
Let me explain..with each tweet, you’ll see why. I give a short explanation, but in Mike’s case, it was an entire post, lol.

This has all been explained, refer to this post. This tweet made me …well go crazy, lol. Read the post and I go into more detail..

Doug

While waiting for Mr. Shinoda to give us more info over the whole DM / send a story or question to him so he could call them and answer them (he was pre-recording for iheartradio), I noticed that Mike was following Doug Robb, from Hoobastank. I LOVE HOOBASTANK! So I mentioned to Mike and said this:

@m_shinoda random note, I see you’re following @HoobaDoug, AWESOME! :D tour with Hoobastank?! again that is x]

Later that day Doug replied to me! As you can see above, obviously I would LOVE another tour with Linkin Park and Hoobastank, or else I would have not mentioned it. I saw Hoobastank about two times, they were amazing! I got front row the second Hoobastank concert I went to, the first I got 2nd/3rd row, I was new to concerts then, lol. I saw Linkin Park about three times, seeing them both?! WOULD LOVE THAT.

Stryker

Because Mike replied to me, I promised him that I would #FF him and Styker every single Friday. So, today, since it’s Friday I #FF’d both of them, a little late, (give me a break I had an exam today and was studying all day). My tweet was this:

Oh shit i almost forgot. #FF @m_shinoda @TedStryker @LinkinPark @ChesterBe @phoenixlp @joehahnlp :b

Well shortly after Ted Stryker replied to me! So generous, that made me immediately smile! I was a bit mad at something over here at my house then I checked twitter to see what was up and saw a reply from him! THANKS<3

In conclusion best days ever! So overwhelmed! It's amazing how a little mention, a retweet, or a reply can make one feel so happy. Thank you so much, Mike, Doug, and Ted. YOU ARE THE BEST.

House / Life Unexpected

Posted: October 1, 2010 in TV

Two shows I’ve been waiting for this fall.

House

This season is different, I’ve got to admit I miss the old cast. I don’t like 13, never really did Taub is alright–nothing really against him (other than the whole cheating thing). But 13..ugh DON’T like her. So, in this season House and Cuddy hook up, weird..but okay it’s alright, the past two episodes were good, the last one however (episode 2) made me cry at the end..so sad. I won’t say much about House because I know many aren’t up to date with the episodes, I don’t want to spoil it too much. But yeah, look at the promotional picture above..kinda weird isn’t it? LOOK WHERE CHASE’S HAND IS….gah! don’t like it!! LOL at Taub, he’s just enjoying life..I wonder if any marital problems will arise this season, I believe so, I didn’t like him for doing what he did last season..having an open marriage? WTF and then telling his wife he won’t do anything?! But…he kissed the other woman?! Gah, why, Taub. WHY. Though if you look at his ring..he has it on, but he’s happy could this mean the troubles are over? Or are they just beginning? And I want to know Wilson has such a worried look x_x Wilson<3 Okay, gonna stop analyzing this picture, LOL.

Life Unexpected

Well this is a new show, on it’s second season. So since it’s fairly new, I’ll tell you what it’s about. Baze and Cate had a kid (age 16 I believe), although Baze never knew about this. One day, Lux (the kid) went to see Baze because she was applying for emancipation, or something of that sort. She wanted to live without a guardian, but since she was underage she had to get signatures (approval) from her birth parents. So she went to Baze, it shocked him but he told her that her mom was Cate, at the time Cate was a radio host. Well to keep things short..(and by that I mean really short) Cate and Baze spent time together (Cate was engaged to another guy, Ryan) and Baze fell in love with Cate, although he ignored this up to some point he finally admitted his feelings for Cate..after she got married, and get this. Cate almost admitted her feelings but he denied being in love, so she didn’t. Now Baze blames himself, and well he’s trying to move one..yep. Basically that’s where we left on and we’re starting a new season! I’ve got to admit the whole drama between Cate kinda annoyed me but eh. Love the show! TEAM BAZE! FTW!

I also watch a few other shows but those have started (or ended their season) and are still going since well for a while now these two just started a while ago! <3
