Ah I haven't updated in so long!^^; I just had a two-week vacation and before that I had to work a lot, but that's not really an excuse.. I'm very sorry for ignoring you guys>_< I promise I'll update/comment more from now on! Also don't be surprised if you see comments on older entries..

So what have I been up to the past weeks? I've been mostly working like I said,  but during the holidays I did some fun things, like seeing Tarzan the musical and going to the museum. The musical was really awesome, they actually had the actors swinging on lines above the crowd and best of all, Tarzan flew right above our heads!xD As for the museum, I rarely go to them but there was an exhibition about the chinese terracotta army" which was really interesting! To think that someone actually took over 8000 life-sized stone statues and loads of chariots and horses to their grave is amazing*_* I'll probably post some pictures from the exhibition later.

I've finally started on Bleach, I read the whole manga and am watching the anime and musicals now. I didn't think anything could equal or even top my love for tenipuri/myu but Bleach is coming dangerously close!*_* I I bought my first Bleach doujinshi a while ago(GinKira, I blame Tuti and Kitamura Eiki, they're so married in the musicals xD) It's really pretty!:3 Also bought the latest musical The All and Dream Live 5th, so there will probably a fangirl post about that later!xD;

Imouto-chan, I got your letter and the necklace a while ago, it's really pretty, thanks a lot!*glomps* I''ll send you an email soon!

But how've the rest of you been?<3

ugh. school started. even though my schedule is kind of lame, I'm going to work it out so I have 6th period off, which will be nice. :D I should probably work out where all my classes are, though. It was kind of pathetic getting lost down some hallway after 6th period and ending up on the wrong side of school, especially as Katie had already been making fun of my lack of direction that day.
I finished Havemercy, which I'm kind of sad about, although by the time I got halfway through I was already pretty sick of one of the characters (but even then Rook and Thom and the Dragon Corps made up for it completely). Now I just have to finish the two other books I'm in the middle of.
For the record, I hate Cuthbert. )

yesterday's mission mode progress

Aha ahahaha. I made it to the level 9 missions! Everything can be accomplished through trial and error with a bit of luck [unfortunately] on your side if you want to get Rank S on the missions.

The thing about the two level 9 missions are that they take a while to finish and if you die in the middle of it, you have no choice but to start again from the beginning. I will persevere however! I must unlock the other lenses and the FESTIVAL function and then afterwards I'll go on trying my hand on Hard and then Nightmare mode for the INFINITY lens.

Mission mode's lack of descriptions beforehand is annoying. Is a '??????' indicator supposed to help me BEAT the kriffin level? Or let me get a feel for the next mission? Deceiving, deceiving.. Mission Mode pisses me off with its deceptive nature. It's unwilling to part with the information that could very well help a player to win against the set odds.

Y tras otro largo mes y pico de desaparición, aquí estoy nuevamente de vuelta con baterías nuevas.

La pasantía terminó sin novedades, mi tutor y la gente del departamento quedaron satisfechos con mi trabajo y están esperando que inscriba mi Pasantía de Ingeniero (La última antes de graduarme) con ellos. Pero ya me advirtieron que en esta nueva pasantía serán más exigentes porque ya no buscaré mi título de tecnólgo sino la de ingeniero, así que van a explotarme sin miramientos. Aunque no sé que tanto hablan, si para esta pasantía me explotaron durísimo. Ellos creen que por ser empleados de paso tienen todo el derecho de exigirnos como si estuviéramos tiempo completo allí. Amén de que ni siquiera gozamos de los mismos privilegios de un empleado oficial de la empresa como para justificar el trabajo que nos imponen. De allí, al par de días viajé a Caracas para asistir al evento Avalancha 2008 (Evento de Manga, Anime, Videojuegos, Comic, Star Wars, Magic, Rol, etc) con dos (2) cosplays, de los cuales uno (1) de eso se me ha venido desbaratando desde que me monté en el bus, y es porque la costurera me entregó el traje media hora antes de que saliera el bus para Caracas, y yo no contaba con que tendría que coser/pegar algunos detalles del traje. Pero valió la pena, me gustó el resultado. Aunque para cada foto que me tomaban haya tenido que acomodar una y otra vez las medias que se me bajaban o la correa que se despegaba, entre otros detalles...

Con respecto al otro Cosplay (El de Chrome Dokuro) ya lo tenía listo desde Febrero. Lo que me faltaba era rehacer el parche y acomodar la correa.




Chrome Dokuro: Referencia.




Nico Robin: Referencia.


Luego del Avalancha (1 y 2 de Agosto), tuve que viajar a Valencia (el 3 de Agosto). Ciudad que queda como a 2h 30min de Caracas para el cumpleaños de mi sobrina porque como tía/madrina era un deber estar presente para sus 3 años. Ese mismo día por la noche regresé a mi ciudad (En bus, y fueron alrededor de 11 horas) porque el Lunes tenía que preinscribirme para el curso intensivo de la universidad...



Andrea Arellano: La razón por la que soy una tía chocha.


* Haciendo un brinco en tiempo y espacio *

A la semana siguiente comencé el intensivo. Decidí bajar 2 materias (Auditoría de Sistemas y Simulación) para disminuir mi carga académica y graduarme más rápido. Son materias poco relevantes por lo que no me importa aguantármelas todos los días por un mes completito. Mi preocupación para ese entonces era otra: que la fecha de mi próximo viaje no chocase con alguna evaluación.

Afortunadamente para cuando me tocó viajar (a Maracay, ciudad que queda a más de 10h de mi ciudad y que era donde se iba a realizar el otro evento de Manga y Anime: ENAM 2008) solo había una evaluación corta en una materia, y clase en la otra, así que no me perdía de mucho. Como a mi no me gusta repetir cosplays, ya tenía preparado otros dos (2) exclusivamente para esos días. Y como no, semanas previas al evento, yo corría de un lado a otro revisando que las costureras (porque esta vez tuve que usar dos (2) ya que solo contaba con tres (3) semanas para hacer dos (2) trajes) hicieran bien su trabajo y no una mamarrachada. Afortunadamente, no hubo contratiempos. También tenía que hacer unos accesorios para uno de los trajes, continuar con mi informe de pasantía (requisito indispensable para graduarme de tecnólogo ahorita en noviembre), ir a clases, trabajar con mi papá en las mañanas y estudiar para los exámenes. El mes de agosto ha sido muy extenuante. Y dado que todavía no estaba recuperada del maratón de Julio (último mes de pasantía, del semestre y de terminar los cosplays para el avalancha) ahorita en septiembre es cuando me está pegando el cansancio. Por suerte ya solo queda una (1) sola semana para terminar el intensivo. Ya tengo una materia aprobada (Auditoría con 9/10 por si a alguien le interesa xD) y la otra se decide esta semana. Aunque igual estoy segura que la aprobaré. El profesor ha fantasmeado DEMASIADO y lo que ha hecho es enviar tareas en pareja para la casa y tal.



Lacus Clyne: Referencia.




Nico Robin: Referencia.


Y eso ha sido un resumen más o menos de lo que he hecho en este último mes y pico.

Ahora solo me falta terminar el proyecto de simulación (Simular un estadio de futbol), darle los últimos toques a mi informe de pasantía para que mis tutores me lo revisen y lo aprueben, y así podré continuar jugando Word of Warcraft que no lo he podido tocar dado a este ajetreo. Volver a trabajar con mi papá que estas semanas las he agarrado para estudiar y/o programar, y bueno, comprar mi pasaje para Valencia que quiero visitar a mi sobrina y necesito comprar telas para otro cosplay para un evento que se realizará en Noviembre. Para este si ya no estaré sola, ya que estoy cuadrando con otra chica (Excelente cosplayers debo decir, ella misma se los cose y todo) para irnos de Sailor Moon con otras amigas suyas. Para el menos estar las Inner Senshi. ¿Adivinan cuál seré yo?

Una pista, de las 5 principales. La más alta =P


PD: Muchas gracias a [info]seikita por editarme las fotos de mis cosplays para el ENAM, y a [info]moviemarathon por ayudarme con mi cosplay de Nico Robin y por tener la paciencia suficiente de tomarme las fotos xD

There's a sausage fest thing going on in town and I'd go to it...but I gotta cook dinner when I get home, and it's not really in the cards for going today. Maybe tomorrow? If I could also figure out where it's at lol.

Doing a partially lazy dinner. The lazy part is putting pork chops in one of those cooking bag things, where you add water to the powder mix to make the gravy and pour it over the chops in the bag, toss it in the oven. Pasta going to be linguine with three cheese hazelnut sauce, minus the hazel nuts. Grated up the fontina cheese this morning, cheddar cheese already grated, parmesan cheese purchased already grated so...ready to go! I wish I could get as decent amount of heat out of my two back burners so I could get the pasta going at the same time as the sauce but it just don't work that way.



No post seems complete, lately, without some political ranting and such... )

Elegance...

current mood: thoughtful

Some got it, some don't.

Got it: Rafa (see icon!!), Rog. Okay, and Nole too.

Ain't got it: Anyone with scruff or wearing a baseball cap or both. Today is my first time to see Andy Murray play, and although he's leading Rafa (*whimper*) - play suspended right now because of rain - he's NOT elegant. At. All. He's just NOT pretty playing like Rog or Rafa. Despite the score, I just don't like the flow or the look. Mostly the flow.

Roger is just too good, too consistent - he's hopefully going to win his 5th Open. He FLOWS... flies all over the baseline, his racket flying like wings around him. Rafa is looking off this match - dude must be TIRED. But even so, he's elegant when he's ON. Beautiful. (am so not looking at his arms right now, lol).

Although I want Rafa to win, Roger's looking better right now and he's all CLASS and PRETTY, and I'd pull for him to take it all tomorrow. (20 ACES against Nole, WHEW!!!)

EDIT: For those not hanging onto every broadcast of the U.S. Open...
Rafa = Rafael Nadal of Spain (#1 in world ranking, won French Open and Wimbledon as well as the Olympic gold medal in men's singles. Has won the last 54 of 56 matches and 8 of 10 tournaments this year.)

Rog = Roger Federer of Switzerland (#2 in world ranking; won the last four U.S. Opens, won Olympic gold in men's doubles with Stanislas Wawrinka) - read about his formerly #1 in world awesomeness here

Nole = Novak Djokovic of Serbia (#3 in world ranking; won the Australian Open in Jan. of 2008)

Andy = Andy Murray of Great Britain (er, Scotland) (#6 in world ranking, first time to advance to semi-finals in the U.S. Open in four appearances)

I'm up. I just don't know what to do. >->;

I had another weird dream the other night! This one was Harry/Ron/Hermione. WTF? XDD I didn't have a weird dream last night though. Bummer.

My fish are acting weird too... I got another one last night (no, I haven't learned my lesson) and now I have three. They're swimming up the side of the bowl and letting the bubbler push them up to the top of the bowl. I'm also worried about one of them... he better not kick. I'd feel really bad. >__<


Maybe I'll read some Raised by Wolves volume 3 until 1:30pm when I have to get ready for work. I should clean my room when I get home though... It's been really really bad for the past couple weeks.......yea.
I'm tired of tripping.
I also need to reorganize my bookshelf! Yay! That part will be fun.

i thought this was too funny not to share:

i was just reading this manga online, and i came to this page:
http://www.mangafox.com/page/manga/read/161/auto_focus/chapter.40895/page.10/

that is exactly what my first attemptedkiss was like. only, it was outdoors. but i laughed in his face, twice actually. it was so horrible.

i just thought it was funny that apparently i'm not the only teenager who found serious kissing faces funny.

rofl.

also, i bought tickets for the decemberists show on nov 6 this morning.
i thought i was getting orchestra seats, but apprently the page expired, and i wound up with pretty crappy balcony seats.
at least the orpheum is so small that there really arn't any bad seats.


party in worcester tonight with rebecca, woohoo!
