   hiyee
Well they made it official two days ago. The 65 miners who were buried deep in the mine after an explosion have been declared dead. They haven't found any bodies yet but no one could've survived that long with no food or water and decreased amount of fresh air. The ppl who are digging the mine out are unsure how deep the bodies might be buried, but are determined to find them. They aren't sure how long it'll take them to find them. The families are undergoing through much pain right now T_T... I have family in Mexico that work in mines too (not in Coahuila), but the danger is the same everywhere, in every mine.

   Still here
Well it's been a while since I've updated this thing.

What have I been up to? School, school, schoooooll!!! -_____-

I had a bunch of exams just pile up last Friday and I have some more next Wednesday -_- On Tuesday evening I was cramming for my Bio exam. I came to class and found out that the exam was actually on Monday. So that was good to know. Not only do I have enough time to study for my Bio exam, I might just as well pass it with flying colors. That same day, I had an exam for Religion. How I did in it? I dunno. I guess I did well. I mean, I did answer all of the questions. Did I answer them well? I hope so!!!

Well the country of Mexico, especially the state of Coahuila is under much tension.

65 miners are trapped in a mine that collapsed on them. They've been underground for 5 days now. Many people have lost hope that they are alive. What's even sadder is that they were the fathers of many families with children. Their wives depend on them to bring food to the family. The case really brings tears to your eyes. It's very sad. They can't depend on the government to sustain them or give them money. It's every man/ woman for themselves. Many families are torn apart, not knowing what to tell their children about their trapped fathers. The U.S. has sent a team of 10 specialists to plan a way to open the mine up. As we speak (or as I type), they're drilling holes, thousands of feet deep, to find the miners. But as of now, there's no sign of them. Working in mines is very dangerous. Please pray for them and for their families. Their families are suffering a lot right now. =(

Um, ionno what else to write about, so I'm outta here.

   Monday night's explosion
Everything is going well here. Thursday I have no school, but I'll be studying for my exams on Friday -_-...

Something really weird happened on Monday night. I was just online on Monday evening, when around 10:50 pm there were these two huge explosions. I felt the shockwave and my computer even shook and the walls of my room made cracking sounds. I was like "Wt* is that???" I was really surprised. It sounded as if an meteorite fell near by or if a plane crashed somewhere in the street. It was an awful sound. The neighbors came out, wondering what happened and what was the explosion all about. Then, about north east, in the distance, a huge black cloud of smoke began rising against the black sky. Everyone (the neighbors) was shocked. In that direction there are many houses, and farther away in that same direction there are gasoline stations and a natural gas refinery. So everyone was speculating that maybe a house exploded from a gas leak, or that the gasoline station went boom or the natural gas refinery exploded. Everyone was nervous. Suddenly the wailing sounds of the fire dept. trucks were picking up, heading the direction of the explosion. So we were all worried and hoped no one was hurt in that explosion. The black cloud of smoke was very massive. The moon was out, so you could see the black outline against the navy blue night sky. The news of the event began coming out in all local radio stations. Apparently, the explosion had taken place in a agricultural field near downtown. Two large crude oil tanks had exploded, probably due to an act of arson. People from all corners of the city were calling in, saying they had heard the massive explosion. More news came in and officials were saying that there were no people injured. So that was good news. They got the massive fire under control.

The next day, we passed by that road where the explosion took place because that's the route I must take to go to school. The tanks were there. They had been blown open and collapsed on themselves. They're about 10-15 feet tall and 8-10 feet wide. So they're very huge.

   Long time no see!!!
Well it's been awhile since I've updated here. lol...I haven't forgotten about you guys!! ^.^

I've been quite busy with school work and just now I find myself with available time to update this thing.

So how has everyone been? I've been okay. Busy as ever with exams and homework. I have four exams on Friday O.O' Yep, poor me ^.^

Tuesday (today) I only have one class but we'll be reviewing for the exam we have on Friday. After that, I'll be heading over to my auntie's shop and 'work' there, filing papers and making checks for clients. What kind of shop is it? A mechanic's shop, where people bring in their cars to get them fixed. Lol. I like it there. I have my own office and all that =P

Valentines is today too. It's also one of my friend's b-day. What am I doing for Valentines?? Nothing really. Big deal. LOL!

Project Runway is gonna be GOOODDDD!!! The new episode airs on Wednesday and it'll be the one where the final three deisgners are selected. Personally, I want Daniel V and Chloe to be in the top three. I'm kinda mixed about Santino or Kara being on the 3rd slot. Neither of them are strong designers. Giving Nick the boot last Wednesday was a huge mistake. Santino's design was ridiculously ugly and imperfect. Nick was kicked out because his design had some wrinkles and few imperfections. At least, his outfit wasn't falling apart like Santino's. His' was really a mess >=P Anyway, for those who don't know what Project Runway is, it is a fashion reality show where designers are given challenges and have to design the best clothing for the challenge given. If they're out, they get Heidi Klum's Auf Wiedersehen (sp?).


There's this new movie that's gonna be out soon called "Ultraviolet". When I watched the trailer, I was like "What the heck?" The story is *quite similar* to this one story I have under works. Only mine is better ^-^ bwaha!!

Last night (Friday)I got to watch Spirited Away on Cartoon Network. Yay! It was very good. No wonder it won all kinds of awards.I really liked it. I'm a fan of Miyazaki Hayao's work. All of his movies are very original. I now wanna watch Princess Mononoke. It came out a few weeks ago on TCM but I missed it *cries*

Anyway, on friday I also got to watch Naruto. I beginning to get into Naruto now, too. It's very interesting.

This morning, my auntie called and asked me to start working at her shop again. So I did. I kinda had to leave early because my dad went to pick me up. I felt kinda guilty leaving some unfinished work. Darn. I should've filed those papers!! I hope that doesn't make me look bad. I want to do my best there. I'M GETTING PAID, for crying out LOUD!

lol...

After we got home, my mom and I were gonna take the bus to the mall because the car had no gas. We had no cash on us either. Anyway, as we were on the bus stop, some dude who was already standing there asked us the time and we were all like, "3:46". He began talking about cars, something I'm not very interested in. Anyway, I kinda wanted him to leave. My brother and mom were there and they were all like ignoring him. Haha. ^^' Haha. Some other guy who knew him came and began talking to him. I turned to my mom and I was like "Let's give the car some gas and forget the bus." Mom agreed and we went back home. Oh yeah, the bus stop is just around the corner from my house. Not all bad. Went to 76 to get some gas (charged it on the credit card, grr), and drove to the mall. Haha.

Got there, paid some credit cards there, ate, looked around.Went to Sam Goodie to check out their anime CD section. I was stuck on what CD to buy. I wanted to get the soundtrack for: Le Portrait de Petite Cossette OR Neon Genesis Evangelion OR Ghost In The Shell: Stand Alone Complex. I decided to get the Ghost in the Shell one, and yes....it was worth it. Next time I'll get the NGE one, and then the Cossette. Haha.

Before going back home, Abe went to buy us some Coffee Bean.

I'm now watching the Saturday Adult Swim lineup. Cowboy Bebop is on. It's my favorite episode with VICIOUS!! "Ballad of Fallen Angels" is my fave episode. Haha. It's on.

   Bleh
Monday. Again. That means another week of work, work, work, and tests. Booo.

Haha.

Well my weekend was very busy. I didn't have time to update because I was so busy with work. I didn't really have time to even go online, except to get the homework for my classes. Anyway, I just got out from my Biology class. Hehe. We had a 60 pt quiz today. (Oh yeah, I'm sitting here at the library's computers, and there's this old guy sitting next to me and he's typing reeeeallllly fast. It's making me feel bad coz I type so slow....well, at least compared to this guy...^^'...lol)

Anyway, where was I? Oh yeah, biology quiz. I studied for it all weekend, and crammed for it all Sunday =P. I think I did well on it. Not super-duper, but I did quite better, I think. LOL!

Nothing interesting has happened lately, so yeah...I guess I'll end it here. =P

   Woot woot!
Hey, how is everyone doing?!

THANKS A LOT FOR THE COMMENTS!!! *glomps all of u!*

Well it's friday and I'm at school, and I can't wait to get started on my weekend. Yay! Not that I'll be doing something fun, coz I'll be doing a lot of homework, but because I finally get to sleep in late. Yay! This has been a long week. Ugh. First full week of classes. Hmm...let's see. In my next class which is Psychology, I'll be taking a 10 min quiz. I hope it doesn't bite ^.^ I don't wanna bomb my first 10-question quiz. And then Monday I'll be having a 60 pt quiz/test thing for Biology. I like my biology professor this semester. She's very thorough in explaining stuff. Unlike my other biology professor; he just seemed to rush over things and tried to cram everything into 55 mins. Haha.

Well I woke up very late this morning. I only had like 10 mins to hit the road. I thought it was Saturday morning, so I just slept right through, until my mom knocked on my door and told me to wake up. I was like "Noooo!! I thought it was Saturday!" I didn't yell out or anything, it was just mental thinking =P.

Last night I watched "Only Yesterday" on TCM. First time watching it, and I really liked it. I didn't get to watch all of "Pom Poko" coz I had to do my homework. I just watched a clip of it and I must say that the raccoons were really cute. ^^! I also watched the new episode for Neon Genesis and S-Cry-Ed. I really wish Gendo and Shinji talked some more to each other on that ep, but I guess that's just how they are. They don't know each other even if they're family. Harsh. S-Cry-Ed was also interesting with Unkei using his Mad Scrip power. Haha, his stories are always corny and when they backfire, he gets pissed off. LOL!

So I guess that's all for now! ^_^ Cya everyone!

   Hello!!!
Hey! How is everyone doing? Sorry for not going to any of you ppl's sites! ^^' School is already at full swing and I have little time to comment, even post,coz of the tons homework. Gaa! Anyway, I hope things are going well for all of ya'll. It's been annoyingly windy here. Boo. Oh yah, I got like 6 inches of hair cut on Saturday. Yay! It was hella long. Now it's shoulder length and nicely cut into layers and all that. Yay. Road construction is still going on on my street, which kinda sucks coz we can't go out from our drive ways or anything like that. There's holes in the ground and big bulldozers and whatever those big yellow machines are called are always in the middle of the street. They were drilling some holes in the ground today and broke a water pipe. So they had to shut the water down coz they had to fix it.

Well I guess that's all for now. Take care!

   Hey All!!
Wow, it's been a while since I've updated. I'm not trying to ditch you guys! HONESTLY!! It's just that I have a crappy internet connection. That's all ^-^ lol =P Anyway, everything has been going on alright.

I started a new semester at school today. Yay! My first class began at 8:00 am (that's more of a booooo). Why is it a boo? Because I have to wake up at 6:00 am to get ready and be on the road by 7:00 am so that I can get to school on time. It sucks being a commuter but I had no choice. Maybe next year there'll be more $$$ to live on-campus. I kinda wanna transfer out. I dunno why. It's just meh I guess.

Well so far I've been to two classes. I need to go to three more. Hehe....Hopefully I don't get lost since I don't know where every class is at =P I like my teachers so far. They're better than last semester. I just hope this semester goes by kinda easier since my last semester was quite a horrible experience =/ (o.k...I'm exaggeratinG. But it kinda felt horrible since I was new at everything and I was quite unfamiliar with the procedures n' stuff.)

Mmm...I dunno what else to say, so I guess that's all for now. Later!
