EDIT - depending on the situation of my current problem I might go on a "binge-posting" to either pass the time or get up top date with the things I said I'd do when I got back from the cruiser, so yeah. Just a heads up.

Been having a really craptacular week lately. Im guessing I did something back then and this is my punishment so Im just gonna have to deal with it I guess. If not Im gonna be really pissed off.

A few days ago the internet has been crashing around 7-8 PM for no good reason. To make matters worse 1 of those night the power went out for half of my Urbanization and 1 of those halves was mine. I was sweating my balls of (literally) that day with no fan on.

Now, the problem is my fucking router is not doing its damn job of sending a wireless signal around the house. I'd imagine it would piss anyone off if you know you have internet but no damn access to it AND if the only way to use it is to either kick your brothers ass to get in his room (since the modem is there) or wait for him to go out or something.

Until this gets solved my only means of internet is hooking up the laptop directly to the internet. So for those who I talk to online Im very sorry. You know who you are... and if you're not 1 of those people then whats wrong with you? (I was kidding on that last part FYI)

Has anyone else found a way around that new shitty MSN update that Microsoft is trying to force on us? (people who've used MSN like me for years)

I've tried something that a friend told me but Im not sure if Im doing it wrong or if Im missing something. This shit is really starting to annoy me and its just plain retarded. Not being able to change your username or block people? What the fuck microsoft.

These are the steps I've tried to follow: http://www.mydigitallife.info/how-t.....-force-update/

Today I saw Madagascar 3 and it was simply awesome. For some reason I wanted to cry in a few scenes but I didn't because I dont like to cry in public and whatnot. Other than obvious love for some of the character and the fact that movie is pretty "furry" what I really loved was the ACCENT of some of the animals. Stefano, Vitaly and Gia's accent to be precise. I dont know why but from now on Im making that 1 of my "things". I already admitted that I love for some reason 3-fingered hands so now my other "thing" Im gonna love is foreign accents. I cant put my finger on it... but I just like to hear certain accents like Russian and Italian.

If you haven't seen any of the movies or this one and you like talking anthro-animals you cant go wrong with Madagascar.

PS - Im still planning to do a journal about my Cruise trip sooner or later. I've just been procrastinating and slowly working on it since its gonna be LONG.

I waited till today for this journal since even though my B-day was yesterday my family likes to still congratulate me and my middle bro due to our B-days pretty much being next to one another. (June 11 mine, June 12 his)

On MY B-day mom got me some bitchin' new shoes (GREEN in color of course) that are super comfy, we ate at a fancy place that served food commonly eaten here (Mofongo stuffed with octopus) followed by the movies. I didn't want to see Snow White and the Huntsman but it was pretty damn good. Making a children's story/movie into a mature/adult version of it doesn't seem like such a bad idea as I thought it would.

For my middle bros B-day we went to visit my dad and my step brother at his graduation then ate at fancy place called "Uno".

All in all, that plus the unexpected art gifts from friends truly made this 1 of the BEST birthdays I've had in a long time. Thanks to you all.

As of 42 minutes ago (my time) Im now 24. Now to think of something to do. At my current state (after affects of sea-motioness and such) I dont think I'd like to leave the comfort of my home. I could go to a Sizzlers or Chilli's but Im already spoiled by fancy food due to the cruiser.

Im on an island by said journal name via my 3DS thanks to a internet cafe.

This is my 1st of 3 more stops on my cruise ride. So far its going good but Im trying to make it through with NO INTERNET... The cruiser has internet but it costs 75¢ (cents) a minute...

Well, heres to 5-4 more days at sea. Try not to submit too many awesome drawings guys... It makes being internet-less that much more bad for me. (urge-wise)

I cant think of a better tittle for this journal with my anxiety and lack of sleep. I didn't slept that much today thinking of what I should do today, leaving the cats at the shelter (already missing them), what I'll do on my 2 hour flight to Florida, what I'll do in the cruiser, etc, etc. Im looking forward to the cruiser a little more now since maybe it's the perfect chanced to loosen up, mingle and for me to improve my detestable "spanglish" accent.

Im just a few hours away from taking a nap for a few Zzzz's to leave my little home island. We gotta get up at the "crack" of midnight to the airport. Im not sure I'll be able to stay in touch with the people I want since I dont know if cruisers have internet access on them. Im hoping it does cuz internet is part of my everyday life (and really, who's isn't?) and I just hate seeing my inbox pile up with messages.

So yeah. Bye all you little pepe le phews.

Song aside, on June 2 I'll be going on my 3rd Cruiser to HOPEFULLY relax and have a good time and return to land on June 9 (3 days before my Birthday).

I say "hopefully" because its very rare for me to be relaxed, specially with all the shit and other IRL stuff I've been through, have dealt with or have to handle later on. Some are things that I probably shouldn't make a big deal out of.

Anyhow... Im looking forward to it but at the same time Im NOT because of a few reasons:

1-Our cats. I convinced myself I would NOT go on the cruise to stay with them at home but I cant because I couldn't get a refund or anything for my cruise ticket/pass. Mom says she knows a good place/shelter to leave them but that still worries me. I mean, what if the cats dont get along or anything with other animals? What if they dont want to leave and come home? What if they cant recognize me, my mom or my bros once we are back? That an a few other things worries me.

2-House getting robbed. Lately there has been a few house robberies here, 1 very close to our street and that obviously worries me. Even more so since our last 2 robberies we've replace our stolen goods with even more valuable stuff. Im still trying to figure out if there is any way or place I could hide/stash my valuables (Laptop, Wii) but... any smart-thief would know to look every square inch for valuables on a house and that kinda beats the purpose of what I want to do.

So yeah. Cruise, Birthday... it feels like Im on a roller coaster going up and down. At least the feeling is eased a bit since I finally finished my 1st semester in University. Im hoping I didn't do too bad.

Today I just had a weird but kinda awesome experience with some girls... 4 of them. I was sitting in 1 of my usual spots (alone) in the University library with my laptop when I get approach by 3 (4th came shortly after) girls who've I've only seen a few times through out this whole semester of school.

They just wanted to tell me how awesome my jacket was... my Legend of Zelda jacket I got in Hot Topic some months ago. I said thanks and from there on I kinda had a chit chat with some of them about things I find very rare in girls... video games.

I kept my cool and all the other feelings and junk inside me until they left and I think I managed to socialize (or they managed to socialize with me) with them rather well. Im still left with an "after feeling" of "what just happened?, did that really just happened?" because... well, for starters I dont really think Im a "woman's guy" or something and second is very rare to just get approached by ANY girl... specially if they have nothing in common with me but I guess they do...

So yeah... I guess today was kinda awesome and maybe I wont be so lonely in University? Im not sure I'll see them tomorrow or more often from here on in since I have only 2 weeks left of classes but I can hope I guess.

To anyone who read the last journal I just wanted to say sorry. WE all make mistakes and learning and admitting them is the only way we can get past them or grow inside more. That's harder for me thanks to my anger issues and ADD but still, if it wasn't for certain someone who shed light on all this I would have still had the journal up and/or drown myself even more in drama and bunch of other unwanted stuff.

So... just to make a more friendly journal... THIS.

1-What do you like more? Coke or Pepsi? And why?
2-Which limited/long-gone version of those drinks do you liked or miss?
3-Which other carbonated drink would you like to try again?

1)Pepsi, because it tastes better/sugary and is much smoother/less carbonated than Coke.
2)I still have hopes of seeing yet again Vanilla Pepsi or Pepsi Lime. Vanilla Pepsi the most... that thing was like an orgy in your mouth GOOD. (over the top, I know)
3)Dr. Pepper... I tried it once when I was like 10 at the mall and my bros and dad hated it and even though I thought it tasted weird I wanted to taste it more. I dont think they sell the Dr. anymore here though.

Journal tittle taken from actual episode name from "Extreme Dinosaurs".

If the first sentence didn't gave it away this journal has to do with that long-forgotten(?) show. A few days ago I watched what I think were ALL the episodes (52 of them) on Netflix through my Wii and I enjoyed it very much. So... this journal is gonna be about my thoughts regarding the show.

Rating - 8/10 Dinosaurs that kick ass, are buff and clothed lightly... its like a dream come true for muscle-reptile lovers like me but it still had a few things I didn't liked/agreed.

Favorite Dinosaurs:
1) Haxx - I was expecting to have Stegz as my #1 favorite but Haxx... he just stole my heart a few good times. I just loved everything about him. His color, "clothes", bad temper, voice and his lack of "IQ" were just too damn adorable and cute to me.

2) Stegz - Even if he didn't get 1st place I still love Stegs for a lot of things that are basically the same as Haxx but with a few exceptions like species, smartness.

3) Bullzeye - I honestly didn't expect to like him so much but his "unique head", "kiddish" attitude and sonic screech (which I didn't like at first but now I do) really won me over quick.

4) Ridge - Ridge... he stole my heart ASAP but with only 2 episodes of him I was not able to give him a higher rank/place All I know is LOVED his Australian accent, his species, his awesome way of clothing and his awesome "boots".

5) Spitter - I liked that he was the brains behind the raptors, his spitting equipment and his screaming/way of talking. He also had a strange but likable color for a raptor.

Things that "Irked" me about the show:

1 - Spike's, Spitter's and Bullzeye's arm/wrist accessories seemed to be kinda big or inconvenient sometimes which made me wonder how they do anything with them like giving high fives, punching or even grabbing stuff. That also leaves me stumped as to why they had that if they barely used it like Bullzeye claw-glove and Spikes "arm cannon".
2 - T-Bone's (my least favorite dino, sorry guys) face always looked weird to me to ever really like him that much. I love ALL the dinosaurs but he was at the bottom of my list cuz of the face-thing and his serious voice/disposition which Im well aware fitted him nicely for being the leader but still wasn't my cup of tea. His clothing was thing I liked the most.
3 - There was a little too much "gum to teeth ratio" a few times in the show with Spike, T-Bone and Spitter's mouth.
4 - In the first few episode and some in between I didn't like how Spitter's contraption/tank/tubes were destroyed thus rendering him helpless.
5 - It made no sense to me how Stegz, T-Bone and Hardrock (I think) used those grappling hooks from their bracers. Specially Stegz since he only had spiked bracers. Bullzeye and Spike were the ones who made more sense using them.
6 - Everyone but Bad Rap seems to had a "special move" and such. Unless you count his nastyness I guess.
7 - In a few episodes (like the 1st one) everyone seemed to know the names of each other when it came to meeting new people and such. (I could be wrong on this one though)
8 - In 1-2 episode the editors seem ti have gotten lazy and used past-episode scenes which didn't fit well. 1 of those episodes was were the Raptors take over an Eco-dome.
9 - The Raptors constant obsession to turn the planet into a "Raptor Paradise" got old kinda quick on me even though they tried various things for that.
10 - I didn't like how outnumbered the Raptors were compared to the Extreme Dinosaurs and had hoped a 4th raptor would have joined before the show went off the air.

So there's my review on the show. I really enjoyed it. A little too much perhaps as I was inspired/determined to make some of them in CO (Champions Online) and I did... I love my growing-heavy weapons-wielding Haxx costume.

I finally landed me a job (sorta) after 2-3 years of searching/filling applications for one.

This is more like a "you want to make some bucks if you have nothing to do" sorta "job". So far I only need to pack in bags of dirt/mulch/compost if there is any, if I get called or if/when I want to. Sounds kinda easy I guess but if my calculations are right from what I was told I need to pack in around 100 bags just to make 12 bucks. They pay by the work not by the hour but I'll take any job or pay at the moment as all I want to do is to finally earn my own money, know the feeling of "payday" and see how it feels to buy stuff with my own money. Luckily the place is near home and possibly its a 30 min walk since I still need a set of wheels of my own. I only have like 2-3 days I can "go to work" due to being in University and the very slight chance of there being anything for me to pack on weekends.

I wanted to share more of what I've been through but I dont like to make journals long so I'll leave it like this.

So I've been thinking about this for a while and decided that this could help me sale my DSi since I haven't touched it since I got my 3DS and was unable to trade it for it. Also, I could use the dough. I had planned to sell it to 1 of my siblings but the already have one in ok condition but I honestly much rather give it to someone who wont let their younger brother drool all over it, play it with grease on their hands.... etc. If Im gonna get rid of it I want to know its going to good and/or responsible person.

My DSi is the black one and is in great condition as I would expect since I take care of my consoles like they were my babies. It's only a little "dirty" from some finger/palm sweat but that's unavoidable if you play as much as me. I hope to submit some pictures of it soon.

Anyhow price... Im really not sure how much I should sell it for since it only has 2-3 years of use and its in great condition. Im thinking maybe 50-80$... anyone think that's ok?

I deleted the last journal I posted that was kinda gloomy and shizz because I've been feeling better for a while now. I was able to take care of 1 of the many things bothering me and that's the thing I wanted taken care of ASAP. Here's hoping it stays that way or it gets better from here on out.

Unoversity... I finally got access to the internet (had to register my laptop to it somehow) but I cant really say much. It's been ok so far but that's because Im still on the first few days. Im lucky that some of the classes are with a professor I already know and after all these years he still remembers me.

There is still the matter of my mom (or me) trying to get a car but Im nervous about it. I got my license but I've never driven on my own or alone. I'll most likely drive like an old man but if its make me not crash or anything I wont complain.

So that's it for now. Hope I can make a future and a man of myself at the end of this.

Today was a long-ass day for me and mom as we did a lot of things to get me back on track to see if I can make something of myself other than a couch potato. I finally got re-enrolled again on the University I had to drop out but this Im taking less courses/classes. I might finish my degree at a slower pace but my dad and stepbrother did the same and they ain't complaining.

Im both excited and optimistic but also scared and worried. I know I'll have more time to study and such but only if I focus on that... for that however I still have my "happy fun time concentration PEELZ". They worked for me when I was taking those classes to learn more about Agriculture/cultivating so I hope they do the same here. Im lucky the only side effects are dry mouth and on rare occasions me crashing. I also gave up World of Warcraft (temporarily) for this even though I couldn't play it in University but it was distracting none the less.

Unlike last time Im gonna ask for help on stuff I dont know instead of just staying quiet and I have my dad for that in some way. Hopefully maybe some of YOU guys here could help... certain events however are not keeping my optimism high on that.

Im really not sure what else to say. I start this Wednesday. Wish me luck I guess.

Didn't know what tittle to use for this journal so I used a quote that Skrap and Skor used in the show a few times to insult you know who.

I hope everyone survived and made it through 2012. Im very sad that a few minutes into 2012 my bro saw on the internet (via his phone) the first murder of 2012 on my home island.

Anyway... negativity aside, Im just here to share what the game Champions Online, my love for KFDP and slight boredom has cooked up over the past few days. I can only show it through links since FA has a "no game screenshot" policy. Huge thanks to for telling me about this website.

They are not perfect "costumes" and they might have some extra things on them but that's because I can and I like it. (click images for a better view)

Kane - http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=2ce16c5&s=5

Chow - http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=1hr0wh&s=5

Skrap - http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=wrxbnt&s=5

"Combosaur" - http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=4k8d1x&s=5

The "Combosaur", Im not sure its actually/really named that but I've heard Skor and Skrap call it like that a few times due to what Kane yells when they are about to "merge" like this. "Kung Fu Dino Posse Combo Size!".

So there you have it. Im sad that I cant find the right outfit/things to make a Skor costume.

PS - forgot to mention there are no dino-ish heads so I had to use what I had, which ismostly snake-ish heads.

I cant believe there are only 3 days left till "D-Day". I swear each year goes by faster and faster. Im not really sure what to say about it. I was joking a lot about the "end of the world" date butt now that its close Im kinda worried. I mean, what if it DOES happens? What the hell are we gonna do? My biggest fear in the world is DEATH and how my friends will take it or if they'll even be aware Im gone but "sharing" on an end of thew world-thing just seems much more awful.

I was hoping to put a journal regarding something I've been meaning to get off my chest for years but I dont want to dampen the mood anymore. If 2012 isn't the end of the world like all the crackpots said it was I might reconsider.

In the meantime, I hope this new year isn't a bust like last ones. It was raining so much we barely could light our fireworks.

Just the aftermath of Thanksgiving and Black Friday.

This Thanksgiving was a big bust on account that the excitement of the day made me unable to sleep so I stood in bed for like 7-9 hours spaced out. Due to that I barely did anything nor was I able to play Wii with my cousins like I had planned BUT at least I can do that in New Years. I just hope this year is more dry... last year it was raining a lot and we were unable to light up some fireworks.

Black Friday... I was still sleep-depraved from Thanksgiving but it was totally worth it. I "killed 2 birds with 1 rock" and scored a damn good deal at Gamestop even with the long-ass line and people shoving. I got a Nintendo 3DS with the new Super Mario 3D Land for 100$. I saved like 80$+ on that deal. I also got a Wii-mote with a built-in Motion Plus (in bad ass black color) so I can finally play Zelda: Skyward Sword. I bought the game 4-6 days ago and haven't been able to play because I needed the Wii Motion Plus accessory.

My little bro also got in on the savings and saved like 100$ on a new Xbox360 (which we needed badly) with a built in WIFI receiver.

So yeah. Im really happy and it feels like Christmas came early today.

Regarding the last journal, I decided to put up a link of the other videos from Ray William Johnson that I like both for lyrics and music. They are from newest to oldest. (will become obvious from animation)









Have to admit Im in a "music mood" lately and Im liking it. My only regrets (again) is that I cant find these music videos for FREE download or that it saddens me when I cant find music I want.

My favorite made up song at the moment. It's damn catchy and I love the techno-ish/8-bit theme and lyrics and I cant help but bob my head to the music. My only regret is I cant buy/download the music for free anywhere as far as I know/have tried.

I think I made a journal advertising the videos behind the guy who made this and I'll say it again. If you want to either have a laugh or blow off a few minutes go see some of his videos. They are great. (at least to me)

You know how they say that World of Warcraft (WoW) takes the souls of people away and shit? I guess you can say mine is back or will slowly return because due to recent events in the game Im no longer playing... I really dont want to go into details since its pointless to me know but I hope that I do come back to the game, things will be different or better.

I guess now I'll have to waste away my life some other way until I get a job or get back in school... Im extremely depressed right now.

EDIT - Eh... on second thought maybe I can do some things I was never able to get around that I said I would like finally planting some peppers, onions, etc in some pots.

Journal tittle comes from a video I saw in a channel somewhere. This video is not the one I saw but is still pretty good/funny and made into a "music video".



I meant to write this sooner but when all this happened I got Gears of War 3 and.... well you know.

Last week I went back to the University I had to drop out to try and see if I could get in since the last time I filled the papers and stuff NO ONE told us I had to get a card/mail saying I was accepted or not... but actually I didn't even get anything in the mail. So yeah, I need to get back on the road (or school) because all Im doing at home is just *Cosechando huevos like we say here and its getting old already. (*Rough spanish to english translation: "Baking eggs")

I've been 1-2 years out of school/university and its starting to haunt and worry both me and my family. I dont care if I get my degree late. My dad got it late also since I got almost all my "charms" from him. I just want to at least have it so I can make a future for myself or make my own money. (which Im gonna need for the line up of Nintendo games to come)

Anyhow, amidst to that I also (yet again, with help from mom) dropped a few resumes (spelling?) to apply for a few jobs oriented around the things I know. In this case 2-3 were for Green Houses/Plant related work places and 1 for GameStop. Im hoping either one hires me with NO work experience. Lately no one hires anyone unless you have work experience... which is bullcrap since I cant learn any work experience if NO ONE hires or takes a crack at me.

Yesterday I watched the last episode of that British-Korean-Canadian animated television series and... Im sad. I LOVED the show despite some bad lip-sync and the awkward/corky english dialogue but THAT is what made it (to me at least) so damn funny and entertaining. The voice actors were perfect for the personalities of all the Dinosaurs and the animation was pretty kickass despite a few color continuation errors.

Still, with all that said Im still very SAD about some things which are:

1-There is almost NO fan art of the show or character here! WTF! If you search for it on FA you only get a handful of it.
2-The show only had 40 episodes but I read that a 3rd season is coming out eventually.
3-There not much to sneeze or look at in Youtube for some reason. There are a few episodes I think but they are recorded straight from the TV of people who have access to the show.
4-Best places to view the show are on Netflix like I did or if you live in the UK.
5-People have bashed on the show and say is a rip off of OTHER "Dino-shows" like Extreme Dinosaurs, Dino Squad or Dinosaucers. (Whatever that is)

After having said that I have to admit Im still VERY sad. The show seems to still be amidst to most people which explains the lack of fan art and that drives me CRAZY... why? because I'd like to see so many ideas in my head come true but I cant make them possible and that leaves me with a "bitter reminder" of the show. I also have to admit this is the first time I've fallen in love with a show or certain TV character in a LONG time. The first time I did such thing was for Digimon Season 3 and Guilmon.

Anyhow, for those "brave" or interested here is the intro to the show. You can quickly tell is not made in America and makes it both hard to take serious or understand but some of the lyrics and catchy tune are stuck in my head.



PS - How do you make Youtube videos watchable through journals?

Last night we kinda had a "visit" from Irene, that hurricane that's been going around and stuff. My home island was under Hurricane alert/watch but I wasn't really worried until the wind picked up a bit in which case I went: "Uh oh hot dog".

Im not sure we are still on hurricane alert or anything but it seems much calmer now than last night. The worst we had was random strong winds and the power going out at around 12 midnight. I think we got lucky because in the news other places had it a little rougher. At some point, my dad assumed the eye of the hurricane was where he lives (Bayamon) because it suddenly stopped raining and not a single leaf was moving.

Anyhow that's my story for now. Im glad this didn't turned out like hurricane George or anything... that "SoB" left us with no water and electricity for 3-5 days.

EDIT - hearing the news on TV, Irene came to my home island as a storm and left as a hurricane. We really got lucky (at least everyone here did) but storm tore down some light posts, trees and flooded a few sectors and such.

Really? This shit is getting old and despite not being any of my business it pisses me the fuck off. Few minutes after this journal it came to my attention some prepubescent kid was stealing art and from what he told me is not the first time he has ran into this prick.

Again normally I wouldn't care for this (even more so if it involves anyone I've made enemies with here) but when it's related to someone who I know, a friend or someone I kinda know and enjoy his art it's just annoying and Im sure some of you feel the same way. Even more so if it's YOUR friends work being stolen.

This is like the 4th case I've seen of art theft from FA in the past few weeks. I swear DA is nothing but a "headquarters" for art thieves these days and I think it should just get shut down, PERMANENTLY. I rarely go to the place anyhow and despite FA having a history of troll-problems at least they are more tolerable and easy to get rid off (I think?) than thieving little brats.

RANT ENDS

On a side note... our cats made a full recovery from their operations. Missu (girl) looked rather miserable the first few days and did nothing but sleep and eat but now both of them are up and running a mock the house as usual.
