2008 was an okay year for me. It wasn’t fantastic, but it wasn’t awful. I’ve made a few wonderful friends who I’m very grateful to have in my life. My relationship with my parents has improved a lot, I’ve been spending more time with them which I like.

I’ve also had my low-points, but overall, this year has thought me a few things that I will treasure forever. Friends, Lessons, Surprises, Sickness, I’ve had it all this year. I’m really excited for 2009, I’m anxious to see what it will bring. I hope it is a productive and great year.

I won’t make Resolutions for the New Year, I just hope I become a better human being, a better daughter, better sister and better friend.

I wish you all the best this New Year, I hope it is a successful and happy year for all of you.

How was your 2008? What do you hope about 2009?

Just wanted to make a quick post to wish you all a Merry Christmas and I hope that everybody is having a safe and happy holiday!

It feels so good to finish another semester of university. This semester was probably the worst one yet, I hope the next one is better.

I’ve been playing Xbox360 all the time, and I’ve been taking some time to myself, I’ve been trying not to be on the computer 24/7.

I just wanted to make a quick blog to let you know I’m alive. I’ll write a better blog soon.

Finals are near, and I’m drowned with work. Some of my professors aren’t going to give a test, but they did ask for research papers, proyects, etc. I have one exam this week and the rest are the other week. It’s such a stressful time, I’m sure most of you agree.

I probably won’t be blogging or active on the web for a while until I finish this chaos, I can’t wait to finish, get off this huge weight I have on my shoulders and enjoy Christmas, it’s my favorite time of year so I really want to enjoy it.

I’ve been meaning to buy an Xbox 360 for a long time, and I finally bought it on Friday. I’ve been playing all weekend, I really love it. One of my good friends lend me GTA IV so I’ve been playing like crazy. I need to buy a couple of games, I’ll probably wait until Christmas to buy a few because I’m broke, hehe.

If any of you have an Xbox 360 and want to be friends, then write your gamertag in a comment or send me an email. I would love to have new friends!

Do you own an Xbox 360? What’s your favorite game?

I am so thankful for having such a wonderful family, I’m glad that the relationship with my family grows closer each year. I’m thankful for my friends, who are my support and the people who make me smile; I’m thankful for living a nice, healthy life and being able to go to university to become a professional.

There are so many things I’m thankful for, but the most important things are written above.

Happy Thanksgiving Day!

What are you thankful for?

I saw Twilight on Saturday, I was gonna go on Thursday but my car is having some problems so it’s still getting fixed. I went with one of my best friends, I hooked him with Twilight months ago. Let me say, I was dazzled by the movie. It was a great adaptation of the book, it was also very funny at parts, which I was not expecting. I’m very excited that they will continue with New Moon and I want to see what they come up with, I think it will be a lot more complicated to film than this one.

Oh, Robert Pattinson is so attractive. I loved him in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire and I was so excited that he was going to play Edward. He’s great, lovable and charming. I love his interviews, he’s so awkward but so funny at the same time.

I’m so obsessed with the Twilight series, I can’t help it. I’ll try not to post about it until the ‘New Moon’ movie comes along, hehe.

Did you see Twilight this weekend? Did you like it?

A few hours ago, I finished the most difficult COBOL I’ve been assigned so far. It was my last “homework”, because the next program is for my final test. Don’t get me started with that one, it’s going to be ten times worse than this one.

Anyways, the program purpose was to subscribe competitors for an annual “Magic” tournament. The competitor details were written in a report. The thing is, we had to validate each field. For example, if we had a ‘Telephone’ field, we had to validate that all characters entered were numbers. It was complicated, but I’m really glad I finished it. Here’s a screen capture of the Subscription Form:

I decided to go with purple, we had the liberty to create the output as we wished. I think it goes more with my personality, hehe. I have such a love/hate relationship with Cobol. I usually like it, but when I’m really stressed out with everything and on top of that, I am working on a program, it receives all my hate.

Do you know any programming language? If so, which one?

Twilight opens in theaters this Thursday, here at least. I’m so excited for the movie. I went to Hot Topic this weekend to buy a Twilight shirt because I want to wear it. I found one that says “Team Edward” on the front, so I picked that one instantly. On the back it says “What If I’m not the Hero? What if I’m the Bad Guy?” and the Twilight logo.

Sorry about the quality, I forgot to turn off the flash when taking the picture so the shirt looks all weird.

My parents bought me the Movie OST and a key chain, they know how obsessed I am with Twilight, I didn’t even ask for that stuff! I’m going with a couple of friends to see the movie, so I can’t wait. I really need to distract myself because I’ve been feeling a little down lately.

Are you going to see Twilight? When are you planning to go see it?
