It's been a while since I last blogged here on my xanga, but I feel a surge coming on that can only impact it positively :)

So much has happened since last post... I moved out of the university dorms and into this pleasant gated community here in Miami, but last week I had to change apartments because one roommate was a total tyrant/psycho/beast (beware! beware!). Now my roommate and I are settled into our new 2-bedroom apartment which has been repainted and scrubbed to fit our approval prior to our move-in. It's nice not having the cranky FIU f--k around, but we have this other problem: our OTHER inhabitants the cockroaches.

Apparently, once wet season hits in Florida these guys along with mosquitoes come out to play in numbers, and it's not at all unusual to have a few skitter around the home during this time. I have to say, though bugs in general don't bug me (pun not intended), these things do. They're fugly, they're creepy, and they don't belong here in my room. We unfortunately ran out of Raid Ant and Roach Killer spray a few days ago when I had to kill one so I made sure to pick up a new can at Publix coming home from the boring morning shift at work.

Thank god I did. I hit the treasure trove in the apartment when I was spray this crack underneath the kitchen sink which was scary; at least four of 'em scattered out at me. I'm not one of those squealy types of girls, but geeeeez, different story when it comes to killing and then disposing of cockroach carcass. It's like when they die, they keep twitching for a little while following the lethal spray of Raid and spew out this inky black stuff... hope it doesn't stain. It's gross nonetheless, having to kill 7 by hand in one evening. I'm more worried about these bastards than I ever was about Hurricane Ike. I wonder how loud my roommate will squeal when she gets home in a few. >.>

I haven't written anything for quite some time, though it should come as no surprise since pretty much everybody does that sooner or later. Much has changed, much has stayed the same lately. I've just recently started the spring 2008 quarter, meaning I'm nearly a sophomore here at MIU. The annoying roommate from hell departed a few weeks ago and life has been both blissful though a bit lonely back in my room. Enrolled and rockstarred bartending school... now to find a steady spot to call work. Spring break was boring, though Ultra Music Festival would have been worth the $150 admission had I not been working there. Made a couple new friends and have lost some along the way.

In summary, life is continuing on as it should.

For the first time in what seems like eternity... in actuality, a few months... I'm so incredibly stoked (and I hate using that word... stoked...) about a new idea I have for a video. I just love it when creativity randomly strikes me, now I'm so hyped up to churn it out and edit it up nicely. It's going to be a music video of course, that is becoming my specialty nowadays.

It's partially inspired by a weird but memorable movie I saw the other night, "Requiem for a Dream" just without the raw, nasty footage. I want to start making it tomorrow afternoon after post-production class lets out... yay!!!

(I'll try again to write every day now Mom)
