Man,

I even forgot I had a Xanga! XD Hehe...it's been FOREVER! I guess everyone is on myspace now, I guess...hehe oh well! Let's see...what I have done?

Well, I'm pissed off right now cause our internet connection here at the village gave out; the RA told me that some water got on the panel for connecting the internet and that the company will 'fix it as soon as possible' Mmmhmm...yeah, whatever. Just when I started my summer classes, this crap happens XD hehe

I like summer classes...even though I don't have the book for one of the classes. I hate Stats! :( But the professor I've been told makes it easy so hopefully it will work out for the best! :) Hehe My other class...whoo! I love it! We're going to learn web programming! :) Hehe...I'm such a nerd hehe :P I always wanted to learn but I would have to pay for a certification class and all this crap, but I was lucky the professor picked web programming this semester (each semester covers something different in that class) and well I got lucky! And even better...I DON'T NEED A BOOK FOR THAT CLASS! Whoo-hoo! :) I lucked out this semester for sure!

Now the fall the other hand...

Anyways, I'm so happy...i've been with my boyfriend for 1 1/2 years! Whoo! Halfway mark! :P Hehe...I'm so happy...we're both so happy... and I love him SO much...I know we'll make it to 2 years...

And i know even more than that...

I Am Here...Where Are You?

Sun, 18 Mar 2007 00:22:28 GMT

November? Wow, I guess it's been a while...

Oye, I don't really have much to write about...

This new semester is tiring...I have assignments and presentations left and right! Blah! XD

I've got only 5 cents in my bank account, had Ramen noodle cups piling up in my room...

Finally got a decent meal yesterday and that's only thanks to the love of my life

...and I am failing three out of my four classes!

So...what is a girl to do?

Two more months and this semester is finally over! That...and I FINALLY get the hell out of here! Even if it's in the college dorms, at least I get more freedom there than any I have EVER had here!

That...and I get to see him whenever I want

And that is enough incentive for me...for everyday with you...

I am left breathless...

That's all I got...be sure to pick up a cookie on your way out

I May Not Look Like Much...

I hope everyone is having a good holiday…hehe.

I guess it’s true, everyone is jumping ship on xanga now thanks to MySpace. Personally, I don’t really like it…the layout of it annoys me. Hehe…that and it reminds me a lot of Hi5 and Tag. Xanga feels more like a blog area than a personal homepage, you know?

Anyways, sorry I haven’t been able to post up anything for a while…school has left me very little time to do anything I WANT to do and adding marching band to the mix ain’t helping the situation out either. So, oh well…hehe.

I haven’t really been up to anything…just school and band which kind of reminds me I’m still in High School…even got some drama going on, hehe. But eh…can’t complain…at least I’m not bored and I get to see my friends! Hehe…

I don’t really like to put up private stuff up on here…never had in the past…

And I’ve never put anything on what I’m feeling either, so I’m not going to start now…

What this means is…it’s a short entry. I’m going to go and thanks for everybody who still reads this to stay as long as they did. I promise…I won’t disappoint you the next time .

Oh, and I hope everyone is having a Happy Thanksgiving!

Crime in north Laredo: Armed men storm Target; no shots fired

By KIRSTEN CROW and JULIE DAFFERN , LAREDO MORNING TIMES

Armed gunmen stormed into the Target Greatland store in north Laredo Monday evening, chasing another group of men as terrified customers and employees fled the building.No shots were fired, said Laredo Police spokesman Juan Rivera, and police officers were on the scene almost immediately.

Two men were in custody late Monday. Both have Laredo addresses, Rivera said, and they don’t appear to be connected with the ongoing crime wave in Nuevo Laredo.

An incensed Mayor Raul Salinas was at the scene, praising Laredo officers’ work and vowing to find the assailants.

“We’re going to use whatever resources are necessary,” he said. “We will deal with it immediately. The safety of our citizens is our No. 1 priority.

“We need to send a very strong message that we will not tolerate lawlessness in this town.”

Rivera said a call came in at about 7 p.m. that men armed with weapons were inside Target.

There was some kind of confrontation outside the store, Rivera said. As the victims ran into the store for cover, they were chased by armed assailants. While Rivera could not confirm the exact type of weapon, some witnesses said they looked like machine guns.

“They had a plan. They were looking for someone and they identified their target,” Rivera said.

There was a group of victims and a group of assailants, Rivera said. Some escaped out the back of the store and some out the front.

One officer chased a suspect across the road on foot, catching him near Manadas Creek, about a mile from Target. The suspect was armed, Rivera said.

“It was a great job by the officer,” Rivera said.

That suspect and another man are the ones in custody; it was unclear whether the second man was a victim or assailant. Their names were not immediately available.

“It was a pretty widespread crime scene,” Rivera said. “There was a lot going on and we don’t know who’s who yet.

“The quick response time by the officers made the difference,” Rivera added. “These guys were going to confront the situation head on.”

As they were looking for evidence, police found a weapon inside a trash can in the parking lot along with some ammunition. Officers also recovered one of the vehicles involved at a restaurant across the street, Rivera said.

Shortly after 8 p.m., officers wearing bulletproof vests went into the store, sweeping the place for evidence and ensuring that there was no assailant hiding anywhere in the store.

Target officials said their first priority is the safety of customers and employees; the store was evacuated when the attackers ran into the building and it was closed for the rest of the night. Target officials said they were working with police to investigate the incident.

Outside the store, employees and a few customers were milling around. Employees were taken back into the store, and then walked out again; it was unclear why they were asked to do that.

Michael Worth was one of the customers waiting outside.

He said he was shopping for DVDs in Target, and noticed some children playing with toy swords in one of the aisles. Then he saw a teenager running, with two men chasing him. The two men had guns, but he at first thought they were toy guns.

“I saw what I thought was a plastic rifle,” Worth said. “I went right back to my business.”

About two minutes later, he said, a store employee came over and told him he needed to leave the store, which he did.

Worth said he was waiting because he hoped the store would reopen so that he could purchase the DVDs he had already set aside inside. But that was in vain; the store did not open again.

Across the parking lot at a restaurant, Ryan Cuddigan said he saw a man run by the restaurant, followed by police officers. The man jumped the ditch along I-35 and climbed onto the highway.

Reports that the H-E-B store next door to Target also was evacuated turned out to be unfounded; the store manager said officers came into the store, but it was not evacuated.

So, what now? Do we have to stay home and not go anywhere anymore? Is this how lazy this city has become? I understand it's impossible to have policemen at EVERY public area, but for something like this to happen... this is disappointing. Luckily, no one was shot or hurt but what if it had been different? What if someone had gotten shot? It could have been worse...much worse.

Slipping....

Mon, 21 Aug 2006 00:56:59 GMT

Have you ever had that feeling?

That feeling where you can feel your mind slip from you?

It’s starts off little…you zone out a little and just come back slowly. But then you actually start loosing more memories, more thoughts. You start to feel gaps when you are supposed to be concentrating…

Yeah, I like that feeling.

And I hate you for trying to ‘fix’ me.

That is all I wanted to say.

Sorry...no entry today...but I leave presents!

Mon, 15 May 2006 18:10:54 GMT

Yeah, yeah...post, Rosy, post! (Okay, no one really says that...it's all in my head but whatever!)

I'm just going to leave some links for some wallpapers I made...I got bored and made them. I really like them...some of my finest work i believe. They're layouts I make for this forum i'm with...(I'm a system administrator there)...check it out...it's not bad... Sign up today!

Okay, here are my wallpapers...hope you all enjoy and please don't steal them without giving me credit...it took me a very long time to make them...thank you ! :)

First one is Witch Hunter Robin, the second one is a Kingdom Hearts II one, Cloud one from FFVII: Advent Children, and the last one (which I just added) is Sephiroth from FFVII:Advent Children (This is my favorite one! hehe...)...just click on the pics above and they'll take you to the wallpapers.

I'll probably post more later on...I don't know. Damn, I have too much free time...

Have fun!

-Rosy ^_^

P.S. Please comment...I just want to see if you all really liked them or not (I'm my own worst critic!) hehe...

Clocks, Moogles and Pocky, Oh MY!

Mon, 24 Apr 2006 21:07:07 GMT

KUPO!

~*~

Oye…sorry I haven’t written for a while…

Damn, moogles are so CUTE!! (look above ^ )

Anyways, I kept forgetting and with all my freaking projects I’ve been doing lately, I never had time to type anything out. So…let’s begin…

Where did I leave off…

*Looks at previous entry*

Not very detailed is it…

Well, I believe I’m going to do well this semester. I’ve only got two weeks left but I know I’m going to do good…my final project for Programming is going to save my ass. So is the project for my MIS 3310 class…awww…all I have to worry about now is the finals…but they’re going to be easy since both of my professors are lazy and are just going to copy and paste from previous exams and quizzes…so, it’s cool. I just have to transfer my grades from LCC that I took from last year and I might even have a 2.8 GPA…here’s to hoping. It’s funny…here I have a 2.2 and over there I have a 3.6…which is saying something I guess. Hehehe…

P.S. Flash drives...

...a girl's best friend . Espcially one who is a MIS major...oh, I would DIE if I didn't have mine on me 24/7...beats floppies, TRUST ME! I'm going to have like five by next year...oohhh...

Hmmm…what else? Oh, I’ve FINALLY got to play Kingdom Hearts 2 ( I had to wait for my sister to play it…I was dying!) Well, the game rocks…even thought the story does get a little confusing but figuring it out is half the fun! Hehehe…I’m such a dork

By the way, the song that’s playing right now is from the game…I love this song! I’ll probably change the song on my site every two weeks or something…for now, they are going to be from the KHII soundtrack…I love this music! Hehe…

Don’t know if I should be looping it but ehh…I’m going to leave it like this for a while…who knows…

Guess what else I found out? I found this while shopping at Wal-mart a couple of days ago and laughed at how weird it is to find this in Laredo much less Wal-mart...

Enough said...and if you don't know what it is, it's just good and delicious and...yeah... buy some now at your local Wal-mart, bitches! (Shameless plug, there)

Anyways, also put up a new layout…nothing against Kairi (that really PINK layout I've had since forever...) but I have this weird obsession with time…you won’t believe how many damn clocks and watches I have…if I find them at the flea market or something, I buy it. What I really want is what you all are looking at…I haven’t found an astronomical clock around here so maybe I’ll luck out and find it…I also need to get a sundial for the house…hehe…hmmm… I don’t know…it’s weird since I know A LOT of people who have this fear of how much time we have left and blah blah blah…all that dramatic shit…but ehh…I’m not really afraid of that…it’s pretty stupid if you ask me…

I guess that’s all for now…not really much to write about…sad, right? All this time and I STILL have nothing to write about…it’s always about school…

I’ve GOT to get a life…

Or a job…maybe…

LIVE AND LET LIVE!!
