I have no life.

I just got a new MSI laptop that runs with windows 7 and I'm loving it so far.

The features are so great and right now I'm writing with Microsoft word and apparently it's going to post my blog for me. Isn't that just so cool?

I've been updating so little but I really don't have a life anymore.

So many things to do, not enough time, 3 exams a day seems almost normal to me. How sad is that?

We have whole exam weeks where we have at least 2 exams a day and it really kills.

I feel like that's all I talk about these days.

*sigh*

Going back to studying

Tata.

Blah.Blah.Blah

This is really kind of sad to say. I am a very boring and pathetic person. I don't know how much I've said it here but I say it to myself all the time.
I just can't believe how much of a procrastinator I am.
Maybe it's so bad it could be considered as a condition.
I find myself wanting to create new profiles and site profiles and such. ALL THE TIME.
Kind of bad.

There are plenty of things happening right now.
First, school started. Way too excited.
I'm going to struggle my way out of my last year of high school, I just can't wait to be done with boring classes like History/Monde and French.
English Cegep, BRING IT ON.

French teacher's so strict and scary this year. I am going to cry.

Secondly my internet life's way better.
I'll stop telling you guys to go to my deviantART but seriously.
on september 9th, I got a Daily Deviation.
You know what THAT means?
It means my art is displayed first page on deviantART for a day.
YEP.
that was really something check out the DD :3

dA bdays stamp by =mxlove on deviantART

Yeah. That went crazy and got over 900 faves in a day. 1,013 faves now.
It kinda makes your jaw drop when you log in and see over 1000 messages in your inbox when you've just cleared it out last night. Really amazing feeling.
Now go check out the rest of my gallery. (L)

oh yeah, orchestra started. Rehearsals make me happy. It shouldn't but it does.
And also at school, we're reading this book Go Ask Alice and I've been wanting to read it for so long so I'm glad we are.

that's it for the update,
ciao.

Ever heard of a Rubik's cube?

Hi there!
Have you ever tried solving a Rubik's cube? maybe you're pro at it and can solve it in 2 minutes with one hand, or maybe you're like me and trying to figure it out for the first time ever.

I used to only be able to solve the first layer, afterward,  I was simply stuck. I went online and searched all over for step-by-steps but most of them were simply too hard to follow or didn't make any sense.
One day I was with my friend and we were really determined to finish up this cube...
That's when found this tutorial by Martik Panosian.
It looked great and pretty clear on the steps. The drawings and representations were very easy to follow and in no time, we've got the cross!

I love how each steps comes with different possibilities so you're never stuck, and it gives multiple solutions for each case. The colors are clearly represented and with the steps drawn out, I could actually slowly figure out why I was doing those moves and I started to memorize the steps slowly but surely.
It's a great simple and easy to understand guide, you should check it out if you're having trouble with the Rubik's cube!
http://www.rubikssolver.com/
It's one of the best guides I've seen so far and totally legit. :)
Example step one: see how simple that looks?

Summer's here!

Yes finally, summer's here. I've been hanging out a lot and wasting my time on lots of things. Time to relax.
I hope you're all enjoying the weather!

I've kept a personal journal updated so I haven't had time writing in my blog.

No one really reads my blogs, so it's kinda sad. Anyways, I wanted to share a little video:



just kind of crazy but it's amazing.

Omg, what's wrong with deviantART
I can't get it to load and it says page not found..!!
on firefox, it keeps on saying:
The connection has timed out
The server at deviantart.com is taking too long to respond.
    *   The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few
          moments.
    *   If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
          connection.
    *   If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
          that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.
Wtf :(
There's nothing wrong with my internet or anything...

In IE it says:
  Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage
   Most likely causes:
  • You are not connected to the Internet.
  • The website is encountering problems.
  • There might be a typing error in the address.

    It's really frustrating since I WANT to go on that site!! :@

Too much to do.

Too many exams to study for, too many tasks to accomplish, what do I do? what do I do?
Life's so complicated, as if work wasn't really enough work, they have us have love problems, crushes and gives us undeniable choices to make.
I need a vacation from life, but if I die, I wouldn't know how to come back, and these days, there really ARE reasons why I'd want to live sooo. =P maybe another time. Heaven can wait :)
*hugz*
Have a great day :D

Sister has skating competition today. *cheering for her*

Life's the same

It's been a lifetime since I've posted.
well, I'm still the same. Procrastinating... I'm supposed to do my Chinese homework.

The interesting thing here is that the other day, my french teacher was telling about how bad procrastinator was and I felt bad! She said that procrastinators have no self-esteem or self-confidence, that's why they need pressure last minute to do good and so on.
Too bad I procrastinate so much (sad face).


I'm reading Inkheart by Corneila Funke, and I'm at page 460. Intriguing book and nice story and somewhat touching but it's VERY predictable and it's a bit obvious it was written for "kids". I like it though.

I think like a child. *yay*.

Um.. so what else. I've been slacking and I'm failing this school year... shit, I've gotta stop complaining.
I'm in lurve with Kerli Koiv, even though I've loved her like a year ago too.
I love Little Boots too.
Btw Kerli, she reminds me of Lady Gaga. you know, her blond hair, etc, but her music style is of my taste so I'm happy. Lady Gaga makes great dance music, but her voice sounds fake and she wears... wait, no she doesn't even wear clothes... :-|  ouch. but isn't that what people like these days..? fake. yikes.

oh speaking of that, we have to do this project/oral for english class on music. Any suggestions of good music?
I have no intentions on doing it on Justin Bieber. People (13 years old girls) are being so ridiculous these days, I mean, he's just a 16 years old guy who has a girly voice and looks like he's 12... yeah. shock isn't it that he's 16. I mean, hello puberty, missed him?

Enough talk. I'll post again... soon hopefully.

Ps: I PASSED MY DRIVING TEST (stage 1) :D I just need to go get my learner's license and I can drive with a 'dulty beside me. *happy* Now' there's stage two, stage three, stage four, stage five to go. *sad*

Spherco's feature

I'm doing this thing called deviant365 and it's like daily tasks so today's is:

Your task today is to find an under appreciated deviant and feature them off site using other social networking websites. Tweet about them, link them via facebook, write a blog post about them!
[link]

So I decided to feature *spherco
He's just a really really great artist! These two are examples of his work and they're all so amazing! they're under-appreciated I find so give him some love! His digital works are just as amazing as his traditional ones!
Go check'em out!
