Academy Awards 2011

And the results are:

Best Picture, The King's Speech
Best Actor, Colin Firth
Best Actress, Natalie Portman
Best Supporting Actor, Christian Bale
Best Supporting Actress, Melissa Leo
Director, The King's Speech
Adapted Screenplay, The Social Network
Original Screenplay, The King's Speech
Best Song, "We Belong Together"
Animated Feature, Toy Story 3

Well I only named the important ones and the major upsets... Everything was expected except Best Song. Really?? "We Belong Together"??? That should have gone to "If I Rise" or any of the other ones in the category. Congratulations Colin Firth, I have liked you since you appeared in "What a Girl Wants" with Amanda Bynes. But.... Jesse did an AMAZING job in the Social Network... incredible... Oh well, next year. Melissa Leo should have been disqualified after that commercial she did for herself... what kind of publicist or manager would let her do something like that? Also Best Movie... Although they had a great group of actors, I think the Social Network impacted more to our generation. My last opinion would be that 127 hours was robbed. It deserved to win more Oscars than Inception and the Wolfman, wtf was that??? Oh well.. Congratulations to the winners. Can't wait til next year! =)

Zoom!

So I got my teeth whitened this Friday! I'm so happy, not that I had bad teeth =S it just never hurts to brighten your smile. The dentist used the Zoom Teeth Whitening System, all in all I was in that chair for like an hour and fifteen minutes but I saw results immediately! They even took before and after pics =D. There was a slight discomfort because yes, your teeth are being burned with a laser. But the only lasting result is that me being a tiny girl, my mouth was too small for the mouth guard so it left my mouth sore =(. Oh well, can't wait to wear red lipstick! All we need now is an occasion B).

SunPass Only

So if you live in Miami you already know that Tolls will now be SunPass only or Pay-By-Plate (which is where they take a picture of your license plate and send a monthly statement to the registered address). It's a shame because toll worker who have dedicated 10, 20, or 30 years of their life to serving others will find themselves out of a job if they do not have the computer skills needed to complete the administrative tasks associated with Pay-By-Plate. I am not saying that I will miss the long sweaty lines, or that SunPass is not convenient, but that it is not needed. My parents who hardly go on the highway will probably receive an invoice of $0.25 for the one time they drove to the beach in an envelope that cost more than the fee. This is however a good way to increase USPS flow but is it really saving that much money over hired personnel to work the tolls? Regardless of our opinions it is now written in stone that tolls on the Turnpike shall be paperless, thankfully the Key Biscayne toll will still keep the hope for all toll-workers alive. As of now there are no plans to fully digitize entrance to the Key. Bye Bye all who faithfully served the highways of Miami, hopefully there is a light at the end of your tunnel.

Sigma Tel Audio

So apparently the Sigma Tel Audio is super important to your computer lol. I had no idea it controlled the audio even though it says it in the title and I uninstalled it during a routine Spring Cleaning. I thought it was an old add on from one of my old ISM classes =/. Yes, I had no volume for a full forty min. That's when my ingenuity kicked in and I decided to Google how to solve the problem and eventually downloaded the program fixing it all by myself. So proud I can be so handy! =D. End of my 1st adventure for the day, how exciting lol.

Valentine's Day

So I had a lot of fun seeing as how I was celebrating Valentines's Day and not Single Awareness Day lol. Had some Sushi with my babe and watched The Eagle with Channing Tatum.. the scene were they eat the raw mole is super romantic. Saw Just Go with It as well over the weekend and found it to be a more humorous alternative. Adam Sandler throwing his fake child into the mud can make you laugh. Anyways, hope you had a good time however you spent it =)

Final Semester at FIU

So this is my final semester at FIU and I am ecstatic. I apologize for my absence but it has been quite a ride. From Interning at the Fed in DC to traveling to Spain, becoming Director of Public Relations for my fraternity and winning LipSync in Homecoming, to trying to have a future after graduation by applying for the perfect job, to applying for graduation this week. Wow, how time flies. For now I will try to record the happennings of my final semester like becoming a safer driver due to the implementation of cameras at street lights and suffering an identity crisis due to the change in the horoscope. Let's end this school year with a bang!

See you soon!
