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!

Never again...

So I'm starving and it's raining outside so delivery sounds good, no? I'm kind of tight on cash but I still want pasta so I decide to order from Dominos. I usually get the Chicken Alfredo but I don't really like the chicken that much. Regardless, the bowl without protein is still $6.99 so I opt for the cheaper Mac and 3 Cheese option ($5.99). Never again will I try to save a buck. Not only was the price exactly the same due to taxes, delivery fees, and tip, but it looked and tasted terrible. Compare the pictures below and you tell me. Not only was I disappointed, but I was also left hungry =(. Thanks Domino's....

Our Favorite Beauty Queen Wins an Oscar =)

Sandra Bullock is the first Actress to ever win Bet Actress and Worst Actress in the same weekend =). The lovely 45 year old finally won her first Oscar for her role in The Blind Side and won a Razzie for her role in All About Steve. I'm sure both recognitions were prestigious, and bizarrely gratifying at the same time. Bad PR is better then no PR. As she graciously accepted her Razzie, she jokingly said "Thank you so much, I was told no one watched the movie but now I can see that's not true. For sure at least the 700 Razzie members watched it" or something along those lines. When she accepted her Oscar she thanked mommas everywhere for taking care of children even if they are not biologically theirs. Aww how sweet. Congrats to all her achievements, she deserved it for Miss Congeniality ;)
