  When Death Strikes...

  ...everything is uncertain, at least in my case. When I wrote my last post saying I would not be on until August 31, I didn't really know if that would be the case, but it was what seemed most likely. At the time, it was 1:11AM on Tuesday, May 13. I was getting ready to leave the country that same day at 12:30PM to see my sick mother who was unfortunately in bed due to cancer and at my grandparents' in another country. Needless to say, her condition was critical and although I had hope and prayed that she would, she unfortunately didn't last much longer. At 12:10PM that same day, about exactly 10 hours and 59 minutes after that blog post, she passed. When I got off the plane that was the news I was unfortunately greeted with.

  Having already told that, I wish to apologize to anybody who feels in any way cheated that I am back sooner than expected or who thinks that I should have updated you guys sooner, but I am still abroad and not on as often as back home so I unfortunately hadn't gotten around to it. At the time I wrote my last post there was no internet connection where I am currently staying and it was not installed until about a month or so later. Because I didn't know that I would be on for sure before August 31, the site moderators decided to retire me from my guides because that was too long a time, and I completely understand their decision since I would have probably done the same not knowing the situation. I have started fresh now and so far I've gained 2 new guides.

  It has obviously been a rough time, especially on a day like today that is her birthday, and I still can't imagine life back at home without my mother, but I somehow must still move on and I think that with the help and support of everyone around me I hopefully will. Although everything is still uncertain at this point, one thing's definitely for sure: my mother will always live in my heart. I love you, mother, and may you and your soul rest in peace!

  Gone from 5/13/08 to 8/31/08

  This is just a post to comply with the guidelines and to let the site runners know that I will be unable to check my queue during this time.

  Goodbye High School...

  Hello Everyone,

  So it's been forever since my last blog, but these last few months were wicked busy for me. On a good note, however, is the fact that I officially came out of school last week and now I only have to go back for graduation at St. Patrick's Cathedral and to get my diploma. I am looking forward to college now, which I will start kinda early in July with some summer courses before I officially start my official career at NYU. In a way it's good to be out of high school and have college to look forward to, but then again all the good memories make you miss what you are about to let go of.

  On a TV related note, I retired from a few shows because the number of submissions in my queue daily was getting ridiculous. I did however become editor of two new shows this fall, The CW's Reaper and NBC's Bionic Woman. I've only heard good things about both from the critics and from the previews that have been released they both look really exciting. I am also almost finished with level 44, which is good, I guess.

  That's all for now (I'm really hungry and just ordered Chinese, lol) so thanks for reading and hopefully I'll get another chance to blog soon.
