Origami Killer

by Ruiz on Mar.09, 2010, under life

oragamikiller Hello again. As always, I hope that everybody is doing well. The weather has been humid and ugly all day today. Here’s a quick photo that I wanted to share. It’s an origami figure that Eunice created for me. The figure is based off of a dramatic thriller-type video game called Heavy Rain. For the past two nights, Anthony, Matt, Raymond, Thomas, and I have been playing this game nonstop until we beat it. The game is really incredible and kept all of us on the edge of our seats through the entire game. It’s a really fun and suspenseful game that gets everybody indirectly involved. The storyline is truly an incredible experience and will keep you thinking for days to come. If you have the chance to play this game, then you really should, especially with friends!!

So anyways, I finally finished my application for Texas A&M University. It took weeks for me to finish it and I’m glad that I nailed it before the deadline.  I also applied to University of Texas San Antonio, kind of as a fall back plan just incase things don’t work thing. It’s crazy that it took weeks for me to apply to A&M, but only minutes to apply for UTSA. I did not apply to University of Texas at Austin because I missed the deadline (or laziness) or Texas State University because it did not offer what I needed. Well nonetheless, I’m glad that I finally have all of my college applications all squared away and I don’t have to worry about them any longer. The only thing left for me to do cross my fingers and pray that I make it, here’s to hoping! :)

Please stay happy and healthy everybody! I’m going crazy. I’ll see you soon..

Hello! I hope that everybody is doing well. I’m know I’m still slacking a bit when it comes to rollin’ out the blog posts, but you can still see my effort! ^_^;;

So I spent the past weekend with Chloe, and I have to say that it was awesome! From awkward Salsa dancing in San Marcos to seeing the entire city of San Antonio light up beautifully at night, it was all an amazing and unique experience. Chloe pretty much summarized up the entire weekend on her blog. It was incredible being able to travel the city with her, meet some of her family, and experience high school as she lived it. :)

These are just a few of the pictures that we took over the weekend. None of these pictures have been edited or Photoshopped, with the exception of stitched panoramas. Enjoy!

Oh, and you want to see what San Antonio looks like during the sunset?

Disappointing

by Ruiz on Feb.16, 2010, under life

Wow, I’m very disappointed with myself. I can’t believe it’s taken me this long to write another blog post. I apologize. So many things have been going on with my life and I just haven’t felt like blogging like I should have. Well, don’t worry! I’m glad to say that over the past few weeks, I’ve been slowly getting established with a new lifestyle. My activities, interests, and habits have been changing all for the better.

I need to get back into blogging my thoughts more. So with that said, you’ll see me posting a lot more entries along with more photos. The weather hasn’t been kind to me these days. Unkind weather = less photos. But It will all change soon, the weather will start to get warm again next month which will call for more opportunities to take pictures.

So, a quick run-through of things that have been going on with me:

  • I’m dating again. Yeah, I know right? It’s been over 20 months since I’ve last dated. I always knew that it was always best to wait and I’m glad I did. It hasn’t been that long, but I feel that we’re growing closer to each other very rapidly. Because she resides in San Marcos, we don’t get to see each other as often as we desire. But whenever we do get to see each other, everything just falls into place… perfectly.
  • Trying to fill out college applications like crazy. Sigh, I hate all of this last-minute crap. I don’t want to go anywhere that is too far from home. I feel that it would be an inconvenience. Current universities I’m looking into at the moment: Texas A&M University, University of Texas at Austin, University of Texas San Antonio, Texas State University.
  • I suck at Street Fighter. *gasp* No way!! Way. I’ve been practicing a lot for the upcoming tournament at Arcade UFO on the 20th which is only four days away. It seems that the closer I am to the deadline, the more worse I  become. I’ve been practicing a quite an amount but I just don’t feel that I’m up to par with the fierce competition that undeniably will be there. It may just be fear or pressure, but I’ll definitely try my hardest. I can’t let my partner Anthony down. He needs a good partner that he can depend on.

That’s it. I’ll conclude with a panoramic photo that I took a few weeks back with my friend Melly. It could have looked much better, but a cop stopped us and made us get off the highway. Major cool points to anybody who can figure out which intersection in Killeen this is. :)

Devo’s 21st Birthday

by Ruiz on Jan.05, 2010, under life

DSC_0178 How is everybody? I hope that you all are doing very well and kicking things off right this new year! ^O^

Yesterday was such a lazy day. I had so much to do and ended up doing nothing at all. My laundry is still dirty and I still need to visit the school to inquire some info about financial aid. Though I was pretty dead during the daytime, things started to become lively during the night. Matt and I decided to treat our friend Devo, who turned 21 yesterday, to a small birthday surprise. Nothing too big, just cake, snacks, and a great time together with the rest of our friends. Happy 21st Devo! :)
