Friday Night Lights

Geia sas everyone,
i've been so busy lately my blog has been lonely but i promise to never leave it too long!
My interview today was stressful but i hope i get the job. Andd i have to get all these immunizations for school...boo. I also found out my state registry test for CNA will be November 5th, i'm so nervous!!
So anyway my current favorite show is Friday Night Lights
& i've been watching the older seasons on TV lately so i found the 1st & 2nd seasons on ebay & bought them.
Here is the description: Football is one of the most popular sports in America, but in Texas it's closer to religion. The first season of this award-winning show uses the game as focal point for each episode's structure, but the gridiron often takes the backseat to the more pressing issues of life in Middle America. The real star of the show is the fictional town of Dillon, a place that represents the struggle of hard-working-yet-flawed human beings getting through another year of life in a small community. The town's team, the Panthers, may be headed for the top, but can their coach and the players keep it together as the pressure of their personal lives threatens to knock them down?
Its such a good show set in the heart of Texas (you know how i love Texas!) with a football team called the Dillon Panthers. It follows the lives of its players & coach. My favorite of the cast is Taylor Kitsch who plays Tim Riggins.
But poor Tim; he always ends up screwed in just about everything he does. He gets accused of things he doesn't do & gets in more than normal amounts of trouble for the things he actually does.
All the characters make it a great show though.
I can't wait to get the other two seasons!
The love story between Tim & Lyla (below) is so cute but sad at the same time. So it definitely keeps you watching.
Sadly i think there is only one more new season left :(
Some of the original cast is not still on the new episodes but they've still managed to keep it a really good show. Oh & don't worry Tim is still on the show :)
Lol have a nice rest of the week!

Texas Bound!

Geia sas everyone!
I've been crazy busy so i haven't had too much time to update y'all but my last day of clinicals is tomorrow; thank God! I just pray i pass because my instructor doesn't like me & she's not a pleasant woman...just my luck right! So then after clinical i'm quick signing up for my advance CNA class, finishing up my packing & catching a plane to Texas..yes Texas which i adore.

My brother is graduating from bootcamp & i'm going to see him & my family in Texas who i miss a lot.
I'm so proud of my brother & will be real happy to see him. So if you want to stay updated with me more frequently here is my twitter @sassyagapi

Dear Diary..Bootcamp, School, & more

Geia sas, today was a long and draining day for me; we saw my older brother off for Army bootcamp. It started early this morning when my mom & i went to the building where they are sworn in & wait to leave. So we got there at 8:40a.m. & saw my brother,then we waited for about 2hrs before they were sworn in & then back to waiting again. We talked to 2 other families & i did a lot of blank staring at Sports Center on ESPN(which btw was the most boring thing ever..& i LIKE sports!).
We sat for about another 2hrs before they called all the Army & Marine recruits to a briefing, & there was one young man left that was going in the Navy & he was sitting all by himself(side note;he looked just like Josh Hartnett) & i didn't see him talk to anyone the whole time & just as i was going to talk to him my mom called me to come over by her. I never took the chance to talk to him & i felt bad the whole ride to the airport, don't you just hate when that happens, you wish you would'ev done something but you didn't & now you feel guilty & just blahh. Well we finally left the airport at 2p.m. & went to a Mexican restaurant. This is really hard for my mom especially.
Tomorrow i have a meeting with a different college that i may possibly go to for my sonography, the only thing is they are really expensive & i'm not sure if i can work everything out, i'm just praying that everything will work out the way i need it to.
    Also, I've been so wanting to move to Texas, especially when my mom pulled up small ranch for sale near Austin. We have considered it & i really want to but i'm doubting that it will happen just because its a pretty far move & i doubt my mom would end up going through with it. ..*sigh* oh well maybe someday...

 
On a happier note Cristiano Ronaldo posted a few of his vacation pictures on Facebook, so i'll share his wonderfulness :]


Ah now that's the life Cristiano, glad you enjoyed your vacation so now we can get back to business & win some matches!


Today i wore my American Indian shirt & showed a little Native pride :)
I love dangling earrings!
My sorta braid, my hair looks kinda lighter here,hmm

TriBeCa Diaries #5: The Wild Man of the Navidad

When Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez unleashed Grindhouse on us in early 2007, it was an essential orgy of nostalgia dressed up in zombie violence and car-chase-mania. It was an exhilerating experience for anyone who'd gone, back in the day, to the drive-ins and--yes--the grindhouses to catch Death Race 2000 or Dawn of the Dead or God Told Me To. It seemed to get every detail right--the

Film #19: Last Night at the Alamo

Last Night at the Alamo, the late Eagle Pennell's seminal indie film from 1983, and one of the first hits at the Sundance Film Festival (then known as the USA Film Festival), is a boisterous, ultimately pitiful portrait of a doomed Houston bar's alcohol-sodden denizens. It takes its place alongside Barfly, Trees Lounge and Husbands as an unshowered, unshaven scetch of loud-mouthed drunks, so if
