500 Page Views

So I reached 500 page views on my blog. And to celebrate I wanted to do something I haven't done before on my blog. My idea was to do a Would You Rather... Question and Answer post. Or you might want to just ask me regular questions. Maybe you might like me to draw something. I dont know its your choice. Leave your suggestions in the comments.

Writing Is Fun

So you guys should know by now that I like to sketch. What you may not know is that i like to write as well. Wait...let me rethink that. I do write a blog. So I guess you DO know I like to write hehe. But to be more specific, I like to write stories.

I guess it came from reading alot of books. I like to read fantasy, sci-fi, and teen fiction. But mostly fantasy.It also came from playing video games that tell a good story to go along with the gameplay. Another reason is because I watch anime. Anyway this post isn't about how I like to read books, play video games, or watch anime.

For years now I would come up with these stories but keep them to myself. Now that I'm older I have more experience writing. I also have finally worked up the courage to share these stories I've written with my family. This may sound great and all except for the fact that I never finish writing a story when I move on to the next story idea.

I like writing when its creative writing. Its fun to see your ideas come to life on paper. I think writing is fun. 

The Carmichael Show

Today I want to talk about a new show that started giving on NBC 4. I'm talking about The Carmichael Show. This show is soo funny and soo good. It tackles real world issues and puts a comedic spin on them. Owning a gun, obesity, and religion are some of the issues brought up in the show. My favorite characters are Gerod and his mother. Gerod is the voice of reason in the family while his mother has an old school mentality.

I really like this show and I hope you give it a chance.

Minions Review

So yesterday I saw the movie Minions with my niece. And what a great movie it was. Half of me thought this movie was gonna be bad. I mean how was the movie gonna work having just minions? The other half of me really wanted to see this movie because of how the minions interacted with each other in the previews on tv.

This movie is about how the minions became Gru's henchmen. But this movie isn't about Gru. Its about the Minions. The movie follows the minions journey to find a boss to serve. From the ocean to land they go from boss to boss screwing up hilariously in some way, shape, or form causing them to look for a new boss. I dont wanna say too much about this movie because you should experience this movie for yourself. Its that good and its really funny. The personalities of the 3 main minions the movie focuses on are hilarious. This movie is definitly a must watch.

Blog Update #2: Tumblr and Twitter

I always like when my blog's page views goes up. That means that people are actually reading it(fingers crossed). I want to make my audience grow even more though. Thats why I joined tumblr to display just my art. Also I made a twitter to reach more people. Hopefully things will go as planned.

Bro-bot lives

So yesterday I started assembling a Green Science Tin Can Robot that my sister got for me. It was a little hard to make; handling those small screws are a killer. Once I got a hold of the right tools (Thanks mom) it became easier to assemble. Today I finally finished building my Bro-bot(see the Coco-cola can with the word Bro). Its fun to see it wobble forward and it gives me a great sense of accomplishment knowing that i built it with my own 2 hands.

Kirby Triple Deluxe

Kirby Triple Deluxe is a really fun and cool game for the Nintendo 3DS. It has 3 modes of play right off the bat: Story Mode, Kirby Fighters, and Dedede's Drum Dash.

Story Mode is the main game. Kirby is sleeping in his home at night when a bean stalk starts to grow from underneath. Taking him to the clouds he witness' the kidnapping of King Dedede. And so the story unfolds. In story mode the game has you look for sun stones hidden in the foreground and background of each level. Collect enough sun stones and you unlock the boss stage. New to the game is a fruit that gives you the power to do a super suction. Use this to defeat stronger enemies and solve puzzles. There are even a couple of new abilities acquired from new enemies. What I really like is that you can collect keychains that have pictures of characters from past kirby games.

Then there is kirby fighters. A multiplayer kirby death match; this mode has you fight 3 other kirbys with there own copied abilities.

Lastly there is Dedede's Drum Dash. You play as King Dedede while jumping foreward bouncing on drums and collecting points.

This is the best kirby game yet. If you have a 3DS and like kirby games then this is the game to get.

Real Life

I've been away from my blog for a really long time. Its NOT because I forgot about it or because I was tired of writing. I been dealing with something in my life that I thought I would share with you. I suffer from schizophrenia. Which means I hear voices that aren't really there. I hear them 24/7. In my case they mimic my thoughts. Think of it like an annoying echo. Like when little kids copy what you say to bother you. They also comment on anything I do which is usually followed by an insult. And since I hear them 24/7 it feels like I'm being followed. It feels that real.

This is what I've been battling with since I was in highschool. After highschool I was fine but it recently returned. I stopped drawing. I stopped reading. And I stopped writing. But don't worry. I see a therapist once a week and I've been getting better. Slowly but surely. Enough so that I feel well enough to get back into doing the things I like to do.

So now you know. I hope I shed some light on the illness to everyone reading this. If your view of me has changed for the worse then I guess this is where our friendship ends. I'm still the same person you got to know so don't judge me. I guess thats all I have to say. So on to the next...

The Wizards Promise By Cassandra Rose Clarke

After reading all the Harry Potter books and all The Hunger Games books I had trouble finding the next great book to read. That is until now. I went to the library one day browsing through the books, not looking for anything specific, when I found The Wizards Promise. I read the back and it sounded interesting. So I read it and enjoyed it. But here is the problem. I did research on the book. The internet says this book is part of a 2 book series. The 2nd book (if I understood correctly) hasn't been written or published because the publishing company has decided to shutdown. So should I recommend this book if its gonna end in a cliffhanger. If you dont mind a cliffhanger then continue reading.

Like I said, I found this book to be very interesting and enjoyable. Its about a girl named Hanna who wants to become a real wizard. But she is stuck apprenticing for a fisherman. Or so she thinks. As she goes on her first real adventure the truth about her fisherman teacher unravels. All while facing the dangers of The Mist.

I really hope the sequel gets published. Oh well on to the next good book I guess.

Being Puerto Rican

Yesterday was the Puerto Rican Day Parade. On that day we Puerto Ricans show our pride for our island in many different ways. We wave our flags and honk our car horns and blow our whistles. We march around the neighborhood wearing clothes that display the Puerto Rican flag while screaming "BORICUA!!!" at each other. In past years this is how I celebrated. I'm Puerto Rican and I'm proud.

Epic The Movie

I recently got the movie Epic from my older sister who thought I would enjoy it more than her kids. Turns out she was right! This movie was really cool. The story revolves around this girl named MK. She comes home to reconnect with her father who has been studying this mysterious race of creatures living in the forest. Due to dramatic events that unfold rather early in the movie, MK enters this hidden world, chosen to save it from destruction by the hands of evil warriors.

The environment in which the story takes place is a real sight for sore eyes. What may look like a regular flower or dandelion is actually a living creature. Some of these creatures are voiced by celebrities like Beyonce as Queen Tara and Aziz Ansari as the slug. I really enjoyed this movie. I'll end this post with two words. Thanks Sis!
