Whew. Finally, all paperwork is done. I'm officially in Fine Arts.

So now I have to wait three months to start class -.-

But nevermind. I prefer to wait out on something with the knowledge that it will come than hanging out on a limbo where my future is uncertain

Soo. I got back in the World Of Warcraft time sink after a year and a half of being clean. I find the game world has changed radically. But I don't mind. Now I have time to waste, and it's nice to see the game like it were the first time.

So, to any of you with WoW accounts, send me your char's name and realm, and maybe we can meet there! Also, if you happen to have a Steam account, add me to friends. I'm spectre1111. I've got pretty much every popular game on Steam (except Killing Floor) so feel free to play with me if you want.

Btw, just saw Terminator: Salvation. It was win in a bucket. I don't understand all the haters. It's obvious it isn't as good as the first two, but come on, those movies were concept breakers. Now, the most you can expect is a decent plot with decent twists and marvelous effects, which is exactly what T:S has. So go see it for a cool display of VFX and a loveable character. You are bound to like at least one of them, I guarantee you that.

Ok, I'm off. See you around

PREVIOUS JOURNAL
------------------------
************************

Well, I made it into the career of Fine Arts in the Universidad Nacional de Colombia, the best college in my country. 3rd place, to boot.

I had started a Computer Sciences career in the same college already, but I found out that wasn't my call. I realized I don't enjoy programming as much as I do arting, and even if you can't see it here (sorry if I don't upload everything xD) I am constantly doing something related to art. Heck, is the only thing I enjoy doing for hours at a time without getting bored (other than videogames, but videogames aren't constructive)

So, after quite a qhile of introspection and self exploring, I decided to quit my CS career and pursue my goal in arts. And now, here I am, a renewed me, who couldn't be anny happier with my decision, and eager to see the future.

BUT, for now, is all paperwork. Need to take 17 mandatory items and around 6 optional items to formalize my inscription. And then, take an aptitude test on Math and English (as you probably will realize, I will ace English, and flunk Math). Which is on 6th of June. At 7:00 a.m. Check your calendars and see how annoyed I am xD

In any case, I feel like good times are a comin'. Terminator Salvation premieres here on Wednesday, so I'm all giddy with excitement
