Process of customizing an xbox

We as humans are always trying to make the stuff we own cooler or more personal. This need actually lead to the modification of xbox 360 cases. First one should define what logo or design we are aiming for not been banal and how difficult it is to perform. Then it is necessary to print out a copy of such design and trace it over the xbox case. Afterwards using a rotary tool one is suppose to cut out the case and then sand it down so it has a better finish. The perfect finish for this modification is the installation of the plexiglass which is going to permit to see into the xbox console and the light from the LEDs to shine out. In the end one is left with an awesome modification and you don't need to be astute but are left with a haughty feeling.

Process of buying concert tickets

Buying concert tickets is always a hazard. First you must define which seats are worth it depending on the artist. If you want floor seats, you will have to convince and manipulate your insensible parents into buying them. Second, you must know when to buy these tickets. Logically you'll buy them the first day, but sometimes there's pre sales for fan clubs or specific credit card holders, if not, improvise. And third, enjoy the concert! This is no easy task, you will have to choose seats, buy them and enjoy the concert. Skipping any of these steps is inevitable during this process.

Edgar Gaga :)

Edgar is known for being a "Lady Gaga Freak". He cherishes this women like it's nobodys business, he is always saying that she is exultant and the best pop artist of our generation. So I asked this amicable person why is it that he is so in love with Lady Gaga. He answered, her music is very contagious and it's not known for being reiterated, she is a reckless human being that promotes individuality and compared or measured to other artists she is a very talented musician.

Doctor Who?

Doctor Who? It is one of the best tv series ever. The show is about the Doctor who’s an alien species call timelords travels through time and space in his T.A.R.D.I.S. which is a time machine in search of adventures. During his different reincarnations he has always traveled with a human female friend which sometimes is joined by a humane male, her boyfriend. The Doctor travels through time and space to see history as it being made before his eyes and most of the time to save the day because something is changing the course of history. Some characteristics of the show is that the Tardis is actually bigger on the inside than how it looks on the outside making it capacious, also the doctor with every new series under goes a transformation that changes his physiognomy but he is still is deference, dauntless, has affability and is never impertinent. In the end time travel and the incorporation of history characters like Charles dickens, Winston Churchill and Adolf Hitler makes it a fantastic show.

Animation

Animation is capacious of everything, it's about defying the laws of physics and everything thought before. It's about being endued and using fantastic elements. For some it is abstruse how animating takes forever. Impertinent people don't really understand how much time and effort it really takes. Animation is a process of expression, creativity and a wonderful way of entertainment.

Prom night and halloween

People might create a disputation over prom and halloween not beeing similar, it might be cantankerous for them to see their not all that different. One similarity to prom night and halloween night is that in both nights you get to dress up. When you go to prom you dress up for a formal dance. On the other hand when it's halloween you are the impersination of some character and put on a costume. People buy different halloween costumes every year since it must become trite to use the same costume each year, because it's a holiday and it happens once a year. While prom is not anually, but it is one night that won't come again. What people should savvy is that both events are ment for people to enjoy so we must be astute, make the most out of life and just live it.

Book vs Movie

Percy Jackson and the Olympians by Rick Riordan is a New York Times Best Seller series. Everyone thought the movie would have the same success. Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief, directed by Chris Colombus, the movie was a straightforward disappointment to every teenager who had read the books. Compared to the book the movie was missing its essence, story line and mythological back round.

Book vs. e-reader

Our modern society has evolve to the level that we have different ways to read the same book. The original or traditional way was to buy a hard copy of the book but now there are e-readers. The e-reader in contrast to the book can have hundreds of books in a compact design which gives it practically no weight on the other hand you would have all those books taking space all around your apartment. We have to note that an e-reader will never give us that familiar sensation that is actually holding a book and turning the page to see what happens next in the story. The develop e-reader design use a special e-ink which doesn't strain the eyes like old lcd use to do so it acts just like a book in that aspect. Slowly the e-readers have started to dominate the market and will eventually replace books but books won't disappear and there will always be the ones that enjoy actually having a hard copy.

Cause-Effect

Bringing up controversial topics in a group discussion can be a bad
idea. Even when speaking hypothetically it still causes disputations.
Some people try to be evasive about the topics while others simply
become braggart about it. Others at actually astute and can lead the
conversation in a smart and mature matter. At the end of the conversation the ones who are savvy will understand others position in the topics matter and take it as a learning experience.

Borders

Borders has closed down each and everyone of their stores, leaving the Puerto Rico in chaos. For those who think Puerto Ricans don't enjoy reading this has been proven wrong during the past few weeks as they have lost their only accessible store to buy their books. The loss of this store created confusion and sadness between gothic teenager who used to hang out in the manga section in the store and between the men who played chess in the cafe. Not everyone will accept it but the loss of Borders has affected us all in one way or another.

Cause and Effect

Sometimes my mom is in a bad mood or simply just mad at me. The reason why this is, is cayse I find it innevitable to keep her happy all the time. She expects me to do things and I don't always follow through. She gets mad due to the immense mess in my room. She says that the reason for the mess is my negligence. Another thing is, she finds me completely annoying sometimes, but the reason why I'm all up in her business is because I don't want her to feel excluded in my life. I don't want her to reach some sort of a loneliness state, maybe sometimes I get on her nerves but she also gets on my nerves as well. In the end all that matters is that I love her with all my heart even though she may nag me.

Speaking with Angel Morales

Angel Morales was my grandfather which died a couple of years ago.

Me: Hi granddad its been a long time since we last spoke.

Angel: Hello my little helper. Yes its been quite some time now.

Me: Everyone misses you a lot.

Angel: I know that my lost was really hard on you all since it was really unexpected but at least right after I died Angel Jose was born. How is he?

Me: I wish you could be here with us so you could see how good he is. He is so loving and respectful that he even surpasses me when I was little.

Angel: Yeah I remember when you were little. You were always helping me and your dad with whatever you could. That’s how you got the nickname “El Ayudor” (Little Helper).

Me: Now Angel Jose is going to become the new little helper since he is starting to act like me when I was little. I remember how I use to go fishing with you and my cousins. When he grows up a little bit more I want to do the same with him and my dad so he can go through the same experiences I did.

Angel: Yes. That’s a great idea. Fishing has always been a great activity for people of all ages specially kids since they learn new skills and have the joy of actually catching a fish.

Me: I’m also going to try and get him involve in creating things just how I use to do. That’s why you also call me “El invertor” o “Cientifico Loko” because I was always inventing or messing with some.

Angel: You always open something up to try and make something different from it or joint it with some different object. How are your mom and dad?

Me: Their doing well. Dad got fire from his work a couple of months ago but was able to get a job but its still not the same. Mom is doing well but she still has the occasional fight with my sister because of school.

Angel: Right she was always fighting with Paola to study. How is Paola?

Me: Well she isn’t doing any good in school right now but we are working on it. Also she is actually getting more mature about her friends and her family.

Angel: That’s good to know my little helper. I wish we had more time to talk but I have to go now. God bless you.

Me: I wish we had more time too. I love and miss you grandpa.

Angel: Always remember to take really good care of your mom and dad. Also of your sister and that little guy Angel Jose.

Me: I promised to take care of them always. Bye.

Angel: Take care.


A conversation with Walt Disney

Walt Disney was an American film producer, director, screenwriter, voice actor, animator, entrepreneur, entertainer, international, and philanthropist, well-known for his influence in the field of entertainment during the 20th century.He and his staff created some of the world's most well-known fictional characters including Mickey Mouse. Walt Disney died of lung cancer in 1966.

Nora: Walt Disney! Is it really you?

Walt Disney: Yes. Live in the flesh.. well not alive in the flesh, but you get what I mean.

Nora: I do and I guess you're still 'alive' when you've won so many Academy Awards!

Walt Disney: After changing the way we see animation forever it is impossible to exclude my awards.

Nora: Your Oscar for Snow White with seven small Oscars is adorable and well deserved.

Walt Disney: I found it lovely.

Nora: And a special occasion, I haven't seen another custom made Academy Award.

Walt Disney: The pleasure I got from Snow White was not the award, accomplishing the first hand drawn animated feature film and knowing people would continue to make more animated films was more than enough.

Nora: It's such a shame you died of cancer.

Walt Disney: Sadly, some things are just inevitable.

Nora: And now some negligent people believe your body is kept frozen in the bottom of Cinderella's castle in Disney Land while you were cremated which logically is the exact opposite.

Walt Disney: People these days, it irritates me.

Nora: Yeah, we're in desperate need for a change world wide.

Walt Disney: One of the only ways to achieve that is through animation, the good kind of animation not the one filled with subliminal messages.

Nora: Certainly. Animation is a tool that should be used to better society, not manipulate it.

Walt Disney: I'm glad you think that way. I must be going dear.

Nora: Wait. I just want to say that your simulations of motion with inanimate objects are breathtaking.

Walt Disney: Thank you, the only thing I hope people remember is that it all began with a mouse.
Juan Pérez was my grandfather, he died in 1983 due to heart failure. He was diagnosed with polio at the age of five and was one of the first cases of polio in the island. He had to live on the rest of his life in crotches and a wheelchair and yet that didn't stop him, I consider him one of my heroes because he never gave up.

Me: Hi grandpa, I'm really exited to meet you, I have so many questions for you.
Grandpa: Hello there, ask away my dear I will answer anything you ask me.
Me: Ok, first of all how did you realize you had polio.
Grandpa: I realized I had polio when I was five, I was running around playing, then I noticed my legs hurt. That's when my parents decided to take me the doctor which later on diagnosed me with polio.
Me: What happened then?
Grandpa: I spent two years in and out of the hospital, since I was one of the first cases of polio the doctors didn't know how to treat my condition. I ended up using crotches, at first I thought it was because of negligence of the doctor but later I realized it was inevitable due to the fact that it was not certain how to treat this condition.
Me: So, how did grandma come into your life?
Grandpa: We both studied in the same university so yeah it started there.
Me: Is it true that grandma's dad didn't approve of your relationship?
Grandpa: Yes, he was so against us being together he didn't assist the wedding, he didn't want Maria to have a hard time in life because of me, he was trying to be a good paternal figure.
Me: But you proved him wrong didnt you?
Grandpa: You could say something like that, I got to make my own company, was asked by the people to be the mayor of Toa Baja and I got to have a beautiful family with my wife.
Me: There's a line grandma says all the time, I can't remember what it was but she said it was your line, what was it?
Grandpa: It's "No hay liciados de cuerpo solo liciados de espiritu", I used to say it all the time.
Me: That's phenomenal, it's been great talking to you grandpa.
Grandpa: It was my pleasure.

A Conversation with Paul the Apostle

Héctor: Good evening, Saul, is it? It's a pleasure to have the opportunity to speak with you, who I consider to be a nearly fatherly figure.

Paul: Good evening, and, before meeting with the Lord I was known as Saul, but I am now called Paul.

Héctor: Oh, I'm sorry, I don't see how I could have forgotten such an important thing. How silly of me!

Paul: No worries my child, remember, there is only one who is perfect, although that shouldn't keep us from striving to become perfect!

Héctor: Very true! And, that is, in a way, what we're here to talk about... Well, to start off, could you explain in a nutshell what it is that you've preached to so many thousands across the ages?

Paul: In a nutshell? Well, I suppose I would have to say that I preach of Eternal Life through Christ, who died in our place for our sins and came back victorious over death and bought us a place in Heaven for all who in Him believe.

Héctor: Wow, and, do you truly believe that? That a man could carry our sins and come back from the dead?

Paul: Yes, I do. But it was no mere man, He was the Son of God and God himself.

Héctor: God himself... so, that is the reason why he could make miracles?

Paul: Well, yes and no. He was God made unto man, but he also gave authority to those he sent, so that they too could do miraculous things in his name, and later, when he rose to Heaven, He gave us the Holy Spirit, that is always with us.

Héctor: Whoa... that's quite a bit to take in at once. You also mentioned he bought us a place in Heaven... how much would that cost for us mortals?

Paul: Cost? nothing. The gift of salvation is free, although it isn't cheap. The thing is that He bought us a place in Heaven, but He isn't reselling, He's giving them to His beloved children, that is, those who accept Him into their hearts and repent their for their sins.

Héctor: Really? But... wait... sins?

Paul: Yes, sins.

Héctor: And, just, what could we say is sin? not using butter on your bread?

Paul: Heh, no, not using butter on your bread is not sin, though it could be rather sad. No, sin is something more. Sin is what we call anything that does not please our God.

Héctor: Right. So, anything that doesn't please God... is there a list?

Paul: A list? Well, actually there is, it's called the Ten Commandments, but when He came to us he told us a rule that would make it easier for us. First, we must love God above all else, and then, we must love our neighbors, and not just the nice ones, our enemies too.

Héctor: I understand loving God and our neighbors but... love our ENEMIES???

Paul: Yes. If we love God, and our neighbors, then we will follow his commandments because, obviously, you won't killed your loved ones or tell lies regarding them, no matter how minuscule they may seem, also, we won't betray the love of our Lord.

Héctor: Yes... But why our enemies? Do you expect me to love someone who's harm me? Who'd do that?

Paul: Jesus did so, as I've tried to do. If you love your enemies then you show them just how big God is. That not even in the face of death, we'd abandon His love.

Héctor: I see... It's not exactly easy, is it?

Paul: No one ever said it would, but there is one thing I can assure you: If you give your life to Him, He'll never leave you alone. He'll be there regardless of the situation. He'll give you direction, and strengthen you so that you may march on through the storms of life. You may get battered, but ask anyone who's really walked under his wings, He is there.

Héctor: Wow... I must say I'm amazed... well... suppose I wanted to... uhm... you know... give my life to Him... what do I have to do?

Paul: Let Him into your heart. Simply believe in truth of Heart that He died for you in atonement for your sins, your mistakes, and that He came back from the dead to reclaim your soul from Death, that he has a place for you in Heaven.

Héctor: Believe? That's it?

Paul: Yes, believe, but not just how you believe that one plus one is two, you have to trust in him, that He is the one road to Eternal Life.

Héctor: ... Well... I do... I choose to believe in Him... I give Him my heart!

Paul: Then I am more that joyous to welcome you as one of His children!

Héctor: And... what now?

Paul: Now you should find someplace to congregate. Be on the lookout for His voice, and know that no matter what happens, He will be there for you comforting and supporting you.

Héctor: Very well... Thank you! Thank God!

Paul: Thank God indeed! Well, it seems I must take my leave now. I shall be waiting for you
when you go see your mansion in Heaven!

Héctor: Goodbye Paul! Godspeed!... wow... Thank you Lord...
