Madden NFL 25 PS3 Review

Omg!

What a disappointment EA Sports...shame on you!!

The video game called "Madden 25" ...which celebrates the 25th anniversary...is crap.

Let's talk about the graphics please because I'm about to throw a tantrum right now. What happened to better graphics? I mean, did you guys really take the 25 years seriously and instead of going forward, you decided to go back?!...

It looks horrible. This Madden 25 looks lile it should have come out in the year 1999, not in 2013. I really hope that there's an update soon, like right now. And I was anxiously awaiting the release of this video game.

I have also noticed a few glitches that did not sit well with me, such as the taking forever to start. C'on...why does it take so long!

In my rating book I give it a 3 out of 10. And only 3 because the game play is the same.

I don't get it!

I am Broke, No Money and Depressed about Not having Money

Not having money is an ongoing issue that is screwing us all.

I remember one time when I was watching Paris Hilton's former reality TV show and she spent $1,000 for an ice cream. ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS! I am so tired of looking at reality shows or rich people just waste their money on unnecessary things. Yet there are people suffering without one bread to eat.

I am LIVID right now on this subject. No one understands how it is to count your pennies just to see if there are enough so you can go buy a loaf of bread to eat for the whole day. Hell, I used to even cut the bread into 3 pieces; one for breakfast with water, one for lunch with water and one for dinner. No one understands unless they go through it.

Of course many people start from the bottom in order to achieve the level of money that they have now, but for what? to waste it, that's what's for. But is their money, you might say.....yes! that's the problem with humanity....selfish ass people.

Don't you think that if that 1% of the richest people in the world were obligated to give AT LEAST a tiny portion of their wealth to society, the world wouldn't be a better place? Less robberies, less assaults, less killing.

And then we wonder why are there people out there committing suicide because they are going crazy with all these creditors calling. It is ridiculous.

And let's not even talk about the lottery. Shaking my damn head!....have you noticed that the only people that statisticly win the lottery the most are either elderly people from one specific ethnicity? Ummm...if you haven't then do your research. It is amazing how the lottery higher ups don't do anything about the fact that RICH or PEOPLE WITH MONEY play the lotto and win. Like that Engineer who recently won 1/3 of the powerball....an engineer!!! a man that already has money!!!

Oh, and am I forgetting students? The ones who have to take out a loan and pay with an arm and a leg just to survive? Let me not even mention the cost of books....um...they are expensive as hell. How is a biology book worth more than the damn class!!!!???? And then the media has the audacity to say that the minority hardly has any education...OF FUCKING COURSE THEY DONT!...if the schools keep raising the prices of tuition.

Urgh...sometimes I find certain people disgusting...selfish...and every word that is there in the book.

Poor people help poor people, while the freaking rich just keep getting selfishly rich...and who's fault is it? You tell me...

Who can I trust?

When I was a little girl everything was so simple. I used to worry about not wanting to go to sleep early, not wanting to wake up early for school, homework...etc. The simple things.

As I grow older I realize that our worries get worst in different ways. For example, trust.

For some reason people just keep betraying this wonderful things we call trust. I never understood how men did it without ruining their conscience. Right now, this is one big issue that I'm dealing with. Trust.

My partner of 3 years has betrayed my trust quite a few times. He does end up telling me a few days later because he cannot live with it on his mind. Lately I don't know if is worthwhile staying with someone that you don't trust.

Is like, everytime they go out we keep wondering what they're doing, with who and where. Is amazing that we cannot have a peace of mind because of someone else. Is like we're living on a rollercoaster of emotions. I don't know about you but I hate it.

I wonder....is it better to leave a distrusful relationship or continue second guessing and putting stress on myself just because of love?

Life is Crazy.

I Will Not Judge....

Today I understood why some people go crazy when they have debts, why they decide to leave and never be seen again, why women sell themselves for money, why people steal…etc. I can go on but there’s too many ways to make money that people consider immoral. But I learned that unless you’re in that situation, you cannot judge.

But a woman can choose to go to school or find a job; she doesn’t need to sell/prostitute/strip dance for money! You might say. Well, it sounds easy doesn’t it? Consider this…school is expensive. Government hardly helps people with low incomes because they “make too much”. By too much I mean a person making $20,000 a year is making too much. They don’t consider rent, food, transportation or anything that needs to be bought with the $17,000 after taxes that a person receives. So how can a woman pay over $2000 in tuition (considering that she applies to community college) and still be able to eat? Impossible. Yes! Impossible unless you’ve been through it, don’t judge.

If finding a job was as easy as people’s words make it seem, there would be no unemployment percentage in the United States. I am a graduate individual with much work experience, yet I’ve sent out so many resumes and no one has yet to call. Why? Because out of the hundreds of job applications that an employer receives, they can only choose one. Job hunting sort of like playing the lottery but with better luck. But in the meantime, your bills are due and you need to pay them. So what do you do?

Exactly. Nothing but stay stressed.

This is why I decided that I will not be judging individuals anymore based on the type of way that they receive their money. No stealing though. That’s like desperate measures but taking things from others is not a good idea to move forward with life. Just wanted to share that :)

OMG George Zimmerman and Trayvon Martin case...

This case should have been done with months ago. But I have my own opinion on this.

WARNING: If you think that you will be easily ofended and/or say rude comments then please stop reading NOW. Please. This is not for the weak hearted.

I think that they should put away Zimmerman for the death of human being, YES, I totally agree. But people, we were not there. We were NOT with Zimmerman when he called 911 to report the disturbance, we were NOT there when Trayvon Martin was shot, we were NOT there.

There are always two sides to a story and unfortunately for this story, one of the witnesses is dead, which is the victim, Trayvon Martin. Now, this is why I came to my own conclusive opinion, I put myself in Zimmerman's shoes:

I am strolling through the neighborhood when I see a person walking suspiciously. I'm battling the feelings of calling the police but I do it anyways because that's what I'm supposed to do. The police tell me to stay away but I don't want to because by the time the police arrive, the person might be out of sight so I choose to  walk behind to keep my eye on the person. The person notices and we get into an altercation where this person breaks my nose, punches me in both of my eyes AND hits my head to the point where is starting to break....I'm scared out of my mind not knowing wether this violent person has a gun or maybe even a knife. I remember that I have a gun and *gun fires*!

Now, people are quick to get into the racial topic....everything and anything that goes wrong in this country people blame it on either racism or guns. Are you kidding me? 

Statistically, Hispanics are the victims of hate crimes 66%, neighboring African Americans with 70%. If it is about race, Hispanics are less likely to target an African American person. If it is about race, African Americans are 2.25 times way more likely to commit racist-hate crimes. What if it would of been the other way around?....would you have thought the same way about Trayvon Martin?

I understand that people are hurting. I understand that Zimmerman should be going to jail anyways, I mean, if my opinion is right, then he should of shot him in the leg or something, not shoot to kill. 

Whatever the story is, I wasn't there. I didn't see Trayvon smashing Zimmerman's head just like I didn't see Trayvon being shot. I didn't. 

No one should die by another human being's hands....NO ONE. Therefore, I hope for the best for the two families....RIP young soul.

Steps to take when He cheats

Questions that I've recently been asked...

Why does my boyfriend/husband keep cheating on me?

Ummm...because you let him! YES I SAID IT!!! You let him. But how, you may ask?...because the first time that he cheats on you shouldn't even consider that cheating. It should be taken as he broke up with you the moment he did that. I understand that men work differently that women. They are wired differently and yes, they may look at a booty and stare at boobies all they want, but when they actually CHEAT, it goes on to another level. That means that he lost all respect for you, he didn't even consider your feelings when he did it, it means that his mind was set on having intercourse with this other person instead of you, that means that no matter which way you put it, he PUT HIS DI*C into another person when you were both supposed to be in a monogamous relationship.

What should I do now that he cheated?

You should pack up your things and get the hell away from that house/apartment that you both shared. YES, as hard as it may seem, HAVE SOME SELF RESPECT. If you don't have any children, wether you're married or just living together, just follow these steps:

1. Pack up your stuff. LEAVE everything that belonged to him, if he gave you a shirt, leave it, if he gave you a necklace (unless is expensive, which you can pawn) leave it. Get the point? The point is that you should NOT have to stay in a place that you both shared. why? Because if you stay, it will take longer to forget since everything in that house will remind you of him.

1.5. If you do have children, I still advice that you pack up and go to a relative's home. Tell them is temporary and that you just couldn't handle the situation anymore. Let them know what your ex partner did. Your kids are better off with you separated than with a house full of negativity.

2. Don't have too much money to afford an apartment? Um...go on craigslist and crash into a room for less that $150 a week. Doesn't mean that you will be staying there forever, but is a temporary place where you can relax your mind and deal with all the emotions that you're going through...by yourself.

3. Download an application called "MrNumber" or any other call/text blocking application and block his number. TRUST ME! This will work wonders! Even if you know his number by heart, I know you're stronger than calling him or texting him. Everytime that you find yourself about to call him, remember that you have your SELF RESPECT first. If you are ever completely ready, and I mean after it's been months that you have not heard from this person, go into the application and either delete all his messages or read them, is up to you. But in the meantime, while you're hurting, BLOCK HIS ASS from every sort of communication that you can. emails, facebook, instagram, twitter, cell phone, etc. Not only will that lying bastard be wondering how is it that you have not reached out to him, but you will feel empowered that you can control your actions.

4. In the meantime, FORCE YOURSELF to go to the gym. I'm saying to force yourself because I know how hard and devastating it is to lose a relationship that you thought would last forever. You will not want to do anything after that happens and is ok for a day or two, but don't stop your life for someone who didnt even appreciate you. He did not stop his. Give yourself a goal that you want to look as hot as possible. It will be the best revenge, not only for him because he'll be so pissed off at what he did to you but for you, because you will feel better. If you're not a gym person, go to the movies by yourself, go to a restaurant and enjoy your kind of food, go to a museum and learn new things, move counties and meet new neighbors, find a hobby that you know you'll love, volunteer in a good samaritan activity, it will lift up your spirits knowing that you're just trying to relieve a heart break when there are so many other people that just live to get food for the next day.

5. Do something different :) ....dye your hair another color, cut it or put some extensions on. Go to the nail salon and pamper yourself. Search online or go to the store and change the way that you dress. ACT HAPPIER even if you don't feel like it, the muscles in your face will tell your brain that even though you're been through a lot, you are still smiling which must mean that you are happier. Keep those endorphins going!

6. When you're home alone don't overthink the situation. Remember that you thinking about it will not change the outcome of what happened. It will do you no good. Instead, find things to do that will help you FALL OUT OF LOVE. Yes, you can fall out of love. In case you didn't know, love is a process endorse by chemicals in our body. When those chemicals are altered, love is different. How can a person fall out of love? Simple, join a dating site and put your hottest picture as your main pic. Go out with friends and set yourself a goal that you will at least talk to one of the guys there. Read a book or research online ways that you can dissappoint the reality of that "love" that was lost. 

To be honest, about 98.9% of you will not do any of these steps because you're simply scared. You're scared that you will never find anyone like that person, you're scared that you will end up alone, you're mad that you invested so much time with this person and now you gotta just walk away. Honey, it happens to all of us. There are couples that are together for 50+ years and they still get a divorce after all that time. Or haven't you read about that 90 year olf couple that recently got a divorce after 60 something years because the husband found out about an affair that his wife had in 1946?...no, well then that should be an inspiration to you because no matter what anyone else says, you are worth much more. You were born alone, you will die alone...or wait, what would happen if you died before him? Do you really think he would stay single for the rest of his life? um no. Men usually last about a year grieving and then is onto the next chick. So value yourself more and I guaranteed that others will value you as well.

Honesty?!

Urgh! I dislike this subject so much!

My main reason is that people nowadays hate the truth. If you read my first post then you should already know that I hardly have any friends because of my honesty. I am too blunt, too frank, too sincere...whichever word you want to take, go ahead but to me, it all means the same. I sometimes wonder why in a world that demands fairness, people don't like to hear the truth, which is why I'm starting to wonder wether this is the reason of why the government doesn't really like to share too much with the public. I mean DUH!

A life example of mines so that you can understand what kind of honesty I'm talking about:

1. Once I had a friend, let's call her Andrea, that was close to me. We told each other almost everything, our families knew each other and we did so many things together. To make a long story short, Andrea got to a point that starting on Thursday nights she would go clubbing with her little kinky dresses and then getting home in the morning hours of the next day because she had gone home with some dude that she had just met.

I remember it was my 20th birthday and we were supposed to go to a lounge with a group of friends. It was a tradition since High School to go out on our birthdays and celebrate. Her birthday was months before mines and we had a blast, it was all about her just how it should be. But on my birthday she cancelled on me because she had a date that night. I was so mad at her that I decided to have a talk with her. I told her that she was ruining her life by sleeping around with every guy that she met and I didn't want to see her in a demise later on in life. Mind you, she had already had an abortion behind her mother's back. Basically, after that conversation, I never saw or heard from her again. I called her several times but she never picked up. So with me being a good friend, the friendship was over, just like that. Sometimes I wonder if I should of stayed shut and let her keep continuing to ruin her own life to the point where she was just a piece of trash. Hmmm....


As you can see, I spoke too much. And for speaking too much is why I hardly have any friends. Sometimes I feel bad because my honesty and bluntness makes others just shy away from me. Even though I do have a few friends that love my personality because they know that I will never tell them a lie nor anything similar just to make them feel better.

This world needs to shape up. Living in a lie in not good and that's what us humans choose to do. We contradict ourselves in a way that it makes us not even understand OURSELVES. When we look at honesty in a positive way instead of a negative way, we see things that we didn't know existed. Instead of my ex friend taking time to reflect on her behavior by what other's saw in her, she would have chosen a better life for her but she didn't. The last time I knew of her which was not that long ago, she had 3 children by different fathers, living off welfare and her body deteriorated. She was so beautiful and now she looks like a 50 year old woman that doesn't take care of herself. I feel so bad for the girl but what can you do.

My First Post

Maybe in a few years I will sit back and read everything that I will begin to post in this blog. Until then, I'm sure I will be writing a LOT of things that I have in the back of my head. If you are an outsider, other than me, reading this then I have to warn you about spelling mistakes. Not that I commit too many of them but don't start judging just because I mispelled a word here and there, we are not perfect and I am not going to pay anyone to proofread my writing. So let me apologize right now for those future spelling mistakes....sorry.

Also, if you get a little too touchy with your emotions when you read the opinions of others, then maybe you shouldn't be reading this blog, AT ALL! Be warned that I will say anything and everything that is on my mind about a certain thing because the last time I checked, I have my rights and freedom of expression. For those who still do not understand, freedom of expression is my right to say my ideas and opinion using my OWN MIND to anyone that wants or doesn't want to listen. If you don't then once again, you are welcome to not read any of my posts.

A little about me:

I was born in the Dominican Republic and came to the United States when I was about 7 years old. I was technically alone with my dad in this country. He didn't want to put me in any bilingual classes so I HAD to learn the English language one way or another. It was hard! By hard I mean that I was always getting in trouble because I didn't do homework (didn't know a word of what the teacher was saying). Imagine how hard it would be for you to go to another country and all the classes that you take are in that country's native language. Well yeah, put yourself in my shoes.

Aside from that, I had two best friends; one was chinese and the other one was white. Ha! To this day I still do not remember how we understood each other, but I never cared about races or nationalities. Well, fast forward.... I lived in Brooklyn, then in the Lower East Side, then I moved to the Upper East Side and now I'm in the Bronx. For a child to have gone through so many changes, it was pretty difficult for me, but I always got through it.

Now, I am a young woman and as I begin to analyze my life, I opened my eyes to a realization that I never saw until a few months ago. I am too honest.

Too honest??!!?? I know this is the question that is lingering deep within your brain because you don't understand what I'm saying. Let me explain.

I hardly have any friends. Most of my girl friends have either stopped talking to me, I stopped looking for them or the friendship just plain faded. The pattern that I see with everyone that I encountered is that in one way or another, I communicate my opinion to them and they don't like it. I will explain further in another post.

For now, I am not married, do not have children and live practically on my own. Yes, I have wonderful people in my life and even though my life is not perfect, I am pretty satisfied with it.

Tootles my friends, until the next post!
