OK, I'm not gonna dissappear without notice this time.
I've finally decided to take yet another early vacation (the Easter week, so to speak). The protests still continue, and with the current state of the library, it's gonna take long before we go back to normal (no less than a month, I estimate). I'll leave the day after tomorrow first thing in the morning, tomorrow I'm gonna do some laundry and clean up my room before leaving, as well as paying this month's rent. Unless I get some kind of connection while I'm away, I'm most likely not going to make the second round of requests, so tomorrow I'll get done with the last two I have, and that's it for now.
Just in case, I decided to let my uncle and aunt know that I'm gonna leave and give them the URL of my university's facebook so they can stay tuned and let me know of any news that come up. Although, like I said before, it's almost unlikely that they're going back anytime soon. I feel really bad for the newcomers and the undergraduates, the formers because they can't begin, and the latters because they can't receive their titles and begin working. No doubt they're the most affected by all of this.
*Yawn*, that's all I have to report, people. Goodnight.

OK, esta vez no desapareceré sin avisar.
Decidí irme de vacaciones otra vez por adelantado (por la Semana Santa, se podría decir). Las protestas continúan, y con el estado actual de la biblioteca, pasará mucho antes de que las cosas vuelvan a la normalidad (estimo que no menos de un mes). Me iré pasado mañana a primera hora, para hacer algo de lavandería y limpieza general mañana antes de irme, y pagar la renta del mes. A no ser que consiga alguna conexión, lo más probable es que no haga la segunda ronda de peticiones, así que mañana terminaré con las dos que me faltan, y eso será todo por ahora.
Por si acaso, decidí hacerles saber a mis tíos que me voy a ir mañana, y les dejé la URL del facebook de mi universidad para que estén al tanto de cualquier noticia y me avisen de lo que suceda. Aunque, como dije antes, es casi imposible que surja algo nuevo. Me siento muy mal por los alumnos de nuevo ingreso y por los graduandos, los primeros porque no pueden iniciar, y los segundos porque no pueden recibir sus títulos para empezar a trabajar. No hay duda que ellos son los más afectados por todo esto.
*Bostezo*, ya eso era todo lo que quería reportar. Buenas noches.

RIP Granny.../Adios abuelita...
English/Inglés I know I haven't been active on the site for quite a while, and I hate to come and post bad news, but I hope you will understand. This has just struck me and my family, so I give myself the right to vent. Today, at 4:15 pm, my dear grandma Nicolasa Baptista, due to complications related to the Covid-19, passed away. She was the last one of my grandparents, and the last one among her siblings. She was what we could call the family's matriarch since I can remember, one of the kindest and most loved people not just by us, but also by everyone living in this neighborhood. She was everything you could hope for in a grandma: kindhearted and caring to all of us, children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren, but also scary when she was lecturing us. She was the strongest person I ever met, mainly due to her spirit, and even her age (89) didn't stop her from helping us with the cleaning and gardening tasks at thome. But in the past few weeks... well, obviously things got
Script format/formato script
English/Inglés How's it going? Okay, I hadn't had any chance to write any more venting articles, and this time around I finally found a topic to talk about. This'll be much briefer than others I've discussed, but I decided to touch it up since in the past days, some people have requested that I read their stories, but I reject them when I get the preliminary view and see they're written in script format, as if they were theatre plays. This isn't meant to offend anybody who writes or reads in that format, but beyond the typical critique of "professional writing shouldn't be this way", I'd like to explain why I don't like reading stories of this kind. Why I don't read script fics? Beforehand, and for whomever doesn't know or isn't familiar with the term, what does "script format" mean? Basically, it's that writing style where the speaking character's name precedes their dialogue, like in the script of a movie, theatre play, etc., and occassionally adding notes in parenthesis to clear
Rehashes, retellings, AUs
English/Inglés Hey again, peoples. So, after an extended period of inactivity, here I am again with another topic I've only touched superficially in several of my past venting articles, though more than venting, this time the reason to post this comes from the fact that I have plans to begin a story of this kind, and I want to avoid falling into the typical traps most writers do. You'll see soon enough what I mean. Without further ado, let's get started: * * * AUs, retellings or rehashes in fanfiction * * * I think any fan worth their salt at some point, with their favorite stories, wished that things had gone differently. The most common ones tend to be: a certain character who died in canon survives (or conversely, killing off one they dislike and/or got away from their punishment scot-free), to make official the pairing we like, to give the protagonist an "edge" that makes things a bit easier in the beginning, etc. Some have even gone further to write these stories to show what
And Eclipse is here.../Y aqui esta el Eclipse
English/Inglés So well, the Eclipse is finally here, despite all the complaining, protesting, whinning and all. The layout is a little confusing, I admit it, but... guess I'll have to eventually adapt to it. Anyway, this journal wasn't for anything in particular, just a test to see how hard it would be to write new entries. But if anybody wants to talk about something, I'll be around for a bit. See ya! /------------------------------/ Español/Spanish Y bien, el Eclipse ya está aquí, a pesar de todas las quejas, protestas, lloriqueos y todo eso. El layout es algo confuso, lo admito, pero... supongo que tendré que adaptarme a él eventualmente. Como sea, este journal no era para nada en particular, solo una prueba para ver qué tan difícil sería escribir nuevas entradas. Pero si alguien quiere hablar de algo, estaré por un rato. ¡Nos vemos!
