30 Days of Buffy: Day 5
Day 5: Least Favorite Female Character
Dawn Summers. I know she was necessary and all for Buffy’s maturity etc. etc. but that didn’t mean I had to love her too. #1, she’s not even supposed to exist. #2, she was whiny half the time. #3, she caused too much trouble for everyone (hence, “It must be Tuesday!”). Although I did sympathize with her more in season 7 and...

30 Days of Buffy: Day 4
Day 4: Favorite Female Character
Faith Lehane. She’s the bitch who makes all the wrong decisions yet you can’t help but sympathize with. She starts out lost, lonely and broken and ends up having a purpose (she was awesome in season 7 okay). I love how her character evolved in the series (and in Angel), she was redeemed through her actions (and smarter decisions) but she still...

Day 3: Favorite Song Used In An Episode
“Remembering Jenny” from S2EP17, Passion
I was never attached to Jenny Calendar but her death was one of the most painful moments in the whole series for me. Probably because of how much it affected Giles. That scene, where Giles is all excited for a romantic evening with Jenny only to find her on his bed, dead. Really, what...

30 Days of Buffy: Day 2
DAY 2: FAVORITE EPISODE
Just one? :( Okay then it has to be Season 5 Episode 7, Fool For Love. It’s the one where Buffy asks Spike about the slayers he’s killed and it reveals Spike’s past from before he was sired and his adventures with the Fearsome Foursome. I’ve watched this episode so many times (along with the companion episode on Angel aired the same week woohoo) I...

30 Days of Buffy: Day 1
DAY 1: FAVORITE SEASON
SEASON 2! I don’t even know how many times I’ve watched this whole season. Of all our Buffy DVD’s, season 2 is the most “rugged-looking.” This season had everything and everyone! Buffy lost her virginity, Spike and Dru came to Sunnydale, Angel lost his soul and became hot and evil, Willow met Oz, Cordelia and Xander, Kendra the vumPIRE...

30 Days of Buffy
It’s been 7 years since Buffy ended but this show is still my ultimate bias. This show changed my life! But more on that on a separate ~*SPECIAL-BUFFY-POST*~ For now let me do this meme. I could answer this all right now (I really want to) but where’s that fun in that?

Ondoy Part 1: The Flood
This post is 9 months overdue. I wrote this a few weeks after Ondoy when the memories were still fresh. Ondoy was a life-changing experience for me, I thought I had to remember every single detail. This is part 1 of I’m-not-sure-how-many-parts-yet.
While holding our dog on top of a floating plastic container, trying to calm her down and looking for the center of the bed to prevent it ...

Pinwheelstars.com design process
This summer I signed up for an account at NearlyFreeSpeech.net. I figured I didn’t really need all the features usual web hosting providers had to offer (cPanel, Fantastico, etc.) and I never actually use up all the space so, in a way, I’d be wasting a couple of dollars a month had I signed up. With NFS, I pay for the space I actually use. I didn’t understand how things worked at...
