So who is Ms. Ice? Ola chicas! I'm 20 years old studying Biomedical Engineering with pre-med intentions. I hope to become a doctor one day. I decided to start making a site where I can vent and express myself freely here. I also love to , express myself, write poems, free-thinking, sailing, swimming and hanging out with friends . I hope I don't get anyone to mad with my ideas...You can always talk to me about anything, I am really friendly, unless you tick me off somehow...! <3Ms. Ice.&[;
...But certain people I cannot find myself to forgive. I cannot forgive my ex-boyfriend childish antics that he does while I work at his dad's firm (he comes there to annoy me). I cannot forgive the hater I had on this site. I cannot forgive simply because I don't know if I can.
This week between Yom Kippur and Rosh Hashanna, is all about forgiveness, but I am not sure how to forgive. My dilemma is when to forgive and when not to forgive, and when it's the right time to forgive.
This kinda reminds me of my Jewish studies class, where I read "The Sunflower," about a Holocaust survivor, who comes across a dying Nazi, who asks forgiveness, he just remained silent, and confused and asked everyone about whether his actions was okay. Mind you, he also visited the Nazi's mother, and never once told her of all the harm he done.
I understand his confusion, because right now I don't know how to forgive. The example above, according to my religion, is that the guy couldn't forgive, because the dying Nazi is asking just one person from a race (he ask to forgive for what he has done for all the murdering of the Jews).
I guess I am just not sure about whether or not I can forgive certain people. Does this make me a bad person? Or just a Human being?
Wow, I remember when I first created this site on May 26, 2008 right after I was finished with my finals, around 1 AM, out of whim, I created this site!
I never thought that this site would be a huge hit, in fact, I thought no one would care about what I thought. Instead the day this site was open on May 26, I ended up getting so many people recommending my site, as well as getting on the front page on xanga, which I have always wanted to have done!
This wouldn't have been possible without my friends, and you my dear readers. I learned to meet wonderful and interesting people.
No, I am not leaving xanga, I might stay to write whatever comes to my mind, however, like always school (or college in this case) comes first. I am going to have some killer classes, but I'll write when I can.
If you ever want to read my rants, or really my daily updates of stuff, check out my personal here, godessofvision
My personal is on friends lock, but just send me a friends request, I usually add everyone :)
I hope to come back soon, maybe write another September 11 remembrance, or whatever else that just pops in my head, just like how I done before.
Don't think of this entry as a goodbye but just a beginning for me!
If you have any topics you want me to write about, or rant about, or just discuss, drop a line here :)

Why the name Ms. Ice, like hell I am telling you my real name or my other sites :P Plus, Ms. Ice comes from the name of this blog. More will be posted when I feel like it....

What is it with Hate sites? I see so mant of them =[ I dislike sites that hate other people for no reason (and not even knowing that person...) What's wrong with society and the new trend on xanga...?
This is mostly a rant/opinion site about the Xanga trends that I hate here! I am a lot of things, like a layout maker, graphics, icons, quotes, banners, fades, and aimprofiles maker.
But I am not a Xanga Gossip person.
I absolutely think Xanga Gossip is stupid and pointless.
I also think certain trends in the layout business is annoying. I miss the old days when something as simple as this layout was actually considered, "hot" or "cool."
I'll post some more of my thoughts later...

Post 7: You would expect people in college to be mature...
Oh gosh you would think that people had nothing better to do but act immature. When I said I was on vacation, I meant writing in this xanga, but I came back because of something that happened to me.
In calculus class, our professor asks us to put the homework questions up on the board, and we get extra credit. Yay!
So there's this one girl in the class who decided to put up 9 problems on the board, when that homework had only 11 questions to do. So some of my classmates told the professor look at how many questions she did, and the professor decided to tell that person that the limit now is 2 questions per person.
So then everyone in the class figured to come early to class, who doesn't want extra credit?
So I decided to put up homework questions, and then write the numbers out so that other people could just work on the problems and save some time.
I realized that I didn't give enough space per problem, and scrunch up math problem work is kinda hard to see and is annoying.
Remember the girl that did a lot of questions, well apparently she was working on the problem on the board and erased the 5 and 6 I wrote up and all of the sudden she starts yelling at me about how rude I am. I told sorry and re-wrote the numbers up and sat down and went to read she kept coming back at me screaming at me how rude I am and everyone in the class (except me) kept laughing at her. Then after the third time she told me I was rude I told her listen what happened happen and there's nothing else that she can do, and I already went up there and re-wrote the 5 & 6 up on the board.
Then while going over my homework question which I did wrong [:(] she starts laughing at me. Now that's fucking rude, but you know what, I discovered that the girl is paranoid, immature, acts in a way that other people would not act and I decided that I shall pretend like she doesn't exist.
Later on I arrived home with a headache :(
On July 4:
I saw this :)
Go figure, I need to go study for my calculus class, on trig integrals...wish me luck! :)
To Audience: If you were in that situation, how would you handle it? Any other advice? In the comment please say post 7.
On the side note: Why I dislike gossip...
My professor for the Holocaust Class told me this story:
"Let's say you told one of your friends something bad about me, and you felt so guilty you came back to me and told me what you said. I will tell you to take a paper out, and rip the paper to tiny pieces and then throw that paper to the air. After that collect the pieces, and tape the paper back. You see how the paper is not whole. Gossip is like killing a person's reputation, it's never whole nor can that person's reputation can be fixed. Gossip essentially kills someone, and you can never fixed that. "
So that's why I don't gossip. Plus this is what my religion believes in. I am Jewish =] So don't be a bitch and and kill someone

Xanga's First Sweet Confectionery Shop Is Here With Mouth Watering Layouts You'll Love && Keep You Coming Back For More But Before This Site Can Open Up Theres Some Sweet Goals I Have To Reach Simply Just Comment And Subscribe :) (Just click on the link :))
I remember back when I started Xanga, around 2003, I had no idea how to make a layout. Seriously, my first layout was a blue background, by the help of the look and feel section, and finding the perfect blue color code in the background code for it. I was so proud of myself. Maybe because I had no idea how other people had nicer blogs than mine, but then again I don't like the fancy blogs, you know the flashy blogs, I believe people should enjoy reading the content of the blogs and not other stuff, I like the simple layouts. That's just who I am. Until there was a fight on a c-box (yeah...) by someone who said I couldn't put up a layout: here's the content form the blog:
"Who are you to demand attention? Are you so desperate for it?
If so, this would tip off that you are Ms. Ice.
Of course, Ms. Ice is too slow to put up that background."
OK, I was like what the fuck. Who is this? I know now who it is now. Anyway, when that happened, I decided to find any layout and just post it there to prove a point, you know what, I'm glad I did because that's when I started learning html codes in order to create layouts....OOOOH. I essentially said in your face bitch, when I posted the layout and then learned how to make layouts.
But I have to say, I remember being the beginner Xanga writer wondering how to help to get layouts. I guess a lot of newbies decided to complain, and thus Themes were created.
I must say I like the themes, but I also dislike the themes at the same time.
I have to say themes are good for newbies to have something nice to look at while at the same time bad for those who are in the layout business.
(I am stopping here today, and write more another day. I actually need to write down the pros and cons for the themes :P)
Next post: I know that this was a
long post... Is about the pros and cons of the Themes: More thoughts on it....(Update: next
week, not sure!) or next post might be any other thoughts I have.
Please comment below this post (and if replying to this post, say post 4 in the comment)! Ps. If you ever want to see my old posts just let me know :)
