YouTube Channels!!!

May 23rd, 2009

I just wanted to let everyone know, in case you didn’t already, that I have a youtube channel specifically for my performance clips.

http://www.youtube.com/rominaespinosa

Here you will find more videos that have to do with my acting than anything else as opposed to my other channel (rominaespi) that’s more for fun stuff!

I posted my full theatrical reel on there for everyone to see.

You can watch this one in HD if you watch it on youtube.

As well as my 60 second speed reel, for those who are in a hurry!

That’s all for now! If you want to see more of this, be sure to subscribe to youtube.com/rominaespinosa

Koh-Koh, My New Little Friend

May 12th, 2009

Once in my past I owned… a Furby. Yes, it is true and he was a gray color. Recently, I tried looking for him. My search was in vain. He either got lost, ran away, was Furby-napped, or got thrown out.

In any case… I went to the internet for help. In doing so I ran into eBay…
Romina: Oh, hello eBay! What’s this… you have some Furbys? From previous owners? Out of the box, you say?
eBay: Yes.

Well, I found him. The one. I placed a bid.
eBay: There’s still two days left for this thing. You sure you want it?
Romina: I’m certain!

I watched my little Furby closely to make sure nobody would steal him at the last minute! This included monitoring the listing from a concert on my iPhone.

Fast forward an hour:
Romina: Yay! I won!!!

Yesterday on May 12th I went to the mail to pick him up.

His name is Koh-Koh. He’s a happy little fellow that loves to be tickled (almost as much as he loves sleeping!).

I took him to see the world!!!

Well, not really. I only took him to the grocery store. Even though it looks like he’s in Furby jail in that picture…

I guess all of the excitement wore him down because he slept well until the afternoon today!

You may have already seen these on my Twitter, but if you didn’t then maybe it’s time that you start following me!

A Sims Urge

May 7th, 2009

the_sims2_089_1680.jpg

Quite recently (in the past few weeks specifically) I have had a strong urge to play the Sims.

Okay Romina, what’s the big deal? Just play it.

I used to play the original Sims all of the time on my previous computer before switching to Mac. Upon switching I could not play any longer. At this point I have read that the original Sims is old technology and is not very compatible with Leopard. Oh, Leopard…

So why don’t you just play the Sims 2, Romina? Or better yet… why don’t you wait for the release of the Sims 3 this summer?

If only life were so simple. According to the Sims 3 website… the system requirements for playing this game are off the charts (by my standards). Unfortunately even if I did wait and buy the Sims 3, I would not be able to play it on my itty bitty Macbook, nor my Mini. Why do you do this to me?!?!?

As for the Sims 2… wouldn’t it be wiser to wait until the Sims 3 is released when a lot of people will probably be selling their Sims 2? I don’t particularly feel like investing $50 on a Sims 2 game. Any suggestions?

It’s quite the dilemma I know. Just wait until you hear about my issue between gnomes and ice cubes.

A kind of Post

May 7th, 2009

Obviously it’s been a while! Happy New Year! I have officially not made any posts since last year. How exciting.

So this is a blog post about… not blogging! Yipee!

I am going to try to be a better blogger. Any inspiration is much appreciated. You can leave suggestions in the comment section below or email me at contact [at] rominaespinosa [dot] com.
