Finally, It's December

Finally, it's December. 


        Lately, I know I haven't been extremely active with the blog. It was very important for me to be 100% focused on my last semester this fall so I could be good and ready to transfer to my preferred four year college in the upcoming year or so. It has been hectic but I feel very happy with the results I've made these past couple of years. To believe I'll be aiming for a Bachelor's and possibly my Master's brings great joy in my life. Although I may have been extremely busy, I need get the chance in my down time to watch many movies, play a few video games, and make sure to hang out with a couple of friends. The last week of the semester is next week and oh boy is it full of exams! Thank god for being caught up in all my courses or I don't know what I'd do. I'd really just like to take the time to sit in my computer chair and have some fun this weekend before I crack open my reviews and textbooks.
Luckily however, for once part of my family and I will be reunited for Christmas up north! I'm extremely excited to see all my relatives where there is actually snow on the ground. In Texas you don't really seem to get much cold weather or snow for that matter. Mostly the state is either in the 30-60s during winter with some rain storms and mostly ice. Ice makes Texas people drive like morons along with rain, but we'll leave that one out for now! As of this fall I will no longer be a full-time student and will hopeful be raising up some money for my life down at the college campus. I've never lived on campus or in a dorm for that matter but I think it should be a fun experience and a great chance to make some new friends and some friends within my area of study. It goes to show that working hard really does pay off in the end regardless of how much time is spent working towards your goals. For the mean time I will try to make a few blog posts here and there and maybe come up with some ideas for certain day blog posts as well. For the mean time anyone is open to add or follow me on any of my social media sites that are listed down below! Take care everyone, see you next time.

Finally, spring semester is over.



After I graduated from high school, I've found it very important to continue my education. Currently, I am a full time college student at a nearby community college. I intend to transfer to a 4 year university once I've completed the core curriculum. Finally after about 2 1/2 years, I'm about ready to transfer. This upcoming Fall semester should be my last at my community college and hopefully I will be able to get into Texas State University in Round Rock, TX. I'm so excited to see how well I've done these past few years.




Besides school, my pug Lelou had her first litter of puppies, 6 to be exact! Lelou went into labor at around 4 am on April 8th and wasn't finished delivering until around 8 pm. Our first born was the only one with the same fur pattern as his mother. Next came our big girl, who has the thickest black fur of them all. After our older boy and girl were born, two more girls were born along with a little brother, and ended with an unexpected girl runt, Luna. Sadly however, Luna died two days later. It was really hard for me to lose little Luna after I spent literally every waking minute trying to get her to feed and to stay alive. It's always hard, I'd say to lose a little animal friend so it took me some time to get over her death. My boyfriend and I decided that we would be selling the puppies due to our current living conditions. As stated in my first post, I've got quite a few pets for living in a small apartment. Zach decided that he wanted to keep the one he felt would fit in with the group so we picked Frankie which is the one who looks a lot like Lelou. Below are a few pictures from the millions I've taken this past month. Currently, Luna is buried next to a few flowers in my parents garden and she has continued to grow in our hearts.

Avid Gamer

Disclosure: I am in no way advertising any of these games, nor am I receiving any compensation for mentioning these particular ones. These are just a few I've played throughout my childhood.



Now, I myself am into nearly any sort of game whether it can be played on a laptop or a console. I personally own a PS3, Xbox 360, and an original Xbox, I've previously owned a few other consoles in my childhood years as well. I'm not against males at all when it comes to gaming on mmorpg's or virtual world's, I actually encourage it to the fullest. However, I feel that the female part of the gaming community tends to hide our identities a bit due to the perverts, etc etc. I honestly have never hid that I was a female whilst playing any game, and because of it I have made a lot of fantastic friends who I've grown very close to. I've not only grown close to people all around the world but I've also had the chance to play games with my family, including my sister and even my father. 

From the age of about maybe 7 or 8 my father introduced me not only to the world of video games but also to computers in general. It is because of him that I've decided my career path into graphic design along with being a permanent member to the gaming community. Around the time I was introduced to games, my father let my younger sister and I join him on a game called Everquest II. I grew to love this game so much, that I found that many were similar. Now Everquest was my all time favorite by far game to play and quest on etc, however many things changed through out the years and I broadened my game experience to more and more places. There were games that attempted to push many of these games to the brink such as World of Warcraft, League of Legends, and even Aion. Many games nowadays are nearly free to play, however back when you had to pay to play I would say hands down was the best time to play. Most popular games now are much too "laggy" to play all together, and quite honestly have become repetitive.

Most games I play now are really big on customization, such as building or designing your own clothing. I will admit, as a female gamer I can say with convidence that I am such a sucker for questing and grinding in order to level. I feel that if you're going to take the time to level all day and night long you can make a name for yourself within that community and therefore make more friends and become good at whatever you do on that said game. I'm not much for being the quiet one on forums or skype chats. I like to keep things interesting and fun for all those who want to be included and because of my cheery attitude about things I'm very helpful with planning. I like being in clans, leagues, guilds, chats, whatever you prefer. It brings me closer to people and helps me become a better player. 

I am extremely big however on quests like I stated before, Fiesta Online is one I've grown very fond of over the years however, there are some mean and inconsiderate human beings who have access to the internet who have pushed me away more towards private servers etc etc. Anyhow, I have been pretty big on both Aion and Perfect World which bring the fantasy-fiction side of me out. Within Aion you have the ability to fly, etc. and Perfect world as well as many other games I've seen you can become different races, and customize how your character looks. 

For now I know I will always want to play video games and enjoy them to the fullest, regardless of if I have to play by myself or learn to make friends with anyone I can. I'm a female gamer and I'm damn proud of it. Below I'll post a few screenshots from my past and present gaming experiences! Until next time everybody, see ya!

New beginnings and a powerful past.

2014 here you are, and here I am!


I may not be much of a voice to the world, but what I do know can be useful in some ways. I've been through a lot in my life which is not much of a concern to the general public (or anyone for that matter) but what I've seen throughout my life can never be forgotten. As a young adult I feel it is my responsibility to help provide a little insight into the life of the teenage mind and what my life consists of. 

Before I get into all of that, I'd like to introduce myself. Hello all who have randomly come across my blog, although I'm new to blogging myself I do follow many and have decided to take on the challenge. My name is Kaylee Kuroski, I'm a 19 year old full time college student living in Austin, Texas. I currently reside in both Austin and Round Rock, Round Rock being where I grew up mostly. I was born in Cheyenne, Wyoming on the Francis E. Warren Air Force Base. Both my parents were in the Air Force, my mother being a nurse and my father a pilot/police officer. Originally my parent's are from up north, mostly in Pennsylvania (mothers side) and Illinois (fathers side). I have one younger sibling who seems to be maturing more each and every day.
As mentioned previously, I also reside in Austin, Texas with my beloved boyfriend of one year. It's a tad different for me, but I've learned to get used to going from one city to the next. I met him at a summer job with my mother graduation year of 2012 and ever since then we've become inseparable. We have two kitties together, Safara and Jamba as well as his Schnauzer Chippewa (named after Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin) and my Pug Lelou. So, that's as much as you all should need to know, I'll be attempting to blog probably about once or twice a week for the beginning of this. It'll be a transition as I get more views etc etc, but I'm in no rush to start having an audience. So until then, see you next time!
