Actually, I was back for than two weeks ago, but because of the server downtimes, database errors and Academy classes, I didn’t get to update this blog for nearly a month.

So, as I promised, here’s a brief report of the week spent on Cybertron.

Saturday, 14th November – Trip to Cybertron. Grandpa came to pick me up at 6AM and we were on the planet at around 7. A quick breakfast together and off to the Cybertron Star Academy, which is only open from 8AM to 12 on Saturdays. There were a lot of people already when we arrived, but gladly my grandpa’s notoriety (he’s a true legend on Cybertron! ) allowed me to advance to the first places pretty quickly. I got my papers and they told us to fill in at home, and get more documents done on Monday, since I was not a Cybertron citizen. Grandpa drove me home and I spent the rest of the day watching movies and talking to grandpa, visiting places and the Council people. It was a nice suprise when I realized they still remembered about me. !

Sunday, 15th November – Funniest day in my life! XD Grandpa got me to visit the Temple of Primus, where Cybertronians go to pray their god; we also visited the ancient Arena where prehistory Cybertronians used to fight, and the graves of the first Leaders of the Transformers armadas. Then we stopped at Mc Donald’s to eat (free food again!) and we went at the cinema to watch a movie called “The War Flowers“. Neat one, with a lot of honey romance to say the truth, but I thought it was very beautiful no matter that: it tells the story of a couple, a 17 years old Decepticon girl, Miralla and a 18 years old Autobot boy, who fall in love with each other in a time when the Great War is spurting hate and massacre. The protagonists come to realize that there’s no future for their love, and that they should be able to win over the events to make it possible. I cried at certain scenes (which I’m not going to tell here) and it really made me think how good is that Cybertronian wars are over for years now. People just can’t live with a war going on over their heads and hearts. :( Anyway, I spent a good Sunday with grandpa, and I’m still sad that I couldn’t stay over for longer.

Monday, 15th November – Grandpa got me to register all the documents I needed to enroll, including a Cybertronian ID card. We took everything to the Academy and the secretary gave me a list of textbooks to buy. I practically spent the day looking for these textbooks around the cities with grandpa, and we got most of them. I had to order two of them – Cybertronian Ancient History and Cybertronian Law – and I was told they’d be ready by the half of December. Gladly I don’t need them for now. ^^

Tuesday, 15th November – I finally enrolled! My papers, report card and Academy ID were prepared pretty quickly to say the truth. I bet it was grandpa’s presence to speed up the whole process, ahah! XD The rest of the day was quiet and nice; I visited the library of Iacon City with grandpa: it’s huge! O.O I bet I’m going to use it a lot next semester, heh.

Wednesday, 15th November – Last day on Cybertron. Grandpa took me to visit the starships and the spaceport library before driving me back home on his personal shuttle. I’m going to miss it all, especially grandpa all the fun. I wouldn’t have done it so far without him.

So, now that I’m home half of the week (I attend to classes 3 times per week) I’m getting ready for my first Christmas.

There’s a list of tech stuff I wish to buy this year, or on January in case I don’t get to save enough money; there’s some neat electronics wholesale prices online, and I’m having thoughts about it. We need a Satellite TV parabola for the Direct TV system my parents are buying us for Christmas, and a replacement remote for our old TV. We so badly need a new one! I could add miscellaneous stuff, but that’s something I’m having second thoughts about. I might need my siblings’ support for these purchases this year.

Even so, money-less or not, I’m happy. Happy and deeply thankful for the opportunity I was given on Cybertron to attend to this hystorical and notorious Academy that not so many succeed to enroll at. I’m forever grateful to my grandfather, who assisted me through the whole procedure, and to my parents for allowing me to take up this opportunity. I love you all. More and more. Thanks.
