Can`t sleep so I`ll blog about Prison Break and The Legend of Zelda.

Read at own risk, slight spoiler so um, either watch Prison Break`s first two seasons before reading this blog or just continue to read and be spoiled! ;)

While trying to sleep in my new apartment (yeah, I moved again...) my mind was racing a mile a minute but the one thought that kept reoccurring was how similar Michael Schofield and Link are peculiarly similar.

I`ve been re-watching Prison Break with my boyfriend (who I moved in with. I`m so in love :) So far we`ve reached the end of season 2. Some parts of the show I remember and other parts have stayed in my brain since the episodes first aired!

Anyway,so Michael Schofield is the main character in the Prison Break series where he tries to break out of prison (no duh!) to rescue his brother who has been wrongly accused of murdering the Vice President`s brother. And Link is the main character in a popular video game series called The Legend of Zelda where he`s a regular boy minding his own business then he finds out he`s the hero of legends past who has to save the world of Hyrule!

So here`s my comparison. Michael Schofield seems to be a quiet man. Although he`s a genius who later becomes hardened from his trials of saving his brother part of his personality is still child-like. The way he expresses his hopes and dreams of justice just seem too innocent but not in a tacky way. I find that part of his personality is what Link`s character is exactly what it`s suppose to be.

In the popular video game series, Link does not say a word so part of his personality is left to the gamer`s imagination. And according to my imagination Link is like everyone else where he has issues about being the so-called hero of time but yet with the help and encouragement of his fellowmen he presses onward to complete his ultimate mission.

In the Prison Break show you get to see Michael Schofield`s romantic interest. Although it seems like they can never truly be together kind of like Romeo and Juliet, he`ll still sacrifice his freedom for her just so she doesn`t have to experience the same pain that he felt while in prison. Link shadows Michael Schofield`s traits by never giving up to save his people especially Zelda. It`s been debated whether or not Link and Zelda are romantically linked but if you watch the TV cartoon from back in the 90s it`s pretty obvious that they are dating but never get a chance to give each other a romantic kiss. Anyway, I`m focusing this blog on the video game series not the 90s cartoon. After Link meets the Princess Zelda and predicting her destiny he`ll always fight to make sure her kingdom doesn`t fall. Wow! That`s also romantic.

PAYPAL WARNING: I've just been phished!

Hi all,

This is just a warning where if you've received an email that looked like it's from PayPal it probably wasn't.

The email asked me to add a debit card because it would help them to identify me whenever I used my credit card online because, according to the email, that people have been stealing credit cards and opening PayPal accounts with them. I almost bought the email right before I right clicked the email's link that it wanted me to use to add my debit card information and it was http://www restore1 us/. I don't want to write the actual link just in case someone accidentally clicks on it.

Anyway, I went to my PayPal account to see if the email's claims were true. PayPal didn't have any pages dedicated to opening a debit card account so I then went to their link about fraudulent emails and here's the link if you think you've been a victim of a phishing scam:

Protect Yourself from Fraudulent Emails

I forwarded the phishing email to PayPal and they sent me a quick response saying that my instincts were right.

Whether it's a call, email or snail mail, try to confirm whatever the message claims. It could save you from a lot of pain.

Whoa! I just sold my fridge, washer and dryer!

So I'm moving again. It will be move #5. And again this move seems to be going smoothly. I was a little stressed because I couldn't seem to find any buyers until a nice good old American man who's a project manager for a telecommunications company stumbled upon my online craiglist's ad. And he wanted all 3 appliances! And he even had 3 other guys move them all out within half an hour. I did only sell them for $250. But that's okay. After I sell my stove to my future brother in law I'll get all the money back from when I first bought the appliances. I'm super happy!
