Thanksgiving Break!

Tuesday, November 25th, 2008

Hiya everyone,

It’s Thanksgiving break. Yay, I got an extra day (tomorrow). The official break is from the 27th to 30th. My professor was so nice to cancel class tomorrow. Hehe. Lately I have been so busy. I had a research paper (8-10) to write and also another paper due on Tuesday (but the Professor suddenly pused it back to Sunday even though I worked very fast and hard on it Monday). But, it gives me time to revise. I also have another paper due next Friday (Dec. 5th).

I am excited for next quarter (I know I haven’t even finished this one yet but registration for winter quarter has come around) and if I get the classes I want, I will only have classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays. (Last quarter, I had classes everyday!) My sister is so jealous because she has classes everyday next quarter. Of course, I will still have work on Mondays and Wednesdays. My boss wants me to hold a seminar to teach other people about CSS and HTML. What… I am no expert. That is going to be scary.

Wow, it suddenly started to rain and become windy as I typed this entry. It’s pouring pretty hard now. Scary…

I’ve been meaning to make a new layout for this site but haven’t got any inspiration to do so. However, I did start on a layout on Captured Fragments (which I haven’t updated since September *falls over*). I’m sure you’re all interested. XD But, I still need to finish it and code it. Hopefully, I will have it up by Thursday or Friday! That will be one of my goals for this break.

Aside from school stuff, I haven’t been able to do anything for fun. But, my sweetheart gave me my birthday present early (birthday – hint, hint). He gave me three FoxTrot (by Bill Amend) comic books: Foxtrotius Maximus, FoxTrot: the Works, and FoxTrot: Assembled with Care. I love them all. I have only finished two. Hehe.

Well, that’s it for now.

A New Month Already?!

Friday, November 7th, 2008

Hiya everyone,

Dang, November is already here. I have not been active in any of my websites. The Fall quarter is going by so quickly (still used to semesters). Well, I have been pretty busy lately – school, work, and life in general (and don’t forget laziness). My classes are kind of tough (so much reading…).

Work is pretty fun because it is web designing. For my first project, I had to code a site that was using tables to CSS only. I love how it looks. Haha. Then, for the next project, I had to change tables to CSS again but I had to completely do over the whole site – except for the images, colors, and specific little details. It was so much work especially since the site only uses HTML so changing the navigation or footer for every page is hell. But, anyways, it’s all fun and I like it very much! However, the job is kind of lonely .. I work by myself and have no one to talk to…

I started watching Ryuusei no Kizuna starring Ninomiya Kazunari, Nishikido Ryo, and Toda Erika. I love it. I find it really interesting and at a good pace, with its transitions between the past and present. Also, I am currently watching Kuroshitsuji (I hope I spelled that right .. too lazy to check). I also find it interesting plus Ciel is so cute. I love the relationship between him and Sebastian.

Well, can you believe that we have a new President? I was so happy and shocked that Barack Obama won. I was feeling really doubtful about it – but, luckily, Americans pulled through and voted for him! Although I would be happier if Proposition 8 (ban on gay marriage) did not pass. Sigh. My parents, mostly dad, were for the proposition -_-; I did not know they were so traditional especially since they weren’t born here.

That’s it for now. I really want to make a new layout for this site. So, hopefully I can do that this weekend *crosses fingers* (I do have a layout for Captured Fragments but I haven’t finished it or coded it!) Twenty-one more days until my birthday … hint, hint.
