Hiya everyone,

It’s a week before finals and Unfading-Scar finally has a new layout. The theme is EXPOLSIVE. It’s simple, plain, and uses CSS3 (well at least for the top navigation). The layout goes back to the original two columns, which I find more effective than the one column and footer (but not as original, I guess). This layout was created in PhotoShop 7 and coded in Notepad. The scratch texture was created by ChanDang. Other textures were created by me.

On May 31st, 2010, my family and I went to my cousin’s house to watch fireworks to celebrate Memorial Day. The fireworks were really beautiful and loud. I managed to take a few good pictures with my camera phone. You can see the fireworks on this very layout. I am going to put them up on Captured Fragments for others to use. But, for now, here’s a little snippet of what they looked like:

On June 13th, 2010, I graduated. I received my BA. It was very hard living my first job at UCLA. I met so many friends and had ton of fun experiences there. I am going to the place terribly.

So, remember that internship I received in Sacramento? I had to turn it down because my parents really did not want me to go by myself to Sacramento. Instead, I was able to receive an internship (which much like the Sacramento) within Southern California that is associated with the office that I work with, Center for Asian Americans United for Self-Empowerment. I was so relieved to get the other internship because it’s closer to home (parents are really happy) and it is the same type of internship as the Sacramento one. I was really nervous though because the second one required an in-person interview with six interviewers. Luckily, I already knew 2 of the 6 people (because I work in the office), but I am not good with interviews. I was told that I laugh when I’m nervous.

Before I go, I just want to introduce some “new” songs that I have been addicted to lately (in other words, my fangirlism) and perhaps you’ll like them too:

• w-inds. – Addicted to Love *LOVE, LOVE, LOVE THIS* w-inds. looks so good in the PV. Keita’s blond hair actually looks pretty good in this. As the song title says, I am addicted! XD
• Super Junior – Bonomana Ah, I love this song too, especially all of Kyuhyun’s parts. At first, I wasn’t too into it but after several listens and watching their live performances, I was completely hooked.
• VV Brown – Shark In The Water I recently gotten hooked on this song because of a Canadian TV show that used the song as a promo (see here). I never heard of the artist so I’m glad I found her. Her voice is nice *_*

So, that’s my fangirling for now. My taste of music is very random at times (Japanese, Korean, English – haha).

Well, that’s it for now. I’ve been pretty lazy since school ended though.

Hiya everyone,

I suddenly had time and inspiration to make a new layout (finally!). Time, because I am putting off my homework and inspiration, because I opened PhotoShop. It’s still blue XD. It’s pretty simple and mainly used PhotoShop’s custom shapes. But, I still like it.

This layout is pretty different from what I have been doing in the past. It is usually content plus column. But, I have been wanting to do something different – mostly the navigation. Although it might be the most efficient (because you’d have to scroll down and then scroll back up…), I do like it. Hopefully it won’t be a hassle for visitors. Also, the top links are a little different too. I have added the hosting page which leads to a new page for hosting. The skip down is to view the columns on the bottom.

So, what have I been doing? Basically, in my free time, I have stumbled upon this addicting and strange Japanese website (with some English translations) known as Poupee Girl! What is this? It’s an online doll site, where you post up your cute things (clothes, dolls, and whatnot) and you get ribbons. With the ribbons, you can buy clothes for your doll. I seriously find it addicting. I’ve been playing on it for over a month or so. And, to be quite honest, I am not your typical cute-loving-pink-shopping-addict type of girl. But, I have gotten others to become addicted to this website. So, maybe you’d like to play too? If you would allow me to refer you (you get a free shirt!), I will be more than happy to do so. See my Poupee Girl ;D

Besides that, I have also stumbled onto FMyLife.com! People submit situations that have happened to them in their life. It’s usually bad. I don’t suggest young children reading them – they involve adult situations sometimes. But, it’s a hilarious read (at the same time, you feel sorry for the people..) but I read it almost every day.

Sadly, those two websites take up most of my time that I haven’t really been PhotoShop-ing for fun.

Lastly, I know there are some errors on the new layout. I am still fixing them *kicks IE*. Thank you!
