Layout: Part Two

Last thing: I tried finding a new layout again... but didn't find one that I really liked.

*sigh*

Layout frustration

If you've visited this blog you can see I've changed my layout for a number of times. I was frustrated because the font color didn't look good, etcetera etcetera.

I finally found *this* simple one, and one that properly functions.

I hate the heat!

Particularly the heat during summer. My room gets very hot and you'll start wondering why the room next door isn't as humid as my room. My dad says it's because my walls are made of cement.

So, what has all this heat done?
I've been getting frequent headaches, not the migraine ones, but when I get them I become irritable. So tomorrow we're going to the opthalmologist (no, not the optometrist- he doesn't do surgeries, etc.) this week. I don't mind wearing glasses.


Ooh- or contacts :)

Challenging my creative juices

I feel like I've set a comfort level for myself with Photoshop- with regards to design especially. Therefore I'll try to do CSS. As I look and study this it does give me an HTML feel. For those who don't know what CSS or HTML means, CSS is Cascading Style Sheet . If you have a Blogger and have found Blogskins, the code you use when putting in a new layout is an example of CSS. And I want to learn THAT! I know basic HTML (which is Hypertext Markup Language) which is used for the internet.

I'll be practicing with photoshop using different brushes and shapes. I'll update some more!

Viola!

I wake up and open the pc to see if I can see my blog properly, and I can! Maybe all I needed was to restart it ^___^;;

Oh blogger...why?

I can't see my updates. I can only see them IF I "preview my template".

And they don't really have a group that people can really contact quickly. I browsed through the FAQ and the help-groups and whatnot and I still haven't found a solution to this problem.

It is very irritating. >_>

Something new- again!

I don't know exactly what happened, but I decided to change my layout just in case that was the problem. I couldn't see my recent entries. So... I changed everything.


By the way! Yesterday I got a haircut!

Rocker nurse going home

Yeah you might think it pathetic that I blog about American Idol. But what the heck, it's my blog and I love updating it.



Yup, Amanda Overmyer just got eliminated. I think that Kristy Lee Cook should have gotten eliminated. I've disliked her performances since last week. I was also surprised that Carly Smithson was in the bottom 3. What's up with that?!

Arrgh.

Summer... is really summer. It's really HOT around here. I've been getting really bad headaches, I would even call it a migraine. The pain is like having your head squished! A week ago, I felt like banging my head on the wall. But I didn't. As much painful as it was, I didn't exaggerate. It hurt- but not to the point of whining. Now I'm starting to feel some of the pain again...

Moving on

I want to change my layout again. It's not that I dislike my current layout in any way. It's not that I'm even tired of it. I think it's the creative person in me. I'm not sure what word to use. But I haven't found any new layout that I feel can replace this one yet.

The thing with blogskins is that there are a few (the popular ones) who are actually very good. Some layouts...look... cheap to me. I'm also picky with images. If I know that the image is stolen from DeviantArt, then I won't use it. I hate it when people steal artwork.

Honestly, I can't wait to get this blog filled! It's exciting!

I also thought about why people want to blog. I think a part of it is it's exciting to have your own space on the internet, and be able to manage and have control of it!

A new beginning

Livejournal and Blogger

There's stuff going on over at Livejournal. From what I know there will be a content strike. Starting March 21, 2008 livejournal users are encouraged to NOT post any entries to let Livejournal know that it is content-driven.

As I am not that involved with Livejournal (I post, but I don't know THAT much). I get news updates but sometimes I really don't understand what they're saying, or I'm not interested. So, if ever something happens to my livejournal account I'd still like to blog. Therefore, I created blogger.


Summer
I'll be taking up summer classes in ORGANIC CHEMISTRY (lecture and laboratory). Be cheerful for me XD It's better to take it now and get it over with than take it next year during the 2nd semester. I'm also looking for a job. It can be a summer job... or a part-time job. It depends on my schedule.

Layout
Beautiful, isn't it? I'm picky with layouts so when I found this one I was happy- am happy. I probably won't change the layout for awhile.

American Idol
Yes, I watch American Idol, or AI for short. And since I'm a Filipina it doesn't automatically mean I'm cheering on Ramielle Malubay to be the winner. If they say her voice is THAT good- then she should show it. I feel she's holding back. My favorite is Brooke White. I look forward to her performances every week. The week where she sang "You're So Vain", I had the song stuck in my head for about a week! I am also a fan of Jason Castro and Carly Smithson.

Anyhoo-- this is becoming addictive! I'll stop...


now. See ya!
