Undivided Honesty
The BlogchiveArchive for Updates
Back to not having a life.
[Edit (January 23, 2008 / 1.43am)] Done with the new layout! It’s what you’re looking at now. *is proud* :p There are still a couple more tiny details to be touched up, but I’ll do them another time. I should go to bed now, I have to wake at 7am for lessons, lol! [/Edit]
So… college started again this week. It has been rather relaxing, I guess. It being the first week and not having much to do… yet, anyway. I do have some homework already though… And I’m learning some more stuff that I really like, publications wise, so that’s really good.
Also learning some video related stuff, I’m excited about that too.
We all got separated into our majors so we have new classes and lecturers. I like having new classmates. I love meeting new people, in general. ^^ Though, I mainly stick to two people whom I’d already known through old classmates. One of whom I got closer to after going to an FOB gig with.
Hopefully this semester would be awesome ones, though I’m sure I’d end up being very stressed along the way and not update much, haha. There are so many things that I want to do, that I already don’t have enough time to do. The supposed layout is still not finished and I’m not happy about that. :/ But I suppose, college should be put first, for the remaining 13 weeks of college. It’s the most important semester of all, seeing as I have to do my FYP. I pray I’d get awesome grades and get hired on the spot. :p
Resolutions wise, I’d already broken a few, haha. Such as, going to bed at 11pm daily so as to get enough sleep for the next day of lessons and also going to exercise at least twice a week to get fit. Ah well, I usually make them for fun anyway, because I know I’d never follow through. xD What about you guys? Broken any resolutions yet? :p
It’s time to party! …or not.
I know I hadn’t updated in a while but I didn’t realise that it’s been two weeks! Gosh, time sure flies! +_+
So, I have completed my internship. Yay for that! Haha. However, I still have one more outstanding project to complete before I am completely done though. That shouldn’t take too long, or at least I hope so, or it would defeat the purpose of me taking a week break before college starts again!
Hmm… I haven’t changed this layout in ages either, about half a year? Since this domain was launched anyway. :/ I have already started working on a new one so that should be up before I go back to college next week.
Also, I got the iPod Classic 160GB as mentioned in the last post.
I adore it, haha. I have almost all my media on it, and there’s still so much space left! I hate running out of space, so that’s awesome. :p
I joined the Official Anberlin Street Team, just because I am such a hardcore Anberlin fan, like my friends can vouch for. xD They’re a US Rock band, and if you have never heard of them but love Rock music, I say you should check them out. ^^
Christmas was not as eventful as lots of people and my presents weren’t fantastic but I got to spend time with my cousins which was nice. They can be so retarded sometimes, in a good way, haha. New Year’s was pretty boring too, I just stayed home all day like I do every year, but that’s alright. It’s no big, I don’t like going out on public holidays anyway. I hate crowds. :p I hope you guys had a great holiday though!
And it’s back to college!
-le sigh- I’m going back to college again tomorrow, after four months of holidays. How crazy is that!? After all that slacking! Goodness. It’s going to be tough, but I’m sure it’ll be a good academic year.
I’ll work triply hard and try and get better grades this time. It’s no longer a choice now. It’s more of a must. Subjects look good enough, as do the lecturers. No, they don’t look good, but they are good lecturers.
ANYWAY, point is, I’m STILL having mixed feelings. I want to go back, but I don’t want to. It’s all rather annoying, really. I wish I could just make up my damn mind, lol. I can’t wait to see my friends again, that’s for sure. ^^ They make college more fun than it’s supposed to be. Well, wish me luck! Haha.
Yesterday was my parents’ 22 years anniversary as well. They went for a talk in town in the early afternoon so I had time to bake brownies as a surprise before meeting them for dinner. It was my first time trying that recipe. It turned out pretty good, though a bit too sweet and sticky. I’ll be sure to reduce the sugar and butter for when my sister comes back from Melbourne in mid November.
I’m just glad they were happy about it, seeing as I always manage to disappoint them in one way or the other.
In other news, UH changed servers earlier this afternoon due to some problems with the other server. Thanks to the fast work of MJZ Hosting’s Katrina.
I wasn’t around when she moved it so I was pleasantly surprised. They are my first hosting company, so that definitely put them in my good books, haha.
Tag, you’re it!
[Edit2] *le sigh* So I do have a rather shitty timetable. T_T Well, at least I’ve got some good lecturers instead of the rubbish ones the last time, and some new lecturers. It’s definitely time to buck up.
Somebody form a cheerleading squad for me, please. xD [/Edit2]
[Edit] This morning, I got an email from TFL and I got accepted to build and manage the Acid Eyeliner fanlisting! I did a quick layout and a bunch of codes. So if you are a fan of Acid Eyeliner, an unsigned band from Sydney, Australia, do join, yeah?
[/Edit]
Since the last update, I have managed to finish the fanlisting’s layout and install the management script. Took too many tries, that Enthusiast, but it worked out smoothly in the end.
Not only did I finish the fanlisting, I manually emailed all 140+ of the old members to get them to join the new FL but about 50 (or possibly more) emails didn’t get through. I’m thinking it’s because it’s been three years since I started it and people didn’t update their emails and stuff. Ah well.
Also! Geeky me, I set up a collective.
Not only that, I also set up a media area. LOL. Ha, I’m surprised I actually did all that in such a short time. :p Yay me! LMAO.
I’m still adding more stuff every time because I’m still not satisfied. xD I’m very hard to please, lol!
I got tagged by Grace, so that’s here: Each player has to post 10 random songs that they have in their iPod, mp3 player, or whatever they use to listen to music. Take your ‘music source’ and set it to shuffle. List the first 10 songs, without skipping any (don’t be embarrassed). At the end, you must choose 5 people to be tagged and list their names.
The Used – I Caught Fire
Green Day – Good Riddance (Time of Your Life) (Live)
Nelly Furtado – Te Busque
Drake Bell – Golden Days
Bowling For Soup – She’s Got A Boyfriend Now
American Hi-Fi – Another Perfect Day
The Academy Is… – Neighbors
Say Anything – Ants In My Pants
Good Charlotte – Falling Away
blink-182 – Stay Together for the Kids
I’m going to cheat and tag everyone who reads this post, lol!
College starts again the week after next. I have mixed feelings about it. After four months of holiday, I don’t see how enthusiastic I can be about going back. I will miss my free time! T_T But I’m also looking forward to going back and making use of my time and working my brains. All this holiday-induced brain numbness is so not good for me. I feel brain dead!
I’m hoping my timetable wouldn’t be like shit. *prays hard* Then again, year three (the final year) should have lesser classes and more projects, right? x_x I need to do well this coming academic year if I want to go even further. Let’s just hope and pray that I will achieve my dream job as a webdesigner after everything, okay? Okay. Haha.
Ah, I can hear my sister talking to my parents in the hall via video webcam. She’s been in Australia since early February for a year and a half of university. I miss that stupid girl so much, haha. We are very much alike as we are different, I think, but that’s what makes her awesome and I love her a lot. :p She’s coming back in November, before her birthday at the end of the month. Pity she’s missing mine, which is in early October, lol! But it’d be good to have her home. It’s way too quiet without her around. She’s mental, I tell you, lol! <3
I love being a geek.
The past couple of days, I’d been searching for more plugins to stuff my WP with and you can see them all here, lol. A bit too much, isn’t it? :p I’ve still got a bunch of stuff to do around here, till I’m satisfied with it because now, I’m not. xD I’d also been thinking about adding a visitor section but I’m not sure how well received that would be… What do you think?
I recently reapplied (and got accepted) for the Ben Adams fanlisting at TFL because I used to be listed on there but due to a series of unfortunate events (LOL!), my listing kept moving around to different hosts till I totally gave up doing anything about reuploading the members list onto a new fanlisting management system. Now that I’ve got my own domain, I’ve decided it needs a fresh start. So I’ll be doing up a new layout and installing a new fanlisting management system for it. That sounds like a lot of work. Meh.
Inspired by Anberlin
Wow, my own domain. This seems rather surreal, lol. I’d always wanted my own domain, and I’ve finally got it, 5 years later. xD
Well, I’ve called it Undivided Honesty after pulling a poll, making my friends and family decide from a bunch of possible domain names. Seeing as one of my top favourite bands is Anberlin, that bunch of domain names all consisted of Anberlin lyrics.
Reyrey guessed it rather quickly.
Then again, she was one of two wonderful people who got me into Anberlin. The other one is Pinky. (Of course, those aren’t their real names, they’re my nicknames for them. :p) I met them on DougiePoynter.net (RIP) and they’re so much like me that it’s scary, lol! I love them both, for being them and for introducing Anberlin to me. ♥
I guess there’s no need to explain about the layout now, haha. What better layout to open Undivided Honesty than an Anberlin one?
This caused me days of headache before I found a miracle article to help me make a WordPress layout easily. Stupid me for not finding it earlier. :p
Well, guess that’s it for the first post, lol.
