school, work, & trying not to bash my head into concrete. Anxiously waiting for full time cold weather & Christmas in the air
what are you listening to?
anything Snapcube or Shenpai, really. With some Vinny Vinesauce sprinkled in
playing any video games?
not much, but when I have the time I play Cookie Kingdom.

little update!!
nothing remarkable has really happened other than me just wanting to blog!!
um...so I don't know if any one else has experiences this cold front, if you're in the United States, but it's FREEZING (literally) out there today! I put on three layers & wore a mask over my face to keep my face warm. Not complaining, though! I quite enjoy the cold weather!! I probably should've worn leggings under my pants, though--they have holes in them & my thighs went numb after being outside for a while.
It's supposed to be a tad warmer tomorrow but still cold cold. By Wednesday it's supposed to get back to how it was (lows in the high 40's-low to mid 50s & high to mid 60s or low 70s for the high)--it also started SNOWING!! Well--it was just flurries, but it's definitely odd for early November!! Makes me excited for December to get here.
also, if you guys haven't noticed, I put a change log on the home page!! I see them on a lot of other pages so I figured it would be a good idea! Plus I applied to join another webring that is for those who regularly update their sites!! So I thought it would be good to have something more blatant that shows what I've added or done to the site. Plus I sometimes do really small things or adjustments, though not big enough to warrant an entire blog post. Sooo there you guys go!
on a more personal note, I just had to take another accounting exam today. UGH. I got 20 points of extra credit, so I hope it does a lot of heavy lifting in bringing up my grade, but FUCK that was an experience in torture.
& might I add--we had an exam like a week ago, so we didn't get much time to go over the stuff the exam was over. To be fair, it was only 2 chapters the exam covered, but I didn't feel comfortable enough with the subject matter (I'm not going to bother you guys with accounting jargin) to feel confident about how I was going to do on this exam
NOW TO BE FAIR!! I didn't think I'd do good on the last exam I took in there, in which I made a 90 something, though I highly doubt I'll have the same luck this time around. I just hope I did good enough on it so I don't have to take the final exam (which is optional if you want to raise your grade in the class)
Speaking of school, I got to register for my classes for next semester today. I'm pretty optimistic about my classes! I'll only have 12 credit hours (which is the minimum to be full time at my university). Which I think I'll need after how crazy this semester has been. It looks likes I'll have 2 online classes & two in person. Though it looks like I'll have 1 class per day on campus, which is super sweet!!
Gives me more time to work! & with the...kinda sad results I got on the FAFSA (thanks administration), I'll need to start saving to make next fall semester easier on the wallet. Though I got a scholarship back after getting my grades back up, so that's a little more at my disposal.
well, that's pretty much it! I don't have anything planned right now, honestly? If you haven't read the last blog post, I'm entering the final stretch of the semester & haven't had much inspiration to do much. Not to mention ART BLOCK keeping me from working on art assets for the OC's (KILL ME)
but I've been trying to tweak things here & there & browse around for new webrings!! Plus I might start on working on OC site templates & have their sprites pending but boo who knows
well, see you guys around!! keep an eye out for new updates & stuff!
Nothing!! has really happened!! Sorry, I've been tired & busy! With the semester wrapping up end of this month & finals being early December, I've been running around all over the place. So I haven't had much inspiration to do art or work on OC pages. Though I DID add more sites to the homepage for you guys to check out! Not to mention little changes here & there on the site!
of which were
when you hover over some images, you get a little box that has text in it! I thought it was fun & helpful for different things! For example, if you hover over my little thumbnail to the left on this page, you get that little caption!! they're sprinkled all over the place!
added a new song to the song of the day. I was struggling with one but the song I put has really been hitting lately!! I don't usually keep up with modern music but I heard it on Tiktok & WOW it was SOOO good!!
the biggest things I did was cosmetic changes to the front page & about me page!! mostly because the front page has always bothered me a bit? plus it's the oldest, & I've learned a lot since first making it (lord is the formatting a mess don't get me started on that). Though I hope you guys like it & find it more pleasing & readable!!
I can't promise I will pick up once the semester ends? I'd like to enjoy actually taking a break, but I'll definitely be checking here often & posting silly little blog posts like this!! Especially with the holidays coming up, I'm so excited!!
ANOTHER TOPIC! So I watched what is so, so far, for Fiona & Cake season 2 & I LOVE ITTT!! I loved season 1 so when they said they were making season 2 I was quite excited to see what they'd do with it!!
I wasn't the most die hard Adventure Time fan when it was airing? 1) I couldn't watch it without doing it in secret, my parents didn't like us watching it. They thought it was stupid. 2) I enjoyed it but I always had other shows I preferred watching more? I don't know how to describe it. But I remember when the Fiona & Cake episodes aired & I ADOOOORED them!!! (though I think that's how it was for a lot of people) So I'm pretty hyped they actually made a spin off of it, even if it's not EXACTLY those old episodes.
I won't discuss it yet because I know there's a lot of people that haven't been able to see it! I got impatient &...uh...watched it TOTALLY legally!! Violating the law is wrong! soooo I might discuss it once it's a couple weeks removed from the end of it. So take that as a sign to GO WATCH IT IT'S SO GOOD!!
Also I'm SUPER on track to get a New 3DS XL to mod it!! I don't know if I'll get it the next time I'm paid? I have a rough budget made for the end of this month & I don't know how much of my credit card I'll have to pay off by the end of the month. That's a big contender whether or not I'll buy it. Though I'm DEFINITELY getting a micro SD card & SD Card adaptor for my computer. Though, whatever happens, I plan to get it at the end of December when I get that paycheck!
Also I'm pretty sure I said New 2DS XL before? I was watching videos & reading some Reddit threads about 3DS modding & I kept seeing New 3DS XL was better CPU wise, plus has less issues with modding compared to the 2DS. Feel free to let me know otherwise if you've done it yourself! Though right now I'm trusting those that have done it on the internet.
That's super exciting! Plus I def plan on getting a better bluetooth adaptor for my iPod! It'll be directly from the website I initially got my iPod from, so I have faith it'll be responsive & good! My current one gets the job done, but getting my headphones connected it kind of a pain & sometimes I've given up because it was taking too long. Which...the point of it is to make things easier. So a revamp is in order.
ALSO I have airpod pros now? Okay, so there's a lost & found at one of my jobs, & I've been there since my freshman year (if I didn't change my major several times, I'd be a junior right now) & these airpods have been in there SINCE THEN. They had both pods in them, so I didn't see much point in letting them rot in there!! There were actually 2 sets in there that have been stewing in there for a LOOOONG time! I dunno how much I'll use them, but I'm using them right now because wearing my headphones after a while hurts my baby ears LOL
well, that's pretty much it for now! I'll see you guys around!! Wish me luck on this end of the semester!
hey sorry LMAO I spent Halloween kinda chilling. It's been a busy time of year with school & what not.
but if you haven't seen already--I have a new section on the main directory!! the random section!! it's basically a place where I can put sites that don't necessarily go with the main stuff on my page but I want to feature! these are more personal interests & background projects that aren't art, scripting/coding, or writing related. I've started off with 2 pages! Mostly cause these came to mind first.
these sites are (if you're too lazy to go to the random page) iPod Life & collections! iPod life if pretty self explanatory--though it's a guide to owning an iPod in the year of our lord 2025! Plus stuff that I used & where I got my accessories & the titular iPod. Then collections is...pretty self explanatory as well!! It's about stuff I have in my personal collections & what I want to collect in the future!!
I find them pretty cool! I know they're not for everyone so I don't expect them to be anybodies favorite but I feel similar crowds that are into that stuff come on here or make sites on here. Plus I'd like to see & hear what you guys do & collect!! I sent the iPod site to a discord I'm in at my university & they thought it was so cool! like they found it helpful & those that has one too gave tips, which I thought was so cool!! like that's what I want from doing this stuff!!
also guess who got PAAAAID?!? I get paid monthly so I'm SOOO happy after having...only...6 dollars in my bank account (okay I forgot I had a credit card payment scheduled & bought stuff then ended up having...6 dollars LMAO). Also I bought a new binder!! It's not here yet, but I've been using GC2B binders since like...before COVID. Though they've definitely gone down in quality over the years. The straps are too thin & with my chest size I get too much stress on my neck & shoulders.
sooo the people in the discord I'm in at my university recommended spectrum outfitters & their binders!! So I got one! I liked how wide the straps are so I'm hoping it'll be a lot better! I'm going to keep my current/old binder as a back up in case but I'm glad to finally be getting a new one!
okay I'm tired (it's 7 pm as I'm finishing this I know but grandpa needs to sleep & has to wake up for classes & work tomorrow) so I'm going to wrap this up
here's to a good November, & I'll see you guys around!!
there's nothing really new, but I wanted to blog since another week has ended for me!
I'm working on the resources page!! I wrote down on the notepad app on my computer different stuff I've used to make my website! Not to mention some tips & tricks I used while creating it as well. You can never have enough tips & tricks!!
OC pages are still on hold! I don't know if I'll continue working on them once the Resources page is eventually finished? I'm still not feeling up to drawing much. Thus us the way the school grind gets to me! I'm surprised I was this motivated to draw for this long--I usually have pretty long droughts during the semester, so honestly this is probably the most I've drawn whilst class is in session!
Though I can only outrun art block for so long, unfortunately. It usually hits me with nothing I make coming out right. & with me trying to fix Willow's spinny & refining her PFP--I've really been like 'you know what? fuck it I'm taking a break'. Which honestly, I need right now. Not that school has been killing me, but it takes a lot out of you, you know? Plus I'm trying to stay on top of things with having 2 jobs & personal responsibilities & all...
but I had a pretty good Friday, all things considered! I worked this morning, it was really cold outside (a good thing) so I was in my element! I then had an appointment & my advisor saved me a pumpkin from an event I couldn't make it to because of work!! so this afternoon I stopped by Walmart on my way home, bought some acryllic paints & brushes, & painted my pumpkin!! (carving is a sensory no no for me)
PUMPKIIIN!! Aren't they handsome??? I'm so proud with out they came out!! I'm not an original person, & these tiktoks with pumpkins like this have been driving me crazy--they're just so silly!! So I had to do it.
there's another campus event next Thursday where they have a BUUUNCH of pumpkins & let you paint them!! Although I have an exam & work--I plan to eat then run to get a pumpkin, & then to work! I think they'd understand if I was a little late to participate in an event (my job is literally where they make & run these events) so then my pumpkin will have a smaller friend!!
Well, I gotta get back to working on that resources page!! I'll see you guys around!!
Thor's page is up, & I've redone the art gallery!!
I also added & redid some stuff on & to the home page & about page!!
Whyyyy did I change the gallery site? well, because the original was, in bluntest terms, ugly as Hell. I hope you guys think it's a lot nicer! PLUS you can get a closer, clear look at my pieces!! I find that VERY exciting, especially since that's supposed to be like...one of the biggest draws to my site is my art--you know?
Also, if you haven't seen already, I've joined a webring!! I have another application pending, but I'm a part of the Sapphic webring!!! I want to get more involved in the Neocities community, so what's the best way to do that than with joining some webrings?? I also put in an application for the Neo Creatives one, but I'm waiting for a word back.
I also added two more questions & answers to the little questionaire section I have on my about me page. Figured I should disclose specifically what games & anime's I enjoy.
Also about Thor's page, I was struck with a bit of art block & burnout so I'm putting it off so I don't make it worse, but it's pretty much complete besides for that!! Because of the art block thing, I might be putting working on OC sites on hold? It shouldn't be for forever, but I'd rather slow down a bit rather than keep going, get disinterested in it, & stop for MUCH longer
On a more personal note, I finally got my progress report grades in!! my fucking Macroeconomics teacher waited till the last minute to submit them (ironically my least favorite class). I have A's in ALL my classes...but that one. I have a D+ in there. I need a C to make candidacy to progress in my major next year. It's so ANNOYING!!!
I'm hoping I can squeeze by, but don't have high hopes for my exams in that class. My professor is just horrible!! Worse comes to worst I'll just have to retake it next semester & finish my Gen Ed's. Either way, I GOT MY SCHOLARSHIP BACK BITCHES!! I JUST HAD TO GET DOCUMENTATION I WAS DEPRESSED & CHRONICALLY ILL!!
& aaaall that money will be going to my rent thus the pain of being an adult. Least I won't have to lose so much of my paycheck in the future! Well, for like...3 months. Which is still a pretty sweet deal!!
also, I get paid next week!! which is SUPER exciting!! It's not like I'm broke right now, but it gives me a little rush of dopamine--you know?
Also I'm working on the comic page!! It's reaaally rough right now, & there's honestly no point linking it if there's...nothing to really look at, so I'm keeping it functioning in the background for right now! Though I might make a landing page at some point because I plan for most of my stories to be comics, anyway.
well, that's pretty much it for now!! see you guys around!!
sorry for the drought, I just haven't had much motivation, nor need, to write!! Though I've gotten a bunch of things done, so I figured I'd catch you guys up to speed!!
I literally JUST finished my oc Victoria's page, & I finished another oc's, Rae's a little while back!! So please, go check them out!!
Also, if you haven't seen the message I put on the activity page, I FORMALLY APOLOGIZE TO PEOPLE WHO ACTUALLY USE THE LIGHT MODE VERSION ON THEIR COMPUTER!! I didn't realize it was sooo fucked up. I'm actually presenting my website tonight for a club thing so I was checking if you could see the site on school computers. LOW & BEHOLD MOST of my sites were not looking right!!
I know I'm pretty much talking to the void, but it makes me wish someone let me know sooner, I feel so bad!! I wonder how many people I detered with the sites not looking right. Oh well, least I know what I'm doing now!!
We just got off of Fall break here at my university!! It was...Monday & Tuesday, so I considered it more as an extended weekend. It was nice, nonetheless!! I got caught up on chores & slept a whole bunch. I've been thoroughly exhausted, so I desperately needed it. So we're pretty much back to the grind till Thanksgiving break--which is the 26th of November & we'll resume classes that following Monday. Though finals & the last of classes aren't that far behind--the 2nd of December being the end of the semester.
It's so weird that the Fall semester will be over soon! Hell, I already picked out what I'm getting my brother for Christmas! (we do secret santa since we don't have a bunch of money individually) I'm planning on getting him plushies of Cain & Kinger from The Amazing Digital Circus! I know I'll be going over the budget we agreed on for Secret Santa, but I don't care. I want whoever I get to have a special Christmas! (it's my favorite holiday, afterall!)
I know I know, "let Halloween pass before you gush about Christmas!", I'm sorry! Time is just moving so fast! Plus I'm not planning to do anything for Halloween. I have class & I didn't have the chance to buy a new costume, money has been tight with having some new responsibilities. Hence the early shopping for Christmas lol
Well, I know I've been working on just OC pages, but that'll probably be the way things go for a while (also that's most of my reason for making this site is showing off the stories & characters I'm working on & developing) &...if you aren't aware... I have QUITE A FEW OC's. especially for my main story right now. Though I've been having a lot of fun making them, & I hope you like them!!
Well, that's pretty much it for now! I have to get back to school work & working on this site!!
I'm not AS exhausted this go around, but I'm still pretty pooped LMAO
I just wanted to let you guys know, if you haven't seen already--that another OC page is done!! for my character Thomas!
I also added a new section to the OC pages!! it's a text box with more information about the character!! they're lengthy but they're supposed to be there if anyone wants to comb through it all. You basically get the gist from the 4 scroll boxes above!! I just thought they would be a cool inclusion for those interested in learning more!!
but that's pretty much it for the site updates!!
on a more personal note, I finally got paid! but, since I am an adult with adult responsibilities--my paycheck didn't last very long. Well, it's not ENTIRELY gone but MOST of it is. Which makes me so bummed!! Ugh--it can't be helped, because I need to, you know...eat & have somewhere to sleep LMAO but it's just soooo lame!!
I did want to get myself something extra though!! I went to the mall yesterday after class & hit Bath & Body Works for some perfume!! I wanted more "Vampire's Blood" because the last time I went I only got a small bottle to try it out. So now I have a big bottle of it!
I ALSO was on a mission for something fall scented!! I DESPERATELY need to smell like a fall breeze, & the workers were really nice pointing me in the right direction!! I got this perfume called Champagne Apple & honey & it's INCREDIBLE!! I'm hoping it'll summon Fall weather to finally hit where I'm at UGH. I'M TIRED OF THIS HEAAAAT
well, that's pretty much it for now!! I'll see you guys around!!
it's Monday, & I wanna go back home & curl up in my bed. this is such BULLSHIIIIIT
anyway, even though I'm exhausted--I have been INCREDIBLY productive!!
Willow's site is entirely done, Brooke's site is up & finished, & the site map is done & up to date!!
yes yes hold your applause. Willow's spinny was such a fucking pain because I think I redid it like 3 times. Brooke's came out BEAUTIFULLY, which was a relief, but it pissed me off after Willow's LMAO
also, if you've seen the site map--you might be wondering "this is pretty basic". IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE, I PROMISE! It's to provide ease of traversal across the different spots on the site. If you guys have any suggestions to make it any easier, just let me know! I made sure to hover my mouse over each of the links to see if they'd be big enough. Spacing was super important lol
I'm working on the next oc site!! I started on assets yesterday afternoon. His page is going to be interesting, because he's an old man compared to the teen characters LMAO! I love him a lot so I hope you guys enjoy the site as much as I am!
ALSO!! I found a basic java script thing so I can have background playlists on the oc sites!! (I also have it on the D.T.T.K.I.F site) I just thought having one song playing over & over would get old. Plus with music being an important thing when it comes to my inspiration, I thought it would just be appropriate!! They're not super long--like 5 songs long. Though I'm super happy I figured it out & there's more music playing on the sites!!
also I'm SUUUPER excited to get paid tomorrow!! my paycheck is pending, & I have only 3 dollars in my bank account right now (YIKES!!) makes me wish I worked over the summer but I also wouldn't have gotten so bored that I make this website!
well, that's pretty much it for now!! keep on the look out for all the new things!!
it's been a little bit!! sorry, it's not that I haven't been working on anything, I just haven't had much to update about!! Well--personally wise. I just felt like it was pretty unnecessary to just put a one line blog entry of 'hey this thing is done'.
Well, Ollie's page is done & accessible through the OC page!! You'll be able to see his handsome thumbnail right beside Erin's!
Willow, who's thumbnail is already up but there's no link behind her page, is almost done!! I just have to do her little spin gif for the side of her page. Otherwise, cosmetically & code wise it is done!! I plan on starting on the last the chaotic 4, Brooke's, page when I get out of my last class for today (which I'm in right now lol).
If you didn't notice, I have added a "site map" option to the main Aisles directory. Though it has not been made yet, so don't go clicking on it. I checked everywhere to make sure it didn't change too much to the page flow. Though do let me know if it did do a fucky wucky LOL.
On a more personal note, things have been okay. I've been on the grind--it's surprising to say September is almost over!!
OH!! I WAS LOOKING THROUGH MY ENTRIES & FORGOT TO MENTION--I CAN ACCESS NEOCITIES AT MY APARTMENT NOW!!!
so expect faster progression on things!! I might get to the site map AFTER I finish Brooke's page. Though that's a big might. I'll see how motivated I am.
On a less fun note--my fucking bedroom WINDOW was LEAKING during the storm we had last night!!! They said they patched it up today while I was at school. So I'm HOPING I don't go back to a soaked bedroom (I would literally start sobbing). The apartments I live at said they're doing property wide inspections to check the integridy of everything. I know the issue I had was...pretty bad, so I wonder if it was a wider issue than me. We had other issues, but that was the only one I really cared about.
I'm just ready for the month to end--I'm working with only 19 dollars in my bank account & I only get paid monthly. It SUUUUPER sucks!! Doesn't help most of my paycheck it going to rent, groceries, & paying off my credit card (had to put groceries on there since I didn't have enough). Though I plan to go to the mall once I do get paid--I want to get some perfumes!! I NEED TO SMELL LIKE A FALL CANDLE!!! Plus I wanna get more of this other perfume I have--It's called Vampire's Blood!! It's from Bath & Body Works--if you're not aware (I've heard it's pretty popular)
alright alright--that's enough yapping. Please go check out the new stuff & stick around for more updates!! Class is about to start, & we're prepping for our first exam on Wednesday--UGH!! wish me luck!!
sorry for kinda the low energy post, but my childhood dog, Lady, passed away.
she was such a good girl, & she lived a long 14 years with us. We had a hunch this year would be our last with her, & I'm glad I got to spend my summer taking care of her & spending all the time I could with her. I gave her lots of love before I left for school, I just wish I got to see her one last time. Or have been there in her final moments.
we have a younger dog, Nala, who's 2 (I believe?) & when we got her she brought so much life back into Lady. Lady only tolerated Nala, but the way the two played was adorable & we have countless memories of the two just annoying the snot out of one another.
I'm just glad she's not hurting or uncomfortable anymore. Near the end her hips were bothering her, experiencing skin issues, & had a chronic ear infection in her left ear. We did our best to make her comfortable--bathing her often, getting her a comfy bed, & flushing her ears. Plus her pancreas decided to stop working years ago, so we had to change her food & give her these enzymes to make sure she was absorbing her food
though I have so many good, funny memories of her. & I couldn't have asked for a better dog. Oh how we terrorized her when we were younger. We'd put her in the laundry hamper, & she'd look so confused as we pushed the hamper around with her in it, like a car. When we'd put her on the trampoline we had & she would look like she was petrified. How she'd care for the baby bunnies in our yard & chase the birds away from running behind a bush we had in our yard--watching them all fly away.
I plan to get a tattoo at some point as a memoriam for her & other pets I may have in my life. Though she is my first loss, & I don't think it'll ever get easier. My folks & I shared a bunch of pictures & videos of her in our family group chat--which made me smile & laugh.
here's a picture of her! I don't remember when it was taken, but I'm pretty sure it was a year or so ago. she was such a pretty girl!!
hold your pets tighter today for me, they may only be there for a fraction of your life--you're there for the entirety of their's.
thank you guys for listening, & I'll see you guys another time
now bear with me, this is going to be a long one. it won't be ENTIRELY bad, but I'll let you guys know when I start on the more realistic/personal stuff!!
to start, SITE UPDATES!! there isn't much, but Erin's page is very close to being done!! It's pretty presentable now, & I'm pretty sure accessible through the OC's page, but I plan to add a few more things! It's funny how much I enjoy making OC profiles, but the moment I try to figure out what I want to put on them I draw a blank! I suppose that's how it goes!
I believe I will be updating a lot slower for now, if that isn't evident at this point. I'm just incredibly busy & when I get free time I'm usually catching up on household duties & homework. Other than that I might be sleeping LMAO. Though this doesn't mean I'm going on a hiatus! if that were the case, I'd put a blog post up to keep you guys up to date (or as much as I can)!
HALT!
beyond this point I will be talking about current events (in the U.S), & personal stuff. if you are not interested, just proceed & do your thing! there's no shame in that. So, if this is it, I'll see you guys dipping out some other time!!
read more
hello! okay, before I continue, I just want anyone who cares to know that if you EMPATHIZE/SYMPATHIZE/WHATEVER with C.K (if you know you know) & believe, to an extent, they didn't deserve what they got--GET. OFF. MY. PAGE. point. blank. period.
I do not support gun violence in any way, but if you have any idea of the things they endorsed--why does it only matter when it happens to him & not everyone else?
Furthermore, on a more personal note, I have been extremely paranoid being on campus/doing things on campus because of these events. My school has outright endorsed vigil's for this prick & has silenced those in power that have spoken out against this man's cruel activties. Not to mention preestablished campus organizations that align with his beliefs being more insufferable than usual.
I dunno if I'd describe myself as agoraphobic, though I definitely worry most people are out to get me, in some way. it's very irrational, but it keeps me from taking part in social activities or going out. Sooo current events have exasperating these issues. Though I'm trying to remain optimistic, or enjoying what little joys I have everyday.
Like I got to take a picture with a cute puppy today!! they were very sweet, a dalmation! I wish I could remember their name, but they were so excitable & gentle. makes me wish I had my puppies back at home with me.
Just, to whoever is listening who's also queer, disabled, mentally ill--or specifically targeted right now with the rise of conservatism. Know that you're not alone, & we're all fighting the same fight. Go out there, exist, have fun--the world may be hard right now but you're still in it, & you have time to make things change for the better--even if it's just a little. Not to mention enjoying the little things in life while things are rough. Keep those you love close, you never know what they could be going through right now
alright, well that's all for now!! I'll see you guys around!! much love!!
the OCs' & "Dedicated To The Kidz I Fought" page are officially up!! much excitement!!
Furthermore, I have two pfps up on the oc page for my characters Erin & Ollie!! I plan to get them them first when it comes to their pages.
I do want to make a site map--just because some sections of the site are reachable in certain sites. Just to make it easier for anyone that don't know where specifically to go! (I suppose I'll need to put that in the To Do list)
Unfortunately with my apartment wifi blocking neocities, I can't get to things as fast as I wish I could. So I usually end up having to update things while I'm at work or in class (without compromising my education). Which is frustrating, but I believe I'm managing it good enough so far!! Especially since my jobs are not very demanding.
Though if I keep up at this rate, I believe by the end of this semester I will have most of the sites functioning & pretty traversable!! I'm very proud with how much I've done so far, especially with juggling school, work, & personal antics.
Though I do believe the comics site will be one of the last things I get to. Mostly because there is no on-going comics right now, & I'd rather get to other aspects of the site where I will be more likely to update. This is not to say comics won't be happening, obviously not, but they're not a priority for a long while. I don't even know how I'm going to format the site for it when I eventually get to it. Guess that's just part of the process!
Anyways, I need to get back to class!! I'm writing this in statistics. I suuuure love frequency tables LMAO
if you haven't seen already, the stories page is up!
although, other than the main Aisles directory, the shelves directory only has dead links right now. Though I do plan to start on at least 1 story page & start thinking of how I'm going to format the OC's page!!
I've already been gathering assets, but there's a lot of other stuff that goes into it. Like what exactly I'm going to be putting ON the OC pages & what not. All that fun jazz
ALSO!! Some sites that previous didn't have music, do! I'll definitely have to remember all of them for when I get around to doing the resources page! That's definitely going to be a looooong one.
I dunno how much more I'll get to this weekend, but keep an eye out! I've got some homework to do & assignments due at the beginning of next week so let's hope I actually get to do more work on the sites!!
Well, that's pretty much it! see you guys around!!
well it's not like I've been gone forever lol but I thought that would be funny
if you haven't already checked, I put some art up on the art gallery & the art main site!! It's a little old picture but I've been wanting to display it! the other sections on the gallery page, other than home, shouldn't have anything to look at yet. I just don't want to break anything fundamental to the site trying to take them off. that template has already been fucky wucky with me.
while I'm writing this I'm waiting for my statistics class to start. scarfed down my lunch because I only have 40 minutes between leaving work & going to my first class. Well--I only have one other after this, but still!
I've been gathering assets for the future OC profile pages!! mostly background & stuff from Pinterest, but I'm excited & brainstorming what exactly I'm going to put on there & how I'm going to format it!
I've been looking around at other sites to get inspiration on how I'm going to format them! I've seen some SUPER cool stuff!! People are so creative!! I wish I was technical enough to do super neat stuff like that! maybe someday if I do this long enough!
well, class is starting! I have to take these notes! (I would do it by hand but my carpal tunnel is fucking me UP!! SO!! MANY!! NOTES!!!!)
it's been a little while!! not much has changed, really, I've just been so busy! I'm so tiredddd
but BIG NEWS!! I GOT THE TAG SYSTEM TO WOOOORK!!! YAAAAY
now...was it a matter of not reading all the notes the original creator if the template put on the HTML & CSS file? ...yeeeees BUT. I never said I was the smartest person! LMAO!!
I was tempted initially to contact the creator but they seemed like a busy person. Now I'm glad I didn't!! It was a note in the damn file! Well, least that's a good demonstration of the intelligence of the person making these sites (me...)
but everything has been good!! I've just been so busy with school & work! Plus I've been looking around to see what the best format it would be for my stories & oc pages. I haven't seen templates dedicated ENTIRELY for oc logging so I think I'm just going to have to get created with a template I've already used OR a new one.
furthermore, the art gallery site is in a rough state because...I've been too busy to draw. NOW I am gradually working on one & I have another I finished before school started. Though I need to crop it & make a thumbnail for it. It's far too long for it to be seem properly in the art gallery sight.
I might have my room properly decorated by next weekend! My sister is bringing back more 3M poster strips from home so hopefully I'll have enough to finish covering these walls!! I'll edit them to take out anything personal but it shouldn't be much that it makes the pictures uncomprehensible.
I wish the end of September could get here faster. I am going into September with only 60 something dollars in my account & I dunno what I'm going to do!! thankfully my car does great on gas mileage & my mom has been helpful making sure I stay fed, but it's still frustrating. I hate being broke, & I try to avoid it as much as possible!
I guess the broke college student stereotype was going to catch up with me eventually...
ALSO my fucking apartment blocked neocities on their firewall, I believe, & I CAN ONLY ACCESS IT AT SCHOOL!! WHICH IS SUCH BALLS!! they won't stop my coding POWERRR!!
Well, that's pretty much it for now! thanks for sticking around & look forward to all the stuff that may come in the future!!
if it isn't apparent, or this is the first blog post you're seeing, the fall semester had started at my university & I am EXHAUSTED & WORKING. ALL. THE. TIME!!
Not that I mind school or making money (I've been VERY lucky in my easy desk jobs), but by the time I get home at the end of the day I don't feel like doing anything but getting my pajamas, eating dinner, then curling up in bed!!
though I do still get time to do schoolwork at work, so don't think I'm neglecting my studies! Though to be fair classes have JUST started.
I'll have to share pictures of my apartment room soon, because I'm really liking how I've decorated it thus far! Though I'm going to have to get more poster 3m strips because I ran out! My sister, who I'm rooming with, is going home this weekend & my mum is giving her some more to take back with her.
I think you all would get a kick out of this, but on the first day of classes--I got mixed up on where I was working at the beginning of the day. I had a shift from 10 am to noon, which I thought was at the dorms. APPARENTLY NOT! so I had to bike QUICK over to our student union (which was too terribly far) & head to the 3rd floor. Though when I got in there the start on my first day, I didn't have my paperwork filled out! I thought that, because I've been working on campus for...almost three years, I wouldn't have to do any paperwork!
I was veeery wrong. So, thankfully, they gave me a ride across campus to human resources. All for them to keep me there for 5 minutes, check some things, & then give me a note on the back of an old business card saying I can work. I got a ride back but I ended up working 30 minutes later than I should've.
My coworkers were, thankfully, very nice & understanding, but lord I felt so stupid! Not to mention frazzled
Otherwise, I got to my classes on time! I got a little lost in the business building because apparently classes & professor offices are on different sides of the building (I was in the offices one). Then I had to get a good route on my bike back to the parking lot I parked in, but I forgot my extender to my bike lock!! THEN I forgot my WD-40 so my bike wouldn't squeak obnoxiously loud!
Well, that's why I was more prepared entering my second day. ...though I totally forgot my Ipad charger
well, we can't win them all!! I'll just have to be more prepared when I have to work a loooong shift like this!
oh yeah, while I'm writing this I'm at work. I only 2 hours left in my 5 hour & a half shift. It's been pretty chill!! my coworker even gave me some school shirts for me to have!! (yay, more comfy pajama shirts!!)
Okay this post is getting a little long & I don't want to keep you guys here longer than I have to. Wouldn't want to keep you guys from exploring!
hello again! I can definitely say today was a lot less overwhelmingly busy.
Work was longer, yeah, but it wasn't as busy where I couldn't work on anything. If you haven't checked already, the art page is up! The Art gallery portion is a little rusty? Only really in the cosmetics & the fact there isn't art up there yet. though they're a-okay to least look at!
Tomorrow I only work 2 hours, so I might get some more work done--but I do need to prepare for classes starting on Monday! I have laundry to do, a shower to take, & I HAVE to do something about my clothes still being in garbage bags LMAO
Sooo there may be no activity on Monday, depending on how work looks like! I work a shift in the morning at the dorms then in the afternoon for my federal work study job! Not to mention classes from 12 till 3 (which isn't too bad!). Helps my jobs are in pretty close distance & the dorm I work at is right beside the building I have all my classes in!
I dunno, I'm a little upset about it because it'll give me less of a reason to explore campus, but least I can get my biking in heading to the parking lot & to campus!
But I did some more decorating! I would've done more if I hadn't run out of poster 3m strips! Least my room is now more colorful! After I finished that I caved & took a 3 hour nap--I was exhausted! I haven't really relaxed since moving in so I suppose I needed it! I'm also glad I got some ibuprofen from my recent grocery order because LORD were my feet killing me! My hands are still somewhat swollen from moving in!
I'm just ready to get the ball back rolling again! I really enjoy college life & having that structure going to class, work, & getting to sleep at a reasonable hour! Makes me feel productive, even if I don't do much in a day!
Well, I'm going to try & sort through my clothes before I go to bed for the night. I have to wake up early again tomorrow to open the dorm desk!
yeaaah don't be surprised there was nothing for yesterday--
we got moved in! yay! Though now the unpacking begins & that's a boooo. I've got some stuff unpacked, but all my clothes are still in totes & bags, & I've only really set up my desk yesterday. Other than that everything is pretty much still packed away. The apartment is really nice, I'm very happy with us picking this place! The only real issue we had was connecting to the wifi, because how they wrote it on the paper was not accurate.
I'm at work right now--it's been & GOING to be busy for a while since the freshman are checking into the dorm (I work at the front desk & assist them in the process). Then I work all through the weekend & Monday. Though then Tuesday, Wednesday, & Thursday I work at my other job. I gotta make the money!! Though once the semester officially starts up everything should start to slow & I can work on the site (if I don't have assignments taking priority).
Though it helps this website will basically be my "social media" rather than some scam of a platform, app, or website. Like I have tumblr but only to scroll & look at stuff rather than post. Just feels like a waste of time.
I miiiight get to some work tonight but I won't make any promises. If I do update anything, it'll probably be small. I have to get as much organizing, decorating, & unpacking done as possible before the semester starts.
well, that's pretty much it for now, I'll be seeing you around!
I've definitely been a busy bee! for better or for worse.
not only have I been working on the site, I found this nice template for the art page! (I had to start over because I broke it somehow lol but least I know what I'm doing) I've been getting as much packing done as possible for when I move into my apartment on Thursday!
I also cleaned out my car--I have FAR too much to do tomorrow to have more things to worry about! Plus the day before I washed my car (only for it to get dirty again--I hate being parked under trees!!)
Though tomorrow I don't think I'll be able to update the site much or make another blog post. We're getting the cars packed tomorrow since our move in time is early Thursday morning. I have to wake up early tomorrow to bring last minute items downstairs, but I also have some appointments, too! I have an oil change at 2:30 pm & then I have to drive a little whiles away for my hair cut appointment at 4!!
I desperately need a hair cut but I'm totally going to exhausted by the end of yesterday. Better go to bed early just to make sure I don't enter Thursday in a grumpy mood.
I don't think I'll be able to do much updates on Thursday, either. We should get done by midafternoon but I might spend most of that unpacking & getting my room a semblance of normal. Plus I have to work Friday morning so it'll be vital I get sorta organized LOL.
It's a busy time, but I think I'll be okay! Though have me in your hearts--it's still going to be A LOT of work.
hello again! it's yet another day of site updates!
last night I finished up on the homepage, so it should all be cool beans! If you haven't checked it out, I have a chatbox set up! I'd love to hear from you!
furthermore, I started on my about me page! it's still in progress as I'm writing this, but it's coming along nicely!
also, I'm sure you've noticed, we have custom cursors!! I haven't figured out how to customize the pointer cursor but I'll get to that some other day! I also got background audio to work!! so on the homepage I have just supermarket ambiance while on here I have a song playing! I really like it & feel it really encapsulates me so I put it on here!
plus, if you haven't checked it ou, I have updated the 'song of the day' once again!! it's a really good one!
but on a more personal note, I move into my apartment Thursday! So there won't be much work happening on here that day. I've been packing & I plan on finishing up on that today. (minus personal stuff like my meds, computer, & everyday uses) then I need to wash my car. they're a little dirty LOL. I don't want to be pulling up to my apartment in a dirty car!
The fall semester starts up next Monday, which is exciting! I'm ready to get back on a routine again. I don't function well when I'm aimless. My executive dysfunction & depression tend to flare up. I'm pretty sure I'll be able to update the site just fine! My jobs tend to allow lots of free time since they're just desk jobs. Though won't be as fast as it is now.
Well, I gotta get my day moving. Wouldn't want to waste waking up this early!
hey! thanks for stopping by my blog! while I'm writing this, the state of it is pretty rough (most of the cosmetic stuff is not done), but I'm otherwise really happy with how it's turning out!
this is a link to the template I am using! template! it's really nice & pretty easy to get customized & set up!
THOUGH FOR THE LOVE OF GOD!! CHANGE!! THE!! NAME!! OF THE!! INDEX!! I OVERWROTE my code for my homepage & set me back HOURS of progress. so please...do yourself a favor & don't go through the heartache I went through.
