I haven’t blogged in a while and I must be that busy. And being busy is something that I don’t enjoy, but it enjoys torturing me. I should stop ranting about it. >.>

Anyway, last week or so, I got my EON debit card. I’m going to use it to verify my Paypal since my mom doesn’t want me to use my credit card. I mean, what’s the difference? I registered my card at UnionBankPH. It’s bugging me how I couldn’t log in when I know for a fact that I entered the right card number and PIN and that I registered it 5 days after I tried to log in. -.- I’m just hoping that they haven’t got my form due to time constraints, but will do so when the queue moves, and not because of some other vicious error or stuffs.

I guess I still have three or so weeks before the semester ends. :P I couldn't wait to watch movies that I missed and I'll be having my OJT this summer. The thought is new and foreign and it bugs me.

Don't you think the way I categorize my posts is weird? XD

_{Two ‘o clock and I wish that I was sleeping
You’re in my head like a song on the radio
All I know is that I got to get next to you
Yeah I got to get next to you
Sitting here turning minutes into hours
To find the nerve just to call you on the telephone
You don’t know that I got to get next to you}

Speaking of blogging, I am kind of annoyed at tags. I don’t really see the point when you can have your post in a Category. And seeing some sites with Tag clouds kind of irks me; I’ve always thought they look messy, but you could tell from their tags what they are blogging about more and more often than not it would it be love or quotes. Or maybe it’s just me. I always make sure that I put a post in only one category. I don’t know why, but I want my posts to belong to only one category. XD I logged on to my first blog on WordPress, which is using version 2.6.2 and I haven’t realized how different it is from the current one. :P I’ve really forgotten how it looked like, but here’s a screenshot.

Anyway, this my first post for twenty-ten. :P Can you tell? Haha. I’ve been kind of busy lately and sooner or later, you’ll find me updating less. Yes, I’ve anticipated my now-busy-and-will-be-busier schedule and would want the sem to end right away. XD School made me busy, that’s a first. And fanlistings made me too. :P But running and making them is really fun. I don’t regret joining that side of the web. Haha.

I made Clumsy, my first ever fanlisting and have adopted a Harry Potter related fanlisting as well, but I haven’t even started on it yet. I’m happy, of course, because it’s my first adoption and it’s from a fandom that I really, really love. 8D If you want, you can visit my collective: Pygmypuff and we can be collective affiliates there if you want. *hint hint nudge nudge*

Updates: 1 icon texture pack, 2 brush sets, 1 tutorial

For the first time, I will ask you guys some questions.
1. What do you think of the uses of tags and categories?
2. Do you have a collective? What are your thoughts about fanlistings?
3. Suggest me a really good band or artist. I don’t mind the genre as long as it’s not heavy metal, but I prefer rock. XD

I’ve visited quite a few blogs and come across those who are having contests or giveaways. I found this interesting site where the owner had a point bulider type of contest. She was telling the participants to comment on her sites where she gives 2 points for each comment. Curious at her other sites, I visited them. I thought to myself that her layout looks somewhat nostalgic and the color scheme is familiar. By familiar, I mean that I have used it in one of my layouts. As I browsed, I began to suspect that this girl is using my basecode. I looked at her CSS, and WTF, I saw my own coding, with some parts altered.

Hey, bitch, do you admire my work so much that you decided to take it as your own? You think I’m supposed to be grateful, but hell, no, I’m NOT! Is it so hard for you to leave a fucking little credit just at the footer? You’re sickening.

I’ve come across some site owners who had their content stolen and it was downright disheartening to see it. Let alone experience it. And yes, I feel like this site would be no more than a blog as I don’t have the motivation to do updates anymore.

Yes, I am discouraged, disheartened, and in rage.

Carissa once told me about this stealer of hers and upon reading the skank’s comments, I realized what a low-life she is. She was even thanking Carissa for bringing more hits to her infamous site. Must you be that desperate to gain hits even though you know that these hits were brought by your haters? FFS, get a life and grow up!

On the brighter side, I have finally gotten around in setting up my other domain which too me a long time to do so as it was difficult to battle my procrastination. Oops. View it here. :P

I realized something today: Blogging is like love. It all ends when it becomes an obligation. Who’s with me?

I recently unprotected my tweets. Twitter keeps sending me an error message when I try to approve followers. Why’s that?

I’m pretty excited for this afternoon. We’ll be having a court visit for a criminal case. I’ve never been in any courts before and I’ve only seen such hearings on T.V. and whatnot, so it’s something new for me. We went to Capitol yesterday and checked the schedules for hearings. Most branches don’t have hearings starting on Dec. 21 since it’s already the start of the holiday. I also knew that they don’t have hearings on Saturdays and Sundays. We would have gone and had the court visit on January next year, but they don’t hold hearings for they’ll be having their inventory check. It was a really good timing that we went there yesterday.

We’ll be going to make a sort of a reaction paper for our Political Science subject and it was to be submitted around Pre-finals, so it must be around January. Going to the court today was really unexpected. Since I barely have any sense of direction, I couldn’t remember how we got to Capitol and so my friend wanted us to meet somewhere so we could go there together. XD

As most of you guys know, I joined Tricia’s contest at Oh-Well. And when I logged in to approve and return comments, I literally freaked out when I read her comment saying “Congratulations!”. Right then and there, I knew I won something. It was so hard not to feel shaken when I went to her site and saw that I won the first prize! :music YAY! Luck comes to me when I least expect it. Thanks, Tricia!

It's GossipOverCoffee‘s 1 month birthday, so I changed the site spotlight if you haven’t noticed. :P It’s also my token of gratitude to her. Pardon my failed attempt on creating a scrapbook-like design.

Anyway, here’s the customer site that I promised you guys that I’d show. I haven’t uploaded it, so for the mean time, I’ll let you see the screenshot. The size might be a bit big because I didn’t resize it. D;

Today’s been a cold and rainy day. :rain I haven’t seen the sun come out throughout the day. Our air-conditioned classrooms felt like freezers. Brrrr. There’s a typhoon, thankfully it’s not that bad. It’s only in Signal 1, but I’m not saying it’s a good thing either. I’ve never considered typhoons as good, unless I use that excuse to be thankful that there are no classes. XD

Because of the rain, I got colds. I kept sneezing and I took medicine right away. That’s why I don’t like getting wet unless I’m doing it on purpose. I want to hit the sack and sleep soundly but I can’t because I still have to study for our Math exam tomorrow.

I intentionally posted in Tumblr using Filipino language or Cebuano dialect because I don’t like having two blogs. :P It’s just my random blog, so it’s not much of a big deal, because I will always post here even if some of my classmates know my site and read my blogs, which was really embarrassing. Anyway, I’m fine not having followers(I only have one :haha). As long as I can blog, it’s more than fine with me. I’m still trying to figure out too how to give my Tumblr a custom domain name. I’m really fascinated at some amazing Tumblr themes. I wanna create one of those, but I still have to familiarize and understand the codes, so all I could do now is credit and tweak. XD

I protected my tweets for the simple reason that I love looking at the little locked icon when I tweet. XD Sounds silly, but it’s true.

And yeah, I’ve been lazy. I guess I feel tired thinking about and making our DB project that I want to rest all day. It’s Saturday, so I still have the night and the next day to work on school stuffs. I feel proud of our customer site somehow, which is part of our DB project, CROS. If you’ve read my previous posts, you’d know what I’m talking about. :P We(yup, we had some teamwork right here, which is good) changed the layout and now it looks cool. I will give you the link when we finish adding the contents. XD

Anyway, I woke up earlier than usual yesterday and absentmindedly and half-asleep logged in to my Gmail, which I don’t do very often. :sweat: I received an e-mail from Kat and there was a snippet saying ‘Hi congratulations, you won…’ and I thought it was just the same old spam that says ‘Hello Dearest, you won a $2, 000, 000 from a lottery.’ and all that shit that doesn’t have to do with me. There are so many girls with the name Kat and there was no identifier in the snippet. But the name sounds familiar and that’s when I realize that she is Kat at rainbowcrush.com who was holding a domain giveaway that I recently joined. Without thinking, I clicked it to read the full text and got the shock of my life. I won a domain in the giveaway, and it’s a .com/.net/.org to beat with! You can’t imagine how happy I was to read it that I had to reread it again just so I know what I’m reading is real for it felt like I’m in a daze, a half-remembered dream. It’s all thanks to KAT! I now have a .com domain. :P The link? Well, it’s a secret for now. :D

I went to school wearing that silly smile in my face. I had a pretty good day; Two of my exam results were given to me and I passed in both exams. YAY! But when I arrived home, I was searching for my wallet because I was going to buy my nephew some snacks, only to find out that my 500 PHP bill is missing. I was saving that money to open another bank account here to have an EON card, which I can use for verifying my Paypal. I have no idea how I lost it or when it was lost, but I was entirely sure I had it with me until lunch.

That was really disappointing and like a counter to my luck earlier that day. :( And to think that yesterday was the birthday of someone that I used to know, I thought it would be my unlucky day, but coincidentally, it was not. I’m glad I won the domain and the news brightened up my day.

So today was a really tough day since we went to another campus just to listen to the Assembly which bored the hell out of me. I ended up sleeping instead of listening. LOL. I feel a bit down because my dad still can’t come back here and it’s been two months since he went to Libya to work. Normally he’d be out there for a month and come back here for another month, but his VISA isn’t yet released and we don’t even know if it has been renewed or not. :(

The saddest part is I always remember to return comments but I keep forgetting on e-mailing him and he got upset with me right now. It’s not that I didn’t want to keep in touch, it’s just that I waited for his reply and it ended up like this; me not contacting him. It’s either he didn’t receive my e-mail or I didn’t receive his. But anyway, I have e-mailed him just before I wrote this entry. XD I’m so hoping he can return home this week or the week after next.

Recently I got really interested with Fanilistings. I got even more excited when I found out that there’s no approved fanlisting for the characters in a Drama series that I have in mind. YAY! Since I am such a procrastinator slow worker, hopefully, I’ll be able to work on one the next month, given more or less time.

And if you haven’t noticed, I imported my old posts into this site. Since I’m already blogging here and I don’t want to have 2 blogging sites and I don’t want to dump my old posts for they are a part of me, I put them over here, all of which are posted on my previous private site. Now you can publicly read them if you want. It’s all in my Archive. :D

Today, I was kinda depressed because even though I did code for our exercise, I wasn’t able to let our teacher check it because I modified the errors and ran out of time. I went home sad this afternoon and thought of the contest. I thought I possibly couldn’t win it because there are so many members who are way faster in answering than I am. I read my twitter updates and absent-mindedly read the winners of the contest.

And guess what? I was one of those! I’m glad I did join because I practically won the domain! YAY for me! It’s a .info domain, which is my very first, so I’m going to keep it. If you’re asking for the URL, well.. It’s a secret for now. :P

Life has its ups and downs, it’s true. I’m glad something good happened to counter my bad experience this morning.

This time, I’m plugging Cristina for giving me the awesome opportunity to win it. She has a new contest going on in the forum that has just started. Anyone can join. Yes, you. You can join too.
