September 2007

on the second entry of September 30, 2007

       Hmm... ever notice how September is the ninth month of the year, when it should be the seventh. It would make sense that way.

       Oh yeah, and forget my last blog because.... BAM:

Valid XHTML 1.0 Transitional

All my pages are now validated except for the poems, journal entries and opinions (found in the Writing section). That'd be too tedious, but I will validate them one of these days.
It actually had nothing to do with me not understanding enough html and xhtml, I just forgot to do things like putting quotes around everything (I had only placed them intermittingly before), and adding required attributes to things, and all that stuff. I recommend you validate your site as well. It was actually kind of fun...

       For the last two days I've been trying to Validate Lace. Wow. Just wow. I redid my stylsheet twice because for some reason my ftp deleted it...twice. Um, at first the main div would NOT work whenever I inserted a !DOCTYPE tag at the top, but then I figured out what I was doing wrong. It's really annoying having to add alt="" to all images. It's funny because even though I'm trying to validate my website, it is far from valid. Lol. This index page has 167 errors currently. Some of them are minor and I just don't are about, and some of them I just don't understand. Like this message: end tag for "p" omitted, but OMITTAG NO was specified. Um. What?! Was that an insult? Ha. This whole thing has made me realize how much I don't understand about html, and xhtml... but that's a good thing, because now I know what I need to learn. *sigh*

       In my tangible life, lol, I have to do this stupid french project and I do not want to/ I've been eating so much junk food lately. I've just been carelessy overindulging to the max x 10, and I'm doing nothing about it except feeling guilty. Not only do I not want to gain any weight, I wanna be healthy! I feel like my arteries are progressively clogging--- 'cause they are. On a better note, it's me and my lover's eight month anniversary!! Wootelly woot!

Oh and I added this to the Contact page, because for some reason I can't use a form on this domain... *shrug* Go crazy:

:   I added a books page where I suggest some of my favorite books.

on the entry of September 28, 2007

:   I added 5 poems, more writing links

       La, la, la. Ya know, I've really got nothing to blog about. Anything interesting enough to blog about, I don't even want to think about. Oh wait, wait, I've got something. I take a poetry class at my school. I never knew this but poets are sometimes divided into different schools of poetry? I wonder if I fit into one. Since this is a writing site, mainly, I'm thinking about finding out more about these schools, and putting that info on here, as well as an explanation of the different forms of poetry, and stuff like that. Hmm... Sounds tedious though. And if people really wanted that information, they'd look it up themselves. I just don't want to do a lot of work, and feel that no one appreciates it at all. What do you guys think? Would a section like that be something you'd be interested in? (I'm just going out on a limb here, hoping someone will indeed respond to this, lol.)

       Random: If my boyfriend's band made it big... I'd get to tour the country... *daydreams*

       I got hosted by Lizzy. I also added an arrow background, and a border to the main div, for kicks, and cause I felt the layout needed it.

on the entry of September 23, 2007

       I have changed been changing SO many things around the site the last couple of days. I added a little Attention thing on the left, because on Fire Fox ,and other browsers I imagine, you have to scroll to the right to see the submenu, meaning those visitors probably didn't see any of my writing, or any of the content under the Misc. section, or any content at all basically. Someone brought this to my attention through e-mail. Thank you :).

       I also added a ton of quotes by writers, and about writing. I added an Affiliates page, so go request to be an affie! Oh and I added a Joined page, and the Journal Entries page under writing.

       Also, someone offered to host me. Appreciated. Let's see what happens from here.

       I.... am going to buy a domain one of these days. Freewebs is fucking up way too much. I'm a little pissed right now. Either that or Host me anyone?

       I didn't want to be hosted before, because I wanted to be in charge, but I don't even care anymore. I'd really appreciate it if someone let me into their domain.

       It's 1:29 am. I have school tomorrow. BUT, at least I finally put up my new layout, and it's all finished. I'm sure there are still little kinks that I need to fix, but I couldn't find any right now. If anyone sees anything weird, please tell me about it. Also, any feedback about the layout will be insanely appreciated. Haha.

       I need to start letting people know about my site again. I got a tiny bit of traffic for a while, then it all stopped. It's okay, I'll get to where I want to be eventually.---Optimism... coming from the most pessimistic person ever. I'm trying to reform myself. Haha.

       I'm almost done putting up the new layout, although there are definitely a few things I still have to work out. I'm going to change the poetry page (under writing), so that it has an iframe and stuff, because I don't want people to have to leave that page then go back to read a new poem, then leave then come back, etc.

on the entry of September 12, 2007

       In the process of changing the layout. Sorry if things look out of place.

on the entry of September 9, 2007

       I'm currently working on a new layout. I love the colors, but I just don't know how to arrange everything... hmmm. And although I had a solid idea of what exactly I wanted, as I started making it it shifted. Which is fine, and just like the creative process. Goodbye.

       School today wasn't nearly as bad as I had myself worked up to believe it would be, lol. However downloading a trial version of photoshop, paintshop, or illustrator has been impossible. Why oh why can't I find any of it on my computer after it supposedly downloaded?! It's driving me insane. I absolutely feel like my site needs a new layout. A simpler one; a better one. I feel like I'm at a standstill. Help?

       Atleast I got two comments yesterday... one of them was a compliment on my layout, another was a critique on it. Haha. I am gonna have to agree with the critique because I myself have been DYING TO CHANGE IT. Why won't it work?!!!!!!.... Okay. I'll leave now. I just microwaved myself a beef and bean burrito. Everything is momentarily alright.

I think I just wrote my lamest blog ever.
