8. The Others

September 14, 2007

Well, The minisite is all well and done! It is now 12:47am on the morining of Saturday the 15th September.

 Today (Pretend it’s the 14th) – And I will rant a litle about myself now. Sorry.

Anyways, Today was my 20th Birthday. I know, I look so youthful for someone so old! And I spent the morning in bed, wrapped in my blanket (it was cold) feeling sorry for myself. Then I realised that I should get the hell of my bum and go to uni to hand in the website (’cause I’m slow and still don’t know how to do it from home. I’m gonna figure it out on Monday though I think, cause I need to fix up my home page still … that is get rid of the placeholding text and add the real text.)

 So anyways, I travelled in true nerd style. USB around the neck, Laptop slinged by my side, and I left. I worked on some of my content on the way to uni and then fixed up my site. I believe (and I may be a little biased here) that my website is uber awesome.

 But, I’ll get back to this. So anyways, I get to uni (and almost regretted it straight away – I think we all know why! Holy Crap) and then my cousin rings … and comes to visit. Nothing eventful happened while I was at uni. I actually worked and left everyone alone.

I did have two mini heart attacks. One when none of my content wasn showing up on my minisite … I was convinced my new coding was right but nothing would show! Thank gos drew saved the day when he pointed out I was previewing from my Z drive … but editing in the G drive lol. That was embarrasing … but at least it works now.

 The second heart attack came when I forgot I renamed my minisites link, and forgot to change it from the homepage, so that it still went to the old minisite and i was convinced for a minute that I had deleted everything and that my life is over. But its all good. I fixed that too!

 Like I said, I’m a genius! But all jokes aside, as much as I like my minisite and website I think there is one gigantic mistake that I made (that I will not point out here) that I just cannot get over. Its going to be haunting me until we get the marks back.

Btw, can we please get some criteria for the next thing? I cant work like this! There was nothing clear about what to put on it, or how much everything was worth so that we know what to focus on etc.

So please, for the next one let us know EXACTLY how much its worth and how those marks are divided between whats expected.

 So anyways, I left uni at around … quater to 5? And accidently caught the bankstown train lol so I had to swap at ashfield … That was a first. I was saying to christine just yesterday that we never swap at Ashfield lol

Then I came home … maked up … dressed up and headed out. We went Brighton Australia (contrary to popular belief) and had dinner that was awesome cause there was this one waitress chick who was like super speedy and all over the place lol … until we realised they were twins haha and it explained a lot. Then I picked a fave twin and was bragging about her and putting the other one down (secretly) like I knew what the hell I was talking about.

And then we had ice-cream! I had cookies and cream! Yumm waffle cone! and yeah, walked along the beach a bit and headed back home. It was an okay night. Brighton is full of try hards, not my favourite place to be. But it was okay.

For dinner I had Chicken Pesto Penne incase you were wondering, yes it was quite nice.

Then I got home … at around 20 to twelve and I began stalking everyones minisites (thats where the movie title finally comes in! haha)

Some were really good. Some were boring. Some were cringe worthy! While others … were non existant!

I seriously could not find a few people’s minisites, either they were terribly set out and i just didnt manage to find the link, or else it didnt exist. And I noticed one persons link didnt work, which I thjought was atotal bummer.

But over all, I think everyone did quite well. I just hope that our marks reflect that.

 Oh, and while I’m at it … can I just mention how much I love CSS? Like seriously! I am not kidding at all! When I first heard we were learning CSS I was like “you’ve got to be kidding me. It just complicates things and wastes time” But i now see that I was wrong. It actually does the exact opposite! It tells my website to obey me and keeps it in order!

 Well, it may sound geeky, but I love CSS and I now cannot see why you would do a website without it! It makes everything so much easier! After you get the hang of it of course!

 Anyways, I’m off! I was gonna write some more, but im too tired. too tired even to stalk people’s blogs! I will do that tomorrow. Right now I need to rush … the sleep express is about to leave!

 Keep on keepin on my fantabulous fans!
