Switches and moves

Monday, April 25th, 2005

New net stuff -
Digitalskies.net has switched hosts from illusionfxnet.com to freenewbies.com. That’s why there’s some broken links and stuff here and there. I moved most of it at 2am in the morning yesterday, which coincidentally was Joey’s birthday.

At that time I had a little mysql problem, but since my hosting at illusionfxnet.com is still technically about till the end of the month, that problem was fixed.

However, I do dread uploading 15 megabytes of my old art, even though really, it has been the only record left of them since all these viruses and cd losses tend to cause them to disappear :P

Anyway, bye bye B2evolution, I shan’t miss you, and hello wordpress! Why did I switch? … I wanted a commenter plugger and other bits and pieces :P

Now I know that I said I would add a new layout, and it’ll be up in the next few days since today’s the last day of the school holidays :(
I have made the header already, I just have to do some coding and… stuff.

Phew, homework is now zilch, but then again, it’d have to be by now. Wasting away my holiday to do all that homework X_x

Website Status – Site Stuffed

Thursday, April 14th, 2005

After almost two years, my webhosting with illusionfxnet ends and now it’s time to move. DAMN.



I suppose at least it’s the school holidays so there shan’t be too much trouble except finding new hosting and then making sure everything works – the problematic bit, especially when it comes to move the stuff to another server. Who knows how long it would take to upload two years worth of stuff up.



Of course, it’ll still bit at digitalskies.net. There may be downtime, there may be changes, but the domain name isn’t changing any time soon.



Perhaps after the website move, I’ll use Wordpress instead of B2Evolution. Needless to say, there aren’t as many features, and there’s no way to have automatic comments plugging, or a better way at blocking all the stupid spam I get from the supercilious and redundant comments sections of previous posts.



Such a pity that my website stability is no more – especially when I just updated quite a bit. I had a new layout coming soon too…



In happier news, I joined Regale MB, and it looks pretty nice and seem to be rather active.



Finally, in odder news, did you know that a new star was found, and it is almost literally a star fossil? The oldest star in the sky seen to date… :D

Holidays!

Monday, April 11th, 2005

Finally, the school holidays have arrived!



Well, retreat (kind of like camp) was completely awful – bad bad food, extremely tiring and extremely boring.

How does that work?



Well, extracurricular – I thought it would be EVER so great to go bushwalking because I thought it WOULD be bushwalking (of course silly me forgot to bring a camera – there were pretty views that’ll stay in my memory, but the pain and wet shoes and socks and the hour without water and a clean shower definitely wasn’t worth it.

Then the actual school bits – the ‘activities’ were craft (it’d be great if it were actually on a better topic…) but I certainly do not wish to discuss myself! Not to mention that we finished pretty damn early, and we were still stuck with the small group…

ugh, a longer version of ‘Reflection Day’ from the past years… to do that AGAIN next year, and to stay over for another day? Oh shit.



It would probably have been better if I was with ALL my friends, and not stuck in a cabin with 1/2 my friends, and well… 1/2 — I shall not comment on the annoyances.

I mean, sheesh, how many times did they have to get everyone in trouble because their camera phones were flashing away? (we weren’t allowed to bring them but noo, guess what they did?) Now I couldn’t really care less except because of them, the cabin door couldn’t be locked! (‘Preveileges’ revoked – bleh)

Then the hairspray and bathroom light on for hours on end.. Yuck, no need to spray that crap in the bloody cramped room…





Yup yup, whines


Autumn holidays have commenced, and there’s two weeks – hiphip horray!

I’ve been joining message boards though I can’t say I’ve been posting much, but these holidays I plan on relaxing and not biting off more than I can chew like the other holidays.



I always seem to get stuck with some mega project that makes me end up having to commit to not only that but school work during school time.



As a result… well, my grades haven’t been going too well, especially after the fight of Dreamlaced…….



I was supposed to use the time that Sunday morning to do my assignment, but then along came a stupid little kobe gaki that wanted to be a moderator when she spams and conducts in illegal activiies – the anti-thesis of a mod. Ugh.



sigh I have bad results for Studies of Religion, Mathematics, Mathematics Extension and Economics… eep. Perhaps 70-80% average may be okay for some but.. I want to go well.



Not only is this year so difficult compared to last year, I just HAD to get behind in Physics – which I’m quite pathetic at and I need to catch up on ALL of it!



My holiday checklist:

- Finish watching Full Metal Alchemist (up to ep 28 now… haha, about 23 more episodes to go – and I’ve watched ep 8-27 within the past two days)

- Do all my homework

- Catch up on understanding physics

- Get ahead on my subjects

- Fix up this website

- Better my study habits

* Read fanfics everyday as I can’t seem to give it up even after about 5 years _;;



Haha, my priorities are stuffed up, I must say.
