Roast of teh Weenies

Wednesday, 19 May, 2004 at 7:04 pm

I kind of want to go to KROQ’s Weenie Roast. >_> They’ve got The Strokes, Bad Religion, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Velvet Revolver, Yellowcard, New Found Glory, Modest Mouse, and The Killers. ^_^ Yeah. But I’m not really the concerty type of person. :b If that wasn’t obvious. I dunno.

Launch isn’t working for me at the moment. :( Maybe ’cause I’m uploading my GM archives. ^^; Very slowly. ‘Cause the connection keeps timing out after a while. Ah well. I’m up to entry 125 of 236. Yup.

Guess what I downloaded! Amy Lee’s appearances on Cartoon Network! XP She said she had a bit of stage fright ’cause it’s hard being cute. Ahaha. And she had pigtails. Why is it she has fuller hair than I do, but her pigtails look less bushy than mine? Maybe ’cause she doesn’t brush them all out nicely like mine … >.> Dunno. But still. Eeee! I like non-goth Amy! XP She’s so cool.

Ooh. Last night I watched The Five Senses on IFC. It was weird. And I’m thinking it got only two stars because it was a rather slow movie. *nodnod* But I still liked it. Nice movie to stay up late watching on a random weekday. :P And the name of the little girl that got lost was Amy Lee! XD Her full name was Amy Lee Miller. I wanna name a girl Amy Lee … I’ve been thinking lately, ‘I’d like to name a kid such and such.’ Hehe. I was thinking of Nina as a name, too. What’s next, Natalie? :b~

I want to go on a poster shopping spree on the Anime Castle website. But I keep thinking about the Chobits poster they never sent ’cause it was backordered more than a month before Christmas. >_> And it cost over $11 too! It was a clear poster … and I don’t see it in their store now … I don’t even really remember what it looked like … meh. Just wasn’t meant to be. But still. $11! Mum gave me back my money, ’cause she was too lazy to ask them for the poster or a refund. She said it’s only money. But I’m not thinking of the money. I’m thinking, I paid, expecting something! And I want something! I don’t want a refund! Er. Maybe I do. Oh well.

I want to buy … an Angel Sanctuary poster … an Inu Yasha poster … and one or two Totoro posters … I guess it isn’t really a spree. Eheh. Oh well. I took down my $25 Queen Amidala poster and my Sakura Wars oav poster. I got tired of them. I moved my Snoopy poster in their place, and moved the other posters around … but now I have lots of pink wall above my desk. o.o So I want more posters. >b Well actually, I also want to replace my two Pokemon posters and my Gundam Wing poster above my bed. Actually, one Pokemon poster is there so my head won’t dirty the wall. ^^;; It’s got a tear in one side of it … :x

Mum said she’d try to cut my hair like Yukari’s! Yay. But then she threw in, “You’ll have all summer to grow it out,” so I’m afraid. Haha.

I rented The Last Emperor to get pictures of that lady’s haircut. ^.^; Yeah, I got two images, and I lightened them so they’re easier to see (and it was weird, ’cause I usually darken images :B). Except they’re on Hidek’s computer still, and he’s not on. >_> So I can’t get them. ;_;

little things

Tuesday, 24 February, 2004 at 5:52 pm

Some little things:

  • I don’t know why I can comment on SM00’s blog some times, and other times I can’t.
  • I can’t figure out how to make GM build my old archived entries. So only entries 230-now work, and only the month of February works. >.<
  • Entry 227 is marked as “closed” even though the entry saved on my hard drive is marked as “open” and no matter how many times I upload the one on my hard drive to my website it still says it’s “closed” in GM.
  • All the other entries that aren’t viewable are all marked as “extended entries.” Even though when I go to edit the darn things, there is absolutely nothing in the “more” section.
  • Oh yeah. New archives layout. It’s Chevelle. :) I’m liking their song Comfortable Liar. Not the lyrics, just the music. ^_^ Same with Jimmy Eat World’s “Get It Faster.” I don’t favor the lyrics, but I looove the music. Get It Faster is playing on KROQ now. XD So much fun.
  • I know absolutely nothing about Sakurazawa Erika, and yet I was accepted by the TFL to run the fanlisting. >_> ^^; Hey, I wanna join the fanlisting, but one doesn’t exist. So … I’ll make one! Even though I didn’t know her name was Sakurazawa Erika … <.< *coughcough*
  • I figured out why the borders wouldn’t show up in Mozilla/Netscape. It was ’cause I had “1” instead of “1px.” ^^;; Stupid accomodating MSIE.

Umm … that is all. I think.

when the end is all around

Saturday, 14 February, 2004 at 9:26 pm

Wooo! I r back, baybee! XD And someone over at Endore sucks ’cause they went out of business in the worst way possible. -.-

But anyway. I dunno how much I’ll be using this. ^^;;; And I’m too lazy at the moment to make a new layout. Or fix the tagboard page. Which I’ll be linking at the bottom of the page soon. And uhh … I’m also too lazy to do something else … but I can’t seem to remember what. o_O Well, whatever needs to be changed/fixed/uploaded, I’m too lazy to do it. :P

Let’s see, what I did today … I drove Hidek to Toys R Us, then we went to Rite Aid ’cause I wanted an ice cream bar but they took out that aisle and it confused me, and I bought a York Peppermint Patty which I haven’t eaten yet and a puffscrubball for baths, whatever those things are called, and Tadash came over, and [boring school stuff].

I spent the rest of the day (and some of last night) uploading my fanlistings and the other stuff I hadn’t uploaded. I also figured out how to get the formmail script to work. It’s a lot easier when Notepad isn’t being cruel and inserting those rectangle shapes instead of line breaks. Believe me, it’s really really really frightening.

Gehehe, Wulfie just crawled out from under Hidek’s covers. XD (And yeah, I’m in Hidek’s room, ’cause I was using the wav editor on the compi. And am now using the much-nicer-than-mine speakers to listen to Evanescence. :b) Now I think Dusty is under the bed; Wulfie seems awfully interested in the area between the wall and the bed.

But anyway. Because I think it’s weird and cool and I worked on it quite a bit, listen to this [mp3 removed] and agree with me that lots of artists lately are biting off a very cool Japanese artist. :b And I’ll leave that up for only a day or two because mp3s on my space make me nervous. >_> But it’s not even one whole minute of any song, just 10-30 seconds of four songs with veeeery similar beginnings. Although, having listened to it over and over tonight, I’ll agree that they do “differ” a bit and no one’s biting off Lily Chou-Chou. Just great minds thinking alike, or some such thing …

working on layout; moodtheme; Alice in Chains

Saturday, 3 January, 2004 at 9:56 pm

I’ma working on a new layout for IAT. Yay! ^^ The last layout I made was in mid-September … o.o And I think this one is very fall-y as well. O_o Not very good. But OH WELL! I was never one to follow the seasons and stuff anyway. :b

So. I’m taking a break from it because I’m pausing to give my brain a rest before I have to figure out the HTML for making a full-size div in a frame, without a background-image, but stationary images that serve as the background, and an image that hovers over the text, but not the scrollbar. *takes a deep breath* It sounds simpler when I type it out. ^^;; Ah well.

I’m also working on an Amy Lee moodtheme set. ^^’ I have about 8 of the moods set. ^.^;; About 50 random pictures that I have to assign to moods, and a few I’ll probably end up tossing out because there isn’t a mood for it, LJ doesn’t have that mood, or because there are too many pictures of her like that. XP

*ahem* I forgot that I didn’t post this. O.o *10:44 now*

So the HTML is all written up. ^.^ Yay! Now I just have to change all the other pages. Oh yeah, I also have to write the css up.

Umm … at the moment I have most all the Alice in Chains songs from their Greatest Hits album checked to record to my compi. ^^. Yeah. I like their songs a bit more than I thought I would. Or maybe … I dunno. Maybe it’s because it’s their greatest hits. :b Yeah.

Well I’m gonna go finish up putting the IAT layout together. XD So fun. I realized, recently, I think I like writing the HTML more than I like working on the layout in a graphics editor. *shrug*

Lily Chou Chou wa SUGOI desu yo! XD

Saturday, 22 November, 2003 at 9:39 pm

AHHH!!

O_O!!! I just saw Kill Bill. And GUESS WHAT?!!!!! I HEARD A LILY CHOU-CHOU SONG!!!!!! Omigosh XD XD XD XD!! That was sooooo coool! It made me like Kill Bill. :b (It’s a funny movie, and I liked Lucy Liu ^-^ but still not up to my tastes.)

At the lilyphilia board they said it’s the song Kaifuku Suru Kizu, or Wound That Heals. It’s in the scene where she’s lookin’ at the swords. Wooo! :D

Yeah, anyway. ^^;; I thought that was uber cool.

[edit] *cough* Sorry. I forgot this. ^^ IMDb put up a page for Lily Chou-Chou as a composer. Not bad for a fictional character, eh? XD XD [/edit]
