I’m gonna go listen to Linkin Park.

After so many anime-unrelated posts, finally some Gundam Seed Destiny. I watched quite a few episodes these past two days, but… I already forgot most of the details. Why, I wonder. Probably because too many issues occurred in the meantime, especially with that darned poll plugin (finding the tweak to change the size of the text took me quite some time, tweaking, reuploading, undoing, tweaking, reuploading, etc).

Still, after finishing this post, I noticed that was able to get enough text to make most people go tl;dr (too long; didn’t read) XD… as always. But let’s start right away with Shinn’s emo corner! Read the rest of this entry »

Finally, home. Finally, internet. Finally, I can fully access it. Internet, Serious Business! But I’m already digressing, first things first. So, yeah what I did, surprise surprise, I now added a poll plugin to my sidebar. I haven’t gotten the time to configure its style yet, I might do that soon enough. Anyway, the first question is about Rule 7.

First off, YAY my blog is back up! As you might have noticed, my blog has been down for a couple of hours. As I was trying to upgrade WordPress, FTP upload suddenly felt like striking. FireFTP, SmartFTP, CuteFTP, all of them failed on this “500 SIZE: Operation not permitted” error, only to upload exactly 8 kilobytes of each file until timing out. So without WP, no thinkbox!! But, help came very soon: thanks to our beloved and almighty AnimeBlogger admin Maestro, the blog got put back up in a flash! Again, thank you very much Maestro!

The only remaining problem is that I can’t seem to upload anything over 8 KB. I really don’t know why this happened, but yeah, it seems like it’s on the end of my dorm’s proxy server. Since yesterday, MSN has also been faulty and direct downloads only run at 20 kb/s… Bleh. This sux royally. I could upload to photobucket though… nah not the time now :P

Edit: I just heard that some technicians have been working on it all day long, which has yet to be confirmed by the admin. Great, how come I know nothing…

Well yeah. Tomorrow I got a Biology test, my main subject. It’s 6 PM and I still haven’t started yet… and I need to get a shower… Arrr all I’ve been complaining about these past few days was school and lack of sleep… This is supposed to be an anime blog! When will I get to watch some anime again? T_T Tomorrow after school? Sounds like a plan. Stay tuned.

Well yeah, after giving it some thought I just felt like upgrading WordPress. The current version I’m using (2.0.6) still works like a charm, and at first I’d never have considered to upgrade it since I guessed (and I was right!) that it would pwn some plugins. But now I’m risking the step since I’m bored ^^

OMG. I could blame it on yesterday’s post which took me about 2 a half hours to write, with lots of distraction and what-not, blabla excuses. Anyway I started studying chemistry at about 6 PM only, and I went over to dinner half an hour later. Add an interesting movie to the evening (The Exorcism of Emily Rose, it’s really a great movie) and it’s already 10 PM until I can get back to my studies. I thought, I would still be able to get the subject through before 1 AM. Right. 3:40 AM it was, what a bloody fool I am!! And waking up at 7:30, makes less than 4 hours of rest.
It’s worrying. I honestly never, never was up until this late of an hour for studying. And before the Easter holidays, and now yesterday, I beat my old record of 3 AM without problems. What’s it gonna be for the finals, all-nighters? I’m going to break at this rate x_x

And it’s sooooooo easy to prevent that!!! I simply should stop procrastinating and wasting my time on futile matters, and finally get the heck moving! Starting earlier in the day would be already a good option, much better, a few days earlier, no?? Don’t tell me! I know that. Yet I don’t do it. Why, I guess everyone of you knows the answer.

*neko sighs.

And guess what? Tomorrow I got an Economics test. Great, I’m gonna study a few twenty pages with hardly any sleep, and what did I do these past 2 hours? Playing Stepmania for the lulz?? Geez I feel pathetic. I could at least have had a nap during that time, so at least I could concentrate better tonight. and needless to say, I’m going to skip today’s Guitar lesson as well, since my bike has a flat tyre and I can’t fix it now. Gained a whole hour, I guess I’ll have a nap or so. I suspect this night to be long as well, so I need some rest. And no Gundam SEED Destiny for today T_T I do watch the Lucky Star opening once a day though. It’s just crazy.
I wonder who else keeps up such a random and inefficient schedule. Argh my bad conscience is killing me *goes off to take a nap*

P.S.: Chemistry test went quite well nevertheless. It’s not as if I didn’t know anything either :P

It’s been over three months since I created this anime blog, and I just felt like observing what has happened during this period. It would be very appreciated if many people would take their time reading (and commenting) this, as this concerns everyone indirectly.
