So I changed my layout … again. I tweeted that I may have an OCD for coding websites and that seems to be more true than I had originally anticipated it to be. Weirdly, changing layouts makes me seem somehow refreshed like changing the bed sheets and sleeping in the fresh smell of them. I’m odd. Forgive me.
School in 2 WEEKS or less now. I’m really nervous about my exams for the next few years, they are very important and I’ve already bitten my nails beyond my fingertips thinking about it. It’s just I can’t afford to make a mistake so I have to be extra careful and work even harder. Which means it’s going to be even harder to juggle between revision, work, website, hobbies and friends. So I have decided that for these last 2 weeks of the holiday I’m going to try and get as many updates on the site done
I have some advertising/link exchanges to sort out, a few hosting applications and a heck of a lot of more content to make. So expect some new things appearing and I will tell you about them in an edit of this blog.
A book to read ‘before you die’ is definitely ‘The Declaration’ by Gemma Malley. It’s cleverly written and shockingly truthful. You just want to tear all the pages up and shout out most of the characters, but all you can do is read on and on until the end hoping something can be done about the previous events in the book. And a film would be ‘Good Will Hunting’ about a maths genius from a bad background seeing a psychiatrist and falling in love. Sounds bad, but it’s actually quite touching.
So lovely visitors, bloggers, designers, writers, future astronauts.
I bid thee toodle-loo!

Hey,
Thanks for applying for advertising. I have linked you in the button rotation, but unfortunately, I just did a layout change so the others links are all mixed up, and I have yet to put you on the list of all being advertised. I used containers for the first time – forgive me, I am a beginner – so I have yet to sort out where I went wrong with my links.
All the best for your exams, by the way. I have mine in another week. I am freaked out too. 🙂
Haha thanks! 🙂 I’m glad you like the layout. I don’t mind making layouts but I guess putting them up all too soon ruins it for me and it makes it seem less special when I take one down so suddenly. I love it but I guess now I’m having less time for that kind of stuff anyway. ^_^;
You’re lucky you haven’t started school! First semester has started for me since Thursday. I’m pretty scared about exams too… Good luck to both of us!
Great new layout, by the way. I like how you incorporated the links near the top. 🙂
I never really thought of it as revenge, but you’re totally right. I’ve never been teased for being younger, so I guess that’s why I don’t feel like I should tease younger kids. Still, I don’t think I would do it even if I was teased. If anything I’d hunt down my elders and pounce.
I am a fan of this layout….mostly because of the text by the top banner. I think it’s neat how you did that. And I love wood patterns. 😀
I really hate exams. I usually do well, but I hate the fact that so much rides on them. This year I have to take the ACT which is a major factor in determining how fancy of a college you can get into. We took a practice in the Spring and I got a 34 (36 is the highest), but what happens if I can’t replicate that? I get so nervous. D:
I’ve never heard of that book, but I’m currently making a list of non-fantasy books I should read. Whenever I go to the library I end up floating to the fantasy section even if that’s not what I came there for. D: I’ll have to see if my school library carries it.
Ah, yes I’m doing great! 🙂 I’m homeschooled, and Haven’t got a specific time that where starting school but I’m nervous as crap! I’ve never EVER been that good at school… ;;) and I’m starting Junior High so…Its kinda stressful to me! Even though most people now are all like “Pish Posh, Junior High was a Catwalk!” holding their fancy Yale text books while I’m sitting here doing 1st grade math! D: And By the way, I will be updating the site, that message thats currently up on my site was supposed to be there for like a hour or so but my computer is getting all stupid but today I fixed it so when I get home, (Cause I’m at my Grammy’s house on her computer right now) I try to Fix it up without passing out, seeing that I’m getting home at like 11… 🙂 Geesh, for a 12 year old my life is pretty stressful! x_x
