I just noticed I have an addiction to Red-Violet, purplish colours. Weird- I was just out shopping with my friends and I ended up buying a red-violet coloured dress; much like the one on this layout. And the last layout had purplish colours as well. Subconscious addiction? Yep.

What reels you in?
March 30th, 2010 by MegYay! So today, Mary came over and we made a whole bunch of graphics because that’s what geeks like us do in their free time. One of the first things I made (as she watched and gave opinions on) was this current Gemma Ward layout. At first, it looked okay… then we gave up and made 2 layouts for her site.
After she went home, I was still in graphic mode, so I edited and fixed the GW layout to what it is now- and I like it a lot! It reminds me of the old Unfairytale style; such nostalgia. I always used to make Gemma Ward layouts because she’s awesome. And, actually, now that I notice- she’s pretty pixie-like as well. Much like my “thing” about me being a pixie (don’t ask; it’ll only make sense if I know you in real life).
Anyway, I haven’t fully updated the CSS/fonts on the layout yet, as the colours took me a while. And I haven’t checked it works with I.E. but I hate I.E. anyway (before you start lecturing me on the popularity of I.E., I will finish it off sometime this week). But enjoy!
I’m going shopping tomorrow with the bffls. Ah, can’t wait ’cause I really want to hang out with them. It’s amazing how much you can just long to socialise; usually I feel like I can’t be bothered but I know how awesome it is just to talk to them so I’m looking forward to it.
And finally, I’ve been told I don’t ALLSM enough by a certain person whose name starts with M and ends with “ary”. Well, I’ve kinda run out of them right now. I guess today’s can be a bit about me being a fashion junkie (a term my good friend Joyce, also a fashion junkie, says). I know- very girly; but I definately embrace the girlyness. I don’t know if it’s a surprise or anything-but I have an addiction to high & avant garde fashion; not that I own/would wear any. I guess it’s just the art of it that intrigues me. I swear- I have over 1000 pictures of fashion I like on my phone; mostly from the likes of Christian Dior, Elie Saab, Requiem, Alexander McQueen & Alice + Olivia.
Meh, sorry it’s not all that personal, but deal. Hope you all like the new layout!
Blogging
March 29th, 2010 by MegSo far I think I’ve been doing a pretty good job of updating every 2-3 days (although, being a little more flexible on weekends), but being one of those people that tend to have “fads” as I mentioned in another blog, I’m proud of myself for doing such a good job. LOL.
I think it has to do with my phone. Since I can just blog straight from it (like I’m doing now), I usually remember to blog just before I do my routine youtube watching and sleep. The only thing is- during the day when I should go on my computer and work on the site, I can’t be bothered. Along with that, when I do decide to go on, I’ve been kind of uninspired lately and I don’t know what style of layout I should be moving towards. Hence, no new layout has been made.
I made a tumblr the other day. But I couldn’t think of a good username/url thing. Then I couldn’t pick a theme. So I picked this temporary one that I don’t really like a whole lot- but it did inspire me to make a weird graphic that’s a little bit blood-and-gore butcher shop looking. Tumbr. I don’t even know why I’m linking to it now; I’ll probably change the name later today or tomorrow anyway.
Oh, a lot to talk about over the weekend. Well, I went to a deliciously amazing Spanish restaurant yesterday and it was, well, amazing. So good, in fact, that I tried to make the same dish at home today. Cheap imitation, yes. But still good nonetheless. Surprising, since my cooking skill is pretty low.
I’ve been addicted to The Sims 3 lately. It always happens now and again. Custom content is strangely addictive.
I’m kind of rushing to post this before 12. ’cause it’ll make it seem even longer since my last post. Stupid reason, eh?
Mary’s coming over tomorrow for some cool stuffs. Not including forcing me to watch the Notebook. I swear, this is going to be awkward with my whole family home.
Okay, thats all. Until next post.
Under-appreciation
March 26th, 2010 by MegYou know what I hate? When you work like hell to do well and for a whole term and then, for one day, you ask for a damn break and your dad goes in his grumpy, annoying attitude, “You’ve been lazy lately..blah blah blah..-deathstare-”.
Why? Because I didn’t do my self-tutored-sometimes-taught-by-my-dad maths for like, 2 days so I could study hardcore for legal studies and GMA. So how the fuck am I lazy? I swear, just because he spends all afternoon laying in bed he thinks I’ve done nothing during that time. It’s funny how we only focus on our own life. But seriously, don’t you dare tell me I’m lazy when you don’t even know what I’m doing.
Eh, I was gonna go on about how this kind of under-appreciation thing goes on on both sides; but I really can’t be bothered right now. It’s finally the holidays! I might just start on a new layout today.
Signs?
March 25th, 2010 by MegI think the fact that youtube doesn’t work right now is a sign that I should revise my legal more. Got a SAC tomorrow. GL to myself? Scary how badly I want to do well in this subject.
Eh, was disappointed at first at my GMA mark but apparently its a pretty average mark. To be honest, I don’t really like average (being a nerd) but considering my horribleness at maths in general, it’s not too bad. I wish it wasn’t such a hard subject. But it wouldn’t make a lot of sense if it was easy.
It’s the last day of the term tomorrow, yay! About time. I’m off to Spanish food on Sunday too; pretty excited to relax for once, especially since I’ve been working my ass off lately. How I manage to get through without completely giving up? Hoping it’s worth it. I think I end almost every blog where I’m about to have a test with something along those lines; but for some reason it really reminds me why I try so hard at this, despite the fact it makes me miserable for a while.
My name is Meg, some call me Gem, others Megan. I'm an eighteen year old girl from Australia who has a domain addiction and is about to enter the world of University where I hope to not get pummeled by Comm/Law. I have an amazing boyfriend named Bryan who likes to make up words and stuff with me.
