After so long, Propagator finally has a new layout! It’s minimahl by Ahlera. It’s pretty nice barring the awkward looking search-bar. I’ll soon be amending the random taglines on under my blog name. Simplicity itself will be getting new sections featuring my other (writing, arts, design) works and such.
Well, finally I decided to be a little more active at my blog and played around with it a little. I changed the theme of the blog, retaining the random subtitle of my blog as well as those pages. I’ve removed most of the outdated stuff, rewrote the About page, added a Projects page and also adjusted my FAQs a bit. That means I’m left with the reviews section which I’ve decided to work on since last month. Let’s just hope I can sustain the energy.
I am finally recovered from that slight bronchi infection on my left bronchi that has got me trapped in cycles of fever-cold. Too bad I wasn’t quite in academic mood when I felt sick or I’ll be recording down my temperature every time I measure it (which I did very frequently and I was telling my sister I may have contracted the Compulsive Temperature-Taking Syndrome that struck our schools together with SARS). And then I could try plot a chart or something using Google Chart API and then link the image here or something. Some random announcements and some offers to be made, since the previous entry that happen to fall into any other categories in my blog was really long ago.
I encountered something rather weird today. There’s this J2 who happened to not know how to spell ‘absurd’ and decided he wanted it to be the name of his sub-domain for his blog – at first I even thought it was intentional, now that’s what I call absurd. The worst part is really not that. It’s that erpz.net is going to host his blog, so soon there’s going to be one more blog on erpz.net besides Mib and mine (which really has been around since 2005). People who are interested in wordpress blogs at erpz.net with full setup free, you might comment in this entry to negotiate the monthly price, or leave your contacts so I may contact you. Right now ftp will probably be provided upon request and webspace is very flexible.
Another thing is that I am leaving this place to an island without Internet access for me (maybe they do have it for some other people). The trip would be quite a while and I’ll probably be missing from the blog for that while. The worst part is that I am not allowed to write about the encounters on that island and even doing that in secret might threaten my life. That’s absurd too, at least somehow.
Mac or PC? It’s seriously obvious.
I like the one titled ‘Office Posse’ for the UK ads. This series of ads is really cool and I thought many other firms can use the same sort of concept. I tried it once – but the white background was unattainable, so I dropped the idea. And another truth. I guess Apple is now going straight in their attack.
Haven’t been blogging because we, students are now preparing for the final rush. I probably wouldn’t be blogging at all for the next 2 month so don’t expect any updates soon. I’ll be coming up with a new design here to incorporate my design for a few new and pretty nice sites I have designed for my projects.
This final rush that we are all in for would take roughly another month, ending sometime early November. Hence, this blog can be considered ‘shut’ for the next 2 months. We still have no ideas for erpz.net. So I guess the frontpage would linger for a long time – it looks nice anyway. Bye, for now!
You know talking on MSN can pose quite a lot of problem. When you are not looking at the person, you’d feel strange when you are telling a joke and you can’t see the response. Then you probably go, “LOL”, or “Bleah”. Or maybe you decide to invent your own ‘random’ expressions – like “Vookibookk”, “Voogunihsabunda”.
Or perhaps others that do not start with ‘V’, like “Juulorubo” or most importantly, terms that cannot be pronounced, “Xusnaiur”. Then, you can give it a pronunciation yourself and no matter how well others may think they can read it, you say it’s wrong. And if you are really happy, you can fiddle with some punctuation and then you get stuff like “!Xusyllaernaiur”.
I was really inspired by this guy I was talking to, on MSN. He goes by a strange name, and a rather interesting appearance and [almost] commented that: “This dumb looking blog wif (sic) some green creature on the right muz (sic) be owned and authored by some dumb good-for-nothing guy who has nothing better to do in his damned boring life”. I must say…I agree with him absolutely!
Youngsters these days are really funny on MSN. They go “bleah” or “LOL” for almost everything that you tell them before giving their actual reply. It is as though they are having hiccups on MSN (except they don’t go ‘hic’)! And they substitute some of the most important key words used for communications with these ‘random expressions’. Here’s an example:
Vib: Hi, long time no chat
*Insanity: bleah -> ‘Bleah’ here meant: “Oh, hi!”
Insanity: Who are you?
Vib: Oh, it’s me. Vib.
Insanity: bleah. is that so? -> ‘Bleah’ here meant: “Vib. I haven’t talked to you?”
********
I don’t think you want to know the contents here.
********Vib: Bye then!
Insanity: bleah -> ‘Bleah’ here meant: “Bye then. See ya!”
*Insanity happens to be the nick of the guy I earlier mentioned. Interesting.
You see, these teens are really good at saving time (and words). Just one word to replace so many. We don’t really need languages anymore. *LOL* (Followed by a series of ‘bleah-ccups’) MSN is really a interesting place to hang out if you have sufficient contacts like these – and I really mean ‘Insanity’. I owe you one for giving me the inspiration to type all these crap. I think you should also go and start a blog so that you have a chance to open fire at this post of mine.
