| Note - April 27, 2007 -
I’ve just a short note - sorry that I currently can’t tag/comment/reply e-mails (at my hotmail account) for a while…I’m extremely exhausted from completing (PFFFFFFT) my book. It’s more tiring having finished a project than when you’re actually on it (or maybe I’m just not too aware of how tired I am while doing it, lol).
This morning I whacked 9 shrimps and a handful of MnM’s.
Soon I’ve to see about publishing things, which I admit I know close to nothing about, so I’ve always a lot of things to do on my agenda. I added a whole bunch of writing links under Resources and all I can say to myself is “good luck” (oh and if you’re reading this, wish me all the best/keep me in your prayers coz what’s the point in writing a book if it’s not published, right?).
I still drop by your blogs though so yeah just a note that I’m normally too tired to leave a tag, but out of sight, out of mind, doesn’t really apply in this instance ^^.
I don’t usually blog too-long stories, so I’ll go on a bit for this entry so that you can see what rubbish I’ve spared you from thus far, ha ha ha.
Today I may take a break. I have two big books that I’ve been wanting to read for ages and haven’t. Normally I’m at my comp for most of the day (same goes for my whole family). Yesterday my shoulder blade had this annoying strain but this morning I went for a walk and it’s better now.
That pic is my storyboard, well, actually the storyboard was longer, but I chopped the story down in terms of timeframe, so the original storyboard isn’t 100% accurate, but close. Yup, that is Adriana Lima in the background!
And I’m paranoid, I just had this thought that my entire draft had been wiped out. So in that case, I should make a backup. Why, because I save it on a thumbdrive, which I just took out to plug something else in.
Oh and my hair is longer now, for once.
That would be me thinking, God knows anything.
My mum called me “pale moon” today. Normally this is how my hand-written journal sounds like, a volley of inter-related (to myself) words and concepts. Rightio, I’ve got to go, hope to read for most of the rest of the afternoon, especially coz I have this too-fantastic Alexander the Great book, so have a great weekend and fit in some Sudoku if you can.

I always love to read news such as these:
Orphaned fox cub adopted by dog.
I thought the young of a fox was called a “puppy” and not cub, because don’t foxes and dogs belong to the same family?…but I guess I’ll have to go check up on that.
As well as Death Threat for German bear Knut.
Pictures are priceless.

I woke up at 7am today.
I’m still stuck with my usual bunch of things, so here’s a super duper photo of a too-cute PEDIGREE Burmese!
Coz of a mail my dad received: Roemah Koetjing Burmese.
I think I’ll blog my poems next, since the archiving here is neat.
Working my way around with CSS. I really must convert all the Dragonsinn [tables] to [divs], well at least I managed to get the [#footer] navigation right, which is a start AT LEAST.

During the A Maths ‘O’-Level exam, this song suddenly started blaring in my head halfway through: Somebody to Love - Queen, ah, one of the best bands ever (yes, I throw that phrase onto many of my “favourites”. And
the white spandex outfit in the video link is so Freddie Mercury-classic-classy).
I had the Queen Greatest Hits CD then. But I couldn’t for the life of me figure out what the title was, until I was at the end of the 20min-walk from school to my home. Then I was like “OHHH yeah!”

I’m thinking of converting Dragonsinn to CSS, which involves more work than it sounds coz I’m still a CSS novice.
Before I can do that, I’ve to clean up the HTML throughout the various pages because the mess is just disastrous. And then there’s XHTML which is cleaner and “stricter” but if I’m going to look at that I’d better clear up the HTML to a more decent standard first. Mffft.
Bach’s “Prelude in E major from Suite No. 4 for Lute” is one of the nicest tunes ever ever.
I’ve to return to my edit again. Whether it’s my manuscript or HTML being edited, it’s swarms of words or codes. Well. I should remember to do some light exercise at least before I’m permanently bolted to my comp seat and I’ve to say “hello” to a pulp backbone everyday!

I’ve about 1% left of editing to do with my first book, before I’ve to spend further whole days, weeks, months at a stretch figuring out what on EARTH to do on the publishing front.
But, no matter. I’m exactly halfway through the whole manuscript right now on MS Word (yeah, I finally am using that now after Wordpad for the first few drafts).
I still don’t intend to return to school (the last was an Arts Associate Degree, completed by long distance in the third quarter of last year).
I really just have one dream which has been the same dream since I first learned how to read and write.
And I still don’t see the point in me blogging (said the exact same thing on my first real blog entry here. Proof that some things never change (that quote’s either from the Matrix II or III)!
