Stuff

Someone — Tue, 04 Mar 2008 00:36:06 +0000

So as usual, I’m sticking to my pattern of only remembering that I should post stuff here about once a month, but that’s fine

On Shurty, I’m actually getting severely annoyed at the extent that the chat has fallen. Inappropriate topics, shameless ignoring of less enforced rules, transparent attempts to apologize for the 92745927897th time, and worst of all, deliberate attacks on new people are running rampant. This bugs me to no end, although some of the blame for this can be attributed to me, since I do spend considerably less time modding than I used to. However, most of the offenders are long time people, so they should know better….then again, maybe that’s the reason, the fact that they have been there so long that they forget that its not just a chat for them and their friends, but for all the fans, and that the chat needs to be kept at an according level. To be honest, we’ve seen this coming for a while, but still, to see the chat actually falling into this is depressing, and I’m a fool who can’t bring herself to just impose superstrict discipline and such on everyone….

More ranting is ready, but I think that I just sound more and more like a whining person as I continue XD

On a side note, I really do have to get on Runescape more, since I still haven’t made good on that promise to Jamie o.O

Happy Chinese New Year!

Yeaaah, I kind of forgot my password, but I went and actually checked my email to find it in order to post again >_>

Happy Chinese New Year!! The lovely time of year where my grandparents make all sorts of neat decorations and amazing food just for Chinese New Year, when we put out candy platters that no one actually eats, and tons of plates with oranges and tangerines get placed all over the house! Plus, I get my year’s income from the red envelope exchanging

Some people at school seriously took the day off, saying that they should be excused for a holiday… I don’t understand how they could even try to use Chinese New Year as an excuse for that, but….yeah…..

Why do I Fail at Blogs?

Someone — Wed, 09 Jan 2008 22:04:56 +0000

Yeah, so, I have a long and bumpy history with blogs and all those memoir-type sites like this. I used to have a Xanga looong ago, but neglected it, came back to find it full of malicious spammers, and killed it. Then I had a Piczo and Myspace, around the same time, but once again I alternated between forgetting the password to them, neglecting them, finding out that I have no life and thus nothing to post about, and such. Then just for kicks, Myspace decided to have its long standing grudge for me, aka freezing and annihilating my internet browser. It hates me, and its true, it even did this when I tried it from the library… Which of course, brings me to WordPress, the latest in a long line of victims of Jen’s Neglectfulness and Lack of Interest in Blogs. Yeah.

So here’s a post, let it now be said that I may actually hit 5 posts before…say……next year?

Not that anyone knows this blog exists, really, but that’s ok >_>

More Snow….

Someone — Mon, 19 Nov 2007 21:15:39 +0000

Well, to add more to the snow thing, it DID keep going, all day. All night. All morning. All afternoon almost. And you know what? We still didn’t get a snow day. Or a half day, or a delayed opening. We ended up getting like half a foot of snow, and the school bus could barely make it to my house, but noooo, we can’t have a snow day.

Spent the whole day staring out the window at the snow…yeah….

On a side note, the day just got worse when I got all my final tests of the marking period back. No, they were NOT good. Yes, I’m pretty sure I’m failing at least spanish, math, and chem. Yeah.

BUT, we DID get snow, so I’m still happy about that. Until report cards come…

Yes this is a choppy post. No, I don’t care. Yes, this Thanksgiving will have little thankfulness. No, you won’t see a nice long and logical post from me >_>

Snow!!

Someone — Sun, 18 Nov 2007 19:33:42 +0000

Yaaay! So, when I woke up this morning and saw the air full of snow, I was deliriously happy and running around….then I realized it wasn’t sticking

That didn’t stop me from spending like two hours staring at it falling though…. Hurrah for the first big snow flurry of the season!!

Uh…

Someone — Fri, 16 Nov 2007 02:24:43 +0000

I was really bored, so I decided to make a random wordpress!! Yay! I might also make one for the Shurty Chat Forums, unless Jamie gets to it first…
