Mako's Babbles: Nov. '99

november 1st, 1999: today is the day i've been dreading....the day of the pop-ups. but, i've checked the page and i don't see them...yet. but they are coming, and when they do i will not be a happi grrl!
in other, happier news...soon i will be revamping the site. it needs it. i'm tired of looking at the front page, cuz it's gotten too long and annoying. don't worry, i'm not erasing anything that's there, i'm just planning to make it look a little better. i've been experimenting with tables, and it seems that i'm having pretty good luck. so hopefully within a week or two there will be a new front page.

november 4th, 1999: i've been so busy with school lately that i haven't had much time to do anything here. my computer is also acting really odd, but at least it hasn't crashed. so i guess i shouldn't complain. i'm working on the updates whenever i have a chance, but that hasn't been a lot lately. the first few pages, at least are going to be all tabled and small enough to keep you from scrolling.
why do people hate scrolling anyway? it's not like it's difficult to do. are people really that lazy? do they have that short of an attention span? i have ADD and i can scroll down a page! the only time i don't bother is if i don't think it's worth it. like, if the page looks really pointless and stupid, i just won't bother.
but that enough out of me for now. i have other stuff to do. see ya later.

november 15th, 1999: in case you haven't noticed (and i don't know how you couldn't), the site has pretty much been completely redone. ok, the info pages are still the same, but the intro pages (and the index) look completely different. i worked hard to make them, and i want recognition. lots of it. give me awards, praise, money...*lol*
in other news, this site was reviewed by the Three Cats, and i guess it's a half-decent review. but it's a review of the way it USED to look. which is kind of amusing, actually, cuz the review was supposed to be up a month or 2 ago, when i hadn't even thought of redesigning. now that i have, the review goes up talking about the OLD design. go figure.
another thought that crossed my mind earlier this morning... sailormoon is a "gateway anime". what i mean is that it tends to introduce people to the world of anime. many ppl never get beyond SM, but those who do go on to become full-fledged anime otaku. interesting, huh? yeah, i know, not really. oh well. indulge me. it's MY page and i can say whatever i want to. so there.

november 18th, 1999: the latest news is that my internet from home has been taken away once again, and i'm not happy. my father has to realize that i'm 20 years old and will do whatever i feel like doing, even if that includes staying up half the night talking on ICQ. ok, yeah, it may be mildly sad that that's the highlight of my day. i admit that. but it IS what makes me happy. so what does he care?
once again, as usual when ranting, i am NOT in a very good frame of mind at the moment. which i also have to say is partly a result of my having to be in a classroom in 15 minutes. i hate school. well, i don't mind it really, but it makes me frustrated. i just want to sleep for a long long time.
on a positive note, it looks like i've been getting a lot of positive feedback on my new design. i'm so happy! after all, it's nice to know i didn't do all that work for nothing...*s*
