Once upon a time, I was blogging.

You thought I was stating the obvious?! Well, think again. I am talking about me in The Sims 2! Yesss… Muffin and I bought a Playstation 2 a few months ago, and I bought The Sims 2 to go with it. Now that my exams are over [only one more last kind of very important thing coming up, though] I find myself finally getting the hang of that game on the PS2. I have played The Sims, and The Sims 2, on PC… but it’s nothing like this!

So I was kind of excited and easily amused when I found out that the computer had a little option called "Blog". I found it very cute! And then after blogging, a little blue screen informed me that the blog had "1% popularity! Keep on blogging, more popular is cool, cool is fun!". Or something along those lines [I have to look it up, to be sure].

Apart from playing The Sims 2, I watched The Illusionist with Muffin, and it was quite nice. A little bit dark, a little bit like Perfume – well, it just reminded me of it, is all – but I love plot twists like this. You think you know… but you have no idea! A bit like Ocean’s Eleven and Bandits and there should be more and more and more movies like this! If you have any recommendations, don’t hesitate to tell me!

And now what I need to do, apart from keeping up with real life blogging, is this stupid layout and that terrible redirecting problem for my fanlistings… Grrrr. I’ll be quite busy with that, I suppose! Xo!

Once upon a time, I don’t know what I did.

DAAAAMN. Daaaamn! Okay, so about 75% of my daily reads have gone missing. Yes, I’m looking at you, Sarah and Lotte and Lil [but Lil's coming back, and I speak to Lotte somewhat regularly thanks to LJ and Sarah still has dA, so that's not the worst thing] but Hellloooo! What am I going to read now? Hmmm! People, if you’re reading my blog and you have a blog and you want to motivate me to keep going with my blog.. comment! And I’ll add you to my feeds and blogroll and all that super awesome cool stuff, and I’ll feel less lonely.

Apart from that disaster, I also managed to do one big month of daily updates and then a month of pure silence. Isn’t that awesome? No, it isn’t. Bah. And now that I feel motivated to create a new layout [and I got Muffin's Wacom tablet working on Nymphadora! How awesome...!] it’s obviously time to study. Exams. If there’s one thing I don’t like it’s studying. I don’t do it. I just somehow never got trained to do it. I somehow got through things without studying. So I don’t know how to do it. And I can’t do it. My body plain refuses to do it! How annoying. I make this plan to go studying and wham.. I find myself doing the dishes. I never do the dishes but ooohh! When I have to study I magically do the dishes. Or update my fanlistings. Or fold my clothes. Or arrange my CDs in alphabetical order.

All these things need to happen of course, but sometimes they lead to disaster. Like right now. Because I was happily updating my fanlistings, and I got so annoyed by the redirecting [the url "fan.striped-socks.be" works, but sometimes it goes to "http://www.striped-socks.be/fan.striped-socks.be/" - which doesn't make any sense and is lame!] so I tried to fix it. And now I broke it. AND I DON’T KNOW WHAT I DID. So I can’t fix it. Bahhhh. It’s FuckedUp.

I’m so scared I will lose everything again. Booo. Maybe that’s what needs to be done, and then I fix that stupid redirecting thing and then I reupload. But now, what needs to be done is.. I need to study. I really need to study. I have exams. DAMNIT, Vief. GET. TO. STUDYING.

Here’s a plan of action, however, that I’m putting out there publicly so I might stick to it in the end.

  1. study.
  2. figure out that redirecting thing and fix fanlistings-thing
  3. fix layout
  4. update regularly
  5. flickr-backlog [LOL]
  6. sock reviews!
