A wasted vacation? Maybe.
I definitely haven’t been posting as much as I’d like to. It’s summer, so I was expecting myself to be writing and coding a lot, posting more and making new layouts, but, as you’ve probably noticed, that probably isn’t going to be happening anytime soon.
I actually came up with a lot of things to post recently, but they’re never the kinds of things I can post. Too many incomplete thoughts, this post probably being one of them.
In the coding and designing side, I’ve come up with pretty much nothing. I try to code, but I never feel like it anymore. I actually designed one layout a few weeks ago, but it doesn’t seem like the kind of layout I’d use, so I ended up not coding it. I’d been meaning to get into some HTML5 and CSS3, as well as learn some PHP, before the school year started, but, again, I just haven’t been in the mood for it.
I’m not going to force myself to do something half-heartedly; I know from experience that it wouldn’t end well if I did.
So, what have I been doing besides writing and coding? Well, these past weeks were basically spent either asleep, reading or playing Pokemon. What a waste of summer.
It’s actually pretty awesome that I’ve been reading so much lately, considering how I was before, but you already know all about that since I’d written about it in one of my recent posts. 11 books in a span of 3 weeks is a big improvement from 1 book a year.
And Pokemon – this is the farthest I’ve ever gone in a game. In the past I’ve played Pokemon Sapphire and Pokemon Pearl, both times never making it past the Elite 4. This time, though, with Pokemon Black, I’ve done it. I beat the Elite 4. This time, I didn’t get bored of the game before I got the chance to. I didn’t exaggerate the difficulty of the ordeal and chicken out. I got through, and now I’m playing Pokemon pretty much every day. It’s kind of sad, really.
I guess it is a vacation. I might as well do nothing while I still have the option to. Actually doing something, maybe that would be a waste. I’m just kidding, of course. But there’s nothing wrong with being a bit of a couch potato for a while.
Hey hun! summer has only begun,theres still a lot of time left to do what you want to, i know how you feel when you say that sometimes you just dont like what you design and code, i feel like that a lot myself! But dont worry i am 100 percent sure you will like it once it’s up =D I have soooo many unused designs its not even funny but Im so glad you like the current one, I think i liked it after I made like ten before haha! And yes, about god, its true, i think how the different religions tend to portray god, it really confuses many people about the whole idea of it in the first place. If you ever want to exchange links do let me know sweety! always a pleasure coming by and reading your blog. =D

I tell myself that I’ll code a little bit more or do this and that but when it comes down to it and I actually have time, I make up an excuse to not do it. It might be a little sad but you can’t force yourself to do something otherwise the result would just be terrible. I got bored with blogging so I took a little hiatus; I feel a lot better now! Still not sure what to blog about but I felt a bit bad abandoning all my visitors.
I don’t blame you for getting so into Pokemon; it really does get addicting! I have this surreal persona and determination that I HAVE to “catch ‘em all”. Some of them I can’t since I never seen the Pokemon in the game and some people get really greedy when it comes to trading. ‘Cuz of that, unfortunately I have to cheat and use a hack. Granted, I don’t do it until AFTER I beat the game; kind of screws up the whole storyline otherwise. I’ve only beaten Diamond but I have played others. Only other ones I have with me or SoulSilver and Platinum. My DS broke so I have a reason for not playing. Should consider buying another one… meh.
