Munny.

Beef of the moment: Hidden fees. So when I (or Daddy, rather) paid for my tuition, there were some fees included. They were listed as comprehensive, tech, and FT (fitness) building fees on my receipt. One would assume, seeing that they had paid fees for the fitness building, that they'd be able to USE it. Such was not the case when I finally worked up the courage to walk in to that shiny glass building. The girl at the desk scanned my ID and revealed to me that I had not paid the fees to use the gym and that they were paid separate from the tuition. If the comprehensive fees got me my parking permit, and the tech fees allow me to use the computer lab, why the hell can't I use the gym? Nice thing of the moment: Discount stores I'm not talking about those cheap stores that sell evidently cheap/crappy/worthless junk, I'm talking about those stores that sell nice, quality things for cheap. It feels great going into one, spending only $15, and coming out with a whole bag of stuff. So you can imagine how bummed (and futless) I was when I found out the Daiso (now my favorite store <3) at one of the malls near here closed down, especially after having walked through the mall trying to find it twice. But you can also imagine how happy I was when I found out that there was another one at another mall (albeit farther away from here). Hooray for having money left in your pocket. 09:56 AM | 1 Comment

Things.

I have this weird thing (okay, a lot of things) where when I'm around complete strangers, I try to make myself as "small" and unnoticeable as possible. I don't confront others unless there is an absolute dire need to, and even then I'll try to avoid it. I sometimes will avoid being confronted by others because I'm not comfortable interacting with other people (It's a wonder I even had a job once). I don't really know why I do this. Sometimes I think it would be nice to have someone to talk to but at others I am perfectly fine being alone. I was amazed to see how people here freely made conversations with complete strangers. I was always so used to keeping to myself and not wanting to "bother" anyone with my presence. At times I wonder, occasionally even hope, that I'll "outgrow" this thing. Seeing my dad (who is also very introverted, but nowhere near as much as I), I'm beginning to doubt it. I think I'm too afraid to. I have also come to the conclusion that I have had an unconscious (well, conscious now) thing for guys with thick eyebrows. It sounds odd, especially compared to my things for glasses and nice hands (haha). When I think of thick eyebrows I want to laugh. But thinking about the guys I've seen lately that I've found decent-looking or attractive, many of them had caterpillar-esque eyebrows. I'm beginning to question my taste. 02:32 PM | 1 Comment

The deed is done.

Notice something different? It's probably because I've just switch from Wordpress to Chyrp. It might also be because my blog has moved back to celoria.net, when it was previously at celoria.net/blog. That said, I feel pretty accomplished. I never thought I'd move away from Wordpress after getting used to customizing themes for it and not wanting to figure out how to customize another platform, but here we are. So why the switch? Of course the ever-so-tantalizing reason of trying something new, and because Chyrp is so much more lightweight. It has a lot of the same features Wordpress has, but there were considerably fewer files to upload, which was nice since I hate waiting for files to upload. :Q I would still recommend Wordpress, but I just wanted a change. Now to figure out how to code a theme for Chyrp. :S As for the new URL, what was once at celoria.net is now at fan.celoria.net. I guess the whole reason for things being the way they were before today's move was so that people I knew offline would have a harder time stumbling upon my blog. I guess it doesn't matter so much now. I have nothing to hide. >O Most of the time.. It always bothered me how my fanlisting collective would be at the root when it made more sense for my blog to be there but I was too worried about the aforementioned motive. (I apologize to those [rare few] of you who have me linked. This should be the last time. Promise!) Well, things are going all right in real life. Classes are still excruciatingly boring, especially pre-calc. I wonder if I'd still have to take it if my advisor knew I took it (and college prep chemistry >O) in high school. Heh, nothing I can do about it now. Curse me and my inability to speak up. Just a few more weeks. I've never experienced such dry air before. My skin is drier than it's ever been. How greedy it is. I'll use lotion but it still gasps for moisture. My arms aren't as smooth as they used to be. Not that they were wonderfully smooth before, but it was ten times better than it is now. I almost miss the heavy, sticky humidity of Hilo. :[ 09:39 PM | 1 Comment
