Christmas Eve

Well unlike most fellows on the day of christmas eve, Im not really excited or looking forward to anything. Its as if there was no christmas for me, my parents said Im not getting presents due to our financial situation (which I have no problem with). Its being grounded on christmas day that makes it hard to enjoy anything. I was supposed to play a show with my band the 26th at a major house party, but since my BELOVED teacher gave me a D for something i didnt do I cant play guitar. I cant go to my youth group, due to the circumstance's that im grounded as well. Im a complete prisoner, cant do anything, just study and do school work. By nonetheless im still grateful for another year of life, many people didnt make it to see this year, and thankfully I so far have. My life is really bitter right now, but in good time Im sure everything will turn out okay. Anyways, merry christmas and a happy new year to all.

Make your bed, lie in it, bury your grave, die in it

Due to certain issues with parents and grades I will have to postpone my site till some time next year, I’m not sure yet. Its progression will be very lengthy, in other words do not bother to remember it, perhaps it might not even occur. Although this blog will still be here and be updated, although we still cannot begin our design portfolio. There will be plenty of posts and updates not to mention more articles.

So far, so good

This week I went to the library to try to find some interesting books on the whole designing aspect(Photo Shop bibles, Flash books, CSS, etc...). As I walked up the stairs, to my immediate suprise the library upgraded all of its designer books, henceforth, I went completely ballistic when I saw all these utterly fantastic books. They had a very fair amount of Photo Shop CS2 books, which was amazing due to the fact that the latest they had was photoshop8. Not to mention a load of CSS/HTML/XML books, and webstandard guidline books. It seemed that these books were being placed in that library specifically for my needs. So I took out the following:
Photo Shop CS2 professional edition BIBLE
and
Spring into(edition) HTML and CSS

both are magnificent books.
Although Im learning more from the HTML and CSS book since its what Im trying to focus on, the Photo Shop book is great, Im learning things I didnt know were possible to accomplish.
So far so good, I already got to the third chapter of the HTML/CSS book.
well that a wrap for todays post.

CSS/HTML goal

Well recently I never thought much of CSS, I thought it was an option or perhaps a waist of my most precious time. Nevertheless I now have to come to it, and must learn its every detail. I thought I would be able to escape the knowledge of coding and just make websites in a most desctructive manner, with text flying everywere, in the most crimson forms known to the world wide web. So as I was working on my site, a sudden ray of light hit me and brought me to understanding of the necessity of this coding language. Before I begin my site, or any other site, I intend to learn CSS and HTML. I will therefore reschedule all site releases until I can atleast know something. My goal is to know as much as possible by January 2006, but it is not at a imparient manner, rathe I will make an attemp as if to take my time, as to not create much blasphemy towards websites in general. So here I go most long and grusome road of coding, but at the end Im sure I will benefit from it much self satisfaction.
