How About That!

You'd be surprised to learn that a person you think you know astounds you by doing the most ridiculous things you can think of. I love surprises but to find out that he/she/they -- what?! Now how about that!

Changing Colors

I must have been drunk.

A friend of mine complained about my blog being bland, ugly, boring, bland, ugly, and boring. Fine. So it was insipid, featureless, unimaginative and… whatever. She reminded me that my background color was black (though it’s not a color) and when she viewed it, she saw that my font colors were white and gray. She said it was dull.

Immediately after I went home, I opened my blog and looked at it. Sure, it was black, and there were gray and white and… ugh! I hated it! I realized I should mess with blogger’s new feature and decorate my online diary.

Just last night, I was practically hitting my computer because I forgot my username and password. Ticked off, I clicked “I cannot access my account”. I was told there was an email sent to my address and there I would find the details of my blog.

I received some email, but heck! It contained no information. Nada. There was nothing! I typed furiously and remained in there, hanging on for almost thirty minutes. One of my classmates, Ecnart, was online, and was bugging me if I was done with my post. I told him I forgot my password; he replied that that was a big problem. I agreed and continued hacking my own account.

Finally, I realized I only have one gmail account. Stupid me, I didn’t try it at first, since I could remember that my username was howaboutthat. Alas! It was not. I was truly frustrated with myself, but delighted when I finally opened my account. That was not a nice night, but it ended my online-status good.

So, there I was, clicking “Fonts and Colors” (settings tab). I was delighted to change my blog into something more colorful.

Background: Black

It was the first one.

Next were the fonts. I chose yellow.

Not bad.

Next were the headers.

I chose peach.

Eew! That’s repulsive! my mind yelled. But I selected it anyway.

Next was the tagline.

Pink.

My God, are you nuts?? Peenk?!

Next were the links.

Uhmm… blue?

Fine.

Light blue?

You’re disgusting!

But I chose it anyway.

Visited links.

Violet?

No, it should be lavender.

OMG! You’re sleepy; stop it right now!! Continue designing tomorrow!!

And so I slept. With my blog horribly colored. I actually couldn’t sleep. It let me stay awake for hours.

Now it’s Sunday. I hastily walked up to my computer when I arrived home and opened it. Then I designed my blog.

Just like how you see it right now.

I must be sick. SICK!
