slaving away at the monitor.

For the past week, I've been rushing to finish my website which was due today for IST. Luckily, I finished it late last night and everything worked out in the end. *sigh*. Funnily enough, if I didn't show my sister, it wouldn't have turned out as good as it has. Without her blunt criticism of my choice of background colours and layouts, it wouldn't have been as good as I said before. Though she probably won't read this, I commend her greatly for her advice. Don't tell her I said that though.

"Pat, why don't you just use a black background with white text? It's easier to read and a lot better in general."
"I was thinking about doing that, but I thought it'd be too repetitive."
"It's not repeptitive, it's consistent."

Thinking back to that, she had a good point. Looking at the website again, it turned out a lot better than I'd hoped. Really. If I could, I'd post it somewhere so readers could see it, but I think people would get capped before exploring the whole site (too many pictures and videos). Tidying up the website photos, links and writing up the information for each Final Fantasy were probably the hardest parts. While designing the FFVIII page, it took me an hour and a half to figure out why the images weren't projecting properly. The frame on the side moved all my images to the right, so I had to move each image to the right so that it didn't overlap with the text and didn't fall too far away from the text. I think that the nicest parts of the website is the music that plays on each history page, especially FFX (Summoned is really nice =D).

Grid Iron was fun. Can't say I was too good, seeing as how we didn't score, but it was still fun. I wish we could've played class vs. class, but oh well. At least we didn't have to go to that history seminar last period. My condolences to those that found it a harrowing experience XD.

My dad is leaving for the Phils again on Sunday, so we're gonna have an early Father's Day lunch tomorrow. Hm, not much else to say that I can think of at the moment...I guess that'll do for now.
