There once was a time where the clique I belonged to on the web was that of Titanic fans. I had my fan site (on Geocities, of course) and posted on other people’s tagboards (nobody had another sort of comment system on their sites, except if they were on LiveJournal).

Now I’m working on some little project of mine and for the occasion I dugg into old sites of mine (which are still on my computer) and found some way old sites that are still working! They haven’t been updated for ages and they look ugly as hell, but they are still there!

Christa’s Titanic Gallery was one of the cool places to get images from the movie. Warning: the site loads extremely slowly. Images look really small, but note two things. First, back then, most people had much smaller resolutions. 800×600 was probably the most popular, and there were certainly people with 640×480 (there are still some today, but they are mostly hiding from shame). Second, it was not yet the age of DVDs. Most people bought VHSs. I remember when DVDs came out and they were the expensive things the privileged ones bought…

A careful eye might also have noticed how few coding errors are actually in the site because it doesn’t even use crappy tables or something like that

I’m going back to the good old days now…

Well, well, well…I uploaded the site yesterday (days confuse me because I have a crappy schedule) and I already have some changes in mind.

First, I found potential hosts (actually, two people have replied to a forum thread by me asking for a host, and I just have to choose one). This means, of course, that the site will MOVE AWAY FROM HERE! Celebration!

Second, I will change the file naming system. I already have finished, I think…I just need to make sure nothing’s broken. I think it will be better for SEO.

Third, I have no reason for saying third because there’s nothing else that comes to my mind.

I’m trying to do some revi

I just took a long walk in the Old Montreal, for about two hours. The weather was just perfect. It was neither too fresh nor too warm, not too windy, not rainy, sunny but not overly so…I went to the old harbor, I love this place. There are a couple of ponds, one of which has some kind of “island” with a few trees and benches. I sat on the grass, leaning against one of the trees. This is such a comfortable position, your butt and legs freshened by the grass and your back comfortably installed.

I came back to delight in a capiccolo (spelling?) and tomato sandwich (with mayonnaise, of course). I just finished eating and am now sitting at the computer (duh!), listening to good music and drinking a huge glass of water. The one thing I longed for during my walk was something to drink, but I didn’t want to buy anything there because I knew it would be far too expensive. I was going to buy a popsicle in some shop on the way back, but then I remembered I have some delicious ones in the freezer. This means that I will have taken a lengthy walk, which is good for one’s legs, digestion, sleep and mind, at no cost at all. Isn’t it wonderful?

I’m still working on my novel. I haven’t written much since yesterday, but it is forming in my head progressively and I’m satisfied with the result up to now.

My sister and her boyfriend are going to the United States next Monday “to climb up a mountain”. This means that I will be alone all day long, unless Eric comes here. I’m trying to see one of our common friends (his best friend and a not-so-well-known friend of mine), but he’s pretty much always busy…

I know I have posted it several times, but, god, Green Day’s old music rocks.

I have finally made my first entry on As A Dream and already have an idea for the next one. I only need to gather a few websites and think of a longer entry to write along with it.

I still don’t know what I’m going to do next semester. I’m still in cinema for the university, but, for me, I’m not sure it’s a good idea anymore. My “deepest” vocation is wri
