Changes To Come

Thursday, July 19th, 2007

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

Spring Walk

Saturday, May 19th, 2007

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

Anail Natharch…or something like it

Monday, May 14th, 2007

The soundtrack to The Pick of Destiny rocks. It is one of the many movies my boyfriend and his best friend keep quoting, leaving me with a “what the hell are you talking about?” face.

Yesterday, we watched Excalibur. It was good; not the best movie I’ve ever seen (what is the best movie I saw, anyway?), but still quite enjoyable. It has made me curious about Arthurian legends but, since I already have six books borrowed from the library, it will have to wait a little.

I’m thinking of studying in computers, probably programming or something like it. My main interesting is in web scripting languages, like PHP and ASP, the latter of which I know pretty much nothing. Since I already have a basic knowledge of PHP, I believe I would do well. However, when I look at possible programs, I see things like “Quantum Computing” and “Introduction to Theoretical Computing”. Just the word “quantum” is enough to make me run away. The idea of going into deep theories doesn’t interest me. I want coding. Pure coding, all clean, secure and useful. Provided you consider things like “coding my fanlistings” useful. Of course, were I to follow my intention of studying in the domain, I would actually get a job in it, not just code my personal sites. I have more sense than that, after all.

It’s sunny outside and quite comfortable, so I should go and take a walk. After supper.

I found a very small, but good looking and very clean park nearby my apartment. It’s less than ten minutes by foot. There are huge trees, obviously planted there by humans, but still trees, all healthy and gorgeous. There is also a small dog park, so my boyfriend and I go all excited at the sight of these running furry creatures. It’s surrounded by rather quiet streets, so it’s a pleasant place to hang out. It’s also quite shadowy, which is always good when it’s hot outside. Trees shadow is so much more effective than any other type of shadow. Trees rock (no pun intended).

I’m looking forward to the month of July. My sister and her boyfriend are moving away, so my boyfriend and a friend are moving in. The apartment will like, totally be mine (somehow). July 1st is something like the Official Moving Day in Quebec, mostly in Montreal. This is the day where most people change apartments. Change, yes, because usually you move from one apartment to another. Or into a condo. The difference between an apartment and a condo is that the apartment is rented, while the other is bought. Condos are really the “in” thing in Montreal right now. They’re getting built all over the place, and sold within very short amounts of time. I would never buy one for two reasons. First, they’re often expensive. Then, I would certainly not want to own something in Montreal. No way.
