73/ making graphics make me happy.



This is how I relax C:

Finally changed backgrounds after like, MONTHS of the top one (Y) I still really miss Eurotour08, but there are more pressing matters (HSC).

In all honesty, it took more time for me to decide what to put on it instead of actually making it ): I couldn't decide whether to leave it to just SHINee or add some LMH, BB and B2ST. So I had to look around deviantart a bit to figure out what looks best - a whole mashup of pictures or reediting of one/ two photos. Well you can see what I ended up deciding with.

Hehe ShaWol ftw! 02 november is simple, it's the day I finish my HSC, so I suppose it's a reminder of what's to come and how I really don't have long to go. Everything just relates back to the HSC these days gah. Still, I'm feeling insanely proud of my creation LOLOL. It could be better, but it's late/ early and I just couldnt be stuffed to continue fixing it LOL. I had to redo the entire background just because I was randomly drawing on it and it didnt ctrl-z properly afterwards! T_TT.

While I was making it, I was also going to post a whole list of bible verses on it, except I stupidly copy and pasted an entire passage which was too much for poor GIMP.

IT FROZE ITSELF and I was panicking because I hadn't saved it at all since I started, so if I restarted GIMP, I'd have lost THE ENTIRE THING. Which was why I was so adamant that EVEN IF I had to leave my computer on all night for it to unfreeze itself, I would. There was just no way that I'd let hours of work just disappear because I accidentally added too much in one go T_TT. It took 15 way too long minutes to unfreeze. I just hate it when my computer lags.

Today was superbly hectic. Woke up late, I was supposed to get up at 8 but I pretty much slept until 830 ==; Intu started at 9 and it takes me half an hour to get to Epping from my place by car. So I was already in a rush ): Did my second ESP (that I MUST REDO LOL BECAUSE I MUSTVE DONE SO CRAP IN IT). TWO HOURS is such a long timeeee. I nearly fell asleep sigh. I could feel myself not trying very hard during ESP. Crap. ==; I'm scared about going to my first class kus then I'd have to get my exam back and I just did so bad that I have to laugh about it or otherwise I'd cry.

Went to library afterwards and saw Natalie and Ruth C: but library closes at noon on Saturdays -rages- so I had to go to GJs instead. Walked with Ruth to the other side of Epping kus she had Talent, and we saw Cabbage just after we got to the other side before we all dispersed towards our respective tutoring places :D. Ordered a chicken and sundried tomato filo at GJs - about $6, yum but not filling enough- and just did maths for about an hour before maths tutoring.

After that, walked back to the library for mum to pick me up and slept on the way back home. I had about 15mins really, to finish getting ready for english tutoring straight after, but it took me half an hour instead ==; trying to print and find everything because due to a change in tutoring times, I lost an hour to do english work. Had english tutoring, which consisted of A LOT of cutting down of my essays and got home, watched a bit of TV, ate spag bol while rents went out for dinner with family friends and made my new computer background after such a long day of hardcore tutoring C: yayy.

Oh btw! For all 3ueng people who are still wondering about 2003+ texts, I emailed m4yers last night and got a reply this morning:

Hi Mrs M4yers!
Just a few minutes ago, someone told me that the texts for 3U has to be written/ produced before 2003. I'm wondering if you can confirm this for me, because for the past two assessments I've used a text that was written in 2005. If it is a problem, would it be fine for me to use LIT, TSN and two related texts (a short story in 1997 and a film in 1999) instead? Or do you think that I should continue to use the one I'm using now?

Thanks in advance!
Tiffany.

Hi Tiffany,
You have asked the 'burning question'! We have been told 3 different answers to this question by different people at the Board of Studies! On Monday, Ms St L0u1s is going to ring D0n C4rt3r - head English bloke at the Board to hopefully get a definitive answer. For the Trial, don't worry. We won't penalise you anyway. Use whatever you have now. I will let you know as soon as we know the right answer. It is ridiculous that even the people who should have the answers, can't agree! Sorry if that is even more confusing!

So yea! I guess it's okay to use 2003+ texts for trials but I will rage if they wont let us for the actual HSC. It'd mean that I'd have to find ANOTHER related text that works with my OTHER related AND the two supplementary o_o. freaking.. ==;

back to the top?
