Welcome to Simple Complications

Ahahahahah. Haha. HAH. My goodness, I'm even worse at starting things and then losing interest than I thought! In this case, it was probably because I'm way too lazy to figure out how to properly code things, and I tend to get impatient with my designs real quick. Therefore, I'm scrapping the whole "be-useful-and-make-your-own-website" idea and instead doing what everyone else does.. making a blog! And not just any ole blog, oh no: a FREE blog! Yep, that's right, I'm moving to wordpress.com. Aren't I cool? Anyways, my new website is here, and although it's not off the ground yet, it will be soon. Figured I should update this site, although it's not like anyone ever visits. Well, don't expect to every see an update here again. It was fun while it lasted!
P.S: it's crazy to think that when I started this, I was stressing about midterms. Now I'm stressing about finals. My, how time flies.

Yep, exactly what I thought would happen happened. I lost interest in this site. But, I have regained interest again! I am planning to work on a new layout (maybe download a free trial of photoshop to try an actually make a decent layout?) learn how do code it using PHP properly, and get it set up. And then I think, if I can get it off the ground, I'm going to find a person who's willing to host the site for me. What exactly is this site going to be? Sort of a blog/portfolio/graphics site. Stay tuned, and we'll see if I come back.

Whoa, it finally happened. Lydia (previously known as Flamey/Cooper) has actually re-entered the confusing, enormous, complicated world of websites! But just any ol' sort of website - a blog website! At least somewhat. Actually, I had planned this as more of a porfolio/acrhive where I can keep all of my characters, but that's not important. Wow, it's been a while since I've coded, and I've pretty much forgotten everything. It doesn't help that I've been too lazy - and too busy, what with upcoming highschool and midterms - to remember lately. Besides, I don't think I was ever all that good at coding, anyways. Or graphics, for that matter. So maybe I can actually sit down, get off my butt, and take the time to learn how to do everything properly? If I enjoy it enough, who knows; maybe I'll actually get a domain name.. but perhaps I should grapple with the elusive PHP codes first. You know, so I don't waste my money. My awful coding skills/lack of remembering them is why I'm using this (lovely) premade code by Emily. And also why I'm back on freewebs. Ah, freewebs. So, my dear visitor, don't expect very many updates. At least, not yet. I'd say, bookmark this page, and check it every so often, and eventually something of interest will be here. Or at least, let's hope so.
In the mean time, you can dwell on my awful iframe days by visiting my old site, Shattered Flames. Or, if you so desire, contact me at my occasionally-checked email, simpleshatteredreams@gmail.com. As for how I'm doing? Well, except for already stressing out about my midterms, despite the fact they are 3 or so weeks away, and feeling shocked at the fact that it's already 2010, I'm doing okay. I can't wait to be a senior, but I have to live through sophomore and junior year first.. hell, I can't wait to go to college. I am so ready to be out of highschool. And it's only been 6 months. I'm currently reading the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series (cute, funny, amazing, entertaining, and greek myths - all good!) so I can be ready to watch the movie when it comes out in February. And today I spent most of my afternoon at a very long, but fun - I got to hang out with my friends - swim meet, where I swam 4 events. Including butterfly, yay! So I'm exausted. Well, that's about it. I won't get into any lenghtly angst-filled posts just yet. Oh, and did I mention I finally quit neopets? Hah, took me long enough. It's mostly thanks to my best internet buddy Ghosti, who I still talk to, since we rp together. Oh man, I'm so excited to be back (albeit only somewhat)!
