New Year New Template New Resolutions

I read from somewhere that someone realised how fragile life is after the tsunami tragedy, things that one worked so hard for were simply washed away by the merciless waves. Inspired, I urge everyone to stop and smell the roses, savour every moment and have the courage to explore cos life is, indeed, beautiful.

After months of lazing around (I really like the frog pic, and I knew that creating a brand new skin will take years.), I'm finally motivated enough to create a new template. I have decided that I'll have a brand new look for my blog in the new year. (Also, I'm doing Siti a favor so that she won't have to avoid looking at the frogs whenever she reads my blog.)Thank you Yingqi for moving me, Here it is..

After 2days of hard work, it's finally done. Phew.. The script for this skin is pretty complex, I must say. It took me hours and hours to decipher which code is for what through trial and error. Also, another couple of hours, admiring the picture even though I made tiny changes. Time wasted as I decide to put pictures in and out of the layout cos I didn't want them to block the background. But most of all, it was the message that I wanted to convey through the look that took the most time. Though the resulting template could have taken me just a couple of hours to do, my perfectionism surprised me. (GRACE SIM --> PERFECTIONIST??!! my toes are laughing.)

Now that I'm done with it, I think it'll take quite some time before I'm ever gonna change my template again due to the following reasons:

1. This skin is just too nice. muahahahahah
2. School's started and I'm starting to dread computers.
3. Not much time la.. (Trainings and stuff and stuff.)
4. No design inspiration as yet. (Just lazy to kill brain cells.)

Whatever the reasons are, they are excuses. I'll try my best to beautify my blog whenever I can. It's a always nice to receive compliments about my blog skin.


Year 2005 will be a brand new start for me. I'll be kicking some bad habits now than I'm no longer a Teenager. One of those habits includes my sloppiness and another.. much to the BHPians dismay, my greediness for food. (Now that will be hard.. trust me)

Meanwhile have a great year ahead and a pleasant new year. =)
