Knock on Wood
Well first off- *Knocks on Wood* I think I have found some Web designing inspiration through a project for school and i’m gonna see it through till I have edited every page on the current site. I’m thinking of actually making a layout again but I don’t have adobe or anything still! Well I have to start with the coding because i’ve been out of it for soooo long ~ Last night I forgot the code for the new Paragraph
and all I could remember was line break
! The site i’m working with was designed through Dream Weaver the code isn’t as recognizable to me but with some plug and chug I fixed an alignment issue that has been bugging me for MONTHS! I really need to get on this quick because I said i was supposed to work on this the entire five weeks of christmas and I just barely touched it because I couldn’t FIGURE OUT how to view the code on a MAC! I was looking for a something like notepad but all I found was TextEdit and it was showing me the rich text preview rather than the code itself- being so frustrated I totally forgot to check the preferences- WELL now I have that fixed so I can do this the old fashion way but I wish I could edit with a program that color coded the HTML so I can see if I closed all the code and all that jazz! I don’t want a machine that will completely give me all the HTML in one click btw! I like doing it myself but I had to give in to something like wordpress because it’s so time consuming to research all this stuff on your own. WELL there’s gotta be a starting point right?! I started off learning HTML with basic coding tutorials on a forum and then looked at the sources of other sites and learned how it all worked Anyways, i’m on my way to getting into the swing of being productive- Here’s to a new productive year and semester
!
Dream Log
So last night I had a strange dream.. I was at college but it seemed like younger kids were there as well so maybe it was like Choir Camp. The Stage was like the one I graduated on in High School. Some of the most prestigious faculty were there as well.
It was like we were having a talent show/ competition and I showed up around 30 minutes before I thought I was going to sing. Well I sat by people and kinda socialized and then I find out that I was already called up and I would be next now!! I hadn’t even warmed up or anything. Well the program said that I was supposed to sing Eyes On Me from Final Fantasy VIII which no one in the audience probably knew at all. I got up there and I didn’t remember at all what I was going to sing… I went over to the piano and started IMPROVISING!! Now I never improvise in real life. I was playing the piano and everything while “ooo”ing some notes and I even went up to a pretty high note which some people started cheering on. Before you know It i’m pretty much making it up as I go and I’m singing words like “I don’t know what to say” but I played it off as if it was the subject of the song. I had some awkward pauses and stuff but I remember it being pretty damn good! I finished the piece and I knew I was being judged and some people came up to be and said that I picked the most immature song ever and it was totally not like me! I think I saw some glares from some teachers I knew… I woke up before I the results were announced.
I really don’t know what to make of this! The things I pull from it is that I do have stage fright in some form or other… the other might be that I truly want to write songs on my own and play the piano while at it. ALSO I think it meant that I have the ability to hit those not so high notes that I think are high! I’ll have to keep thinking on this one
