MY, MY. how can I resist you indeed. And when I say "you" I meant "the temptation of remaking my layout once again". This is the 5th, and...I really do like it so far! Coming back from a lot of schoolwork kind of made me forget how to pick up what I left off. Basically, I had some big plans for the last layout, which was proving to be a bit harder and harder to do. I got a bit too overwhelmed until I just decided to do it all over again.

And it's been pretty fun, to be honest! A LOT of the content was lifted from the previous layout which made my life a bit easier, as it let me focus more on the style rather than the content. I've always wanted to dabble with user-picked themes, and so far it's been working swell! It was a whole ordeal trying to figure it out, but I'm super glad it worked in the end. Much thanks to kalechips dot net for the styleswitcher script once again >:] I already linked the resource in my links section, but it doesn't hurt to mention it here too!

Generally there's a lot of new stuff and reorganizing happening here, as you may have noticed. I finally put up my previous site layouts for you to look at! I also condensed my art, stories, and ocs into the works section for navigational simplicity. And of course, this blog page is getting a new look--the changelog has its own page now, and all blog entries are grouped into months! As much as I loved the Javascript filtering method, I figured it would be best to not have all of my blog entries on a single page especially since I WILL be adding more onto it. I heavily considered using Zonelets as a template, but the format that I wanted to do isn't really possible on that...I also considered adding pages made from this kool tool called Domino 2, but it was a bit tricky to work in my css into it...I LOVE the formatting of it though, and maybe you can check it out for yourself! Who knows, maybe you guys will see a domino board on this site soon!

This is already getting pretty long, so um!!! More updates will come soon, I've finally figured out a good character profile format for my story Therefore I Am (see: Ozzy), I watched Infinity Train with my partner (VERY VERY GOOD), I'm participating in ArtFight this year as well!! BUT I had to take a break from drawing due to my hand acting up, and this is what I've been doing in the meantime. Other than that, I bought a Nintendo Switch in a family trip from Japan (really good trip btw however I was so damn tired always), and I've been playing (JAPANESE REGION-LOCKED) Splatoon 2 and (NOT REGION-LOCKED) Animal Crossing: New Horizons! Both have been really fun. I've also been playing Brawlhalla on that.

Alright this is getting way too long and rambly and I am so so eepy sO. I'll leave it at that! I won't set up the blog archives yet (see: eepy) so consider it a little teaser. If you want to see the old blog in the meantime, here it is!
