I know a new layout already. I had to use it after browsing around the net for the next layout I would like to use for my lj. Thought it would match the banner I made for the other one perfectly. Of course I had to change the effects a little to match the colors of the layout.  Added on October the thirty first, it didn’t take too long to add the css, but the one thing that gave me trouble was adding the image banner (with the text as : the strength to get up is more admirable than the strength to lose).  It took me a couple of hours to get the position right. It wasn’t until I finally found a sure fire way to get it correct. Good thing I know a little html/css. If not I would have been clueless in how to fix the problem. Also got some help from the creator of the layout. I really like how the banner itself has this equation I made by accident.

As for the profile section, that also took me forever to finish. I kept playing around with the colors of the banner (the one with Dark from dnangel). It only took me awhile because at first I like it and then I hated it. *sigh* the perfectionist took over. Lmao! Which reminds me I have to add more music. Some of you/viewers might have grown bored to listening to the same thing. I managed to finish all of this on Saturday morning. I didn’t fall asleep until 3:45 am. (I think).

On Halloween, I didn’t do much except stay at home watching horror movies. I watched so many that I couldn’t sleep. I kept thinking about that vampire in the movie Bram Stoker’s Dracula. I couldn’t even stay in the dark without worrying about the whole blood sucking theme going on in my head. @___@ Haha…anyway I felt relieved when I watched anime. I got to see Full Metal Alchemist, Bleach, and a new one which I can’t remember its name.

College is troubling me. I received a letter saying I owe them money. I called to see why and they said that it was for the books. Since I dropped the second class, the financial aid won’t refund my money. It was something along those lines. I’m going to see my counselor tomorrow to ask a few questions. Hopefully she’ll respond to the email I sent her. I don’t want to barge in without notifying her that I’m going by her office. My aunt, who knows all of these things, had told me that I won’t have to pay because the financial aid will deduct the amount from the check. That is why I need to see my counselor. If the school changed its rules, then I won’t be able to register for spring. If the due amount isn’t paid I can’t see my grades, register for classes, and other stuff. It’s frustrating!!! I’m going to keep my fingers crossed that the financial aid will help me out. If not I’ll just have to pay up, slowly but surely.

This will be my last paragraph I swear. XD The odd thing happened to me yesterday. The battery for my laptop is dying slowly. Thank goodness the battery itself didn’t cost too much. My father helped pay it since he was concerned. My computer needs to live. O____O; I’ll die. Ok….not literally but uh whatever. The package will arrive next Tuesday. I can only hope that it can arrive sooner. Trying to operate this laptop with a dying battery is tricky. I should thank my patience for trying again and again to make it turn on properly. Sometimes it doesn’t want to. So I thought to give you all a heads up if I disappear.

HAPPY B-LATED BIRTHDAY RAIAH!!!

Your birthday came on the exact day that my sister has. Neato! I hope you had a good one that is filled with joy and laughter (plus the cake).  With that saying my family and I had to celebrate my sister’s birthday on Saturday since it was the only day she could take a break from. It was fun! We went to Red Lobster. It has been forever since we last went. I was craving for their strawberry cheese cake. Then again I already had sweet treats the day before. Friday in the evening my mom, little sis (not too young but I call her that), and I went to Chicago to get m sister’s birthday cake. When we arrived all of us acted like children (not fusing or anything like that). I got a one cake and a few other things. Yep, you guessed it I have a sweet tooth. Lmao! Anyway my sister turned 20 which is funny I’m 20 year old as well. A year apart it’s fun to tell others we’re the same age. They’ll be all like, “WHAT YOU’RE TWINS!? Why haven’t I been notified of this?” Precious moments….

I had to drop three of my classes since it hasn’t been going well. I don’t know really, but I’ve been questioning myself if I should have gone to school this year. A side of me wanted to take a break because my sister’s outburst, but I thought I could do it. Ah well, at least I can help my mom do things and take it easy for a while. I still have one course to take though. Algebra, still…sadly I didn’t pass the exam. Curse those hard tests. So far the quizzes I took have been better. At least I’m trying. Too bad I’m not like my other sibling who’s a whiz in mathematics.

I haven’t been able to update my journal as I’ve liked. I was either too lazy, played video games, or floating around helping others. XD

One thing that I am worried about is this website I have with this friend of mine. We keep having malicious scripts our coding, which in turn I have to delete everything and upload them again. Funny how the virus doesn’t appear in any of the pages when I’m watching the site each second. Cutenews didn’t allow our news to appear so posted on the forum to get some insight as to why this was happening, and now they tell me that our hosts sever might have a virus. Gosh….never thought this could happen to my website. Hopefully I can figure out something to keep Despair safe.

Oh! I added my music playlist in my lj profile. I only added a few things since file den erased everything. They had some issues with letting its users to see the files they uploaded.

I need to draw and call a few of my friends. @_____@;

Its been far too long hasn’t it? I haven’t wrote in a blog for a very long time and although it may be a year or two years of not writing, it feels like a lifetime of not actually writing things out, so that I don’t keep things bottled in. More or less writing what goes on through my daily life through blogs such as this helps me a lot. Helps me cope I guess. It’s kind of like therapy. I wanted to start fresh and try something new. I had this account since 2006 I believe. A long time since I’ve used it and now I want to put it to good use. Why I didn’t use Everina? I think back then someone took that name so thought up of a cute name for myself. That was when I thought of Evarain. The eva part was on accident when I started to type it out on my keyboard. The rain part was added in there because I love the rain so much that it had to be incorporated somewhere.

Haha… anyway enough of that, as some of you may have noticed I made an image for both BSD and my xanga journal.  Sort of unexpected but I think I’ve made the right choice. I won’t close any of them down because they have too many memories. I’ll defiantly go back to Bright Star Designs and my first blog journal when I wish to. Looking through all of the entries and comments bring me such joy.  Of course I haven’t had the time to look through everything, but seen the recent ones and it makes me look at how I was then. Ah the good times. Hopefully I’ll get to meet my xanga buddies elsewhere. :3 A few of them are on livejournal so I’ll have to get back to them later.

The college life is going well. Sometimes it’s hard for me to be driven since family problems have been lingering this starting year. My youngest sibling is just terrible when it comes to behavior. I worry about her future and on top of that my school work. Since I caught the flu (I’m all better now. I just keep coughing is all.) I’ve been a little distant in my homework and what has to be done. Ugh…difficult but I’ll give it all I’ve got.

Offline I’ve been meaning to finish the game called .hack//G.U. to keep my stress level down a bit and it worked. With luck I finished the last bits of the game. I love how it ended and searching online found out that they had the .hack//G.U. Trilogy movie out in the US. I’m going to try to save up movie and get that. Saw it online but going to get it so my brother can watch with me (family moments). Also found that they’re going to make a game for psp .hack//link and I want that also. XD Lmao. I usually don’t get games on psp or on a little game platform, but the preview on youtube intrigued me enough to try and get it. So excited I can’t wait when it comes out. <3

I really need to catch up on my anime/manga series. I haven’t gone to Borders or saw any anime series, so I’m going to try to watch and read Vampire Knight to fill my anime nature needs.

I hope you all are doing well.
