‘Allo. Exams are now over and I’ve been just chilling, not doing too much.
Things I’m doing/planning to do:
- Finish Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell Susanna Clarke. I’m currently in 56 pages into the book, with about 950 pages left and it’s been a delight to read! A fantasy book with a touch of humour, very interestingly written without being convoluted and a clever world set in 1807 England where magic exists. It’s been so long it feels, since I’ve read a book for enjoyment rather than for university.
- Finish Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, read by Stephen Fry. Good time to be knitting while listening.
- Finish Neverwinter Nights 2. :D
- Play Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Trials and Tribulation.
- Watch a bunch of anime I downloaded, namely Code Geass, Blood+ and NANA
- Pick up crocheting/knitting again… though bah, it’s going to be the middle of summer so it’ll probably be little things.
- Do something about my sites. =_=
- Maybe meet up with Amanda when she visits for a holiday?
- HAVE FUN! WHOOOOO!
Oh yeah. And finding a job.
And now for the tidbit of the day, “understanding web design”. I’m not a design student, but hey I like reading things relating to the internets and I had a high opinion of a lot of the articles offered by A List Apart (and still do for many of their practical guides to tweaking CSS and layouts). However, their article on understanding web design was incredibly disappointing in how general and vague it is. This thread on metafilter is hilarious and insightful in pointing out the article’s problems, especially this breakdown.
Basically it seems to be saying, good designs are both functional yet distinctive. ORLY???? -_-
