Looking Ahead

Feb
29

HAPPY LEAP DAY!!!

The reason it’s so hard being friends with old boyfriends is that old feelings resurface — good or bad, it doesn’t really matter. It just becomes awkward. *Note: In case any of you who know me offline start wondering who I’m talking about, I am NOT talking about anyone in particular. I just had a realization.

Everything that’s been happening lately seems so surreal. It feels a bit like everything’s falling into place but not quite — Maybe it’s just me… I’m holding back, as always. But I know for sure that I’m finally looking ahead…moving on, as others might say. Let’s just say that I’m ready for what the future holds for me. :) I had an odd conversation with my mom earlier and she told me to “follow my heart.” Then I got an email from one of my closest friends and she told me the same thing. I found it a bit funny. ;)

“Whoever you are, or whatever it is that you do, when you really want something, it’s because that desire originated in the soul of the universe. It’s your mission on earth. The Soul of the World is nourished by people’s happiness. And also by unhappiness, envy, and jealousy. To realize one’s Personal Legend is a person’s only real obligation. All things are one. And, when you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.”
~The Alchemist, by Paulo Coelho

Learning Styles and Other Troubles

Feb

I finally had a meeting with my academic adviser. I don’t really have any problems in school so it was pretty quick. We just answered questionnaires – ack! I just remembered! I haven’t emailed him my VARK questionnaire results yet.

Okay, I just took the test (again – I forgot to copy the results from the first time I took it):

The VARK Questionnaire Results

    Your scores were:

  • Visual: 8
  • Aural: 7
  • Read/Write: 14
  • Kinesthetic: 13

You have a multimodal (RK) learning preference.

2008 Plans for Midheaven and Celardor

Feb
10

First of all, I want to thank everyone who asked about my dad and prayed for him. I really appreciate it. :love: He’s doing better and the doctor said he can go home on the 12th (Tuesday). To tell you the truth, I’m not looking forward to it. My dad is a terrible patient.

Then there’s this issue with my uncle and my aunt. argh. I want to stay out of it but I ended up as sort of a middleman. haha.

Anyway, I won’t expound on the family stuff because it’s full of drama and unhappy thoughts. I’m determined to start this year off right — absolutely no negativity.

And on that note…

I’ve been incredibly busy. I’ve started the major revamp I promised to do. I’ve finished moving Moonlight Reverie to the main site — well, most of it. I’ve dropped most of the content. I probably won’t add visitor content anymore (that will be for Celardor). Please let me know what you think! { VISIT THE MIDHEAVEN COLLECTIVE }

I’m going to revamp ARDENT, my fanlisting collective next. I’ll probably start with the collective then move on to the fanlistings with temporary layouts. I might adopt out or close some fanlistings. We’ll see. BTW, Kryz has decided to let me adopt The Wedding Planner Fanlisting. The new layout is up but I’m still waiting for her to send me the MySQL files so I can set it up. Watch out for that! In the meantime, let me know what you think about the layout.

EDIT: 6:30 pm — I’ve finished revamping ARDENT! :artistic:

A Cure for Lack of Miracles

Feb

There’s so much going on…

I can’t think straight.

My dad is in critical condition. He’s been in the ICU since Wednesday. We don’t know if he’ll be able to recover this time. They say it’ll take a miracle.

Please help us pray for him…
