started actually putting up the emo portal today after i spent ages messing around with photo editing and layouts and the like :0 really liking how its turning out so far, i used lots of brushes from salvaged.nu which i will make sure to credit back like the responsible internet user i aspire to be when the page has more stuff on it. i am enjoying making it so much and have lots of plans for different pages ^^ im hoping its going to be a combo between a wiki for emo but also have lots of my own takes and reccomendations as well :p the photos i used for the banner are from here and are of geoff and tom from thursday. idk if thursday would hate being called emo but thats something i will discuss on the page LOL hope u guys r well and not too cold wherever u are :) life has been stressful af lately but i did play the first lucius with my friend and that was so much fun so its not all bad. in other news i think i accidentally manifested the mcr comeback as a week before the announcement i was listening to them like crazy. (if u guys are going to the shows have a crazy time and if u didn't get tickets pls dont be sad they were so freaking expensive, if they do tour europe they better be cheaper and everyone who couldnt go in the us can go) i am really back in my mcr era which is honestly great i love good music! i got some thursday CDs as well which is very exiciting - i will take pictures of those at a later date if anyone is interested LMAO. anyway go listen to bulletproof heart right now and have a dance party or don't LOL

So today the Jay Chou shrine is finally taking form! yay! I've been working on the graphics for a while now so it feels good to finally get it on the site ~~ I was super super inspired by old Xanga layouts and the like for this one (made me consider maybe changing up the design of my old pages perhaps but idk how i feel about it - some of them are like ancient relics at this point!) I enjoyed designing it way more that I thought .. all graphic design should have shiny gradients and drop shadows,,,

Helloooo!! Big life update news - I graduated from college!! I cannot believe I started this site before I had even enrolled - what the frick is time anyway! So now I consequently have lots of free time lounging around my parents place feeling nostalgic with not a lot else to do hehe. I've been making plans for an album review page for a couple months now but since I fell off the coding bandwagon like 2 years ago it's probs gonna take me some sweet time. In other site news however, I've been crawling around gifcities trying to get a suitible collection of Jay Chou fansite gifs so that I can make a little shrine which I'll get done soon I think. In other life news... I SAW THURSDAY. LIVE. IN PERSON. I was like 2m away from Geoff Ricklys face and I had the most amaze time eva getting smushed to Understanding in a Car Crash. Oh BTW I highly reccomend watching a live performance of Paris in Flames on YouTube - like any of them. It may possibly be the best live song of all time ever and the videos are very good too. Ooh I finally have gotten round to reading Midnight Sun by Stephanie Meyer it is very good but such a pain to lug around the place. I was reading it outside earlier and my actual wrist was hurting LOL. I promise I won't leave it this long again (says someone who really can't be trusted) I hope everyone reading this is doing okay and has a lovely July :-)

Hi!!!! Long time no update LOL I really wanted to come on here and say thank you so so much for the lovely guestbook messages, I do check them often even if I am in a period of website hiatus :) (especially thank you to the person who said they liked my emo music rants haha!) I always seem to come back to neocities no matter how long I leave it and I feel welcomed each time I return, even if I don't belong to a community or anything I'm so grateful to the people who I've spoken to on here since I joined in 2019 (WTF 2019!!!). I alsooo wanted to just say thank you to the creators of the YesterWeb community which shut down earlier this year, I'm not exactly sure how to contact anyone who had a part in it since I stopped being active over a year ago! Buttt I just wanted to say thank you sm to everyone who worked to create a space which passionate webmasters such as myself could feel welcomed (I know the community esp the discord had a lot of ups and downs but I am so grateful to have been able to be a part of a space like that from the get go ^.^) I'm not sure whether to say expect updates or anything because offline life is very busy (adulting ew) but I haven't completely forgotten about neocities LOL!!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
15.10.22 - 01:28AM
New banners added to the buddy page - broken ones removed or fixed, some more infomation added to the Thursday shrine. I made this page rofl.
I can't believe it's been so long since I updated but I really felt like I wanted to which is much much nicer than forcing it. I have many uni assignments so expect progress to be slow but I really feel like working on the site again- almost like when I first created it. I think my goals are clearer now, I got a bit bogged down by neocities discorse and I forgot that my site was supposed to make me feel happy and at ease but I like to think i've matured a bit.
In other news I've been tumblering ALOT and eating copious quantities of breakfast biscuits, I've also finally accepted my love for Taylor Swift after years of believing I was too cool (I am not and have never been, if anything she's too cool for me.). Right this very moment I am listening to Owen's The Avalanche album - Mike Kinsella needs to be stopped like no one should be able to get away with music this good,,,(updating the update i added the album in lol 01:57AM) ANYwHOO you have now recivied a 2 in 1 deal; life and site update.
Thanks for sticking around :-)
