Spam, you suck. Uncle, you rock!

I just spent the last 2 hours deleting over 700 spam comments I have in my gallery of my AJ fansite, as well as browsing through the Coppermine Support Forum to try and find the solution to stop those stupid comments. Good news: I found the solution! Bad news: I am exhausted.

What a great way to start my 2-month semester holiday after a 3-week long exam period. Boo.

In lighter news, though, my friends and I are heading out on a road trip to KL this Monday. Everything is looking good, especially since we don’t have to pay for the hotel we’re staying at for 4 days! You see, my (incredibly rich) uncle owns the four-star hotel in KL – Royale Bintang Damansara – and so, I quote, in account of me, we wouldn’t have to pay a single cent for our stay!

I’m incredibly excited. We might also get a free Limo ride from the hotel to Sunway Lagoon. It’s been ages since I last went to such an awesome theme park. I’ll be sure to do a complete pic spam and post pictures here when I get back. Ah, I can’t wait to get into the jacuzzi free-of-charge.

Well, I’d better get back to uploading the many, many files I have for the gallery; AMF.net has not been updated in 2 months. Eek!

4 down, 4 more to go.

I have only 4 more papers to go before holidays! My next paper will be this Friday and my last paper will be on March 28th. I definitely cannot wait for everything to just end.

My first year in University had been fine, I guess (and I cannot wait for my second year to start). A truckload of (good and bad) unexpected things happen. I hate that I had to go through some of them, but I guess that’s just how life works. Plus, since the first year started, I realize that I can never have actual time for running my websites. Which is bad bad, obviously. A good example: my AJ fansite. That baby is in need of a total revamp and UPDATE.

Sometimes I feel that I should just forget about this whole fansite thing since I’m just too busy with Uni, but at the same time, I cannot deny the fact that it’s actually fun. I love designing layouts (although sometimes it can take me forever and a day), coding them, uploading files with ftp, update and whatnot. Running a fansite is definitely hard work, but at the end of the day, I do enjoy every single second of it.

Anyway, I really should get back to my books so that I don’t have to burn the midnight oil to get everything covered.

P/S: I finally got The Sims 2 (with its full expansion packs) installed on this new laptop of mine! All thanks to the boyfriend, hee. Now if only I can get through the exams faster. Sigh. I want to play!

A Belated Birthday.

I turned 20 on February 25. Time does fly pretty fast. It seems that it was only yesterday that I was receiving Barbie dolls and playhouses as presents. My 20th birthday was okay, I guess. My room mates surprised me with a party exactly at midnight, and my boyfriend took me out for a celebration at McDonalds. Haha. It’s too bad that I couldn’t celebrate it with my family, though. Oh, how I wish the exams were not just around the corner then and that I could drive home to my Mum and Dad.

My birthdays have always been about small surprise parties, minor celebrations with my family or the boyfriend. Birthdays for me have always been simple. Yet memorable. Though, receiving presents have always been my favourite part. Hehe. My friends bought me a gigantic teddy bear, which is currently comfortably seated on my bed, lol. And I received two watches this year; my boyfriend surprised me with a watch that I have been wanting to purchase since forever, and my aunt gave me a Guess, which actually cost over 700 bucks. I’ve never worn something on my wrist that costs that much. Eek!

My second semester is ending soon, in which I will be enjoying a 2-month break until early June. Yay! I can’t wait to drive home and spend some quality time with my family and boyfriend. It’s been ages since we last sat and just talked, talked and talked. I missed that.

Any upcoming holidays for you?
