It’s a Masquerade!

// October 20th, 2009 // Music, Website

After hours of labour work (not really), I’ve finally successfully put up a new theme. And with that, come brand new smileys! :lol: These are definitely not my favourite set of smileys, but eh, they will do for now. Besides, I have yet to find cute ones. :P

The theme was quite easy to install and tweak, although the “italic” and “bold” visuals wouldn’t show up on the posts automatically like they should be, which bumped me because I rely on them both for blogging. So I took matters to my hands and edited the stylesheet manually using the HTML “font-weight” and “font-style” codes. Haha. :lol: Everything looks much better now!

Moving on, I managed to buy the new album yesterday. And to be honest, I’m not really impressed. I think there are only like, 4-5 songs that I really, really like, and they are the only ones that I tend to put on repeat. “Straight Through My Heart” is one of them – I fell in love with this song the first time I heard it, though I still don’t get the video? I’m not really good in actually reviewing an album, but all in all, I wish there would be more awesome songs in This Is Us. :( But then again, it’s probably just me. Perhaps my expectations were too high? :confused:

I think those are all. Another boring entry, I know. But like I said, I am trying to update more often. ;) I’m going to go and have This Is Us another listen, especially of the other songs. Who knows, I might grow to like the album after all.

Have a great week, everyone!

    Pretty theme! I suck when it comes to finding good themes. It just seems NOTHING is right for me :( I love this purple though!!

    I don’t buu albums anymore unless it’s Janis Joplin, Bob Dylan, The Beatles, etc. I find that albums these days are jokes – I haven’t come across one single album worth the money. Albums don’t have that substance it did like back in the 60s where almost every song on a record was brilliant. It’s sad :(

    To be honest, I read your post because of the title, and the song immediately got stuck in my head haha. I feel the exact same way about the album which is sad. But Masquerade is my favorite on the album.

    I love the theme! I purchased 5 themes from WooThemes over the summer and I am addicted to them! :)

    I, too, was disappointed with the album. I think I like 4 or 5 and my favorite didn’t even make the album. They really need to just retire because they are making me not want to admit to being a fan anymore!

    Your new digs look nice :)
