Diary

hello! another small site update
the photos page has been renamed 'Art' and will now include any and all art i make, rather than just photos! (and i managed to make a teabag icon for it without the font by copying letters from the other icons lol it was very scuffed)
currently in the process of adding some drawings and writing to it.
that's all for today :)

hi! small site update today :)
the 'pics' page has been repurposed (and also renamed 'photos', but the sidebar icon still says 'pics' because i frankly have no clue what font i used in those icons and can't be bothered to find out and make a new one lmao), from a collection of pictures of miscellaneous things in my life, to a collection of photos i've taken and edited as a very amateur photography hobbyist.
the old page isn't deleted, it's just not linked to anywhere on the site anymore.
i've noticed some things are broken, like the 88x31 banners at the bottom of this page and some of the pictures in the cats shrine. to be honest i'm not sure if i can be bothered fixing it lol, maybe i will at some point, but regardless i am aware of the issue
but anyway, i'm doing good. i finally have a job (math tutoring didn't work out, i'm just working a low wage job at a cafe) and i'm going to sign up for uni soon. i'll probably mostly be saving for that over the next few months, but maybe if i get lucky i'll have enough left over to travel a bit before i start uni, who knows :P
hope you're all doing well! i can't promise any more updates in the near future but these random strokes of motivation are impossible to predict so keep an eye out i suppose ;)

soooo.. hi! it's been a good year or two since i updated this site. i sort of just moved on. i don't wanna say i'm 'back' now, i might very well disappear again after this little update, but idk, i felt an urge to play around with my site again today :P
there's a few changes i want to make. i'm a bit uncomfortable with the harry potter references on this site after JKR's whole fiasco, might take those down. i also might delete this page because i don't really ever feel like putting in any entries. i have a couple ideas for shrines - but i can't promise i'll have the energy to make them. we'll see! i played Hypnospace Outlaw and now my passion for the retro web is rekindled haha
otherwise, i've been doing alright. things are chaotic here (israel) right now but my area's fairly safe, i'm anxious and a bit scared but getting through it. since the last update i have started uni, quit uni, gotten an exemption from mandatory military service (!!!!), nearly turned 20 (bday's in less than two weeks!), and well, not much else. i'm planning to start saving up money, hopefully by doing math tutoring, and in a few months or a year i'll hopefully start uni again (and stick around this time - circumstances were complicated the first time around lol). i wanna study math or maybe astrophysics :)
i've been checking up on the guestbook occasionally and the sweet messages always make my day. to Jamie the 'elder millennial' who found my site soothing - i saw your comment yesterday and it made my whole week :D thank you to everyone who's left comments!
until next time :)

saturday, 30 april, EXTREMELY late night
i had lunch with some extended family on my dad's side today, and it was very fun! it was mostly full of "technically related to me but we're basically strangers"-type relatives, so i expected to be a bit awkward as i often am at family events, but i'm proud of myself because i actually did really well at being social and friendly! i talked about life stuff with one cousin, joked around with some of the others, played with my toddler cousin and with their dog, and we all played some songs together - i frankly killed it on the hand drums if i say so myself lmao
also, it's 4am lol, i stayed up ridiculously late reading cute harry potter fanfics... this is like the third consecutive night this has happened, i need help
i'm going to shower and sleep now, but rest assured i am working on that majora's mask shrine! i've got some of the layout planned and some plans for what content i'll put there. it'll be great!
saturday, 23 april, late night
so erm, i've got a civics exam tomorrow :P i've gone over all the material, but all i really did was read the textbook lol, this subject is too damn exhausting to actually do practice questions
i've actually been finding civics pretty interesting and i wanna learn more about it, but school frames it in a very memorisation-heavy way and i just don't have the energy for it :(
to follow up what i said in my last entry about my beard - i ended up trimming back down to stubble length :) the longer beard looked nice but the neat trimmed look is just my thing man
website-wise, my plans for the near future are a hebrew translation for the site, and a shrine for majora's mask - one of my favourite games ever! i've been replaying it to death recently lol
i'm gonna get ready to sleep :) have a good rest of your day everybody
wednesday, 14/technically 15 april, late night
it's 2:30 at night lmao, i should really sort out my sleeping schedule
i'm basically done with covid now, got nothing but a runny nose :D and it's my dad's birthday tomorrow! or technically today i suppose :P i made him a cute little card/fake letter thingy full of our injokes
i've been thinking about trying other styles with my beard. i'll have to shave it off in about a year when i go to the military, so i'm thinking in the meantime i should try whatever i can with it
right now it's just a very short stubble-ish beard. i'm thinking of letting it grow out a bit - i'll still trim it, just at a bigger length, so hopefully it'll keep its shape but stand out more. i'll let y'all know how it goes!
i should really get to sleep lol, peace out
tuesday, 12 april, afternoon
so i tested positive for covid yesterday... fun times! i'm sneezing and coughing a lot, and my head hurts like hell, plus i'm gonna miss passover dinner because of the quarantine :P it's getting better though, i took a painkiller for my headache and my sneezing and coughing have already gone way down! plus, the quarantine gives me lots of time to work on this site :>
on a more postive note, my brothers just made an excellent peanut butter pie :D (image below!)
i think i'm gonna add a page for pictures of my cats, my cooking, etc, and then maybe i'll apply to join the yesterweb ring :o and then i'll be done with the website for the day
