Welcome to my new Classroom!

I am getting to know Wordpress. I can’t change the template as much as I thought I could, like change the fonts and colors. The template I chose has everything I like, except the brown background. Oh well… no big deal. There is another one, green with a girl on top, really nice as well, but I can’t stand the arial font so… just too bad. Let me know what you think!

White Shit.
2007-03-07 20:19:02
Thanks to mother nature, today Montreal is getting a shitload of snow. I heard that expression somewhere, “shitload” and I like using it, although I am not sure why it was used in the first place. I understand that when we say “shitload” we in fact want to image the proportion to a big amount. Let me see with a couple of online dictionaries…  This one isn’t so help full… Ok that will do…  So it DOES refer to a large amount of… whatever. OK Now I am sure… lol You English people and your weird expressions! Anyhow, about a foot of snow in total for the day. Shawn did a special Episode of the Snow day on his blog, go check it out. In all of that, I am off to Syracuse NY to play my tuba. Yeah! Oh… and… I   L-O-V-E   Wordpress! The import from blogger was a piece of cake, you just… press a button… et voila! and although they wrote in the FAQs that my images uploaded in my blogger posts wouldn’t come ...

So. The import from blogger is complete. I like Wordpress a lot, although I don’t understand everything yet, I am sure I will be able to personalise the template once I buy the CSS code for it. All I want it to change the fonts really. Maybe the brown background too. I haven’t figured out how to post my Paypal donation button yet, so if someone can help me with that I’d appreciated it! Now, I need to get it out there. I changed most of my links to websites I remembered, but I need to get my pagerank back up fast. Payperpost won’t let my submit a second blog until I have 10 post approved, and I have 9 since the last one was rejected. That one is a frustrating story really since I had a page rank of 4, I submitted a post worth 20$, and it took them 9 days to even look at it, and during that 9 days my pagerank went down to a 3, so they rejected it. *sigh* Now that I have imported to Wordpress, I don’t really want to post anything on my blogger one as I wis...

Hey you people of the blogosphere! I need your help!
2007-03-07 20:19:02
Guys, I am thinking about importing my blog from Blog ger to Wordpress. They seem to have better themes and options for my blog, but I am not sure yet, since I am not a blogger pro or anything. So I need to know, from your experience, what is better: Blogger or Wordpress ? I will eventually buy my domain name too… Comment away, I need your opinions!

Yeah, yeah, lame title, no inspiration. lol So the weekend will be pretty cool, with my friend the Evil Sara coming up from NY city. I am glad she is coming over to Montreal before her big move to California. Lucky her. I have never been to California. I really have to make that trip some day. My always so creative boyfriend Shawn is starting a videoblog, you can see on yesterday’s post a youtube video, go check it out, it’s pretty good and you get to see a little of my apartment, and my cat Bosco in full action. Really, go check it out, you will find out what I mean by “full action”. Hint: I am being very sarcastic. My new furniture is awesome. My apartment is looking more and more like I want it to look. Of course, when it will be the closest to perfect, I will have the opportunity to move in a bigger place, and I will have to start my whole “fell good in your home” project all over. Typical, right? Why to I spend so much money on this apartment...

Love, Food and money.

Happy Valentine’s day! Shawn and I went to L’Academie restaurant: It’s a very nice restaurant, I absolutely love going there! Conclusion, we had great food and a great time! ———- It’s stopped snowing this morning, so the temperature went back down to -25F with a crazy wind blowing. Awful. I hate it. ———- I started labeling my older posts. It’s long and the process really sucks, blogger needs to find a better way to manage the posts. I deleted about 10 posts so far, useless things like “do you like my blog colors today”… I have about 260 posts so I am still not done labeling! It will be easier for readers to read my stuff by choosing in the “themes” section. ———- You will see a bit more sponsored post on here. These earn me from US $10 and more each so I need to do this. I will try to always choose adds that you guys can actually use. This process is helping Shawn...

Communication is Key!
2007-03-07 20:19:02
First, a small town here is getting to know immigrants: Herouxville put together a “declaration” that basically says to every immigrants moving there that they will have to respect the Quebec culture, and that’s it. They won’t accommodate any minority. Meaning, they will serve pork, they will sing Christmas songs in school, they will not separate men and women times for the public pool and such… …But Drouin said the declaration, which was posted on the town?s website and sent to the provincial and federal immigration ministers, is the result of a number of recent culture clashes across the country.-In Montreal, a dispute erupted after the windows of a gym were obscured to block the view of exercising women from the Hasidic Jewish synagogue across the street and swimming pools have been asked for gender-specific swim times to accommodate religious groups.-Men were banned from prenatal classes at one Montreal community centre to accommodate Muslim, ...

Having a life isn?t easy.

First this: hehehe Second, I am so busy it’s hardly believable. I don’t actually do much, and I don’t seem to have time to do anything! If I get home around 6 ish, go to the gym for an hour, come back, eat, Shawn time, shower and… it’s already time for bed! I want to paint so bad lately. But I paint better at night when it’s dead quiet and it feels like I am the only one awake in the world. I finished painting my bathroom the other night, or should I say morning, at 5am. When I start something, I finish it, and I will make sure my lines are straight, even if it means using a one inch pro brush to fix it. My lines are as straight as the walls now at least…. Which actually means they are not so straight… haha I like it better now anyway, I’ll take a picture soon, promise *sigh* I’ll find time somehow for more painting (on a canvas now of course). I just received my new furniture today, Shawn and I will finall...
