Site reramp & 2009 recap!

Music LM.C: BOYS & GIRLS

Wow it has been about a month since I last posted. The past month I was authentically BUSY. At the beginning of this month I had 5-10 page papers due in all of my classes and finals just a week ago. Don’t get me wrong; I was not stressed because I do not cram anymore…just busy!

Anyway, I decided it was time for a new layout. First of all, in the middle of October I cut 6 inches of my hair and the layout I had up was with my long hair, so it was annoying looking at it XD Anywho. I also update my profile picture there since the previous picture was really outdated, haha. Man have I visibly matured (or aged :P ) over the past couple of months! Going back to the layout, this layout features the very hot hot HOT Izumi Sano from the manga HANA KIMI! ♥_♥ For more info, click here. ANY COMMENTS AND FEEDBACK ON THIS LAYOUT ARE ALL WELCOMED!

Wow, 2009 went by really fast. It feels like just yesterday when I was applying to colleges and when I thought I was going to major in Childhood Education (thank God I did not). When I think about myself one year ago, I cannot help but think that I would have never have guessed that I would be where and what I am today. The future is quite frightening and mysterious! But that is what makes it fun and exciting ;) Unfortunately, my 2009 New Years Resolutions were all pretty much EPIC FAIL. 9/10 of them involved improving relations with my ex-boyfriend! haha well life moves on! 2010 is a nice number~~~!

MY 2O1O NEW YEARS RESOLUTIONS WOOT WOOT
1. Keep my GPA above a 3.7 (2010 includes 2nd semester and 1st semester of 2nd year!)
(EDIT 12/23 WAHOO ALL MY GRADES FOR 1ST SEMESTER ARE UP! 4.O BABYYYYYY ;D Hard work pays off!)
2. Be there for my family and friends.
3. Quit wasting and asking my parents for money.
4. Try to enjoy socializing with new people (haha).
5. Make use of, organize and expand this site!
6. Maintain my current healthy, laid-back, stress free, happy outlook on life.
7. Make layouts for Poopie-chan and Butt-chan within the next few weeks! (Sorry gaiiz T_T)

Heh. My resolutions for this year are pretty short ^^; I really cannot think of anything more at the moment -_- Anyway, I made a gift for my blog buddies, commenters and visitors ♥



So that is all for now! Feel free to share your resolutions with me or any thoughts you have! I love reading comments! I also got two sites up, yay! click here to view them~

I also got an MSN account so I can communicate with the online community more efficiently, so feel free to add me: chocoripeyes@hotmail.com (tell me who you are though!).

I’m also looking for more blog buddies so if anyone is interested, drop me a comment telling me so~!
I look forward in hearing from you ;D

    I should definitely make my new year’s resolutions soon, and I could definitely steal your #4 :P Good luck on yours!

  4. ashiiya says:

    Haha don’t worry about my layout, take as much time as you need, I don’t mind ^^

    But seriously, nice revamp O.o looking bright and happy :D DD except that the reply section looks off for some reason O.o

    And you got a 3.7??? Luckyyyyy. Haha yeah I found out I got a 3.5, little visual mistake XD

  5. dianne says:

    been busy for the past months too. LOL
    now I envy your theme. haha :P

  6. KIMEH says:

    Nice new years resolutions. I guess, I should think of mine. :(

    Happy Holidays! :-)

  7. Pocci says:

    I finished my chocolate. No more binging. ):

    I don’t watch that much TV, but the TV I watch is interesting. :D

    I hate chocolate with fruit. It’s kind of gross. xD I’m extremely particular when it comes to food. :S

    Chocolate Mousse sounds really good. I haven’t tried it before though xD

    Yuck, eggs. I’m sorry, I don’t share your passion for it! I find them kind of gross I guess xD

    Haha anime :P My friend at school is crazy about it!

    5-10 papers?! That’s plenty!! Gee wiz, how can you finish them all??

    6 inches?! That’s heaps!! My gosh!! I’m not even sure if I can bear to cut that much of my hair :S if I even have that much…haha.

    I forgot all my resolutions by Feb 2009. Sad. I’ve written my new resolutions and I will stick to them!!! They are mainly to de-lazify myself. *ahem FAIL ahem*

  8. Tiffany says:

    Cutting off six inches of hair is great, isn’t it? Haha. I love when I cut off a lot of my hair, and I feel almost lighter. I notice it in the shower when washing my hair, and my hair just stops at a certain point when applying shampoo/conditioner. Hahah.

    I haven’t even thought about new years resolutions. I kind of giggled with “4. Try to enjoy socializing with new people (haha).” that one because I can totally relate. I’ve become kind of like a hermet this year. Been staying in a lot, which is no good. Those are good resolutions that you have listed though, they’re very possible to keep up with. Ahhh, I can’t believe 2010 is right around the corner. Sheesh.

    Anyway, happy holidays! :)

  9. Senyth says:

    WOW. You sound really busy. When does school end there?

    Haha. I love your reason for putting up a new layout. I just cut my hair short too. I was sad, but relieved because my long hair makes me feel hotter than I already do.

    Love your new layout! I don’t read the manga so I didn’t recognize him, but I did watch the JDrama of Hana Kimi. Awww, it was so cute and funny!

    I love your layout archive. Sounds really unique and creative to me. :)

    I always fail at trying to enjoy socializing with new people. I tend to be shy if I don’t know the person, but I open up once I get to know the person. :P I haven’t thought of resolutions yet, but I’ll try to come up with one or two. Haha.

    That is a cute gift! :) I wouldn’t mind being blog buddies with you.

    I will post her link only when she won’t remove the layout or give credit. I hate people like her!

    Happy Holidays! Hope you did a very happy one. :)

  10. Gel says:

    Nice layout! It’s crazy how much i’ve matured (physically and mentally, I believe) in the past months as well! Haha. Looking at my 365, my face changes little by little for some reason O_o

    Ohh New Year’s Resolutions, i’ve never thought of a concrete list yet but definitely one of the items in it would be to save more money!!! Haha.

    Merry Christmas! :)

  11. Joann says:

    Nice new layout is so yellow *O* LMFAO.
    Dang. new years resolutions already. hms. mine are almost the same every year. But I guess it would be to get a 92+ overall average and to pass math with a 85 and above.

  12. Chii says:

    Hiya Sapphire!!!
    happy holidays to you too~!!! And a happy happy new year as well. :D those are great new years resolutions!! i really love how positive they are, good luck! :3

    You have some pretty good News Resolutions. Me, personally I don’t ever make them because I already know that I’ll never follow through but that’s just me.

    I will add you on MSN and I hope we’re still blog buddies BTW.

  15. Steff says:

    Happy holidays.

  16. Kim says:

  19. Luna says:

    NICE NEW SITE LAYOUT! I totally adore your new layout. XD It greatly spells L-O-V-E. And oh, I noticed DGM in your sidebar. That series is so awesome. Even the manga, too! ;) Good luck on the resolutions. Happy new year, Sapphire! :)

  20. Ariel says:

    Happy new year! I love your layout! The colors are so nice :-D And the hearts are just too cute!

    I hope you’ll have a great year in 2010. ;-)

  21. Nagashiko says:

    HAPPY NEW YEAR!

    Nice new layout! But I actually liked the old one more.

    Hopefully 2010 would be an exciting year for all of us. Goodluck on our resolutions! =D

  22. Kristine says:

    Good luck with your resolutions :) Nice layout!

  23. Daniella says:

    I always feel weird looking back at where I was. Where I was January 2009 feels like decades ago! I had a different job, different apartment, different career plan, it seems odd that 12 months can change all that. But change is good, hopefully it will seem just as odd next year.

    Good luck on your resolutions, I always have trouble keeping mine, so I hope this time I can!!

  24. Rinku says:

    Wooo! The new layout looks awesome! I could never design in yellow for some reason but you pulled it off nicely. -is jealous- Yes, I agree 2009 went way too fast. I’m looking forward to this year though, and I hope it’s at least thousand times better. :D Good luck on your resolutions. I gave up on doing any this year because I keep getting disappointed when I can’t get any of them done by year’s-end. Yours seem a bit more realistic than my usual resolutions though, so good luck! =D

  25. Brian says:

    Resolutions are a gimmick. Striving to be better should be basic, yet we need an occasion to mark our goals. And then we fail at them. I can’t shake the idea that that’s the American Way.

    Congrats on the 4.0. I hope you find coursework that continues to stimulate you, because monotony is a GPA demolisher (mine, for instance, has pitfalled to a 3.7 lolz). XD

  26. Shifaa says:

    The moment your site finished loading, no no, while it was loading, I simply said, very slowly, OH MY GOD! This is such a whoa layout! :O totally love it! It’s huge and bright and pretty! Congratulations dear! <3

    Your new year's resolutions sounds really great and not so hard to do, so good luck with them, hope you can achieve each and every one of them! :)
