Sorry for abandoning you all!

Posted by Bernadet

Hey y`all, I`m sorry for abandoning you for so long! Not that you actually missed me, but I apologize anyway *g*

Today is the very last day of my internship! It`s sooooo awesome I`m nearly freeee! I also managed to discovered that next semester I`ll be taking a different theme than I thought I was taking. I thought I was taking IT service management but I managed to look at the wrong column of the table and I`m actually taking Database development. The IT service management is in my third semester. I`m such a loser *g* This might also mean that I`ll have to get my hands on that book I was missing as soon as possible…but maybe not. I need only three books for database development so I hope that I have those three. I only missed one ^_^

Also, sister managed to win two tickets for holiday on ice. So we`re going there for free now…yaaay. It`s be cold though ><

And sister can make her own skirts! I worship her for it, I`m a disaster when it comes to sewing and she makes gorgeous skirts! I`m working on a bright red polka-dotted skirt with a layer of white tulle underneath though. Once day, it shall be done!

Whooooo long weekend!

Posted by Bernadet

I just made a deal with my boss. He wanted me to come work next Wednesday to help the new intern found his way around the website and all the other things I`d been dealing with for the last ten weeks. But next week, my internship is supposed to be over already so we decided to make a little deal that if I came next Wednesday I`d be allowed to take off one day this week.

So I decided to take the Friday off and give myself a long weekend. I`m already looking forward to it! This Sunday I`ll be going to a Gothic and fantasy convention with my sister and dad and I`m really looking forward to it since I`ll be able to dress up without people thinking I`m an idiot. I might even be able to wear my pretty elf ears for once! I <3 my elf ears.

Sister is at the hospital in Utrecht now, trying to claim the job. I`m nervous for her…I so hope she`ll get the job! It would be awesome to live in Utrecht and I`ll be very jealous of her…I`ll probably be visiting her each and every weekend *g* Also, we`d have a convenient place to sleep at the Elf Fantasy Fair.

Evil Evaluation

Posted by Bernadet

Hello you guys! I`m back with more of my random ranting…dumdedum. This time I`m wondering why my blog main page loads super fast but all other posts and pages load with a speed lower than a slug`s speed. I`ve tried installing a cache plugin to speed things up but it didn`t really work. And I tried a plugin called phpspeedy but that messed up my scripts. So I don`t know how to speed things up here….if you have any tips please comment!

Please comment anyway, as we`ve been getting way too few comments lately. Where have my faithful plaza comment spammers gone?!

I`m currently at my internship again and I should be working (as always) but I just can`t force myself to do so…the interwebz is calling to me! After my internship I have a evaluation conversation at my work where they`ll discuss how I`ve been working the last six months. They already promised me I`d get another contract for a year yet they still want to have conversations like this. I`m not looking forward to it…I wouldn`t be surprised if all they did was tell you the bad stuff you`ve done the past six months. Managers are evil like that *sighs*

I`m now trying to think of something to talk about but all I want to rant about has something to do with stuff I`ve been going through with a creepy guy on the plaza lately. I`ll bother one of you guys on IM about it later.

I also noticed the traffic to this site seems to be increasing. I`ve been doing some SEO things lately so apparently they seem to be working. I`ve also noticed that though I have deleted all pages from the old kawaiipixel.com they`re still being indexed by google. So I now set a redirect on all those non existent pages to avoid scaring people off with the evil 404 error. Maybe that causes the extra trafic *ponders* Anyway, thank you guys for visiting us. We greatly appreciate it (Though we`d appreciate it even more if you left comments) :P

More digital art!

Posted by Bernadet

I have finally managed to upload all the new digital art pieces I have made over the last few weeks. All the ones with the orange/red background on the digital art page are new ones. My personal favourite is the following piece:

sunnew More digital art!

I hate to be arrogant about my own stuff but that one makes me go oooooh each time I look at it *grins*

I`m at my internship again right now and I`m supposed to be working but the boss is on a holiday so frankly, I`ve been slacking. I`ve been busy checking my mail, doing random stuff and pm-ing with Lauren for pretty much the entire day. All the work I got done is one paragraph for my internship report and add a few download buttons to the website. *whistles* I`ll try making up for it tomorrow…

I have to pick up the phone today, which is something I seriously despise. I swear I`ve got like a phone-phobia! If those exist I have them!

Also, google analytics gave us the following table:

Nr./Zoekopdracht/Positie

1/fangtasia costume/7

2/striped corset/8

3/kawaii pixel/4

4/small corset/8

5/fangtasia/11

6/site: www.kawaiipixel.com/1

7/xxx elf/10

8/kawaiipixel/1

9/www.kawaiipixel.com/1

10/gay elf costume/4

Which means that we`re number 11 on the sites found for Fangtasia. Which makes us the 11th most awesome site in the world *grins* The fact that we`re the fourth site found when googling gay elf costume….now that, I find a bit disturbing….

Busy, Busy, Busy!

Posted by Bernadet

Hey everyone! Remember the corset I showed you? OFCOURSE YOU DO I SHOWED IT TO YOU A DAY AGO!!! Err..yes, well that pretty dark red underbust velvet corset which I wanted to order no longer has the wanted to order status but the have ordered status. WHOOOO…

It`ll be delivered to me within 4-8 days (or so the site says, I`m not buying it though…it`ll probably take at least three weeks) so I`ll be able to show how it looks for real in a few weeks. YAY

Also, as you might have noticed some things have changed about the site. My twitter, which I never use but who cares, now gets updated whenever I add a new post. Some ads have been added to see if we can make some money out of this random blog, if not I`ll delete them again. Clicking the authors name will now lead to a profile page of the author too, pretty useless but I was bored so yeah…

Anyway, I`m thinking of making my own layout. Because of my lack of spare time I took a pre-made layout for this one but it annoys me every day that I didn`t make it myself, so I`m considering to sacrifice the bits of spare time that I have to make my own…but I`m not sure what the layout should look like yet. Obviously, it should be random and colourful though…
