LV's avatar reminds me of those days when I refused to wear shoes.. xD

I get on well with most races! <3 apart from, surprisingly, freshie Chinese people, who, as 'elfy said, kind of pressurise you to be more Chinese than you are. xD I mean, not that I don't LIKE being Chinese, but sometimes acting it is a bit of a chore. P;

The Gaia logo changed, like, months ago.. o__0;

Ah all of you missed the April Fools joke Gaia played on us! mrgreen When I logged in here yesterday I saw a notice saying that Gaia had been bought out by a company called OMNIDRINK and because of that the databases were merging and the aquarium was down. It got wierder when I saw this hilarious clip of the site's admin Lanzer stating the reasons for the buy-out, but sounding not too happy at all. Then the Gaia logo itself was resplaced by a big blue circle with the words 'OMNIDRINK presents Gaia Online'.

As for why my head's in flames, well as part of the joke you could actually get an item called the OMNIDRINK spray. If you chugged the spray it blows up in your face. You wouldn't be the shitstorm this created in the GD, the ED, the Site Feedback and the Gaia Discussion forums. A lot of people actually thought it was for real. xd

But Chinese ppl are separated as well. Like Niph, "freshies" are different from local Chinese kids (we call them fobs, as in fresh off the boat). I mix best with local asian kids, but that's it. neutral

@ Niphy: I can't find any good shoes to wear that match the colour scheme.
Oh, I think I found one or two, but they were all like 50k and I was like... "Scratch that, I can't be bothered to save that much just to get shoes... It would take me 1 year+"
But i wanted something by my feet and I tried to put the angel imp there, but it was covering my flying heart thing.
Then I moved the flying heart thing but the star bubble was covering it.
How stressful.

@ CBC: I mix well with all asian kids. Our little asian group is mostly people from abroad.
Actually... I think I'm the only one who actually lives in Britain.
ninja
For some reason, all the other asian girls who live in Britain go off with British people.
Maybe I'm just weird.

@ Elfy: O.O I didn't see that. Maybe I logged in after they took it off. We are in different time zones...

@'elfy - Ah, I missed that, yeah. xD

@LV - Welcome to the stressful world of avatar-making.. go to the AT, the people there are lovely (well, usually. Turn up with a crap outfit and they are vicioussss). Have you considered those medical shoes? They're a bit rubbish, but at least they ARE shoes, and they're white. Or the slippers from the Enchanted Book, if you have it P; (actually I can lend it to you if you want). Or the gold genie slippers with white socks? & the white egyptian linen wrap thing will layer under that dress thing. Also add some dashing gentleman's gloves? And a gold promise ring? xD

Easter long weekend! I've got my driving test and hep B vaccination.

Also, how do items in inventories just organised by colours? Do they do that automatically or do you have to do it manually?
PostPosted: Sat Apr 04, 2009 5:31 am


You have to do it manually P; the inven organisation system is still really screwed up, though, so you'll only get it to be almost right, 'cause random items still end up in random places when you click 'save'.. (would post mine but can't fit it in one screenshot & am too lazy to piece it together xD)

Yay for new phones!

I'm getting a new laptop 'cause mine was stolen (have I told you guys?) D; might get a macbook.. maybe.. ninja

Your laptop was stolen? Wow, talk about bad luck there. If you want a new laptop, I'd suggest buying an Intel/AMD Notebook instead. As cool and hip as Macbooks are, they're nowhere near as powerful or as versatile as traditional notebooks, especially the latest ones which are almost as fast desktop PCs. That's my opinion anyway.

        i don't really like macbooks that much.

        when'd it get stolen?

A couple weeks ago, my roommate at uni left the door unlocked while she went out for five min.. Loads of her stuff was nicked too..

Well, macbooks all use intel core duo processors nowadays, and I'm going to get the 13" one cause I can't stand huge laptops, and 2.4ghz process speed / 2G RAM / 250gb hard drive is more than enough for my needs. Besides, macs are not only better looking but less prone to crashing and more secure against viruses etc. And also, OS X Leopard is far superior to Vista (because, y'know, everything is better than crappy Vista. I'd rather buy a machine that ran XP, but nothing does anymore.. xP

See? Niphy does her research. P;
