When the rainy days are dying
Gotta keep on, keep on trying
All the bees and birds are flying (ahh ahh ahh)
Never let go, gotta hold on in
Non-stop til the break of dawnin
Keep on movin dont stop rockin (ahh ahh ahh)

Five - Keep on Movin'


So after hours upon hours of slogging away at the computer and burning my retinas by scanning bits of code to look for errors that I couldn't possibly have made, but Flash says I did an error, but when I look all I can see is black, white and blue, in a jumble of incomprehensible language, such as :


and pixel alignments (It's only 0.5 pixels off damnit! Why won't you align?!), I'm finally done with my web design assignment. Yay!

Of course, during the time I was working on it, and the time leading up to the deadline, Adobe Flash decides to play peek-a-boo with me, and suddenly disappears after the magic rainbow ball makes a cameo appearance.

In case you're wondering what the hell a magic rainbow ball looks like, here's an illustration:

I've been taxing and pushing my computer too much these days, running heavy programs at the same time, and during the past week, it was the combination of the programs mentioned in the previous post : [ Photoshop + Illustr... ah let me just show you what I mean.


And this kept on happening every day and night, I toss and turn and keep stressing my mind, I look for peace but see I don't attain, what I need for keeps this silly game we play. Ooops, burst into song there for a bit.

Anyway, as you can see from the beautifully crafted equation above (which was done in Adobe Photoshop with the aid of a tablet and quite an outstanding amount of boredom), I was under quite a bit of stress, and I wish I can say that it was brought upon me by none other than myself, for procrastination was the key in my life this semester, but that is not the case.

1. I'm no good at AS3
2. AS3 is complicated
3. I'm no good at AS3

Sure, graphics, text, drawings and whatnot, I can get by. Even a little video, sound, or image editing I can try and do. But AS3 is such a bitch to work with, especially since I have little to no idea as to how the damn thing works, and had to resort to video tutorials (which were actually very helpful, and some of them were pretty funny too) and combing obscure forums for bits of code to make a scroll bar, well, scroll.

It was an interesting experience, I guess, in the end. I learnt how to code, how to scroll, how to button, and how to curse in French.

On a side note, the weather has taken a turn for the cold, wet and windy. It's very windy, it's very cold, and to top it all off, it's very raining too.

I want a Jumbo Mocha. Damn.
