a little change

ive made couple of changes to this template, as opposed to scrapping and changing to a new template altogether. the other template i was thinking of implimenting was completely dark blue, but i kinda favored the difference in tone and the lighter touch of the current template.

as it can be obviously seen, i removed my tag board. its for couple of reasons, one big reason being this will prevent any other regular anonymous users to just leave some random tags, and if needed, visitors can leave me messages at the end of each post. most people have blogger accounts, so they should have no problem leaving me messages there, and even if they dont, they're still able to leave me messages there anyway. plus it saves everyone the trouble whenever tag boards are down, which kinda screws up the whole page. and if anyone needs me, isnt there always email? im checking my email all the time, so if you mail me at gtg007w[at]gatech[dot]edu, its all fine.

i also added a sports section which i should be updating every now and then, for now, its just the basic teams, newcastle, GT basketball and football. i dont have any plans to increase the number of teams, as handling 3 is a task enough.

i guess im set with the simplicity of the current template without having the need to add extragavant features.

i need to do a couple of things in few days time, namely compiling all my typed reports and works of my first semester and put it up as a record, erasing all unnecessary tracks on my ipod, watch whatever movies i have in my laptop. i bought 'Myst' yesterday, it was on sale for 20 bucks, and it also included riven and myst iii, i thought it was a good deal, and since i havent played much video game for a while, i thought, why not some visually and mentally stimulating game? its been pretty great so far, but i get really frustrated when i get stuck at solving some clues at times, but that's the beauty of the game really.

and since we also got a router, im able to roam about my house freely with my powerbook and surf whenever wherever. while hasib was on his desktop, we had to unplug the ethernet cable every now and then to surf the net or whatever, but that solves the problem now. that was for 70 bucks, but with a rebate of 50 bucks which i need to send, so technically, a reliable router for 20 bucks. so i got 3 games and a router for 40 bucks. really good deal.

and the georgia tech football team spanked the hell out of syracuse last night, 51-14 to win the champs sport bowl, formerly known as the florida citrus bowl, to make it 8 bowl appearance in a row, and probably the best consecutive bowl record around too. if only we could be ranked, play better and play in better bowls. hopefully that happens, ball is only a sophomore and calvin johnson is still a freshman, it might look pretty good.

alright, off for dinner, and make couple more changes to the codes of the template later on.
