It's been a strange day. I'm not much of an internet and computer person, but I do try sometimes. I wish I could buy a fairy to help me with all these problems that's building up. Problem one is that I don't understand Photoshop, new windows, messenger and nowadays, even Word is starting to become too complicated for me. If I had a fairy I could stick her in a box and take her out whenever I got lost in the world and labyrinth of gigabytes and short-commandos, and she'd draw me a map or poke it until it got simple enough for me to understand. Don't get me wrong, most things on these programmes are super useful, I just don't get why they have to be so darn hard to activate. Is it that difficult to create something that actually says; click here to create 3D text? Yes? Fine! Then I want my fairy, too.
Another thing that happened today. A strange thing. My belief in people's goodness just fell down about five steps on my imaginary ladder of respect. But first, let me explain something. I'm the sort of embarrassed, sad person who fears the ridicule of others, which I'm fairly sure I'd get more of if everyone knew me as well as I know myself (thankfully nobody will either). Which is why some of my interests have been vaguely presented here because, anybody can read this, I'm sure. Nobody's interested though, that too I'm sure of hahaha. But this is the time to be honest and become hardcore, (where else can I be? and who knows with baby steps maybe one day I'll have a presentation about all of my strange interests...) so I shall change my profile today.
I shall write about anything that I like, no matter how odd. And I shall delete all comments from people who don't like them. Among my strange interests are the Japanese band called 嵐 and various Japanese shows like HeyHeyHey, utaban etc. I usually have about a month were I find stuff to watch and then spend half a year watching it so I'm not always up to date. But today I found out something most people who share this interest with me found out this summer. Online streaming has gone real bad. So bad, that some awesome people are pulling back from publishing things. Despite everything they risk and sacrifice they've found that a lot of people don't respect their work and so they've pulled back. Which is why I'm going into Hardcore today. I'm going to be a bit more active on the net (despite being technically (?) challenged), comment more, be a part of a community that I hope is out there (that is people who admire the same people I admire, be it celebrities or awesome people who knows a lot, like Japanese language and culture or does awesome things on the net.
I'm going to become a lot more active. Watch out for the chaos that shall ensue as I try to crack the code that is computers. Now is the time to put in some effort.
For now, here's the quote of the day:
"Although the world is full of suffering, it is full also of the overcoming of it. My optimism, then, does not rest on the absence of evil, but on a glad belief in the preponderance of good and a willing effort always to cooperate with the good, that it may prevail."
Words of the awesome Helen Keller
