o_O memory lapse! Lanikai cont.
i started that blog entry because i was going to talk about lanikai! i hardly mentioned it! as soon as i viewed it i realised i had forgotten what i was going to blog about. here is the layout i made for it. everyone says the apple looks out of place. i think so too in a way. but i don't know what to put there, it seems right to have some sort of theme, i do like the picture, the colors match a little bit, in a way, not totally, and i wish i could put something there which i made myself so the layout would be 100% mine, but i don't have the hand for drawing on computer. my scanner doesn't work. bloody annoying. its going to be a similar style of layout to black quill, with different navigation. i still feel kind of guilty for not HTMLing the foxfire layout, but i've never done sidescrolling so i didn't really know where to start. fine. excuses. ^^;; i know i try to trick myself all the time. its true but its not valid.
another thing about lanikai, i have this symbol next to the word, consisting of the pentacle and the aries symbol. the near invisible arrow going from the top point to the bottom right symbolises fire. thats why its there. its to represent me being a dragon. and the aries is for me being an aries. i don't want to use color symbolism because it won't always match my layouts. problem? the pentacle is used to symbolise a lot of things but the most common one is as the symbol of withcraft/wiccan/pagan. my parents would probably give me a lecture about it if they saw it. its a nice symbol, it looks nice, its simple. there's more than one meaning but people assume. it really bugs me. debbie assumed. i'm meant to be christian. which means anti pagan apparently. i don't know. people say tammy's books are wiccan. alanna does magic which makes her a witch. then a lot of the books i read wiccan/pagan or something. it makes harry potter pagan. it makes wheel of time pagan. it makes a large amount of good books pagan. thats just stupid. i love those books. lots of CHRISTIANS love those books. so why should magic be a symbolism of wiccan/pagan religions? why does the pentacle have to symbolise that? i think magic is cool. so its not real. i still think its cool. so maybe the pentacle can symbolise that. its used by the jews to symbolise the 5 books written by moses in the bible. the pentacost or something like that. thats christian. but when debbie sees it she thinks wiccan. because its a symbol used by wiccans. and i may like the symbol and it means other things to me than it would to other people, i understand that, but i don't want that kind of misunderstanding. here its just meant to symbolise fire. its the celtic symbol for aries. i don't want people to first associate me with wiccans. i have nothing against them but it gives me very different images from who i am as a person. that bugs me. a lot. and i do like the symbol i made, though i want there to be more to it than just my birthday, and my relatively fitting personality to that zodiac. but what makes me ME? i think i need an outside point of view for this.
and i will never ask debbie again. she says something blue. i explain the color matching problems i say it will be in black/white/grey depending on what layout i have, so it matches with anything. its the shapes not the color that counts is the message i'm trying to get accross by 'it won't match my layouts' even though blue is my color. then she goes and says panda. and i want to throttle her for sheer stupidity. because panda is the symbol me and rachel used for sonia and avril. confused? one word: eyeliner. there we go. but her sheer lack of understanding. what makes her think a panda is symbolic in any way at all?? until i sort out this symbolism i don't want to put my layout up. too many things linked together holding me back. i hope i can get this up no later than the end of february. and it IS late. goodnight.
