Happenings no more May 6, 2008
Posted by Sharny in : Blogs, Scraps , add a commentYes, I deleted the Happenings category. It was getting out of hand. None of the other categories could possibly compete with the great monolith that was happenings. As such, it’s gone. The fact is I rarely post about anything that isn’t a happening so really it’s just a bit redundant.
Over a year or What this blog is really for April 23, 2008
Posted by Sharny in : Blogs, Internets, Life, Thoughts , add a commentI hadn’t realized that I started blogging that long ago and of course I’m very glad to say that no one is reading this blog still. I never set out with the intentions of becoming some big blogger, not at all, I don’t really know why I started other than perhaps because I’ve always loved writing and at the time I had no outlet for all the thoughts and opinions buzzing around in my head.
More recently I’ve come to realize that actually the point in this blog is quite simple.
It documents my life in these nuggets of text but unlike an actual diary it’s on the internet so it’s at least possible for people to read it. Because of that fact, I have to organize what I write into something internet friendly but perhaps more importantly I can’t write anything really stupid that I would never want to read again. That’s the massive risk with me and diaries, massive exaggeration of feelings and events so as to make myself look unbelievably stupid if anyone (or even myself) where to read them.
So yes, in twenty years I can look back at the posts in this blog and remember the chunks of my life I am experiencing now, the things I might forget such as the fun of my first gigs with opium toad or my feelings approaching my A level exams.
That’s what’s important to me about this, the fact that it’s on the internet just means I can use it to maybe get things indexed on google…

Amagawd! Happenings! April 9, 2008
Posted by Sharny in : Blogs, Misc, Scraps , add a commentI get the feeling the happenings category might get a bit out of control, I seem to have used it on every post (or close) since I revived the blog. I need to just talk about something random that doesn’t involve any happenings (which is basically a category I use for stuff that happens) but I’m not sure if I can.
We’ll see…
Upgraded to Wordpress 2.5 April 2, 2008
Posted by Sharny in : Blogs, Internets, Scraps, Technology , add a commentI was kinda worried about the whole upgrade process, it’s not something I’ve done before and I figured something like this had the potential to be quite nasty but it seems to have gone off alright. I guess those crazy wordpress creating cats are still proving themselves to be kings of the blogging software platform (if that’s what you wanna call it).
I’ve got to say, the new dashboard does look rather spiffy (I think I may have slightly stolen that phrase, but it rocks so what the heck) and I’ve also installed a couple of plugins just for kicks. I’m probably not going to go about customizing the page as much as I did in the past, keep things a bit more minimalistic.
I should probably start making some WoW related posts soon since I said that I would and some more random bits of music stuff. I currently don’t have any working headphones so I’m deprived of entertainment whilst walking to and from school, such musical deprivation is teh suck.
