In every Individual, there is a force more powerful, more mysterious than the inner workings of the Universe. Shaped by thought, fuelled by emotions, forged by life, touched by spirit and loved by love itself, it is the everlasting gift called Imagination...

Suvon is the name of a World that I am currently working on in hopes of sharing with other fiction writers. It's a project that has taken me quite a while. Right now, I am on a slow process at the first book, a King's Heir.

Xfresh Archive: Xfresh Blogging

Mood-of-the-day: Like a lab rat in a maze, but there's no cheese!

I woke up from a very weird dream last night. I thought of calling my alter-alter-super-large-ego the Voice of E. Diot dream reader to interpret it, but chances are I'm pretty much sure what it means; too much tom yam last night and the exams coming up in 3 days. Besides, E. Diot would probably preaching futuristic horrors all included untimely deaths from overindulgence of rich and obesity-risked foods, while eating my bank account (all my egos like to fight over money).

It's incredible that it's little more than half-a-month that I've been blogging and have over 20 entries under my name. I confess that I must have been possessed (*ahem* I mean, obsessed). I'm really glad that you guys like my blog, either visual perspective, html perspective, that you are actually reading this or simply because my blog looks neato.

Graphics had never been my thing; I'm terrible at photoshop (I would freeze in confusion). But I do like the templates that the very nice Xcrew had given us and it saves me the fear of making my own. But as more and more picture savvy bloggers are joining in, I had been surfing around for animated gifs and checking out backgrounds to suit my Suvon style. But I'm keeping the Blue Shards title background cos it's too pretty to be released :P.

Html codes are always a torture (and it still is). I was taught html at school but you know how teens' head are full of leaks when sitting down in their first PC lab experience. When I was 16, I was a web savvy gal. I made a site in honour of an anime series and had a 50,000 hit in my first month. Now that counter's broken, the e-mail n' password's lost, and the site had long since closed. Xblogging got me back why I had wanted to take an IT degree =D

Journaling had been an idea since I learn to spell right (R-I-G-H-T, yeh tht's it). But I got bored quickly (who doesn't? Please, I was eight!). And I had always been a private gal and detailing the events for people to read had been a scary thought (and people might get bored). But then, to fill the long periods of time between fiction writing (which I'm still in :P), I thought of doing something out of the ordinary (yeah, as if more writing is out of the ordinary!). Umm, if you'll excuse me, I've an uninvited Voice of Annoyance to squash (hey, I'm your best alter-ego! I'm always here!).

So overall, I think I did a pretty fine job. Okay, so maybe I exaggerate a little bit too much in 10% of each entry (with a white lie or two) *whacks Annoying Voice again*. But I like my new hobby and I give thanks to Xfresh for it. In the middle days of August however, school's closed and I'll have to resort to unreliable cyber cafes. I may not be updating Suvon Reality as often but there'll be 4 or 7 entries at once. Yes, I'll still be in blogging phase even with lack of the Internet.
