"Studying" Hard
Well, it's officially midterm week now. Thankfully, none of my midterms are today, so therefore I don't have to go to school, so I can "study" (meaning play video games and watch naruto)! XD

I've been spending my weekend "studying" very hard. Well actually, I did go over my history notes a little. There was a time, when I would actually put a lot of effort into this sorta thing, but I've been slacking off lately.


My Concoction
Yesterday, out of boredom, I picked up a cookbook and started looking through it. One of the things about this particular cookbook is that it has really nice photos of all the food.
Anyways, I see this really nice picture next to a recipie labeled "Brazilian Coffee Banannas". Basically, this is a mix of bananna, plain yogur, coffee and sugar. The picture shows a food that's chestnut colored with swirls of creamy white. I'm like "That looks sooooo tasty!" So, I decide to try the recipie out for myself.

Result: A mucky brown goop that's sorta spilling over the sides of the bowl.

It looked REALLY unappetizing. >_< I wish I had one of those comparison photos like in the commercials: what the book made, and what I made. XD It was tasty though. -^^- I think the trick to making it LOOK tasty is not the mix the ingredients so much that the colors blend together. It still tasted good though. I think maybe I'll make it again today.


In Other News
Not much other news. I went to the local arcade day before yesterday with my friend Rini. That was definitely fun. -^^-

I also went through an online CSS tutorial (googled "interactive CSS tutorial). It was interesting. To test my newfound skills, I created a webpage (sorta) where a lot of the major formatting was done CSS style. It was fun! -^^- I also found a way to make the scrollbars "disappear" using CSS. The trick is to set all their properties to be the same color as the background.

To see what I made, click on the link here. A pop up will appear asking you whether you want to open or save the file. Click "OPEN" to veiw it online.
