May 29, 2025: The brand new shiny Photo Album is live! The URL is now 'album' instead of 'gallery' (the old one is archived). Very happy with this change, as it allows me to yap a bit more in the corners of my photography. Many more photos were added in the process.
May 20, 2025: I have decided to "diversify my branding", which really just means some minor adjustments to a few chunks of text. Planning on populating the front page a little more in the process. The noodle page has also gotten a facelift.
May 15, 2025: Total combing through the entire site, cleaning things up and saving all files locally. Main pages are finished but I got a lot of work left to do in the shrines. Some pages will remain hyperlinked for a while (games, bookshelf).
April 20, 2025: Continuing with custom graphics after a brief test in the Museum over the week. The kitchen is now half-replaced but will probably need some more polishing.
April 13, 2025: Created new shrine on the trinket shelf: Birds.
April 10, 2025: Created the trinket shelf and working with what to put on there, starting with Super Mario, which will be a longer project.
March 27, 2025: New section of Museum created: The Bookshelf.
March 16, 2025: Spent the last few days improving and cleaning up the Museum and the Kitchen. Museum still needs a little more work design wise. -It now has two new pages/shrines: Gaming and Mitsurrea!
March 9, 2025: More adjustments to the Kitchen. Now it looks more coherent. Doing more work to the noodle tier list. Updated the front page garden.
February 19, 2025: Small updates here and there and planning a new section: The Kitchen.
January 31, 2025: Updated code and revision to the Bulletin Board. I've learned a lot in one month! A new shrine has been added to the Museum.
January 25, 2025: New front page section at the bottom that will function as a mini blog. I would like to add some level of interactivity eventually for silly reasons.
January 22, 2025: All navigation buttons replaced with ones I can mess up way more!
January 21, 2025: New section created: The Museum! Working on a complete overhaul of the navigation menu which might look awkward for a while.
January 18, 2025: Back in action! A few more photos added to the album and other small fixes elsewhere.
January 7, 2025: Main page overhaul. Maybe worse in some aspects but looks as I first intended + better for customization!
January 6, 2025: Luna has been restored. Blog template created and attempts to fix the front page.
January 5, 2025: Hall of Fame wrestled with. It looks like crap :D It for some reason knocked Luna out of place??? Working on it.
January 3, 2025: Photo album page added.
January 3, 2025: Home page remade and info page layout complete! Content still needs finishing. Jerma added.
January 2, 2025: Bulletin page layout complete! It looks very cute! Do not expect there to be any actual blog posts in there for a good while, though.
December 31, 2024: Site created!
+ Firefox and Chrome compatible.
+ Coded with one human's filthy hands.
I want to do something else here, actually. Not sure what.
May 29, 2025: The slugs ate all my Daikon radishes :((((
Oh well. Sowed a new round, alongside some other basic snacking veggies and herbs. Transplanted two flowers: Snapdragon and Black-Eyed Susan. The first round of Nasturtiums have sprouted!
May 26, 2025: A day of plentiful transplanting! (+ recording it, also) The following plants are now outside: All squash and pumpkins, 10/15 tomatoes, 3/10 chili/bell peppers and 'Velour' pole bean x3 ('Yard Long' died oops)
This is the season it becomes clear that I grow a very avarage and normal amount of plants /s
May 24, 2025: I FINALLY got the potatoes in the ground!! SHEESH. What happened here is that I was SO late that most stores had ran out of potatoes and my dad had to help me hunt them down. It's gonna be some late tubers this year but at least it's done!! I also transplanted the cabbage outdoors.
Stray pansy update: It is red.
May 13, 2025: A very nice warm day. Transplanted the celery outdoors. I also recorded a video that might show up sooner or later...
May 12, 2025: The first outdoor sowing!! I also carefully introduced a few plants to the outdoors over the weekend (amaranth, beans and vervain). Temps are looking fantastic right now, but I'm not going to rush anything. Tomatoes and chilis are going to need hardening, and I am always extra paranoid about the flowers. I am so extremely late to the potatoes and I won't even have time to chit the first batch. They're going in immediately between the 13th to the 15th. I'll save a few to chit for a second round.
May 4, 2025: Good lord, it's already May. It's still quite cold here, but the final prep has been complete outdoors and I've finished weeding the pots! The only thing left is fertilizing and mulching the beds, but I think I'll start the root veggies next week regardless. I also found a stray pansy that seeded from last year! I transplanted it into its own pot. I'm excited to see its color!
April 27, 2025: You won't be seeing me recommending growing beans indoors because of their sheer power and hatred of transplanting, but I'm doing it this year because they were absolutely decimated by slugs last season. If I transplant them while they're already strong they'll recover from getting ate much faster! I do always start squash/pumpkins indoors, because they're little sweethearts.
April 15, 2025: Spring cleaning! All of my outdoor beds have been cleared. Now they only need fertilizing before the first outdoor sowing: carrots, beets and other root veggies. I hope to buy some manure, but I also have some pellets and bonemeal + organic material to bury. Some tomatoes are now on the porch. Not forever, as there's another cold snap next week >_>
April 4, 2025: All 15 tomatoes have been potted up. I'm running out of space and grow lights and feel a little bad for them... They are a little leggy, but having a good color is what matters. Nevertheless, everyone's still doing quite well, and some peppers are fruiting. 'Sweet Banana' is a trusty early fruiter! Spring is coming, so a few less precious babies can be put in the window (this is fine, you can just expect a little extra legginess).
March 27, 2025: A little late to it, but I finally got a big batch of flowers in the dirt! I have a lot of exciting new picks together with my traditional darlings: Dahlia, Aster and Snapdragon. Everyone else are doing well! A few cucumbers are up and 15 tomatoes have propagated.
March 9, 2025: This is when shit gets serious. Tomatoes are going in. My chili's are over 15cm. Help.
February 12, 2025: Chili's are growing good, most between 5-7cm! First repotting of the year.
January 31, 2025: 2 Jalapeño's and 3 bell peppers are up and thriving. They're growing so fast!! The new, pricier dirt was an excellent decision.
January 25, 2025: More Jalapeño's are getting rooted! It seems that they are way earlier propagators than the other chili's, TIL!
January 24, 2025: A vervain has popped up super early! Welcome to the world first seedling of 2025 ♥! One Jalapeño has started rooting.
January 18, 2025: First sowing of 2025! Started with the typical early birds, chili's and a few slow flowers. These will start emerging between 10-20 days.
