Unoffical project I'm going to start on to waste away my free time.

BTW have you heard there is a new editor for posting on Blogger? If you want to see, go under Settings>Select post editor, and there are 3 options, select 'new editor'.

However do not make a post under the new editor on this blog! Blogger tends to screw up your posts by chucking in random page breaks after your first picture/sentence, and since this blog template code doesn't support* page breaks it messes up your formatting, as you would have seen with the 2 last posts (which by now have been fixed).

That said, if you do own your own blog, and it is not a classic template*, please feel free to test out the new options you have on the new editor. If we do make a new blog template in the future, we'll try to fix the issues with the new editor, so you can use the nifty features.


*Admin: (for those wanting tech details). Basically the new editor uses a piece of code that coincidentally uses exactly the same CSS element as one used elsewhere to break the sidebar into sections and posts from each other. So when I've got time I'll edit the code to prevent this happening. If you're lucky your template shouldn't have this problem (so it is not a problem specific to all classic templates).

note: Someone tell me how to fix the blog posting. I don't know how this thing's gone wacko...could it be the new blog editing toolbar? Meh, don't ask I guess.

Edit from admin: It happens whenever you post pictures. By some happy coincidence Blogger changed their code and some of it references mine when it shouldn't...


I was quite perplexed when I recieved this in the mail, because I haven't had any mail for a week (I might have been suffering from e-mail complex, when I check my email everyday only to get none, and then read through my old emails for entertainment. I am that depressing.) Turns out Windows Mail Alerts, which I had been playing around with while I was in the dark ages of high school, has turned itself on again somehow, first with the reminder that a friend's birthday was coming up, and now this. Odd. If I remember, no one has said anything about prayer night, right? I've been away from youth for too long or...


I open the calendar up, and realised that 'Prayer Night' has been listed on every single Wednesday for the past years. So, this 'event' has been unchecked for that long?


Oh no! Am I going to spend 3 hours figuring out how to turn this thing off, so I don't get spammed for the rest of the month? Is it acutally going to spam me everytime now? Or do I really need a reminder to pray more? Because I have a confession to make. I don't pray as much as I should.

Whatever that is, I think I know the orgin behind the mystery of the prayer night. I think somewhere around when I was high school, the youth started a weird Wednesday prayer-night, to the allusion that if we all prayed at the same time then all our lights would combine to make a laser focus beam that would hit God in the head, and then maybe, He'll listen to our prayers (this is just me making silly anolgies in my brain, so ignore me if nessessary).

I remember clearly that I would try every Wednesday night to crawl on my computer, visit the newly ramped blog and then pray at 9:30. But, this is when I was at high school, and at high school I was the champion at procastinating (I still am). Instead I would crawl to my inbox, then to other sites, and then come 11pm when it was time to sleep, I realised I forgotten all about the thingo. I would then open the youth blog, then make quick rushed prayers starting with 'please forgive me God for not praying when I should but you probably wouldn't mind...so...'

So enough was enough. I was fed up that I couldn't make promises to pray at 9:30 sharp, so I played around with the alerts for Live mail, and there. Every Wednesday I will get a cheesy email that would say I had to pray.

But today, the blog is dead, and we don't do those prayer nights anymore. I would, if the alerts had continued for the next 2 years or so annoying me and asking me to get there and pray. Acutally it wouldn't have made a difference, I am quite the disappointment anyway, because the alerts probably only worked for half a month before I just ignored the emails. Epic fail.

Still, blasts from the past are welcoming. Sort-of. One day, when I set things right with God, I'll encourage everyone to start praying at a certain time, and then maybe the laser beams will start swinging again. God will be happy. I think He likes laser beams.
