I'm working hard on it offline, and it will be uploaded soon. It's so empty and ugly at the moment because I accidentally deleted the entire codebase and database a year ago. It'll be shiny soon, I promise. x Victoria

Today is April Fool's Day. I recall the first April Fool's joke played on me when I was about 8. It was by my sister, Wei.

in Today...

  • Thursday, 17th May
    I baked 2 cakes to bring to work tomorrow for our BBQ.
  • Wednesday, 16th May
    I planted courgettes at my allotment after work and got savagely attacked by midges.
  • Tuesday, 15th May
    I knited and knited while listening to The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, and found out what happened to Harriet.
  • Monday, 14th May
    I knitted a loopy seat cover till late.
  • Sunday, 13th May
    was sunny and I cycled to town for the first time in months. Had a great time shopping and then working at the allotment.
