i miss this place... life has been so busy lately. i meant to update a lot during the october holiday but i was busy even then with family stuff!!!

the days are short but the vibes are very cute. i sit in my bed, huddled next to the radiator, with a cup of tea and a biscuit. updated the homepage music to something more melancholy, i felt emo i guess.

can i call the people who visit this site houseguests, or is that too cliche? 13/11/24

happy halloween everyone ♡(>ᴗ•) 31/10/24

wow. archiving all of my bookmarks is making out to be a way bigger task than i anticipated... i only just finished the graphics collection section, and that only has 16 links. mostly cuz i kept getting sidetracked... ahhh!!!!!!! this is gonna take foreverrrr (⇀‸↼‶) rlly proud of the css there tho. 06/10/24

life has been busy. miss u 17/09/24

happy 9th anniversary, undertale! and happy grand festival, splatoon players!!! *\(>u<)/* 15/09/24

it's such a nice feeling when you recognize the usernames of producers you like on soundcloud commenting on other tracks in the wild... like wah!! feels like a connection, half way between catching something and finding something you lost? can you tell that i'm in a poetic mood right now... 09/09/24

happy birthday miku 31/08/24

new page!! it's all about conlanging, but i called it the garden because of the floral theme. speaking of... do you like the way i name my pages weirdly to match the house-of-me theme? i'm worried it makes it difficult for visitors to easily navigate. please let me know here!!:

do you like the navigation system being ambiguous?

YES!! it's more fun to explore that way

NO!! it's confusing and makes it take longer to find what i want

doesn't make a difference to me

or here! thank you! 15/08/24

it's been so much fun to edit this site over the past year and i've learnt a lot. to celebrate, i made a button!! i put it in the "doormat" bit. happy birthday houseofme!!! i've got more stuff coming, so stay tuned!

buh,... i ate too much special k...
i have a genius idea in the works. ☆⌒(ゝ。∂) 07/08/24

the camera section has been removed... alas, tis a shame. also, go check out the banger video essays i found and put in my recs! art is cool! 05/08/24

categorizing music into genres is only helpful in the sense of telling some1 what ur into. debates over it are so fucking lame. ITS ALL ART!!!!!! who gives a fuck its SUPPOSED to be nuanced. 02/08/24

yeah, i finally made the kaomoji page!! take a look, if ur into cute things!! :3 it's built to look best in the iframe btw. 17/07/24

i'm trying out a colour scheme change, because pink-on-pink, as cute as it is, was getting a little obnoxious... im not sure on the way it looks now, i need to come away and back and look at it later. also, i like to go on neocities and collect links to bookmark in my 'read me' folder, and it feels like going to a book shop and buying a tonne. feels like im binging something, its so fun. 13/07/24

having free time is GREAT. anyway, i'm trialing adding less formal, more silly posts on my soapbox. i hope i can post more because i love reading other peoples', especially with "incorrect" grammar. hehehe. (read Because Internet by Gretchen McCulloch.) anyway, lmk how u find it. or not, i'm also shy and cba. but thats the unspoken rule, right? love u guys ♡ oh, and i appreciate the messages in my guestbook, they're all very kind!! 11/07/24

i've been spending a while working on this page, but the kitchen page is finally up!!! this is where i share recipes i like with you guys ^_^ i wanted to make it more complex, and hopefully i can in the future, but learning javascript has been pissing me off so. i made it more simple. i'm happy with it regardless, i encourage u to check it out!! 04/07/24

hello again... ive had some more free time recently, which means: i have more time for the site!!! so ive been fixing up some of the pages. the homepage has a new header, and ive been slowly reformatting and editing everything.

taking a break from the site has also made me realise i don't like some of the stuff- some of the blog is kind of pretentious-seeming, i'm not sure why, i think i was nervous to come off smart or something. some of my shrines have become a little more embarrassing, too. (///￣ ￣///)

i don't like deleting stuff (i always regret it later) so i'd just like to add new stuff to uh... take any attention off that, lol.

see you soon! 27/05/24

little update to the gallery, ive also added some posts to the recs page... I MISS YOU SO MUCH ú_ù||| I HAVENT FORGOTTEN ABOUT YOU ♡♡♡ 05/05/24

heya. im sorry to say that site dev will likely be very slow over the next few.. months, i guess? this week, i had so much work that it took me all (and im not exaggerating, all) of saturday to get all my leftover work done from the week. this sunday i still had some work and was so tired by the end of it that i didnt really feel like doing much, def not stuff where u have to think too hard, lol
(￣▽￣*)ゞ... unfortunately, it probably gets even more time consuming from here- i have important exams coming up in a few months time. i'd say by july, i might be able to splurge my time into this passion project again. but until then, please dont think ive abandoned it, because i love it to death!! this is just a heads up that activity will be slower going forward, for a while. i hope u guys are happy and healthy. much love, callalillie. 25/02/24

not that often, but occasionally i'll see people online complaining about how all the "normies" like lain now. i have to fight my primal cynical urges because i refuse to be like that. but for lain especially, dont you find it kind of meta? when you see her face weaving in and out of posts online, isn't it just like she's really in the wired? a week ago i heard my classmates going on tiktok together and singing the chorus of duvet by boa, and i remembered these people, but isn't it more fun to think that lain has become part of the real-life internet than stew about how these "randos" use her likeness to forge their online appearances?
also, i have the week off, so expect me to be around more! 12/02/24

new page!!!!!!!! check it out!!! ive combined some pages together to create an amalgamation of stuff im recommending to whoever drops by. its the library, you can find it in the cupboard.

if/when you play visual novels, or any type of game with multiple endings, do you play it thru to every ending? ive noticed that i like getting all the endings but sometimes my run is so perfect i dont wanna ruin what story ive made in my mind, y'know?
im gonna start finishing the new page soon. ive been putting it off because it involves a lot of admin-type stuff, but all the formatting and, gasp, even javascript, is complete. i will merge a few of my more boring pages into one super duper exciting one. hope u guys are healthy and feeling good.
(*¯ ³¯*)♡ 08/02/24

even tho i dont have the time for it often, i suggest everyone should learn how to make one dish you like. not only is it kind of fun to assemble stuff together, kinda like a quest, but the end result is so worth it. even tho i was tired, i forced myself to make brownies on sunday. it has payed off. these are so delish, perfect reward after long day, mmm....
( o˘◡˘o) 05/02/24

ahh, i studied so much today.. but it means i have tomorrow free, so im ok with it. anyway, im working on a new type of page. im very excited to show it to u and ive been wanting to do something like this for a long time, so i hope you will like it. here's a dumb little preview. 03/02/24

i made a guestbook!! these are so cute. i fully customised it too. on the homepage if u wanna. ♡♡♡ 01/02/24

i really wanna make a videogame. its just, apart from ren'py, all game engines will take me a long time to learn, and i just dont have that time. for now i have to stick to making text adventures in python on repl.it, sigh... (╥﹏╥) haha, this kaomoji reminds me of a time a girl wrote TwT as her kahoot user in my class, and the teacher thought she was calling him a twat, lol. 29/01/24

came down with a cold, it was kinda bad. i have actually been trying to get a cold, but guess when i got knocked out- sunday! luckily i was still sick by monday. i hope i can keep it up till tue, then slump back into my regular schedule. ive been trying to be more grateful lately... hope all of u are doing well. wish i could spend more time here (♡μ_μ) 29/01/24

hihi, guess what.... new page! :3c i put some photos up cuz i finally have enough that i like to share. the only thing prettier than the sky are geodes and gems. i want to hold one infront of a light and stare at it. also, it was my birthday recently. yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy 20/01/24

ugh!!!! doesnt it piss you off when you write a long blog entry or something similar, and then all ur tabs are unexpectedly closed? arhgraghrggse!!! if u can relate, you have my condolences. an hours worth of work, just gone...... ٩(╬ʘ益ʘ╬)۶ on a happier note, splatoon shrine is complete, check it out under "switch".....(っu̩╭╮u̩)っ 09/01/24

happy new year, everyone. i wish u all good luck going into 2024. (^_^)ノ 01/01/24

yoyo!! happy holidays!! i got u a present.... i wanted to finish the splatoon shrine i was working on, but didnt have time. then i got the urge to make a new blog/journal post/discussion about wii/switch sports. its a bit nerdy, but who knows! maybe u will find it interesting ☆ｏ(＞＜；)○ 25/12/23

yippee!!!!!!!! im free!!!!!!!! anyway, i noticed a phenomenononon.... online, younger people will say stuff like, "when the skibidi got gyatt in ohio lololol" purposely to confuse older ppl. and then older ppl will fall for it and get confused and be like, "what does that even mean!?" it means nothing. they are trying to trick you. dont let them decieve you like this. anyway, i'll never input anything else into intergenerational squabbling online cuz its fucking dumb 18/12/23

ok guys. two more weeks of exams. so hyped to be chronically online again when its over. 01/12/23

work is hard!!!!!! i want to be lazy and never work again. but i dont want to be a leech... 25/11/23

guess what. my uncle/cousins stopped using their wii u ages ago, and since my uncle knows i. quote-on-quote, like games, he said i could indefinitely borrow it!!! i got in a round of splatoon ONE amongst my revision (also why i havent been updating too much. doubt anyone was following too closely,but if u were (1) thats why (2) awww ty ^///^) and it was functional ?!?! ive always heard from others that the controls are bad, the subs are too op, it takes ages for people to queue into the battle and theyre often bots, but my round was awesome!! admittedly, it was only one round, but still ?!?! anyway, apart from splatoon 1, not really sure what else i will be able to play. like, i can "get" them, but is there anything i WANT to play? maybe an animal crossing..? but i already have that game on my switch-boo and my old 3ds. there are some cute adventure time games, but i also already got them on the 3ds. ive always wanted to play fatal frame but im too chickenshit. im not too into zelda, and theres no mario games i wanna play. usually i'd opt for sonic but.... im not playing sonic boom. thats all ive got from skimming the wiki. i guess i will look for sth more niche in the xmas hols. i hope u are doing well. ??/11/23

before breakfast/revision, i got in a couple rounds of splatoon 3 for the splatfest (fistbump v hug v handshake, me on team fistbump) and i won a 100x battle out of the blue!!!!! yippeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i got to go on the float and take pics n stuff ٩(≧▽≦)۶ i think that might be, like the first or maybe second time ive ever done that! also happy bday to the imaginaries below !! today is a good day.

kool team fistbump art w my absolute fav splatoon character evrrrr (did u see her appear in the chill season trailer?!!?)

18/11/23

apparently, the game shadow the hedgehog 2005's birthday was november 15th. however, this was the american release date. in europe it was november 18th. also, ive read online the character himself's bday is like three other things, and i dont think this game is his first appearance but... anyway, as it happens, november 18th is also minecraft's twelfth birthday. luckily its a saturday tomorrow. i think i will try and make a cake in minecraft. merry chronically online day in advance, everyone.

i like this post and thought it was relevant

17/11/23

a little update on just SOME things i want to do but dont have the time for cuz of exams (like properly important ones too)
。゜゜(╯︵╰) ゜゜。

• media samples catalogue. u will know what i mean when its made
• some more shrines, splatoon & minecraft 1st in priority
• overhall all the boring, basic iframe pages and add more cute graphics/features to homepage especially
• follow all my bookmarked neo sites on the actual neocities website so i can get updates n stuff (~100/175 ?)

as much as i like sonic, i really dont like sonic prime. it has its good parts- the animation is done well, if a little stiff, and the fight scenes are awesome and imo the best part but... the writing is so bad. the plots alright but the dialogue is the most predictable and boring thing ever. its just such a shame cuz i think it had great potential... 11/11/23

youtube transcripts are good and make it easier to read stuff, but also i love how u can use them and control f for certain phrases. you can search 12 hour long videos for a phrase!!! thats so useful!!!!!!!!!!! putting this out there incase some1 didnt know yet!! 11/11/23

finished bocchi the rock yesterday. made me cry, actually. very good, definitely- if ur looking for a slice of life highskl rockband introvert anime, this is totally 4 u. 07/11/23

happy guy fawkes! the fireworks are so pretty from my window. 05/11/23

ah, i have so many ideas!! i have so many things to say and not enough time, considering i will be busy starting monday... please bear with me, i have so much passion for this site. more is definitely coming, just later. thank you to everyone who has enjoyed this site so far. (ノ_<。)/ 04/11/23

dev update: im working on two super cool subsites, methinks. they have their own custom layouts, and im gonna make a third one before i consider releasing them, i think. im excited to show the audience what ive been tinkering away at for so long!!!!!! 03/11/23

ah halloween is over.... this is the stage of the microblog where i post too much because i'm over excited. too bad i'm not a robot! anyway, thought i'd let you know that i ate kebabs today. im thinking maybe i could feature long form ramble on my site, maybe excerpts from my super secret dreamwidth..? i'm still thinking on it. be good ^_^// 01/11/23

happy halloween!! guess what. the microblog is back.
