I finally finished transferring and categorizing all my old entries into my new Movable Type layout and it took more than 10 grueling hours. Reading back on some of the entries was quite enjoyable, to see how I’ve progressed since last summer. The current layout has only a single table (for the calendar) and the rest is done with div tags and CSS, which I had to learn. I’m fairly pleased with the layout though, as Trolley and Aaron helped me check cross-browser compatibility. I now know to never use verbose font sizes, only numerical ones if I ever want browsers to display a page in the same way.

John drove up over the weekend in order to attend my convocation. The ceremony wasn’t nearly as painful as I expected, although it did last over three hours, not including the painful picture taking afterwards. I shook hands with a very graceful chancellor on stage. Pat bought me an aluminum clipboard with dual paper compartments as a graduation gift, which is great.
