Hi I'm Bubs, welcome to my home on the web!

Thanks for stopping by! You have stumbled upon the personal website of Sidney Collins (aka Bubs). I'm a 24-year old student at the University of Alabama studying Computer Science and Mathematics. When I'm not busy programming you'll probably find me writing, drawing, reading, shopping, eating, or playing Monopoly.

Busy Lil Bee… that’s me!

Believe it or not, I have added up all 504 of the contest votes! You can check out the results here. I also posted the challenge results. Wow, I’m on a role! :nod: Three new fish joined my aquarium tonight - a pastel blue one, a pastel pink one, and a black/white spotted one (the dalmation one, as William put it)… they are so adorable! I haven’t named them yet… any suggestions?? Currently, I have six nameless fish :( hehe

I was excited to find out that I received Honorable Mention in Angelique’s Pixel Challenge :D

Be sure to check out the other winners because there were some great submissions. I still have to make Yaj and Jenny awards. So much to do, so little time!

Honorable Mention!

I’m chatting with Peter right now about how I haven’t updated in forever. I feel really bad for neglecting my site :cry: But its not technically neglect… I just haven’t had the time that I did this past summer. Like I told him, once I get completely settled in with classes and work, and when things calm down around the dorm, I will be back to normal. Hopefully, that will be really soon! I want to get back to work on learning PHP. Speaking of PHP, there is a massive error showing up on Perfection :confused: I gotta see what I can do about that later this afternoon.

I have to grab a shower and head to class now. I received a little gift from Lunatica a few days ago, thanks so much!! Thanks also to the three awesome people who took their time to comment (Jenny, Peter, and anjana) You rock! hehe Hope everyone has a nice day!

Yay!! Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers is out on DVD today… I know what I will be doing later LOL

Please Click! Please vote for me in Sugary-Sweet Top 50!

Exhausted!

~ (7/29/03) I found a new obsession! William and I fixed my old Super Nintendo… we forgot how much fun those Mario games were. We have been playing Super Mario Kart and Super Mario RPG non-stop hehe I don’t have time to post right now because I have a history test tomorrow :-P and I really need to study! Hope everyone has a great day. (Happy Birthday Peter) ~

This is gonna be a short post because I am exhausted :sleep: I will post more tomorrow. I joined Provance.Net today… it’s a cool way to promote your site (and get comments). What else did I do today… oh yeah… I also joined I Love Kaos — isn’t the link button just adorable?? That pesky javascript error is still buggin me… I think that the problem is the ‘Welcome to BubblesSOC’ on the status bar… I will try to fix that when I get around to it (look at me being a procrastinator once again!)

Thanks Tania! Look at the puddee© that Tania made for me… thanks girl! I wish I could pixel cute lil characters :stressed: Oh, before I forget, I want to wish Karrie a very Happy Birthday.

Thanks everyone for all your support! I get tons of lovely comments on my tagboard everyday… I really do appreciate you taking your time to leave me a little note :spin: I am really tired… like I said, I will continue this post tomorrow. Goodnight!

Here are a few random sites that I stumbled upon for you to enjoy: Evilness.Org, Pink-Flamingo, Annia Network, and Fluffy-Wuffy.Net.

(P.S. >> Thanks xuan, yukirin, Ada, and monkah for commenting!)

New Polls

I’ve been busy today installing a neat lil script I came across… it’s a fully-customizable, no popup ads, advanced poll script. < < There's the link if you are interested. I also made two new smilies: :spin: and :no: -- I especially like the spinning one hehe.

My mom gave me quite a scare today! She came in from working in the yard worrying that she may be having a heart attack. Of course, that freaked me out…. I had no idea what to do! Then, on top of that, she accidentally took an extra heart pill than she prescribed. Well, to make a long story short, everything is ok… I think she overworked herself in the hot sun. We called the pharmacist, who informed us that the mishap with the pills was not anything to worry about. Thank God!!

I have another history test tomorrow, so I’m gonna go study :study: Voting for the challenge has begun… so be sure to support your favorite pixel octopus. Also, don’t forget about the message board … we have 25 members as of now, and we’re looking for more! 3 people love me today: karla, xuan, and Natasja (new domain!)… be sure to pay them a visit :)

Blah

…and here’s how my rather dull day transpired: woke up, went to church, returned home, took a long, well-deserved nap hehe, woke up, went to my grandparents’ house to eat dinner, surfed the ‘net, watched Live and Let Die (James Bond), came home, watched Sweet Home Alabama with my mom, visited the message board, got mad at William, got un-mad at William, continued to the surf the ‘net… and that’s where I am right now :roll: LOL.

I did, however, install some cool b2 hacks — read more javascript, replace friends’ names with links, and smilies in comments. I especially like the smilies in your comments hack :nod: I love b2!!

Look what I found… Kitty made them… aren’t they just adorable! I want a real octopus. Did you know… that you can get octopi that grow no larger than the size of a ping-pong ball, and keep them as pets?!? When I get out of the dorms, I’m investing in a salt water aquarium so that I can have my own lil octi :D hehe

In other news… I am concluding the challenge so if you are interested in submitting an entry, get it in by tomorrow! Also, I need more nominations for the contest. The message board is just waiting for you to join and show it some love!

Let’s play with my new hack.

Blah blah blah…
[subliminal message start]
Show me some love… join the message board and leave me some comments!
[/end subliminal message]

How depressing :cry: Nobody left me any comments today! BooHoo… nobody loves Bubs. Going to cry myself to sleep now… hehe… goodnight!

Message Board Coming Soon…

Guess what??? I installed a message board today! :nod: I have been customizing it all evening (no, I dont have a life hehe) I dont know why I installed one… I never post on other boards! I just wanted a new challenge to keep me occupied.

I don’t have much to blog about… it was a pretty boring day. I wanted to plug Karrie - I stumbled upon her site last night, and it is adorable! :) Well, I guess I am going to work more on the board. Don’t forget to nominate a site in the new contest. Thanks Natasja and Fronda for your comments.

Back from the Beach

Sorry for the lack of posts… I just got home from the beach :) I hope everyone had a great/safe holiday weekend. Our vacation was a lot of fun, but I wish we could have stayed longer. On the Fourth, our condominium complex hosted a fireworks display over the ocean… it was lovely! The weather wasn’t that good, however. It was cloudy on Friday and Saturday… then, of course, on Sunday (the day we left) it cleared up. At least it didn’t rain or storm.

My History exam was pretty simple. The second half of the course started today. After class, I asked him about my grade. He had not graded my exam yet, but he said I would have an A in the class. :nod:

I posted a new contest this afternoon… go nominate some sites! ;) I still have not figured out the annoying javascript error that pops up sometimes… if you figure out what’s causing it, please let me know. It really gets on my nerves hehe. Loads of love to Peter, Natasja, tess, Jennz, Tina, and Ronnie for commenting. Also, thanks to everyone who commented on the tagboard and in the guestbook. I really appreciate the encouragement :D

I have a headache, so I am gonna take some Advil and hit the sack. Goodnight!

Such a Procrastinator

Ok, my history final is tomorrow and I really, really need to study…. but I’m not! I made a new, ugly skin tonight :P hehe. I hope that it is viewable in any browser/resolution. Please let me know if you find any errors on any of my skins so that I can get them fixed asap. Also, if someone could figure out the cause of the javescript error that pops up now and then, I will be much appreciative :nod:

I leave for the beach in less than 24 hours, and have I even started packing?? Of course not. I am hoping that I can get on the internet while I am away, but I doubt that I will be able to. Maybe I could figure out the B2 Blog via Email feature… I doubt that I will have time to do that either, though! Well, I have much to do, so Im off. Thanks Ana and dodo for the comments!

Storms, Tests, Hacks and Vacations

Tropical storm Bill is pounding us with rain. My family, William, and I are leaving for the beach Thursday afternoon… hopefully the storm will be over :tan: My history final is Thursday morning. I doubt I will study for it since I made good grades on the last tests (102, 99) hehe.

I installed a B2 comment hack by Dodo… now it is easier to plug my lovely commenters :* Also, Bittersweets.Net is back up. I hope to transfer my old B2 files to this server soon. Wow, this is a really random post… oh well, I’m tired so I’m heading to bed :sleep: Thanks Peter, su, and Maria for your comments… have a nice night!
