UpdatesDecember 29, 2005: Welcome to the brand new Kewlies! The site has (once again) been reorganized and given a facelift. I think this layout suits the site well, don't you? Anyway, as you can see, the site's been simplified greatly. For starters, several old sections that were destined to never be updated again have been moved to a new section: the archives (‘Ohana, calendar, senior trip 2005, hoss elections, memories/quotes, useless facts). The directory has been deleted. The "Photos by last update" page has been deleted as well, since it seemed kind of pointless. In their place, a new blog section is now up. The memoirs and writings have been merged to form the "library." The credits section has been moved under the "about kewlies" page. If all of this seems overwhelming, just surf the website for a little while; it's probably the best way to familiarize yourself with this site and its new organization. Aside from that, the photos section has been given a slight facelift. I hope people find that section easier to use now. Elsewhere, the site's accessibility has been improved dramatically. First off, the site's been rewritten in XHTML 1.0. All of the sections validate except for the blog and the archives. Secondly, the new layout improves a lot on user-friendliness, in my opinion. I hope everyone finds this update beneficial to the website! More updates are coming soon, including pictures! July 21, 2005: The middle school talent competition 2001 album is now back up, with photos restored to the best of my ability and with all photos in wallpaper sizes. The album itself has been completely rewritten from the bottom up in the new, "blue" format. The photos still suck though, haha. July 6, 2005: After a pretty good day spent with a good friend of mine, an update is now in the works. The Keoni-Nicole Wars album is now back up. I'm fixing up some other albums and will hopefully have at least one more up by the weekend. June 19, 2005: The layouts page should now be working again. In addition, some photo albums on the site should now be working again (see the pictures section to see which ones are back up). In addition, I've uploaded the May Day 1999 album in the newer gallery format so yeah it should be good. I should get more photo galleries fixed over the next week. 06/18/05: Some major changes here on the website. First off, obviously, is the website's new location. The site has been relocated to kewlies.betterperson.net, as we are now part of the "Better Person Network. I've been meaning to relocate the site for a while now, but I haven't had any time till now. So yeah. Secondly, there's a new layout. You might be wondering, "darn it Jordon you just changed the layout on your last update!" Well, because Aiea High School is so lowlife, I decided to change the layout to something new. Yeah, Aiea sucks. Anyway, this new layout was something I literally threw together in one day. This layout ("Sunset II" Version 11.0) is my first table based layout in a long time. Yeah, tables are evil but they're still convenient. As for content goes, I have a new section up. The videos section features some video clips of some random stupid crap that I just happened to capture on tape. Yeah, it's pretty interesting. Lastly, the pictures section is currently down. That's why all the pictures in the right module are currently broken (as are the associated links). I'll try to fix this in the coming days, but don't be surprised if I put it off for months. 02/27/05: Shouldn't be working on the site. Should be doing scholarships, projects, papers, and finishing my last two college applications (AHHHHH). Anyway, this is the new layout, part two of the Kewlies site overhaul. It's not very attractive but it's supposed to be relative uncomplicated and better organized than my previous layouts. It also reflects a huge change of this website as far as content goes. The tech and group sections are now gone. See this diagram to see where everything went in this masive site reorganization. The tech section and group section have disappeared and their content has been redistributed (see diagram). Several of the site sections have been updated. The about my friends, about the group, and web design pages have disappeared. The about my friends section will be merged into the GPI when I bring it back online later this year. In addition, some new sections will appear: the Directory, general nostalgia, photos by category, and Ka Hookele. In addition, one new section has already appeared: Memoirs. This is the only real new content that's online as of now. This is essentially my memoirs, full of observations, experiences, and stories from over the years. It will grow and grow. Right now, in the memoirs, there are two memoirs up: the 6th grade banquet and past couples (pt. 1). More will come. Please enjoy the new layout...it commemorates the class of 2005 of Aiea High School. 02/21/05: Another album has been overhauled. The May Day 1999 page has been overhauled. There are no new photos but the text of the page has been completely rewritten and the page has been given a new layout. This is part of the first phase of the Kewlies! site overhaul. 02/18/05: The first phase of the Kewlies! site overhaul is underway. The 6th Grade Memories album has been rewritten with a brand new layout that will eventually become standard on all my site albums. In addition, some twelve new photos have been added to that album, bringing the total photos for that album to 42. The entire page itself has been completely restructured and the descriptions completely rewritten to sound less child-like. Haha. Sorry the update took so long, there was something wrong with Topcities's FTP access. Depending on if and when we buy a domain name/hosting plan, this site might move so keep an eye on this site. 01/07/05: In the style of LAF (currently, this site's role model), expect Kewlies! to undergo some major changes as the day of our graduation approaches (currently in about five and a half months). For example, the pictures section is being completely overhauled. And I mean COMPLETELY. Even the photos themselves are being restored by hand (how I spent much of my winter break). Expect a couple of new sections as well as the removal of others. For example, the "About My Friends" page will probably be removed because the section is archaic and close to impossible to maintain in a manner I could possibly be satisfied with. For example, if you look Steven's entry on the page, it seems like we're still sophomores. Replacing the section will be an "about the crew" page, which I plan to be a page describing the people I hang around with the most. More memories will be added to the memories page, and work has begun on a new memoirs section. The "group" section will be kept but it will be highly renovated into something more useful than what is up there now. For example, senior trip 2005 is currently out of the question but small activities remain possible and I want to make sure that these activities happen (unlike the stupid iMovie stuff). The "about the group" page will be changed to reflect B3's current status. I also have some miscellaneous "directory" ideas for some school based things; these will definitely be launched by the end of Spring Break. Kewlies! has had the informal purpose since its birth to simply be a homepage for myself, dedicated to my friends and our lasting friendships (as corny as it sounds). While it doesn't have the "officialness" of purpose like Katherine's LAF site does, I feel it's something close. I aim to have more than 1,000 photos on site before senior prom. We may copy LAF once again in their idea to create a green and white layout to reflect our "Aiea" origins but I'm still not too sure. What I may do instead is create a C/O 2005 "splash" layout but any such thing wouldn't come until May at earliest. Anyway, thank you for continuing to visit Kewlies throughout our years of existence. 01/02/05: Akemashite omedetoo gozaimasu! Currently, I'm overhauling the majority of the site. I've rescanned many of the older pictures in order to present better quality pictures than the horrible ones currently on the site. I've also begun to use imaging software to try to (as much as I can as an ameteur) restore the photographs digitally. All I can say is that it's gonna take a while. I wish I had a new scanner. Anyway, expect a major update within the next week. Over the past few months, I've scanned dozens of new pictures and created a few new sections--it's just that I've been too lazy to upload them. In the meanwhile, I changed the picture on the "enter" page, the old caption was getting kinda old. Anyway, Happy New Year and hope 2005 is a good year for everyone. 05/30/04: Posted seven essays that I've written and edited. Geothermal Ventures in the Islands of Hawai'i, Save the Big Guns, Hornbeck tells it as it is! - A Columnist's Review of the Forgea Story, Grover Cleveland, 22nd and 24th President of the United States, The Pitiful of the Past; the Sympathy of the Future, Voice of Democracy - Freedoms and Obligations , and The Sovereignty of a Sovereign: The Decline of the Power of the Hawaiian Monarchy, 1810-1893. 04/24/04: Come look at the new pictures we just added. These pictures were taken by Sheldon Lo back on June 7, 1999 at our 6th grade banquet. If you're the type to get all nostalgic, you'll like these. BTW, I know there are some broken links around the site, I'll be working to fix these soon. 04/13/04: Final layout release. There have been minor changes here and there but otherwise everything should be fine. Sorry about the pop-up, I wanted to get rid of the banner. If you don't want to see the pop-up, use a browser like Mozilla Firefox which comes complete with a pop-up blocker and other stuff. See the previous entry for layout information. 03/27/04: Beta layout release. This is a break from our tradition of basing layouts on people. This particular layout is nicknamed the "Sunrise" layout and is based on a design by Eric Meyer. It works well in Opera 7, Netscape 7.1, and IE 6 for Windows, but I have no clue what it looks like in KHTML (Safari), IE for Mac, or earlier versions of Opera or IE for Windows. In earlier versions of Netscape, the layout degrades but is still functional. Official release will probably be by April 15 as long as no major issues arise. 02/12/04: In a break from our usual picture updates, I've added a new writing to the writing section: Mystery Girl. It's a short story that I rewrote the other week. Hopefully you'll find it up to your reading standards. Also, I updated the about me page with some stuff. 02/07/04: Eleven new pictures have been added to Kewlies, all from 8th grade year. They've been added to the 8th Grade album, currently one of my larger and more frequently updated albums. This is probably on of its last updates because, quite frankly, I'm running out of pictures to post. Sorry, but due to a lack of time, there won't be any new layouts until at least after junior prom. 01/04/04: Good afternoon (as the case may be in Hawai'i). Today I have twenty-one new pictures for your enjoyment. These pictures are all of touristy and historic stuff in the downtown Honolulu area. I think these pictures are fairly decent so give them a look if you're interested. Haha. Oh yeah, we now have our own sidebar page. If you have Mozilla, Netscape, or other Gecko browsers that have sidebars, please add this page to your sidebar! I don't have the script to add it directly yet, that's coming next update. Well that's all. Buh bye. 01/01/04: Akemashite Omedetoo Gozaimasu! In celebration of this auspicious event (yeah, right), I've spent the better part of two days scanning pictures for you people (instead of doing Japanese homework). So, here's the outcome: Fifty-eight new pictures have been added to the website in a brand new album, featuring various people around campus during Freshmen (2001-2002) year. From tree people to Matsui's Crew (we weren't B3 back then) to exotic fruit, I've got it on this album. I've also got two new sections (or rather, two sections that should've been up in August but I haven't gotten around to adding till now). Heh, heh. These sections are: the writings section, the music section, and the useless facts section. The writings section contains some of my weird writings. The music section contains some music I like, as well as MIDIs for download. The useless facts section contains enough useless facts to keep you amused for about fifteen minutes or so. 12/27/03: Twenty-six new pictures have been added to the site! Twenty-six pictures from winterball 2002 (yes, 2002, these are last year's pictures); don't get much better than that. But that's not it, we need your help with that page! Go there to find out how you can help! I also fixed the counter on the bottom. Wow this site isn't very popular, haha. I want to change that! Refer this site to a friend and I'll give you a cookie. 11/23/03: Yeah, I've had a lot of free time this weekend. So I sorted through about 70% of my photo collection and found a lot of interesting pictures (hehe) and some pictures that I overlooked previously. Thus, I've added two more pictures to the AIS 2000 May Day, Rites of Passage, Last Day of School album, and one more picture to the AIS 1999-2000 Random People album. More updates will come soon. 11/21/03: More new pictures! Yup yup, come and get it! These are pictures from winterball, freshmen year. All these pictures are copyright Nicole Miyaji (thanks Nicole!). Also, this current layout isn't working very well (for me) so expect some subtle or maybe moderate changes to the site soon. Well that's all for now. Bye. 11/09/03: Added new pictures to the site! These are the first new batch of pictures since August. They are of one of the Japanese class field trips from last year (sophomore year, Nihongo level 2). These particular pictures are of a field trip to the Honolulu Festival at the Hawai`i Convention Center and to a Waikiki hotel afterwards. Enjoy! 11/04/03: Almost all of the site's photos have been renumbered. All this basically does is make how the photos are numbered more organized, and it makes it easier for future photo updates. For example, in the old system, a photo may have been put as "9-9-412.jpg", with the first 9 meaning the picture was taken in my 9th grade year, the second 9 meaning the pictures contains mainly pictures of 9th graders, and the 412 meaning it's the 412th picture on the site. There were problems with that system, so I changed it. The same picture would now say "2002-412", meaning the picture was taken in 2002 and it's the 412th picture on the site. All the pictures on the site have been changed with the exception of the following six albums: `Aiea Intermediate School's Random People, 1999-2000; 7th Grade People, 1999-2000: Predecessors of the Tree People; A Life in 8th Grade in Pictures, `Aiea Intermediate School; Moloka'i Trip 2001: 'Aiea Intermediate School Science Club; Faye's Birthday Party: UH Volleyball Senior Night 2002; and AHS Band Hilo Trip 2002. These changes fix some of the problems, and I will be making further less obvious changes to fix the other problems I've encountered. 11/02/03: I'm renumbering most of the website's photos. Meaning, for the next couple of weeks, the there are bound to be a lot of broken links and pictures throughout the website. Please bear with me, I want to change the system now so I don't have to deal with a problem later ("later" being after I graduate...it should be obvious what the problem is if you consider how my current numbering system works..). In the meanwhile, please go here to view some sexy pictures. 10/18/03: I updated the about me pages and added some stupid stuff. Yeah. 10/06/03: I updated the Senior Trip 2005 information, with more info courtesy Sheldon and a slightly different layout. 09/13/03: Presenting the Great Photo Index! This index sorts pictures by person instead of by event or year or whatever. The photo index currently catalogs the first 80 or so pictures in the Kewlies! photo "database". Which is why there aren't too many people in the index yet. I am slowly adding more pictures and I eventually hope to have my entire online collection in there. In the meantime, I'm scanning in more pictures. Oh, and please post in the Bugubugubugu group calendar if you're in Bugubugubugu. 08/15/03: 12 new pictures have been added to the Hilo Trip 2002 album! This is probably the last update to this album, bringing the grand total of all the pictures to 88, six more than my Moloka'i album. Also, the pictures sidebar to the right has increased in size by 50%. Why? Long story. Well enjoy the Hilo pics. 08/11/03: The counter has been readded. Fixed the view guestbook pages. Redid the site map page. I think I'll leave the Updates image for a while, I won't have the time to change it for a while. 08/07/03: School tomorrow. So, today I launch my new layout! This is "Diana" layout 8.0! This has been made because Diana shall be leaving Hawaii later on this month. Awww. Well, here's a layout in her honor! Well, honestly, she never visits this site, but oh well. Anyway, this layout hasn't been heavily tested yet but it should work in IE and Gecko-based browsers and Opera and any other browsers that support standards well. This layout uses CSS3/Javascript rollovers, seen at the top of the page, based on a quick lesson at Netscape DevEdge. There's a hell of a lot of new content up, too. There is now a "Group" section. Just for you, Nicole! There is also now a tech section, although some things aren't up yet. Also, the "useless stuff" thingy, which isn't ready yet. Look at my photography tips and the layout archive. Yes, I know the layout isn't completely consistent--some pages have a second section image and others don't, but there's a reason for that that you can read in my blog later on. Anyway, the site map is still in the old layout and so is the "updates" image. I will change those soon. I also changed my guestbook service from GeoCities to Dreambook. Which is ironic since it's the same guestbook service I started out with when I started webdesign. Well I hope you like this new layout! Oh, and Kristine Krystal 2.0 has been released, you can order it from the link on the tech menu! BTW, I know the ad banner messes with the layout but I hope to change it. 08/01/03: The day of truth, but alas, the new layout's not ready. Well you get to stare at Krystal for a few more days, arent' you lucky. Even though we don't have a new layout yet, here's some new content: Band Banquet 2003 pictures. 20 of them. Enjoy! 07/26/03: There will be a new layout for August, if I find time to finish it between summer reading (AP English, cough cough). Yeah. In the meanwhile, I uploaded some 35 pictures from the AHS Band's Hilo Trip, 2002. Yeah. Now, to achieve my goal of 300 new pictures uploaded this summer, I only need to upload 150 more by the second week of August! Damn, that sucks. Well, ttyl! 07/11/03: There will be a new layout coming soon. I was gonna base it on Steven, but I have fewer pictures of Steven than I thought I did so I may delay his layout and make a different layout...I'm not too sure yet. But I still love this layout a lot, topping this one off is gonna be tough. In the meantime, I uploaded 24 new pictures in a brand new album. These pictures are of summer school at AIS, during the summer of 2001. Expect to see a lot of Stacy and Lessa. Oh, and layout slightly updated. 07/08/03: As part of our ongoing commitment to internet standards, we have added a "Website Help" section. Even if you consider yourself an experienced web designer, please look it over. Internet standards are very important and make your pages faster and cleaner. We have also relocated our Kristine Krystal project onto this site. Kristine Krystal is a project to localize Netscape 7.0.x/Mozilla 1.0.x to 'Aiea. Please order it and try it out! 06/18/03: Well, I guess I'll make the best of this summer since junior year's gonna be junk and torture for me. So, I uploaded 39 pictures from the Hilo trip that our band went on last year. You can view them here. These are most of the day 1 pictures (it was a three day trip). Yeah. Enjoy. 06/14/03: Happy Flag Day, I guess. Idk, I hate George Bush. Yeah. I edited the CSS to make the layout look better. Or at least I think it looks better. Brittney might not think so. 06/08/03: Well Renyn's grad party last night was so good that I came home feeling really good. So, I came online and uploaded 15 new pictures for you to enjoy, all from the end of 7th grade year. These include Rites of Passage 2000, May Day 2000, and a couple of shots from the last day of school. It's also about time I updated the site stats below, so I did. 06/02/03: Wow, it's June already! Well, I've added 17 new pictures for you to enjoy in the `Aiea Intermediate School Random People, 1999-2000 (7th Grade Year) album. If you didn't know, my goal for this summer is to put up at least three hundred additional pictures onto this website. I've already added the first thirty-seven...only 263 more to go. Errr, I think this could take a while. I also edited the layout slightly. Oh, and I also updated the friends page. 05/27/03: Well I've added twenty new pictures to this website in an all new album: `Aiea Intermediate School Random People, 1999-2000 (7th Grade Year). These pictures suck, so don't laugh too hard. There are maybe five or six decent pictures in there out of the twenty, but that's it. I've also updated the pictures terms of use, so please review them. I've lightened up slightly on the rules. 04/26/03: Um, okay, I've got to get a better update schedule. Nineteen new pictures have been added to the website! They are images of the Alvah Scott Elem. School 6th Grade Class of 2001 A-Plus students, who I tutored two years ago. They were the kewlest students ever. I'll be sure to attend (both) their graduations. Click here to view them! 03/22/03: Twenty-nine (29) new pictures have been added to Kewlies! Look at them here. These are stupid pictures taken at summer fun, some of the first I've ever taken. Which explains why they suck. Enjoy. (updated the picture module to the right as well.) 03/15/03: New layout! This layout is a lot more user friendly compared to my old Stacy layout, easier on the eyes than the Soyong layout, and (IMO) looks better than the Nicole layout. Welcome to Kewlies! layout version 7.0, the "Krystal" layout! This layout is slightly larger than the Nicole layout, and many things have changed. The links are now at the top. The site has been divided into several sections. Each division has different graphics. To get an idea of how the website was divided, you can visit the sections, or just look at my all new Site Map. For the first time ever, Javascript has been added to Kewlies. The site is written in transitional HTML 4.01. I hope to eventually make it in strict HTML 4.01. The "Krystal" layout is my favorite layout yet. I expect it to be up for a while. Layout information: optimized for Netscape 6.2.3 or higher (or other Gecko browsers), though it will work in all browsers, screen resolutions, and platforms except the browser Netscape 4.x. 02/23/03: Thirteen new pictures added to the 2000-2001 8th grade album!. Includes pictures ranging from art class to Android 17. 02/17/03: 10 pictures added in a new album, C/O 2006, 8th Grade: From Start To Rites of Passage. Includes mostly Rites of Passage pictures. 02/16/03: Reorganized the pictures section so it would be with the oldest pictures on the bottom and most recent on top. This is by when the picture was taken, not when it was added to the site. Thought that would be more logical. Oh well, bye. 02/11/03: In March, Kewlies! will undergo some major changes. I will begin to start separating sections, moving things around, deleting some things, adding some others, and refining the concept and content of the site. The next layout will incorporate more CSS, but probably less DIV tags, which I have grown to dislike because of a bug in IE 5. In the meantime, I've overhauled the pictures section into three separate subsections: on-site pictures, kewl off-site pictures, and non-site pictures. The on-site and kewl off-site pictures are HIGHLY recommended, the regular non-site pictures...er...anyway. I've also modified the color schemes on the 5 pages with yellow backgrounds. Yellow causes the most stress on the eyes, so they've been modified to light blue on black. The 98-99 Scott Elem, May Day 99, Keoni-Nicole wars, Aiea Inter. Student Talent Competition 2001, and AIS 7th grade 2000-01 pages have been modified. 01/19/03: I rebuilt the layout THREE times before I finally got satisfied. So here it is, the final(?) version of Nicole's layout, version 6.5. I rebuilt the entire site using cascading style sheets (CSS). Unfortunately I think the site is less user-friendly now (the text seems harder to read), but I guess I'm satisfied with the end result. Look! I did the entire layout without using the TABLE tag! (not including the photo table above.) This site is optimized for Netscape 6.x or higher (Mozilla M18 or higher, though 1.0 or above recommended) (Netscape 7.01 recommended), Opera 6.x or above (7.x recommended), and Internet Explorer 5.5(?) or higher. This is my first layout that is not compatible with Netscape Communicator 4.x, please don't use Communicator 4.x unless you want a really, REALLY junk web experience. I'll be editing the layout over the next couple of months so stay tuned. Updated the photo spotlight stuff above. I also updated the friends page with a new color scheme, cleaned out the links page, killed the weird RPGS section, and edited the layout of the pictures page. Also took down music page content. 01/10/03: Layout edited. Hehe. 01/02/03: Happy New Year! Kewlies! now has a new layout with new content coming soon! This is the Nicole layout! Works in most browsers, though I didn't test it in Opera yet. Let me put it frank: the layout is still in BETA. I got the general layout going but there are several things I still want to add before the layout is complete. Unfortunately these things won't be up till Sunday because I won't get some of my content till then. So, please remain patient and enjoy the current Nicole layout (which I know looks a lot like Stacy's layout but bare with me here I'm still gonna change some stuff, and besides the layout is based on a completely different code from Stacy's...I rebuilt the entire code from scratch in the past week). 12/01/02: Ok, you're probably wondering what's going on, with the Krystal layout over a month overdue and no Steven layout in sight. I've been incredibly busy with History Day, doing several new web ventures with organized groups around AHS campus, and marching band (same excuses as last year except for the web ventures part). I've had little time for this sight or several of my other sites. I'm renovating one site, building three others, redoing the layout on another, and completely rebuilding one website from the HTML doctype up. So yeah. But in the meantime, I've made changes to the pictures page to make it more accessible. I've also added 15 new pictures of us sophomores when we were in 7th grade (if you're wondering I don't appear in any of them, hehe). I've also added links to two offsite albums, with 14 and 18 pictures respectively, one being the 2002 Aloha Week Parade which the AHS Band participated in and the other being images from the slideshow from last year's 8th graders at the AIS Band. Also, after a long hiatus, I also got around to updating the Friends Page which was in a huge need to be overhauled. I made many additions and redid many of the descriptions so yeah. 18 new friends are there. In the meanwhile, you get to stare at Stacy until at least January. 9/29/02: 12 new photos have been added to the May Day 2001 album. Go see them! Ummm yeah. 9/23/02: And the photo-mania continues! 14 New photos have been arranged in a brand new album! May Day 2001...which we all loved and hated...can be seen here. There'll be more photos put up later, but for now that's good enough. I also updated the About Me page so it is less boring and easier to use. In the meanwhile, just totally ignore the friends page. It's out of date, and I've been meaning to update it since July. I just can't figure out how to give the page a face lift without violating the simple TOS of Kewlies. Anyway... 9/15/02: New Moloka'i pictures! With one new Day 1 photo and 17 new Day 3 photos, the 18 added on the page brings the total Moloka'i photos to 82 Moloka'i pics! This is the last update you'll see to this page in a while. I still have some 15 or so photos to add but I'm saving them until I can get a few reprints. I'm trying to decide what my next album will be, but I'm thinking it should be something a little more recent *COUGH*. Oh, and before I forget, I did away with the celebrity teens page. I didn't know how to maintain it anymore. There are certainly a lot of talented people throughout the 808 State, and if I could (and if I weren't lazy) I'd put every teenager in the state on the page. Unfortunately that's impossible so it's gone now. 8/31/02: New photos and stuff in the Moloka'i 2002 photo gallery. 25 new ones, to be exact. Enjoy! Also updated the featured pictures on the sidebar and the picture and feature pages. 8/18/02: I got rid of the portal, the network, and the memoirs. Everything else still exists. Bye.
8/17/02: Hey there! Stacy and I decided that we liked this site layout sooo much that it's gonna stay up until November!! I'll be removing and throwing in a couple of layouts pretty soon, but for now, Nicole and Kristine will have their layouts delayed temporarily.
8/7/02: Well...school's back on. That sux. Well I accidently screwed up the poll and made it a multiple choice poll instead of a single choice poll. Sorry bout that. I kept the results but from now on you can only pick a single choice in the Saddam Hussein poll. I also fixed a color glitch in the menu page. Aloha! 7/31/02: (Seconds later) Oh, I changed the poll! Here are the old results:
Lying around the house being lazy (4) 36.36%
11 Total Votes Hm...not that many people answer to my polls anyway, but I put a new one up. This one has only four choices, so yeah (for you observant people, yes, I did steal this poll from the Netcenter) 7/31/02: Don't hold your breath, there's no new layout currently and there won't be for a while...but in the meanwhile, I've completely reorganized and separated the photos on the Moloka'i 2001 page. Go look at it. I promise, it'll be worth the time. I also added some 15 photos to that page. It's eating my space really bad so I might make a spinoff site of it for my Netscape Communications Corp. space. So please take a look at the album. Oh yeah, and if you happen to have a copy of a book called "Hawaiian Yesterdays" lying around that you don't want anymore, please contact me about donating it or selling it to me! 7/22/02: Three updates in three days...and school right around the corner...what's wrong with me? Um...well, since I don't have any layouts to work on (sorry Daniel), I'm just refining the Stacy thing a little. I might fast-forward the layout that I was planning for Nicole a little since I'm ready to start web building at any second, but I'm too lazy. Plus, the software I'm using is about to expire so, um, yeah. And I gotta get my computer overhauled and I'm planning to do that in about a month, so that too. In the meanwhile, I've changed the picture on the index page as well as overhauled the 'Ohana page with changes that were made at the request of Faye and some that weren't. Remember to go look at the Molokai album. 7/21/02: Ok...I added like...11 new pictures to the Moloka'i album...these are some of the junker pictures (the ones with the horsies came out nice though) but I'll have more prettiful pictures in about a week. I updated the pictures page to fix a bunch of broken links (cause I moved the AIS band site thingy. The picture spotlight has once again been updated (last time it wasn't fully updated, my mistake, sorry, but it's fixed now). Oh...uh...yeah...sorry, I gotta delay just about all my new layouts about month...sorry...but look on the bright side. You get to see Stacy and Nadine and the horse for another month. Hehehehehehe. 7/20/02: Site reorganization underway (along with that almost unenjoyable summer reading stuff...grrr). Meanwhile, take a look at the updated picture spotlight thingy. 7/11/02: Bad day. Oh well, I don't care. I updated the credits page as well as Faye's birthday page. Oh, if you see the guestbook you'll notice I finally got the notice I was hoping for from everyone's favorite flute player... 7/4/02: Happy fourth! Uhhhh well short update here...a few (like...four) pictures were added to Faye's Birthday Feature (yeah her birthday was three months ago but who's counting?). All of them have Nicole in it and I can't exactly post many more until Faye gives me her album to scan...darn it. HEAR THAT FAYE?? Ok anyway, you can view the pics here. Please go look at them, even though I didn't put up captions for the majority of them yet (mainly cause I have no idea who the players are...). Hey, gimme a break, I don't find them "hot" like certain *other* chicks hanging around that page *cough*. Also, minor adjustments were made to the UH Men's Volleyball Page. Ok anyway, bye. 6/30/02: It's 11:41 PM right now and the new layout's up! If you don't see a menu to the left side, then you're on the wrong page! Click here to enter the "real" site. If you see a menu, then you're in the right place, so don't do anything. Ok, this is the first layout that will ONLY work as it's supposed to in an 800x600 resolution. I really recommend that you change it to that now if it's not. However, if you really don't want to (like Ryan) then just leave it as it is. This is the Stacy 5.0 layout! Brand new, improved, with all the eye candy of...uh...something. Stacy's gonna be mad at me when she sees this, but all the better! This layout has frames (yes, I once swore never to use frames but oh well, I guess Monty finally convinced me when he converted his site. This layout is by far one of my favorites, mainly because I spent three weeks trying to learn how to use the frames correctly. This is the first time I actually used frames in a site so...uh yeah. Enjoy the site! New material is in the weird RPGS, and a couple of other sections that I don't remember. The home page has a totally new layout and look that I hope you like. Like the other layouts in my rotation, this layout will last for about a month. For further layout updates, you can look at my blog if you know where it is (if you don't, then don't bother looking for it). 6/22/02: We've redone the look of our privacy policy and terms of use and updated them. We also have a new affiliate! Monty! There are also minor layout tweaks as well as a new photo of the moment and new photo for the "newest pics" feature. 6/16/02: Short, small update (Gotta finish my summer reading). Six picture have been added to the UH Men's Volleyball Page, part of Faye's birthday feature. Enjoy them. And yes I do realize that the pic of Tam below doesn't work because I was forced to take it down. However I'm keeping the other picture up because it's really, really pretty (that is, it's Nadine and Stacy taking a picture without being FORCED to take a picture and it's not a picture of their arms trying to block their faces from the camera). Really rare pic, fancy that. Oh well see you later. 6/9/02: Filler update. I currently can't add much to the site because I'm taking up...uh...about 95% of my GeoCities limit? Therefore, I'm announcing that my AIS Band Website [LINK] will be moving to a new account within the next...uh...month. To be truthful that's one of the few sites I still actually feel like updating. Don't ask me why. In case you haven't heard from my constant rambling, Mozilla 1.0 has come out! Four years in the making...hmm. By the time Mozilla 2.0 comes out I'll probably be in college. That's...not right. Anyway, download Mozilla 1.0 here if you'd like. Mozilla's a handy browser, a great alternative to IE. I haven't tried it myself yet, but I do have previous beta versions which were very great and quite stable. Anyway, Stacy hasn't answered me yet. I'm guessing she can't see this. Oh well, back to the drawing board.
 
I recently got these two pictures courtesy of Ms. Chun (these pictures are up here illegally cause I didn't get her permission to use them yet so please don't tell her!!). These two photos are the best photos I've seen in a while. As many of you ppl know I wanna be photographer...sorta...uh..not really. Anyway, if I can become a photographer, I wanna be able to take pictures like the ones shown here. They're just beautiful. They are candid and well...beautiful. They are at a level that most photographers only dream of achieving. Uh...does Ms. Chun know this? Maybe she can sell her collection and become a millionaire. Anyway, image descriptions: the pic to the left is of Nadine and Stacy on the island of Maui. I'm not sure what the horse's name is but (if you look at the large version of the pic), the pic is really really cute. The one to the right is of Tam. She's singing at a winter concert over at the high school as the vocalist as the rest of the band plays (uhhh they were playing kinda loud). Anyway, great photos, whoever took them. The picture of Nadine, Stacy, and the horse is currently my desktop wallpaper ^_^ . Production is brought to you by Ms. Chun. HTML, image sizing, and screen capture is done independently and Ms. Chun's not supposed to find out. Shhhhhh... 6/7/02: Stacy! Can you see this? After messing around with the HTML a little, I'm hoping that this can be seen now. Sorry. Anyway, I've added 25 new pictures (yes that's right, a pretty darn massive update) to the AIS band site, and there are still more to come. Of those 25, if I'm not mistaken, there are two of Stacy herself. Click here to view them. Hope you enjoy the photos! 6/6/02: I updated this page but it disappeared; what's up with that? Anyway, on the sidebar, I added a layout schedule for the next...uh...year. Notice August 2002 =D. Also, there's a new album! 88 pictures are now on the site, with these 13 new ones. Click here to see them! The picture of the moment and recently added photos on the sidebar have been updated as well, appropriately. Also, Stacy, can you read this yet? I messed around with the HTML source, I'm hoping you can see this text now. Please tell me next time I see you. 5/31/02: (@ 11:00 PM Hawai'i Time) Welcome! This is Kewlies! Layout Version 4.0; featuring Monty! This is the first in a series of layouts that will continue until the end of my sophmore year, celebrating several of the people who are in the several groups that I am a part of (including several 8th graders, the student council 2002 for the C/0 2005 class, the Tree People, MCS, MCR, the Matsui Group (name pending), and the Losted & Founded Sophmores (see site link below)). This layout should stay up till at least the end of the month, but I will archive it and maybe eventually reuse it. This layout features updates to several sections: shoutouts (complete with Jaecie action!), moved pages, an interaction page (with nothing up), and a few other random updates. I can't even remember all of them; but just go through them and see what there is to see. Layout info: This layout works well in Opera 6, Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.01, but I'm still trying to see how it works in Mozilla, Netscape 4.x, and older browsers. If someone out there has access to a Mozilla based browser (i.e. Netscape 6 or 7), please tell me if the layout works (if you can even SEE this message...). If it doesn't, I'm going to go into extensive editing; cross-browser support is very important to me and this layout. Mahalo nui loa. Best viewed in a 800x600 resolution in high color. 5/31/02: For all intents and purposes, my new layout is complete. It should be up by tomorrow. For those who didn't already know, the layout is based on Monty, and the "hyper Hawaiian girl" I described earlier was Stacy Odquier (I don't know if she has Hawaiian blood, but hey she's a Hawaiian citizen, is she not?). But, in the meanwhile, to keep you happy...here's a cute picture of K-Line.
 Yes, that is her wearing a dress. And as for you, Jaecie, one day I'm gonna get a pic of you in a dress (i.e. next year's band) and you're gonna be up here with K-Line...hehe. 5/27/02: Ok, this sucks. Last year's juniors are seniors, the sophmores are juniors, but we the lowly freshmen are still freshmen until next year's freshmen (who are currently 8th graders) become freshmen when their school ends in two weeks. Oh well...two weeks isn't that long to stay freshies, is it? Of course, in the minds of the upperclassmen we'll always be the dangerous little freshies. 5/25/02: I came back from graduation a little while back. The class of 2002 has so much pride it was impressive. Anyway, I just wanted to take a moment to say aloha to the seniors who aren't really seniors anymore. Aloha! You will be missed a lot. We, at Kewlies! Communications, Moana Pakipika Co., and Mosaic LLP, hereby declare this summer C/O 2002 Summer! Ok that was corny, but oh well. Now, for the C/O 2002 Summer Update #1: I've added two new features to the front page of Kewlies!. It looks slightly weird at the moment, but when I put up my new layout (don't worry, you'll see this "Sofine" layout again, but it might look slightly different) it'll all fall into place. Below, at the bottom of the page are two pictures. The first is the pic of the moment, which is the featured pic of the update (no it won't change every update). The second picture is a sample picture of the most recently added pictures, and it is linked to the album where the picture resides. I'm working on a new layout right now, and this layout is based on Monty which would probably make a certain hyper Hawaiian 8th grader pretty darn happy... 5/24/02: Hey, about four hours ago, I came back from the BEST CONCERT EVER!!! It was the greatest!!!! Hehe. Fleur de lis sounded pretty darn good. Anyway, I've updated the website once again. I've added a web poll to the left (obviously). I've also updated the Hoss Elections section with the results from the very old 2001 elections. I'm not sure if there will be a 2002 election but I'm hopeful. So, please vote on the poll (cause it took a lot of effort to put that together) and view the election results (because it took me a year to put that page together as well as the fact that I won like five times or something...hehe). Ja ne! 5/23/02: 13 new sucky photos have been added to the pictures section. The pics are so terrible that you can barely see people's faces. But if you wanna go see them, there's a link in the pictures section or you can click here. Also, I'll be updating the links before summer school starts. But for the time being here's a plug for a site from a bunch of sophmores (juniors?) who made a really nice website. Lost & Found...view it here @ your own risk. See you later!
5/22/02: Ahem...please give this brief moment to say something. Um...thank you very much. 5/17/02: Ahh forget it. No one's gonna take over my site, no matter how much I plead them (the two people interested didn't know or want to learn HTML). So, I'm keeping the site and I'm going to continue to update it through possibly August and then post it for sale in the Star-Bulletin or something. For the time being, I updated that AIS band site so it now has 16 new photos. So, go look at them, they're not that bad. View them here. I'm planning to update sometime before school ends again so please wait around. 5/14/02: (Several hours later) I added a new photo gallery to the Faye Faye! birthday page, located here. Please go see it! I also did some minor updating to the entire feature, although it's nothing spectacular. The new gallery includes photos of the UH men's volleybal team! Oh...don't mind the giant picture below. It's of my friend K-line. Hehe. Also, in news of the site sale, I might not give it away just yet. I'm probably going to spend part of the summer adding everything I wanted to add to it, and then archiving it on another server or something. Ok, bye!
 5/09/02: Ok, joke's finally over. You should know by now that Faye Faye! was just a pretty large April Fool's joke that I was too lazy to take down. Oh well. Ok, I know I scared lots of people (*cough* Faye *cough*) with my little stunt over the past month, but a few people did catch on. So...I say to you...HAHA IF YOU FELL FOR IT! Nah, just kidding. Enjoyed it? If you missed the joke, you can click here to see the site in its full form. 5/09/02: Ok, joke's finally over.

Enjoyed it? If you missed the joke, you can click here to see the site in its full form. In other news, the content that was added during the reign of Faye Faye! was added to Kewlies!. This includes the material added and edited from the confuzzled chronicles, the memorable moments, the 'ohana, the Faye Faye! photo album, the updates to the 6th grade album, and the most recent feature I threw up. So, in a way, Faye Faye! still exists. You can click on the appropriate links to get to those pages. I've got a new section in the works, you can stick around for it if you want, as it should be up within a couple of weeks. In yet other news, it is downsizing time. I'm slowly creeping towards my 15 MB limit for GeoCities and although I want to upgrade, I don't think upgrading is worth it. I might shut down this site which receives very little popularity and barely any hits anyway. I can't actually update news anymore because...well...there's no way I can find news on this band mostly 'cause I'm not even a member of it anymore. However, if someone is willing to take over the site and keep it as your own, please e-mail an inquiry to me and I'll get back to you. Um...since I know most of the viewers of this site are not even attending AIS and what few students from AIS that do visit are going to be out of the school in less than two months anyway (and most of the Freshies I know hate Ms. Chun anyway...for what reasons I still don't understand). I'm begging someone to please take over the site because I need the space, am running out of things to throw up, and besides, half the people in the band don't like me anyway :P . One of the only reasons why the site is still up there is because I like the layout. Pretty kewl, huh? Anyway, if you are interested, please e-mail me and I'll give you the HTML files, their sources, and the rest of the content. I'll also give you some photographs of summer school 2001 which is kinda old now, but it's something. I also have a couple more progam covers to add. As far as band humor is concerned...well...right now most of my band humor is restricted to high school band (consisting of a certain senior clarinet section leader murdering a certain junior drum major...). Heck, I'll even donate this site to the band boosters! (actually I'd prefer to give the site to a member of the Band Booster club because they'd probably be more consistent in updates). I'll even go as far as setting you up a free account for the site to reside on, right here on this same server as well as updating the site logo with the new AIS band logo! I'm not asking for money (but if you'd like to donate to a worthy cause AKA me, then please feel free to! I need the cash...) because I just wanna see this site live. So anyway, please e-mail me! I DON'T WANNA SEE THE SITE ROT AWAY!! 3/15/02: Many new pictures added bringing the total figure to 19 for the 8th Grade Life album in the pictures section! Go look at it if you want. 48 pictures on the site, wow! 3/12/02: New pictures section! Look into the past at our 8th grade year at 'Aiea Intermediate School! Oh, and there is obviously a new layout of the site, or rather a new version of the old layout. Version 3.5 is here! Kewl. This version changes the colors and site images. I also updated the site stats, with pictures going up to 40 from 23 and site flames going up to 3 from 2. Ok, that's all. Bye! 3/7/02: I have my first feature up! It also doubles as a photo album, so please look! Sponsored in part by the Moana Pakipika Archives, lookie at May Day 1999 at Alvah Scott School! That was fun :D. So you have fun too! 3/4/02: All the pages are in the new layout. New updates to confuzzled chronicles, the memorable moments page, local kine shrines, pictures, quotables, and credits. Sorry, but the link to the music page is still dead. 2/27/02: Please note that all new website projects except for my Lamb Chop site are hereby cancelled. Sorry, but I need more time to myself and my wonderful friends, as well as this site and my other existing sites. I'M SICK OF THE INTERNET. Over the past month, my life has become twice as hectic. Aside from my regular classes, I've joined the judo team, became the official photographer of MCS, became the chairperson of an archiving group, and been offered several chair jobs for the next year. Also, I'm beginning development of my own branch of browser software based on Mozilla. I'm busy trying to get into Pearl City or Moanalua but it's getting harder and harder. However, there's giant chance I'll make it, so that's good. The volleyball players of 'Aiea have also started some sort of thing that I'm photographing, along with some Samoan dancers that enjoy having their pictures taken. Volleyball is cool and so is 'Aiea, therefore Na Ali'i volleyball is the best! Ok, so I admit this is an update that has nothing to do with the site but I'm bored at the moment and don't feel like doing biology homework. 2/25/02: Note to everyone: PLEASE LAY OFF THE E-MAIL AT HOKU_FAN@HOTMAIL.COM!!!! (that means especially you, Christine Siclot.) I'm getting sick of clearing out hundreds of e-mail every couple of days. I have three other addresses (innocent_lil_nephew@hotmail.com, sasami_is_kewl@yahoo.com, oz_the_werewol4@yahoo.com), could you please send me at those? And as for those sickening chain letters (*cough*Stacy Odquier*cough*), you can send me them, but please don't send me the sick, gross ones, or the ones that promise to donate 3 cents for the poor little girl who is dying of heart disease somewhere in Mongolia for everyone person I send it to, because that's impossible. AOL Time Warner, Microsoft, Lycos, and all those other big companies to not sponsor those events through e-mail, they do it directly on their huge media empires and through their portals (MSN, Netscape Netcenter, Lycos, Yahoo, etc.). I don't really mind chain letters, I just don't like getting them in large numbers. Thanks. 2/11/02: Ok, site cleaning day! The network has gotten three-sites smaller, though no sites have been added. There is one site that was removed that still exists, but it's permanently removed due to infringing on the network's rules. Also, I cleaned up the photo albums and edited a few pictures. 2/6/02: (Update An Hour After That) I took into consideration the complaints about the layout (they loved the image of Soyong but didn't like the yellow background. So, I reversed it: yellow text on a blue blackground. I like the old one better for some reason but oh well, as long as it incorporates yellow and blue, I'm happy. Welcome to layout version 3.2! It's not implemented on every page of the site yet because I don't have time, but expect it to be done when I'm not restricted to one hour internet usage periods! 2/6/02: (Update An Hour Later) Ok, apparently there's something wrong with the stupid guestbook therefore don't bother trying to use it right now. I'm going to change it soon but once again I'm just too busy and lazy right now. 2/6/02: Please read the new Terms of Use and Privacy Policy. It's for your own good, and you'll be safer. Mahalo! 1/30/02: 12 New photos, in one new album! These are of the Keoni-Nicole wars, back in 1999-2000 school year at Aiea Intermediate School. 7th Grade pics! NEW! HAHAHAHAHA! 1/27/02: New photos! New album! Six new photos are are in the pictures section, all of them of ex-7th graders, now 8th graders, class of 2006. Please go look at them, cause I'm not in any :). 1/16/02: Yeah! Redoing the site code in Notepad makes updating so much easier. Ok, here's my update! I have updated the Network, with one site removed and several added. Actually I updated it last month sometime but I was just too lazy to upload it till today. Please note that NO NEW MATERIAL has been added to the friends page, despite the fact that the page has been given a semi-new layout. Also, the Portal has a new look, new feel, and other stuff, although like the Network, this update was made last month so the material may be slightly outdated. Ok, that's all. 1/15/02: Ok, semi-huge update here. I changed the layout slightly (no more div or table body tags!) to get rid of most of the DHTML (except for some minor CSS), and therefore the layout is simpler. Meanwhile, there's new content on the following pages: the about me page, confuzzled chronicles, site map, `ohana, questions, and pictures. There are new layouts on the friends page, memorable moments, and confuzzled chronicles. So that's about all for now. 11/22/01: OMG! It's a mirable! I ACTUALLY ADDED PICTURES TO THE PICTURES SECTION! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! The section actually has content on it! NOW THE SITE CAN DIE HAPPY! 11/15/01: This is the new layout for the new Kewlies!, emerging after being in beta for about a week. This new layout was created in only one day out of PURE boredom. The new layout does not incorporate CSS or any form of DHTML besides div (wow been a long time). So the site should load faster. Like the picture of SoYong? She's cute isn't she? ^_^ Hehe she can be my site model or something. Soyong's my favorite cousin who's almost like a sister (Konae might get angry at me for saying that). With the new layout comes the death of the kollective section and the greatest miracle of all time--for the first time ever all the links work. Not all the sections are up but the links actually work. Also, he quotables section is still there but is back in construction mode because I refined the focus. I moved some of the quotes there into the memorable moments section. I'll be keeping this layout for at least another few weeks because I'm not gonna sit down and throw together another one.
