As you can see I’ve been making a lot changes to my website. The search bar at the top is now a customized google search bar, there’s a donate button at the top right, I now have share buttons on pages and posts, there’s a new banner at the top, you now have to log into Samoan-Ninja.com in order for your votes counted and some more hidden code was added to optimize my site.

Everything is coming together but I’m kind of nervous because if I need to update wordpress or the theme, all my settings might erase and if it does I’ll have to reconfigure everything again.

I think the next change I’ll do is have the banner at the top rotate each time the page is refreshed. I’m going to go and take more pictures for the banner, and more than likely each picture will have green in it. You know that’s how I roll.

Aside from the website updates, I pretty much got a new job working at Towbin Dodge. It was a shoo-in because, well you know. I’m thankful for it, and I’ll be working as a Key Tracker. Yup, I track all keys that go in and out of the dealership, I’m part security, so I’ll be wearing a security uniform, yup! Pay isn’t that good but as the titles says “I’mma Have Money To Blow”, so maybe I might get that xbox 360, or a new computer.

So, what has my diet been looking like? Well, I’ve normalized my weight back to 335LBS. I was close to breaking past the 3teens but since I broke my fast, I’ve been eating normal. So what’s going to be my routine? Well, I’m going back to the good ol’ fashioned diet and exercise routine. I’m going on a low-carb diet, and I’ll be doing cardio, and weightlifting. I’ve also got acouple of experimental workout routines in plan too (I’ll fill you in on those later).

Well that’s all I have to share for now. If what I said in some area didn’t make sense, well that’s because i didn’t go back and try to proof it. I just said it as how I typed it, and I know somewhere I messed up, but I’m hella tired. That’s it and that’s all, LAtEZ.

I canceled the 31 days project.

Who knew it would be difficult to update for 31 days straight. It turned out to be one of those easier said than done type deals, and in the end I was a little disappointed in myself. I know now to keep things short and simple, it also didn’t help that I was fasting.

I’m still going to be doing other projects but they won’t go on more than a week. If I need an extension on a project, then I’ll just add however many days I need to finish the job. Also, I’m going to do only one project at a time. This way I can focus my attention on one thing and get quality content out rather than trying to juggle between multiple projects and posting not so worthy content.

In other news, Samoan-Ninja.com loads even faster (excluding the gallery). Go ahead and start clicking around, you’ll notice things load right up. Thanks to the WordPress plugin WP Super Cache for making it fast. It’s also promised that I can even take a huge hit from digg.com, although I’m not too eager to test that out yet, lol.

Well, that’s all I got to say now… LAtEZ.

I wrote a very short article and was debating if I should post it here or make it its own page. After thinking too hard on something very simple I just made it its own page in the MY TWO CENTS section, titled “You Remind Me Of A…”. Find the link up top under ARTICLES or click here to read it.

Oh and starting December 1st to the 31st, I’m going to take a picture of myself, and things I did throughout the day. It’s one of those projects to get some creative juices flowing, and to start filling up my website with content.

I’ll post the updates here on the front page, and when the project finishes up, you can find the entire version in the photography section at the top under projects.

This is the Samoan-Ninja signing off… LAtEZ.

I found my old tape recorder that I used to play around with when I was a kid. I only recorded a small clip to the computer to share with you guys, on the clip it’s Shooter, J-Miah and Me as kids and being goofy.

Shooter – Asking for his jacket
Samoan-Ninja – Stalling to give Shooter his jacket
J-Miah – Singing wheels on the bus

Samoan-Ninja.com is now being hosted by fatcow.com. Reloading everything has been smooth and the future with this web host looks good.

I was finally able to restore a backup of my posts but it’s an old backup. So, late 2008 to mid 2009 content are forever missing. Videos, pictures, and links are somewhat broken. I’ll try and do my best in fixing them.

I also went through and deleted some posts I made because they were either really vague, uninteresting, or just dumb. Also, some posts I don’t even know what the hell I was even talking about. Sad.

So what’s left? Well, I need to get my gallery back up and running, I also need to retype my articles, and then I need to reconfigure and test somethings out.

Keep checking back. Later.
