a little internet corner filled with my interests and squishy everyday https://sepelathons.neocities.org/ Tue, 06 Oct 2026 00:00:00 +0000 1440 The Flip Phone Webring is now open too (link here)! Similar to what happened with my Penspinning Webring, I decided to reuse some of my drawn assets to create the base widgets! In the future, I wish to add more colours, models, and other customisations features such as personal images. Thank you again to Petra Pixel and Webring for the infrastructure! https://sepelathons.neocities.org/about Tue, 06 Oct 2026 00:00:00 +0000 Like my business site, I decided to integrate a sitemap on Search Console! This is mostly a standard process I follow for web development, but I did want some indexing for reviews in particular to extend reach and help others out. So far, I added 4 G3 reviews (ES G3, Monacho G3, Eban G3, Tetora G3) based on a standard assessment structure, and I plan to add my other mods whilst I settle on a video framework in parallel. The photoblog has also been updated for this month of September too! I think the most frustrating thing throughout test season is having a roadmap here that I can’t execute immediately because of other priorities! Having ideas but not being able to realise something tangible feel like fruitless fantasising. It feels like I’m lazy and imagining an unrealised outcome is kind of meaningless, so I try to work on little dynamic milestones towards my goals here as much as I can too! https://sepelathons.neocities.org/about Fri, 25 Sep 2026 00:00:00 +0000 The Penspinning Webring is now opened (link here)! I decided to part from the button design to instead create widgets based on real pens and mods used in the hobby instead. Thank you LJ Justice for becoming the first member! For the first deployment I reused my Dr Grip and Dr KT assets for the widgets, where arrows are displayed to navigate to fellow neighbours. In the future, I plan to add more mod designs and customisation opens, such as being able to choose colours or specific parts. Thank you to Petra Pixel and Webringu for providing the infrastructure! https://sepelathons.neocities.org/about Thu, 10 Sep 2026 00:00:00 +0000 An RSS Feed has finally been integrated to allow some form of notifying for future updates. Although I am fairly busy with ongoing University projects, my order of priority is to start to push more reviews on the different topics! This will allow me to create a foundation for when I wish to adopt entries into future videos. The infrastructure for this is ongoing and I have several plans! https://sepelathons.neocities.org/about Sun, 16 Aug 2026 00:00:00 +0000 Parting from the early tables layout, I decided to return to some semantics! Although I had plans for creating a layout that was more nostalgic, my early vision for the site ultimately settled on this kind of minimalism that I embrace (sorry magia uwu). In the future, I want to continue playing around with making older styles, but as I've always been taught in adjacence to modern design practices, it will likely be separate from this one! https://sepelathons.neocities.org/about Fri, 17 Jul 2026 00:00:00 +0000 I finally added the illustration cluster near satori-chan! This means you can now navigate to the blog you want to read through hovering and clicking the images! Hovering above an element in the homepage also presents a dialogue box so you are aware of what you are clicking. Although I wanted the homepage to be a bit more interactive and unique, something like Michiko Sakurai's game interfaces, this was my original vision for the website and I'm really happy I was finally able to integrate it. Project: SepelaThons has finally been briefed and additional external links were added to the about page. The gallery page has transformed to a photobook page and mimics the idea of the microblog I wanted to add. These will be updated every month to showcase my slice of life! I plan for this to be a base that eventually shares libraries with other works or the CV collection. Each blog page in the bloglist has now been populated with a highlight of future topics that I wish to write about! In terms of new entries, I wrote about the process of how I made PJ's Birthday Collab and I also added my previous KYF39 Keitai review. There were some issues on targeted sections regarding resizing on mobile interfaces, but it has been resolved. In the future, the current priority is still the consideration of external image hosting! Otherwise I also want to add a CV Library page that updates from my playlist, alongside a gallery for my penspinning combos and mods. https://sepelathons.neocities.org/about Sat, 11 Jul 2026 00:00:00 +0000 The semester finally ended!! Engineering appears to have consumed a lot of my time again! It always feels like there's something I can do productively, and I sometimes find it difficult to allow time for breaks or casual pursuits. 'Project: Sepewaa' was created after all to address this and to allow myself to live more in the present! Even in my hobbies, I can't seem to help but find ways to try to do things that also benefit me in the future, but its something I love doing too! I've been having to simulate feelings and memorise of friends have yet to recover though. Other than that, a break means I can finally update my site, and work on a PSO26 edit! The storyboarding would eat up the rest of the break but we will see if I can write more entries! Today, I finally made my own button and added some of my site inspirations. The indie web is seriously creative and it really activates my inner front end longing after months of VHDL. You might notice that I also have a section on webrings! I really want to add a penspinning webring considering there's already a few ps sites here in neocities. So, PBB, Domo, Wanadoo, and Walbur, I will knock on your doors at some point maybe (uwu). I made a draft keitai webring design too since Chewyro and ThatTakashi have sites here too. I will come for you all soon maybe!! For the future, I want to add the rest of my illustrations to the homepage, surrounding satori-chan. These will be hyperlinks to link to the respective blog pages. I also want to add an 'other' category for the blogs which can house topics like mechanical pencils reviews or whether I beated the market on my satellite portfolio! I'm also considering adding a microblog because these docu are long yet not blog sizes, and maybe I can also share my slice of nyan! https://sepelathons.neocities.org/about Mon, 06 Jul 2026 00:00:00 +0000 I wasn't able to update the documentation earlier, but the 'nya' page has been replaced with the 'guestbook' page. It was technically just a placeholder because I wanted a page dedicated to just playing around with those little web widgets (ehe)... For now I really wanted a guestbook so there's a base interactive element! I ended up using ata book for my one and I added my Midori MD notebook as the icon. Thank you to Instinct and PJ for leaving little comments! For the next update, I really want to add those squishy 88x31 buttons and also consider going through several webrings to add! Oh and I also definitely need an external image host! (nya) https://sepelathons.neocities.org/about Thu, 16 Apr 2026 00:00:00 +0000 This version is the really early base of the website, taking the most fundamentally necessary elements of my Low Fidelity Storyboarding to be incorporated. These include the homepage, blog pages, about page, nya page, prototyping, and my little digital illustrations! The process began when I needed to have a place to put my keitai (japanese flip phone) how-tos. As one of the first in NZ to try one, I received many questions about the process. I ended up writing a tutorial on a pastebin but it was very inelegant. Along with my penspinning mod reviews, keyboard thoughts, nihongo docu, and other many interests, I felt I needed to make a site eventually! Currently, I have a Business Portfolio website but it’s more so oriented to my IRL. The design was very modernist and I thought the spirit was at odds with the other half of my inner world, so I decided making a website would be a better choice! The biggest hurdle was finding the right aesthetic. There is just so many that I love, my interest starting from a liminal space thread. This later branched to frutigooning, weirdcore fascination, and medicalcore to yami kawaii menhera!! Different parts of me would occupy different aesthetics and ideas, but sepela won out with this black and white, minimal but still kina squishy thingy! (awjlsdkjfklsdj) Nonetheless, a goal is reached through an effective deployment, be it one not completely satisfactory. For future deployments, I do wish to integrate more interesting designs to make it more interactive and visually compelling! Other updates and more interests may be added! https://sepelathons.neocities.org/about Fri, 10 Apr 2026 00:00:00 +0000
