06/25/04Welcome to a brand new year celebrating the 2nd anniversary of Sakura Forever!!! Well, I think I got everything down for now. The focus for now, until the next layout change, is going to be on media. I plan, over the summer, to insert lots more things. Pictures, music, lyrics, etc. And trust me, there's a lot of media on my computers. Well, here are the things that are happening and what has changed from the last layout. Enjoy! I don't know when my next layout will be, but in the meantime, I'll be working on my Chobits site. Keep your eyes for that too because it's opening on July 25, 2004! Check it out! *Nice purple-blue layout. Banner created by co-webmistress Laura. THANK YOU!!

6/13/04:Wow. It's been a long while. But I finally finished all my exams! These past few days, I've been working on a new layout for this site. I realize that it's a new month, but there will be no new background music or poll until the layout change at June 25, 2004. ^^ And my birthday is tomorrow! This is the best month ever! Well, there are no updates today. So take care and don't forget to check out the new layout on June 25, 2004!! *NONE 5/24/04:Well, my first major set of tests are over now and now I'm studying for finals. In addition, I've been working hard on the next layout, to be released June 25, 2004. In the mean time, I'm also considering to build another site to be released on July 25, 2004. I hope to have screen shots and lots of images on that new site. Can't Wait!! Oh! And lots of things have been going on lately. Check it out. *New contest by Saffy! Click here to find out more!
5/6/04:Hello again! This is the longest time I've gone without updating. I've been trying to keep my grades up. I must have excellent grades in order for me to go to Otakon this summer!! Wow, it's a brand new month once again! New background music! Poll? Unlikely.. Oh! I'm also working on the new layouts for both my sites. I'm also planning to open a new site this summer! So watch out for that! *New Background Music! (Old one can be downloaded!)
4/5/04:Hi everyone! It's a brand new month! Therefore, there's new background music! I'll think of a new poll and hopefully post it up soon. I have Spring Break! Anyways, I hope that during this time, I can pay more attention to my sites. And now, a few updates.. *New Background Music! (Old one can be downloaded!)
3/30/04:Ha! You know, it's near the end of the month and I realized that I never changed the background music for this month! Ahh!! My apologies.. Anyways, I've done some link updates and got this cool button from Sparkling Angels! Thanks! *New button posted on the Affiliation Page.

1/24/04:I hope everyone had a Happy Chinese New Year! Anyways, there's not much to update now. My co-webmistress, Laura, has found three MIDI's that she thought I should put up. My other co-webmistress, Julie, has informed me of some affiliates that have either shut down or stopped updating, so I'll post that up soon. Thank you both of you!! *One gift added on Gifts Page 8 by Kat!
1/20/04:First of all, I thought this update was already posted eight days ago! However, it seems that it was never up. Then my exams came, so I'm still busy studying. In recent news, many sites have changed their URL's. I have finally finished my homework and am now studying for exams. Anyways, there's really not much to update except for the following changes. *Sakura Magic changed its URL! (Note: This link is currently not working and is under investigation.)
1/4/04:I'm heading back to school tomorrow and I haven't done any homework! So before I start working, I decided to post a few updates. *Background Music changed. Old one may be downloaded at the Music Page or Downloads Page.
1/1/04:Happy New Year! I hope everyone had a great time. I've been busy doing stuff for both my sites. I'm also way behind on my homework, so I'll probably get started on that first. Oh, but another important notice!! A person named Kat is selling two complete sets of brand new, in mint condition, Cardcaptor Sakura Dolls. Each set has 6 dolls including: Li/Syaoran, Meilin, Pink Kitty Sakura, Green Fairy Sakura, Blue Warrior Sakura, and Summer School Sakura. If you're interested, e-mail loveofsakura1110@yahoo.com. Anyways, here's what I've been doing. *Kat is selling CCS Dolls. Visit Sweet Dreams for more information or e-mail her at loveofsakura1110@yahoo.com.
12/25/03:Welcome to Sakura Forever!!! Version 6.0! Like the green layout? I think it looks awesome! As you can see, there are many changes to this site. Most of this site is programmed by one JavaScript file, which makes it extremely easy to add, delete, and edit links. This site is also programmed by one Cascading Style Sheet, which makes it easy to change colors very quickly. Because of these shortcuts, it didn't take long to program this layout. The layout for the next version is being developed at this very moment, although it not to be released anytime soon. Anyways, please enjoy your visit. Below are a list of changes, ones that I can remember, that are different from the last layout. Thank you for visiting and I hope you come back soon! *New green table/div layout!
12/21/03:This will be my last update until the next layout, so I'll keep it very short. Until then! *Added three gifts on Gifts Page 6 and Gifts Page 7! Thank you all!!
12/20/03:Another affiliate has returned! Eveyone please visit StarCardcaptor!!! In addition, the webmistress is hosting a contest! Maybe I might join in if I have the time! Anyways, the link for the contest is updated at the Contests Page. Don't forget!!!!! The next layout change is in five days on December 25, 2003! *Welcome back, StarCardcaptor!
12/7/03:I have recieved one entry for my FanFic Contest. It'll be posted when the deadline is reached. Speaking of which, I've decided to extend the deadline to December 31, 2003 to give people longer time to write. In addition, my affiliate Amy's Fan Station has moved to a new server and is now called Fan Kingdom. Speaking of affiliates, I have one new one. Meet Sugoi Anime! *One contest entry.
12/4/03:There are a lot of things to do and I am falling behind. I've decided that today, I'll just make the most important updates and keep them short and sweet. I hope that I'll get another chance to update next week as well. *Changed Background Music. 11/27/03:I wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving!! Let's see. Besides being thankful for family and other important stuff, I am thankful for my site. I am thankful that I have something to update, even though it's not big. I am thankful for all those who signed my guestbook (I have read all entries). I am thankful for those who vote for my Monthly Poll (You've been a great help!). I am thankful for those who have been in my contests. I am thankful for my friends and affiliates. And speaking of which, let me welcome Sakura Dream Blossoms, my latest affiliate!! *My latest affiliate: Sakura Dream Blossoms!
11/23/03:Green. It's the color of my next layout. I know it's going to be Christmas, but it doesn't matter. So now you know what I've been doing. I've also been preparing for another site!! Yes. Another one...even though Pokemon Forever!!! takes up a lot of time already. *Anime Institution has changed its URL!
11/17/03:^^ It's been a long while! However, if you looked at the Sakura Forever!!!: FanFiction Contest Page, you'd see that it has totaly changed (So I have been updating!!). In recent news, I've been slacking off on everything (Homework, site work, television, games, etc). However, I manage to do some stuff for Pokemon Forever!!!. And for this site, I joined in this new site known as the Sakura Order. The button is already added, only to this page. Until next time! I have a lot planned for the winter!!! *Joined the Sakura Order!!! A banner rotation site for anime sites!! It's like a "site of the moment" kinda thing!!!
11/1/03:Hello November! Time for monthly updates, as well as the Sakura Forever!!!: FanFiction Contest!!! Check it out now!! *Replaced one button on Affiliates Page. 10/29/03:Ha! Twelve days! It seems like my updates are getting farther and farther apart. Not to worry. A new month is headed. Plus, my contest is coming soon. Just need to think of a topic and rules, and I'm all set. In the meantime, here are some things you should see. *A new job posted on the Job Application Page!
10/17/03:Well, it's been ten days, but most of my major projects are finished. The small, but importants have been stacking up, so let us get to the updates. But first, for your information, Anime Wallpapers has finally updated after nine months!! And I've decided what contest I am doing and am preparing the awards. Also, be on the lookout for new pages. One more thing! My Pokemon site will be update tomorrow with new episode guides. If you want to check that out tomorrow, visit Pokemon Forever!!!. *My latest affiliate: Sakura & Li's Dream Cloud!!
10/7/03:Well, Cherry BlossOm has decided to close. Until that comes, the link will remain active, so visit now! In other news, the Updates Page has been successfully completed for Year 2. Yay! Both Updates Page featured new featrues for convienance. Check them out today! And a Special treat, with the emphasis on Special, I have restored two images to better quality on Special Page 5!!! *Affiliate closing.
10/5/03:YAY!! I just realized that I finally hit 10,000 hits!! Based on my calculations, this happened a while back, but I think it's proper to celebrate. So now, I'm building a contest which anyone can enter! Expect that up by next month though. But not to worry, there is still plenty to update. For example, these: *My latest affiliate: Cardcaptor Sakura Dreamland!!
10/1/03:Time for some well deserved, overdue, and monthly updates!! Yay! As you can plainly see, I've been slacking off. But if you observe on my Pokemon site, it's going quite well. I still wish I got more help though. Anyways, on with the updates. *New Background Music!! (Can be downloaded along with other months!!) 9/18/03:Well, I inserted a link to my other site only on this page. On the next layout change, it'll be on every page, so it won't be much of a problem. Anyways, all the image problems have benn fixed, so the stuff and files have been moved and restored. Now, I'm moving more files to conserve space. *Put up a button link (only on this page) to my Pokemon site, Pokemon Forever!!!.
9/16/03:I found the six pictuers that was deleted!! I've moved them into a new account. In fact, I moved most of my pictures onto a new account, one that will work unlike the last time. However, wallpapers are still not up yet. Therefore, the following pages have been updated. *Updated links on the following pages:
9/13/03:
First, I know that I haven't been updating for a while. School work is harder than I expected and I'm still slipping on my grades, so I decided to update less than what I usually do. Second, that right-click that was supposed to be disabled since the first, is not going to happen. Therefore, you may right-click through out this layout. However, expect that to change on the next layout. Third, I know that the download links to my newly constructed files to be a big bust. Some of you are able to download because all you need to do is sign in with a Hotmail or MSN e-mail. However, not everyone has a Hotmail or MSN address; therefore, the files will be moved again. It seems so bad since all that space goes to waste. Fourth, some files have been restored, listed on the following page. Links have been restored to most download links, such as music (Including background), and FanFictions. Every fixed page from the previous update, 8/31/03, will be listed down below. Fifth, SIX images have been lost in the Images Page. The first six were accidently deleted, and all the back-ups that came with it, when different hosts were being tested. I will try and reconstruct them; however, they will not be the originals with the same size and amount of quality. I would seem that this is the biggest slip up in Sakura Forever!!! history. *Updated links on the following pages:
9/11/03:
9/3/03:While I was updating, my computer disconnected, and I didn't feel like reconnecting again. So I decided to pospone updating. Asides from monthly updates, the big Affiliate Page update is complete!! However, recent changes in URL's and sites made me consider to again, create another update for that page. Some URL's are different, some sites went down, some don't display links, some don't update anymore. In fact, it was the recent URL changes that took so long. Hmm. Should I change it now or wait until the next layout? In other news, Michael's Favorites has reached 250,000+ hits. Congrats on that accomplishment. The site is currently hosting a contest, also updated. Until next time..hopefully I'll complete something good around here. *New Monthly Poll! 8/31/03:Success!! I have successfully completed my major English assignment. Now I must complete my other assignments. In the mean time, I've moved more files to conserve space. Which means that I changed the download links to some files on many different pages. This does not affect the site at all, except for saving lots of webspace, which is a good thing!! My affiliate update is complete and will be posted up tomorrow along with much needed monthly updates. *Updated links on the following pages:
8/25/03:School starts tomorrow for me. *sigh* It seems like I didn't do what I wanted to do for Sakura Forever!!! this summer. And once again, lesser update. I don't have a computer class this year, so I won't update in class. And it doesn't seem like a good time to open my Pokemon site. Pokemon Forever!!! is now opened!! Even though, the data isn't uploaded yet. In fact, no data has been uploaded yet, so there is NO information there. However, info will be put up as pages are converted. By the time I'm through, it'll be one of the largest databases on Pokemon. Back to Sakura Forever!!! Couple of awards and a gift placed up. Got them a while back. Many contest ended, so that's updated too. Check out my Pokemon site, even though it has no info... *Visit Pokemon Forever!!!
8/22/03:I added an extension to my counter, in case it reaches to 10,000 faster than I think it will. A new FanFic has been added!!!!! Check it out on the Fan Fiction Page!! Say! A contest would be a perfect thing to have right about now!! Building that page soon! Plus, I've run out of webspace so I moved a lot of files to my MSN server. Don't worry, this won't affect the content of the site. Hopefully, it'll make things better. Expect to have some pages changed for linking to the files. Oh! and don't forget to check out my job application page! I only have one application now! Must get working on school work. See ya!! *Counter extended!!!
8/20/03:A Job Application page is here!!! Contest page updated severly. Actually, just some contests started, began voting, or still voting, so I moved things around. I got couple of stufff, I'll add in a few days. OH! Pokemon Forever!!! will open it's doors in a few days!! YAY!! Plus, Sakura Forever!!! is about to feature its 10,000 visitor!!!!! This is so awesome!! *NEW: Job Application Page.
8/18/03:I have a new affiliate! Plus, my site and Pokemon site are doing well!! Job application page will be up soon. Contest in the making! Other contests ending soon! Have fun!! *Latest affiliate: Anime Intuition.
8/12/03:More updates. My work is done (Except for school). Be on the look out for a few new, but not so important unless you want to help around the site, pages. Also, be ready to look for changes in the Affiliates page. I'm going to start building a new site and/or host a contest. I'm currently making awards. It should be up by next week. S+S Shrine's contest is about to end. Michael's Cardcaptors' contest is about to begin. Contest, contests, contests. Just check out the Contests Page!! *Contest Page updated.
8/6/03:Well, more updates. Nothing real important to talk about. The next layout is still in development. Found some new features that could be added to this site. The next layout for this site is planned for release on Christmas Day. Also, my Pokemon site is planning to open on August 25, 2003 regardless if I'm ready or not. And school starts on August 26 for me, so I guess I won't be that ready. Oh well. *I joined a new topsite (Which is not going to be loaded on any pages except this one). *A contest link has been updated. *One contest link has been updated and the deadline extended. *One contest added!! *Affiliate link updated.
8/5/03:Yay!! I finally got a new monitor!! Although, I did put a big dent in my savings account, I hope this montior won't blow up so easily as my old one. Anyways, I've delayed updating long enough. Time to get back to work. *New Background Music
8/2/03:Yesterday, I was going to update. However..my computer monitor blew up. Now I'm stuck with a computer without anyway of seeing what I do, so using it would be pointless until I get a new monitor. You're probably wondering, how can you update now if your monitor blew up yesterday? I'm at the library. And if I update there, it would be insecure. Plus most of my files are on my computer anyways. The time to get a new monitor might take a while since my type is a discontinued model. So as I find a monitor and find how I'm going to pay for it, all affiliate and award applications are on hold. You may still submit them, however they would be disregarded since I can't see!! Also, I won't be checking my e-mail that often. With all my accounts, I'm pretty sure that my inbox will be clogged by the time I return. Sakura Forever!!! will be on pause. There will be no further updates until my monitor is fixed. Wish me the best of luck... 7/27/03:One small update today. Also! Voting for Sakura's World's Contest begins tomorrow. Voting for Izzy's Banner Competition ends August 2. *
7/22/03:I should have placed these update two weeks ago!! I forgot about the former applications that I accepted. I'm posting them up now. Please note, these are very delayed. *Latest award winner from July 6th: Blushing Sakura!!
7/21/03:My, my. Such a long time has it been. You'd think summer would give plenty of time to update like back then in the early days of Sakura Forever!!!, huh? I've been so caught up in my video games, television, and schoolwork (Yeah, work in the summer) that I forgot about my site!! Well, at least I have some basis on the next layout. Still being worked out. What a mess most pages are right now. Need help. I might make a job application soon. Now that I plan to get another site up, I'd really love help!! Trying to get my act together, I've realized how many sites have changed! Everyone's moving all of a sudden! So far, a total of five sites moved since last time I checked! Need to update URL's. Oh, what to do? Better yet, what should I do first? *In hopes to get my act together, I've joined the Jury of SLG's contest.
7/5/03:Hope everyone had a happy Independence Day!! FYI! Contests page is a real mess, so I'm cleaning it out now. Also, the Monthly Poll has changed. Thanks all for voting! Enjoy!! *Added two gifts on Gifts Page 6. 6/30/03:Well it's about time for some major updates. First, totally not Cardcaptor related, I got a cell phone and programmed two different tones on it! Yay! I'm a musician! Next, I lost the S+S Shrine Tournament. Third, two new sites are up to vote there, so the Vote GateWay page is reopened and converted to this layout! Fourth, two major contests are up now. The link is posted on the Contests page and below. Next, an affiliate's URL has been updated. Finally, the links to three contests have been either updated or removed. *
6/25/03:Welcome to Sakura Forever!!! Version 5.0!! Today is the day of my ONE-YEAR ANNIVERSARY for Sakura Forever!!! Since it's summer, I'll have more time to update. I've already planned a whole bunch of stuff to be added. Contests, TopSites, Images, etc. So many new function, so little time to explain. All is explained at the About The Site page. Another layout is being designed even though a new one is already here! Also, my Pokemon site is pending to open soon. Anyways, I hope you enjoy your visit. Come back soon!! And enjoy the wondrous updates. Another update will come soon. I have some unfinished stuff I left out for some updates. Enjoy!! *7500+ HITS!!! THANK YOU ALL!!!
