Yahari Ore no Seishun Rabu Kome wa Machigatteiru!!!

Sekali lagi, YAHARI ORE NO SEISHUN RABU KOME WA MACHIGATTEIRU! Hahaha, gue cinta banget sama anime ini sampai bela-belain ngapalin nama panjangnya (biasanya disingkat jadi Oregairu aja). Lagi ah, Yahari Ore no Seishun Rabu Kome wa Machigatteiru!!!!!!!! Hahaha :')

Gue baru aja menyelesaikan season ke-2 dari anime ini, lalu gue merasa perlu banget di-share haha. Ketika pertama kali direkomendasikan serial ini, untungnya gue lagi niat buat langsung cari anime-nya di Youtube. Gue biasa emang suka bandel, suka males nyari-nyari anime-nya biarpun udah dikasih tau lol. Terus pas gue nonton, gue merasa tertarik banget dengan tema anime-nya yaitu (menurut wiki) social psychology. Entah kenapa gue merasa Oregairu sangat mengingatkan gue sama Hyouka (yang juga bagus bangeet, misteri gitu tapi gak serem). Lalu Oregairu juga bergenre romance comedy, slice of life, dan school. Perfect combination for me :')

I am releasing a wordpress site!

I'm a fan of neat designs. Nevertheless, blogger often disappoints me for its lame mobile view. I once felt in love with blogger's mobile view, but not anymore..


I've been noticing that actually wordpress and tumblr offers better mobile looks. In the past few days, I have also been in difficult times while choosing new theme for my blog. They're all for one purpose and only one purpose: better mobile looks. However, I finally came to a conclusion that those custom templates failed miserably in fulfilling my needs.


I thought about moving my blog to wordpress.com, but after hours of trying with no luck. I gave up :)) So I decided to move all of my post to wordpress without closing my blogger and blog on two blogs simultaneously. You can check my new wordpress blog here! And believe me when I say it has fresher look both on dekstop and mobile site.


Ain't those beautiful?!

I'm so pleased with the mobile looks! YES!

So from now on, I'll try to blog on both websites. I realized that even blogger, in many aspects, has many things that can't be replaced. After all, my blogger blog has received quite a number of views, how can I shut it down? :')

AdSense for more meet-ups.

So, this is actually rather stupid?

The past few days, I've been busying myself (not sure it is an actual vocab, though.) to do this and that to my blog. For example, I've been experimenting with my blog's theme. I fell in love really hard with some blog's mobile looks.. But yep, that project has been cancelled due to fatal failure. Having my desired theme on blogger seemed impossible.

That's why suddenly I came up with a new idea. You see, we've heard that there are so many people getting paid by blogging. So I thought, I wanted to be like them! And the answer is: AdSense.

I don't really get the technical thing anyway, but at least I know that when people click on the ads shown on my blog, I get paid. As simple as that! You get paid, you have more money, you can have more meet-ups with friends! #logic

Without waiting any longer, on June 16th (that's H+2 SIMAK UI :') wish me luck!) I decided to sign up for an AdSense account. This is kind of interesting, since the payment can be sent to your home without the need of a bank account. But because of that, I need to wait for my AdSense account to be approved.

About two days ago, I finally got a mail from Google! It said that my account has been proved~~~

I can see the smell of money!!!! lol.

I set up an ad right away.

Nothing shows up on my blog.

WHAT THE...

Please pay attention on that blank space!!!
The blank space is where an Ad is supposed to show up. And nothing to be seen there... I got so messed up that I read the guidelines over and over, I googled for a solution but nooooo there was completely nothing.

It took quite a long time for me to realize, that actually Google needs to send me a PIN mailer via posts to my address until an actual Ad can be shown. :) (And actually, from the first pic above, Google has said to me that no ads will be shown, it will show a blank space until my account is FULLY activated. How stupid of me..) I always thought PIN is something you get via SMS.. This shit is so real wohooo.

And now I'm so excited waiting for my PIN mailer!
