!NOTICE TO ALL VISITORS!:


MAJOR apology to everyone for basically slipping off the face of the earth and not even replying any of your messages in the last....too many months. Sen and I left Cafe Au Lait on a "Hiatus" to basically work with our school lives and come back to CAFE once we've sorted everything out, and then it'd be all fun and games again with our new design website :)....or rather, that was the plan. College and Uni definitely bogged us down, but I mean -its been months, and we still haven't even taken down our "HIATUS" label, why? Well, besides being busy, it was almost like our motivation was zapped out of us.

The unthinkable occurred -we didn't find our usual passion and interest in web/graphics designing. After designing websites and graphics for years (since our high school and middle school days) -it just wasn't as easy any more. it seemed more like work than fun to open and run a design website.So yea -we haven't touched CAFE AU LAIT since April, i believe. And only now I've finally been able to write a little something here to anyone who still checks up on this website.

Although Sen and I have been pretty busy and inspirational-ly and motivational-ly empty, we still couldn't find the heart to close down our little CAL (cafe-au-lait), who hasn't even been properly opened! I mean, what kind of injustice would that be? I'll admit that earlier in the year we both felt a bit more stressed when running a graphics site (BLASPHEMIC) due to pressures of having to correct so many of our coding "errors" and "unprofessionality" in our website. I think from then on it turned into work, rather then an online outlet for our creativity and interests.

So now... I've been thinking, and i do really want to bring CAL back. I haven't been anywhere in the graphics design community for months, so I don't know which of my old affiliates are still around, but i'll still open up CAL sometime. It might not be a super professional graphics website, or a huge design portfolio, or even a website with proper coding. I don't know if i'll be able to constantly update with more graphics, or if it'll turn into a blog, portfolio, or just a place put my thoughts. Whatever the case is, it'll be open as Ruksi&Sen's personal website, and won't be pressurized to turn into something else.

If you actually read my entire rant, thank you <3 Please leave a comment in the tag board, i promise to actually reply now.

Even though I haven't been anywhere in the graphics design community online, I still have my other online pages:

Truth be told, I was actually thinking of turning Cafe Au Lait into a tumblr website...and that option is still lingering in my head.

If you need to contact me, see my personal blog here: rockinruksi.tumblr.com


And why yes, I do love having my website pages ultra messy, like how I just made this one ;P.


We're still on Hiatus

Yes, Café au lait is still on hiatus! Things are a bit delayed, so I thought I should put up a nice hiatus/opening soon layout ;) -and it features Tamaki and Kyoya from Ouran Host club! <3

Any way, Sen it still busy with school and finals, and even though I'm now on break, i'm going out of town for about a week. When I come back i'm planning to work harder on opening up this new site :D

Any way, we will be posting A LOT more down here. I'm hoping to write a little summary on how Café au lait will look, how we plan to organize the new website, different new features, contests, and more! So do drop by, leave a message, and see our news plans =]
