This post might sound rude, but I'm getting a little irritated. Please keep in mind that I work 30 hours a week, I have a life AND another Degrassi site. That alone might make me a bit behind on putting the episode links up. Also, my laptop is a piece of shit and my WMM takes 3 hours to save a tagged episode for some reason. To answer your question... YES I have to tag the episodes. It helps me get more visitors. Jenny has been awesome and posting un-tagged links in my cbox. ALWAYS CHECK THE CBOX. It's there for a reason. Sometimes, I'm able to get on my mom's computer to tag episodes (they only take 20 minutes to tag on her's)... but if I'm not, you'll just have to wait. Some episodes, we're getting earlier than we're supposed to so you guys should be thankful for that. I'm posting this because I'm sick of things in the cbox like "where's the new episode?" or "you're slow". You guys should be thankful that I'm putting my money out for this site for YOU GUYS. I could easily just save my money and be selfish. But, no I'm doing this for you all, so all I ask for is a little respect. Also... please don't spam the new im box with these questions because you will be ignored. Alright, my rant is over now lol.

New layout from an awesome affie, xBeatBox.. thanks so much Chelsea! First order of business... I'm SO sorry for my laziness this week. I'm definitely paying for it now, believe me lol. For some reason, it's taking 2-3 HOURS to tag an episode... I'm not really sure why. I can only do one at a time too, so it's VERY time consuming. I made sure to wake up at a decent hour today to get this shit done. I have two hours until work... it's not going to be completely finished, but I got a good head start on it, right? BIGGEST THANKS goes out to Jenny... she's been posting the links for me in my absence. You are an angel, thank you! (:

Yay for new layout! Thank you to DiscoIsDead.Org for this awesome Gwen Stefani layout. Few small changes I'm making that I wanna make you all aware of here. I have NOT removed my affiliates. I feel like it would be better to have them all on one page to make things easier on me. It's very tedious to have to update links and such on every single page when only this page and the Degrassi page are the active ones. If this is a problem for any of my affies, please let me know and I will remove you from my list. It will be much easier for me to update one page rather than 10 or so. I've mentioned it many times before, but I have a job and a life, as well as still recovering from my knee injury. Also, I have removed the games page. Didn't really feel like it was necessary to have it anymore, so poof it's gone lol. I have also added my Tumblr link. I follow many Degrassi related pages and reblog many of their entries, so feel free to follow me! If you haven't checked out my Degrassi message board, I recommend you do so! We've just begun our Boiling Point mixer, which will last throught the entire Boiling Point event. Just click on the message board link to get started today!

First off, I wanna apologize to my affies that have been posting in the cbox this week. Long story short, I slipped on a wet floor in a restaurant and hurt my knee pretty bad. I was in the hospital on Saturday and I've been in bed since then because I've been having trouble walking. My laptop decided to stop working, as well. Just my luck, eh? I'm updating links and such after I post this and again... I'm VERY sorry for the delay. Second, thank you to the person who posted on my Formspring about episode 221/222... I'm tagging that episode as I type this. The biggest news of all is that Degrassi Takes Manhattan premieres TOMORROW on MuchMusic in Canada. Who's excited?!?!?!? lol. I work until 10pm eastern time tomorrow, so I will be looking for the movie as soon as I get home. Season 10 starts Monday in Canada, as well. PLEASE NOTE: CANADA WILL ONLY BE AHEAD OF THE US NEXT WEEK. TeenNick will be airing DTM on Monday, and then episodes on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. The week after, TeenNick will only be airing episodes Monday-Thursday. Same for MuchMusic. Please remember that I have a job and a life.... uploading episodes 4 days a week will be difficult for me, so please be patient! If you continuously post in the cbox or whatever that I didn't post the new episode... you will be ignored. Not trying to be rude, but like I said... I have a job and I have a life. I'll also be searching for a new layout when I can, as well :)
Wednesday 6/16/10
Hey everybody! It's about damn time I did an update, huh? lol. First things first, I just did an affie sweep and I was very displeased to see that I went from 42 affiliates to 27. What happened guys? Sites were down or didn't have my link at all. I have no problem with you guys removing my link from your site, but PLEASE give me notice. I don't keep your link up for free. How does that help me? Within the next few weeks, I will be updating those Degrassi links that you guys have told me was down. I wasn't ignoring you... I've just been lazy lol. They should be done before the new season. I'm going to be VERY busy this summer! :)
Thursday 3/25/10
Hiya! It was time to update the layout and add some affies. I'm in the process of starting up a new site, devoted to the lovely Demi Lovato, Miley Cyrus, and Selena Gomez! Don't worry, I'll still be keeping up with this site! I just wanted to do something different from Degrassi for a change and I think this would be the best thing. I already bought the domain, but haven't set up the hosting yet... but the url will be disney-girlies.com. I'll let you all know when the site's up! :)
Sunday 02/21/10
Hey guys! So, I am aware that I totally suck haha. I've been completely lazy with this site, and I really wanna try to do better. There's so much that I need to do before new Degrassi starts, so I just gotta DO IT. All affies have been added, sorry for the delay! Enjoy the new layout, courtesy of v-smash :)
Tuesday 12/15/09
Alright, I'm gonna make this clear to everybody, and I'm sorry if I sound a bit rude saying this but I'm pretty pissed at the moment. I would appreciate it if you took ANYTHING off this site to please ask me first. I normally won't have a problem if you do so, but all I say is--ask before you take. There's a new website out with Degrassi episodes that have my tag on them, as well as other episodes and music that have the exact same link as mine. The owner of the site I'm talking about did not have my link anywhere on her site or make any mention of AlwaysForeverXOXO. When I posted in her shoutbox, she proceeded to delete my comments and then add a link to her credits section and claiming the link had been there the entire time, which it wasn't. Unfortunately, I do not have the access to remove the files because I didn't copy the removal link since I never thought this would be a problem. I feel like I have been more that nice to everyone, especially considering I'm providing you with all of these Degrassi episodes free of charge. I'm risking myself even having all of these episodes up because Epitome strongly frowns upon downloading their content. With that said, I'm taking down the Degrassi page temporarily until I find out a reasonable alternative to prevent this from happening again. I'm sorry to all of you frequent visitors that one person caused this to happen. I will definitely keep you guys updated to what I have in store. Thanks again for being so faithful to AFXOXO :)

New layout! I found this Avril layout and I thought it was super cute and I just had to use it! Total credit goes to Sweet Obsessions. Added two new affies, and took one off the list (by her request). I'm so sad there's no new episodes until 2010 :( It feels like it's so far away!!! It's really only like 3 weeks, but that is far away! lol. Just to give y'all a heads up, I'm going on vacation from the 24th-29th. If I can pick up an internet connection on my laptop, I'll be updating affies and such while I'm gone. Also wanted to give a big thank you to ALL OF YOU! My site has reached over 30,000 unique visitors and that is seriously a blessing. Keep visiting and tell your friends!!! :)
Saturday 11/28/09
Alright, I got updates for you!! I added 6 new affies to the list, took one off (because I couldn't find my link on their site), added 28 season 9 promos, 3 sneak peeks, 8 Degrassi profiles, season 8 recap, and the commercial for Degrassi Goes Hollywood Special Edition. How does that sound to everyone?? xD
Thursday 11/26/09
Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I'm updating because afxoxo has a new layout! It's not the typical layout I have, but I'm loving Lady Gaga lately, so I figured I'd try it out. I know Hannah was hoping for a Miley layout... those are hard to find! I found two. One of them, I've already used and the other was really cute, but I was having issues with it when trying to put my site name on it. I'm very OCD when it comes to how my site looks! It makes me wish I knew how to code layouts! I would've had several Miley layouts by now XD. I'll keep doing my best looking around for some more. Hopefully in the future I'll be able to use a good one. Good site layouts with celebs that I like are hard to find. I wanna start hearing from you! Tell me more things you would like to see on AFXOXO and I'm gonna do my best giving you what you want. Pretty pretty pretty please add the Facebook fan page! I got nearly 25,000 hits on the site and about 60 fans on Facebook, most of them are friends and family lol. It would really mean alot to me if y'all could do that.
Tuesday 11/3/09
I'm hoping y'all like the new layout :) I added a new video I made to the videos section, as well as went through my affiliates list and deleted a bunch of people who took me off their list or have a site that's down.
Thursday 10/15/09
Just wanted to update that I know not all the pages match. I wanted to at least update the layout on this page and on the Degrassi page since they're both the main pages that people look at. I have some stuff I gotta go do, but I'll probably finish changing the rest over tomorrow. I've also been updating the Degrassi list with the new episodes that have aired. A NOTE FOR ALL THE PEOPLE THAT HAVE ASKED: Episode 903 "Shoot To Thrill" has not aired yet. CTV is airing the episodes out of order because the storylines go together. 904/906 aired this past Sunday on CTV and 903/905 airs this Sunday. 903 will be airing on TeenNick tomorrow, so I should have that episode up by Saturday at the latest. If you have any questions, feel free to post them in the chat box or shoot me an email at amber@alwaysforeverxoxo.com
Wednesday 9/30/09
I'm so so so SO sorry that it's been so long since there's been an update! I'm doing major updating today to make up for it! I'm gonna try to get some more Degrassi episodes up as well. NEW SEASON STARTS SUNDAY ON CTV! I'll upload the episodes as soon as I get them! I also started a Degrassi message board with a couple of my friends, so please check it out! the link is in the nav :)
Wednesday 7/1/09
I can't believe it's July already! Only 1 month left until my bday, I'm excited :D So, all the pages have the new layout now, I hope you enjoy Cobra Starship! It was funny because I started changing over the layout last week to the CS layout, and on Thursday I actually met them in New York! Gabe was such a sweetheart, and I'm a bigger fan of the band now after meeting them. The biggest update is that AFXOXO now has a MySpace! If you are a fan of the site, and you have a MySpace, please add the page. It's www.myspace.com/alwaysforeverxoxo! Updates on the Degrassi page... I added a bunch of On the Sets and Season 9 updates. More stuff will be added today. I also went through my affiliates list, and had to delete 10 affies because they were invalid links. I don't know if any of those sites will be back up, and I'm sorry if they are going to be, but I can't have dead links on my page. I still wanna know your thoughts on a newsletter....
Wednesday 6/24/09
I just wanted to apologize about the site being down the past few days. When I had to renew my hosting account last month, I didn't have enough money to pay for the year, so I had to pay it monthly. Since I'm not used to that, I completely forgot to pay it this month. Hopefully, I won't make a habit out of it lol! Also wanted to say sorry for not updating. I've been having more of a social life lately, including a new someone in my life, so I can't promise I'll update right away, but it will happen when I get time. I dropped out of school, then my hours got cut, so I do have alot more free time on my hand. New Cobra Starship layout! I've been getting into darker templates lately, and I love Cobra Starship, so I thought it was perfect. Should look a little better then the last one. I'm gonna try to get more stuff up today, including more Degrassi episodes and updates. I made my niece a site, so I promised her I would work on that in a little bit, plus I have plans later today. Her site isn't up yet, but check out jadepaulisawesome.info! She's only 10, in case you were wondering lol. I never heard anything from anyone about a weekly/monthly newsletter for the site. Basically like updates and stuff. Is there a Degrassi episode you've been waiting for? I can let you know when it's uploaded by the newsletter. Let me know xox
Friday 5/15/09
Still working on uploading the Degrassi eps, but I've done an awesome job I think. I've posted all of seasons 1, 7, 8, all the mangasodes, and all of the specials. I'm only missing a few of the minis, and I got some episodes up for the other seasons I didn't mention. I'm working on getting a complete collection for my site. I'm starting to think that maybe I might start making a newsletter. Would anyone be interested in that?
Thursday 5/14/09
I can't believe AFXOXO is a year old already! Time really flies. I'm so so so sorry the update has taken so long, but life has gotten in the way of me updating the site. I'm hoping that will be changing! Even though you guys never saw the new Demi layout I put up, I got sick of it, so now you can look at the gorgeous Hayley Williams. Layout courtesy of Createblog, and Deranged Delusions. Please read the previous entry I posted. It's about the new stuff I'm adding to the site and copyright issues. Now, enough of my jibber-jabbering and I'm going to get back to updating!~~Okay, I'm still working on uploading the Degrassi/Hannah stuff. The Hannah link is a deak link right now, and I know that. Things are all spread out on the Degrassi page, so just scroll down until you find what you're looking for! I'm working on it as fast as I can. I know you guys have been waiting a long time! Email me at amber@alwaysforeverxoxo.com or chat in the chatbox if you have any questions.

Extravagant re-construction this weekend. Well, not so much lol. New layout thanks to SweetSpells. You have NO clue how long it took me to find a decent layout. I'm very picky when choosing layouts. I despise site model layouts for some reason. I feel like they are for sites for 12 years olds or something. I hope no one takes offense to that, it's just my own opinion. I'm not a huge fan of Demi, but I think she has talent, and this layout is gorgeous. I'm also in the process of posting season 6 of Degrassi, as well as season 1 of Hannah Montana, AND the very popular Hannah Montana: The Movie. Also, FYI..if I get some sort of copyright thing-a-ma-jigger because I'm posting the movie, it will come down indefinitely and will NOT be coming back up. Don't ask me, because you will be ignored. If that happens, I will post here, and let you know. Another thing, PLEASE DO NOT BOTHER AND PESTER ME ABOUT THESE DEGRASSI EPISODES. I have received several emails and posts in the shoutbox asking when I'm putting new Degrassi episodes up. I don't know when I will get them all up, but trust me, I am working on. I have to tag all of the episodes with my URL, and that takes awhile. And, to answer your question (because I know someone will ask), YES I have to tag the episodes. I want people to know my site. And on top of that, I know fanvids are very popular, and if someone is using episodes from my site to make fanvids, then they will most likely post their vid on YouTube or elsewhere similar, and that will help me get more visitors for my site. Not only that, but I just started working last week, so not only do I work, my uncle just died, my friend has been really sick, PLUS I have a life on top of that. Nothing personal, just please be patient. Another thing, my site is expiring next month, and I am planning on renewing it, although I'm not sure if I still want it to be AlwaysForeverXOXO. Please let me know if you have any ideas for a new site name. Also, thanks to Umkayy Lyts for applying to be affies with me :)
Tuesday 3/31/09
So, here I am back once again after a month and a half of not updating. I am sorry. I just had a lack of inspiration and motivation for awhile. But, I am now back, and updating everything. I hope you enjoy the new Britney layout I picked out. I'm also putting more Degrassi episodes up, as well. I've had many emails asking when I was putting more up. So, here you go. I'm doing them as quickly as I can. Also thanks to the 7 new affies I have. Eternally Eman, Maxiumum Ride, The Vulgarian Noise, Tears Don't Fall, Free to Fly, Retarted and DangerousXO! I'm also the big idiot who has ten tabs open in Firefox, and seven windows open, and somehow got confused and lost all of my little updates from before the new year. Oh well. Nothing I can do about it now, I suppose! I also took off some of my videos, and also added more. Also added some new graphics!
Wednesday 2/18/09
It sure has been a crazy couple of weeks. Rachel and I broke up, and I'm now back living at my parents house. Totally sucks :P But, it's getting better day by day. I figured it was time to update this site, because it had been over a month, and I do apologize for that! I wanna thank Heidi who suggested this awesome Demi Lovato layout from CreateBlog. I think it looks awesome :D I took out the photo album (since most of it was of me and Rachel), and I also changed my MySpace link because I got bored a few weeks ago and made a new MySpace :P Thanks to everyone's kind words in the chatterbox, and I'm really gonna try to get this site updated on a regular basis now!
Monday 1/12/09
Alrighty, so whoever posted "r u lez lololol" in my chatterbox was HILARIOUS. If you post in the chatterbox, I have your IP, so I can easily ban you and delete your message, I'm not stupid. And, to answer your question, yes I am a lesbian. I'm not forcing anyone to look at my site, so if there's something you don't like about me or my site, you're free to leave. I'm 21 years old, I'm not one of these 13 year olds running a website (yes, I'm aware I'm a late bloomer lol). I have life experience, and you didn't insult me. Sorry if I ruined your day. Also, all my content is linked on the right. Sorry that I don't make layouts or album covers or whatever, I'm not that talented just yet. You're free to use anything in my graphics or videos, just as long as you credit me, and let me know that you are using it, and where you are using it so I can check to make sure you're crediting me properly. Anywho....it's been a crazy week! Not only was my girlfriend rushed to the hospital last weekend, I had my surgery on Wednesday (I was getting cosmetic corrections from a car accident I was in during the summer of '07), AND I was laid off from my job. Which sucks big time. So, I have LOTS of free time on my hands which is going to be divided equally between job hunting and graphic making. I'm gonna be adding a new affiliate to the list, as well as new graphics tonight.
Sunday 1/4/09
Geez, what a day! I had to take my girlfriend to the ER at 1AM this morning. She had to get emergency surgery to have her gallbladder taken out at 9AM this morning, and we just got home about an hour ago at 8PM. Whew! I am so exhausted! But, anywho, I came around to update two new affies. Thanks Forizzle and Nightcore :) ♥ amber@alwaysforeverxoxo.com
