Hello World!

Oct 09, 2024 1 min misc

Hello, world! After months (or maybe years) of procrastination, I finally did it, I have a blog! The road to get here has been a bumpy one. Sharing your opinions, thoughts, and experiences with the world on the internet can be pretty daunting, and for a while, that’s all I could think about. Finding motivation when you feel like you have nothing worth sharing can be tough. But in truth, you can share whatever you want, regardless of what others think. So, I’ve warmed up to the idea, and it doesn’t seem so horrifying anymore.

My goal with these posts is threefold:

  1. It’s therapeutic for me. I’m doing this for myself.
  2. I hope some of my posts might be helpful to others.
  3. It helps me stay relevant.

I plan to stick to a biweekly cadence, posting once every two weeks. I might not always stick to this schedule, though, as I need to find my rhythm. Not to mention, inspiration might strike sooner at times, or not at all. I think I’ll be writing a lot in the first few weeks though, just to put myself out there and keep busy when I have some free time.

For those of you that are curious, I built this site using Jekyll, and ChatGPT helped me with styling and scripting, as I have 0 front-end skills. I did however had a design in mind which expedited the process. All in all I put this together in about 8 hours.

Ok, I think that’s it for now. Seems like a good first post hehe. Stay tuned for more, and I hope you subsribed via RSS!
