Ramblings

Welcome to my rambling corner, aka the blog. Gonna be huge text dumps here, with the occasional image. For now, I'm just keeping things simple and putting everything on this page. But I'll set up a proper blog system later on.

Version 1 Finally Complete!

02-21-2025

At long last, I'm finally finished with all the pages! Well all the ones besides this one, which I'm currently writing in. If you've been lurking around and following the site for a while now, you'll notice I've changed page ideas multiple times and ended up cutting four pages from the final list. I had a lot of creative blocks after I finished setting up the layout and I also realized the scope for the site was getting too big, so I decided to simplify things. If anything, I think keeping things simple was a key lesson I learned from this whole project.

I had a LOT of ideas, and really wanted to cram everything in here. But I realized it was only prolonging the process and giving me a lot of extra work that wasn't necessary at this stage of the site. If you were lurking in the chatbox, you'll notice I was conflicted on the site layout and also agonized on the home page earlier. I had literal headaches trying to figure out how to readjust everything, and it was already at a point where it was becoming unproductive, so keeping things simple was definitely for the better.

Glad I'm finally done now though. With this version of the site at least. I still have some plans as you can see from the to-do list that's currently in my about page, but I'll get to those eventually. For now, I'm just relieved to finally be here at this checkpoint. Also really happy I've finally been able to make this place happen. Always wanted to make a website as a kid, and I've finally been able to make that real after all these years. Gonna have a lot of fun using this place as my little outlet, now that the foundations have been set.

I also don't think I've ever actually written a blog before, so that's another first. I actually wish I had this set up as I was working on the site, but I had this weird insistence on doing this page last for some reason lol. Whatever the case, glad I have a place I can dump my thoughts in now. (besides the chatbox haha). Hopefully future posts aren't this long, but I guess that's the point of this being a rambling corner. That's it for now though! Thanks for reading if you made it here, or thanks for skimming if you went down here anyways. I'm off for now!

ps: i'm gonna miss the construction pikachu gifs
