2009

Wow~!
(I don't know how many times, I've started a post with that, haha.)

It's been more than a year since I started this blog. Sadly, I must confess that I have not been routinely staying true to the monthly quota; however, Blogger itself, has grown wonderful in allowing users to place all sorts of new "gadgets" (as they call them) to convey their message in multiple ways instead of being limited to words. I'm going to breeze through what I have moved from this year:

• Images
• Connection to Flickr
• Side Links
  
• Blogger's Video
• Youtube Embedding
• Imeem Embedding
• Automatic Search by Google
• Lists
• Embedding Forms

Overall, I'm pleased with where the blogspot is standing (although, I wish I could post more). I check it every now and then to add new weird stuff so it's nice that it hasn't turned into a "ghost town" blog like my DeviantArt, Bebo, and WordPress accounts.

Everything ties together well and it gives me great pleasure to look back on the previous year of posts. This experience is just the same as my love of photography and my annoying presence at the dinner table, other events, and vacations of all sorts, taking pictures of everything, dead or alive.

Over the last couple of months, I've noticed that I have been flipping through the plastic pages of my family's photo albums where the cameras ran on film. Each time, I find myself cooing at the baby-selves of my siblings. I can't wait that in the coming years, I'll be laughing at my stupid mistakes and judgments due to my prefrontal dysfunction as a teenager, when I grow older.

To reminsce and reflect are activities that never cease within my mind and continue each moment, sleep or awake.

This year, I want amazing things to happen. For each remarkable instance, I wish to capture it, whether through picture, word, or simply, the memory.

Let's make 2009 a year to remember!

with great eagerness,
