New and old stuff

I decided to re-do my current project today, which was the BLVK Carpentry website, since I thought it needed some changes. I already had a concept going, just needed some more photos and materials. Do check out the progress at www.blvk.com

While I was uploading the files I kept getting this error message 'Quota exceeded', which would mean that I needed to clear space off my server if I wanted to add new stuff in. I was pretty amazed that some of the things managed to remain in my server. Things I've written almost 5 years ago!

I started writing this thing I called e:Planet around that time. It was like a diary/publication. At that time not many people did that, and the word blog wasn't even coined then. But there I was, writing, publishing, editing the links. And today, I just browsed through some of the things I wrote. Its a strange feeling, its like I am reading about an entirely different person, but yet, so similar...speech patterns haven't changed a bit, I actually was (and still is) quite cynical.

I liked life then...no worries, no responsibilities. I wrote with careless abandon, with passion. I wrote about the future that hasn't happened yet with such hope and possibility. Things seem so different now, so much more subdued, real. Reality makes for boring company sometimes, and sometimes I just want to be away from it. But only for a moment.
