Conversion.

I woke up late this morning because the alarm clock was not ringing. I have yet to confirm that theory though, because I haven’t checked the alarm function yet. But there’s a major possibility that I didn’t set the alarm in the first place or I dismissed it unconsciously.

Mr. Snots is in Stockholm right now, probably wandering around aimlessly; exactly like when he was in Amsterdam; or searching for an open air market or shop that sells water colour paintings and talk with the painters/artists for hours exchanging views on their passion for art and their favourite subject that most probably revolves around horses, boats and sceneries. I guess he wants to transform his condo into an art gallery or something. What ever that strikes your fancy, honey; as long as you are happy. I just hope that he got me those fridge magnets I’ve asked for. Talk about how easy it is to please a woman eh.

We chatted until almost 4a.m this morning, hence the excuse for my half-day emergency leave.

Ok.That’s that.

Regarding this blog; I have this plan going circle in my head for quite some time now. The plan is that I want to transform this blog into a “techy/geeky” blog and post about what I do best, Application Development and all things IT/System Integration. I’ve started this dotNET journey with zero knowledge, and now I can safely say that I’ve emerged a “hero” or somewhat (talking about an inflating ego the size of a planet). I have gained and learned so much from other developers through their weblogs and their contributions in the forums, I want to pay it forward.

I will share whatever that I have learned (anything that I have managed to get it to work to my advantage, my cheat-sheet, my little code manipulation tricks, things that I have successfully tweaked, from the simplest of example to the most complex algorithm) through out my journey with all the newbies searching for fast solutions and help in this area. I do hope that when they search for that certain keywords, they will be diverted to this blog and they can get something out of my post; exactly like how I started. I was like a virtual scavenger rummaging through piles of garbage before I found what I was searching for.

But I wouldn’t want this blog to be entirely geeky though. This is my space, where I share that little passions that I have in my life; my work, my friendships, my hobbies, my rants and all the things that mattered to me. I would probably label and organise it properly so that people won’t get lost and get confused.

But first, I need to get rid of all the historical posts and delete all the unnecessary. I need to make the layout more user-friendly; I don’t want it to look so depressing anymore. Enough with that already, if I got tired of it myself, I am sure people who stumbled across this blog would think that I’m suicidal or something.

So, here's to a new beginning. *cheers*
