Why I love the Q*Bee

December 18th, 2008

I don’t care if it counts or not. =)

I became a member of the Q*Bee in 2003. After three years though, life grabbed me by the neck and dragged me away from a very fun web site.  But I couldn’t stay away for long. I loved the site so much that as soon as my site was back up and running, I re-joined. I was so happy to be back.

I’d always enjoyed the activities and the interaction with the other members. I met some pretty amazing people through the site and I hope to meet many more.  It was most interesting to see all my old patches from my former membership, and how times had changed. One of my previous patches was a picture of my ex, Violet. Not that it matters much to me anymore, but I did have a little chuckle to myself as I reflected on who I used to be.

But I digress. The Q*Bee is a fabulous website. It allows for creativity, friendship, connections, interactivity, and most of all, fun. :D

Goodness, my first blog entry.

December 17th, 2008

Voila! My first entry in my very first self-made (somewhat) blog! No more Livejournal or MySpace journals for me, boy. Hoorah! I had seen a bunch of sites with the “WordPress” copyright at the bottom, and became curious about making my very own blog on my own domain. I don’t know if I would have been able to make one when I was still using Malicia‘s subdomain, but I knew that with my own domain, I could definitely do it.

Thanks so much to WordPress for their ingenious coding and support.

One of the main reasons I wanted my own blog: Recently, a pixel club I’m a member of, the Quilting Bee, had an official Blog Day, where all the members wrote an entry talking about why and how much they love the club. I felt left out, since I didn’t have a real blog of my own. Another reason is that I grew tired of the massive amount of idiots I had to deal with on Livejournal. On my own blog, I have no rules. I can speak my mind freely (within reason) and not have to worry about being banned or removed for “bad behavior”. So suck on that, LJ admins!

I’ve spent most of my day just learning all the ins and outs of the coding WordPress uses. I think I am going to have to force myself to learn PHP, even though I am dreading it. But, you gotta do what you gotta do.

As for my personal life, I don’t want to divulge too much yet, since really… I don’t know what’s happening myself, really. All I’ll say is that I went to the doctor today for what may potentially be a serious problem. =P Here’s to hoping it’s nothing major and I’ll be just fine. ;)

Anyway, back to coding this thing. Woot.
