I set up this blog last week but never got around to making a post about it, which is what this is now. Two weeks into the semester and the procrastinating is well underway.
First, I installed my theme and customized it with pages and menus, the whole thing. That process took a good hour or two. Picking a color scheme is very serious business. Then, I somehow broke everything, deleted everything, recreated everything, reinstalled my theme and customized it again. That process took another two hours along with a ten-minute near-crying almost-tantrum. The final result is, well, this.
So far, there’s really nothing on here except a lovely, easily navigable menu with links to things such as my twitter, flickr, YouTube & SoundCloud accounts. Also, there is a short bio. On the sidebar, you’ll find a slideshow of pictures from my flickr account and my twitter feed, and at the end of each post is a “Tweet” button and an e-mail notification feature. I’ve also installed Akismet and JetPack. A Daily Create section is on its way.
(In case you’re curious, the quote on the homepage is from Andrew Garfield, an actor from movies such as Never Let Me Go and The Social Network and the upcoming Spider-Man movie, in theaters this summer.)
