< previous entry | next entry >

had just been reading a few of my own blog entries from last month because i lowk forgot what i wrote in some of them, but it made me think about how i really like to look back on things

i do this alot with my art especially. i like to scroll through my gallery to see what it was like five years ago just so i could compare it with my art now and think about how much progress i've made even if it was slow progress ( ˘͈ ᵕ ˘͈♡)

that said, i was considering uploading some of the less egregious ones onto here just for the sake of comparision LMAO but i need to sort out my art gallery before i do that. the sorting is a lil messy as of now

as we talk about retrospection, lets talk about prospection as well!!! i also like to think about the future, as in i wonder what my art or my site or even myself might look like in the future. it's interesting because whatever i predict will always fall short of what the future actually becomes

but of course thinking too much about the past and future isn't very good. this year i tried to "stay more in the present" but i'm not too sure if i really accomplished that, because frankly i don't know how im supposed to do that lol. i suppose i should be appreciating the time right now and make the most of it, but i'll admit i wasn't doing too good in that aspect this year. so maybe it'll be one of my resolutions for the new year, but i'll save that for the new year blog haha

ive thought this to myself tons of times but i still can't believe how fast time flies. i'll be moving out of my parents house for college very soon, and im kind of scared and excited at the same time.. i've never really moved houses long-distance or anything so its hard to imagine not sleeping in my bed anymore. ahh

i hope i can make lots of new friends !!! then i can force them to make websites with me ........... maybe,,. next year my life is gonna be hectic, so im not sure i'll be able to update my site as frequently. which isnt inherently an issue but i'll miss updating everyday !!! oh well. at least i dont have to clear my cache so many times.

but yah. im happy with where my site is at rn and even though i feel like changing things up everyday i've finally put enough into my site to make it not worth restarting. the first few months i started out everything was kinda in a very volatile state and thats why i could bear tearing it down and starting over. im sorry if anyone ever wanted to revisit my site from that time but couldn't because i deleted it off the internet, but maybe i'll make an archive version here on bonyou sometime. if it's any solace the wayback machine is always there :3

i wouldn't say i regretted deleting my first site. sure it was cool looking and all that but in the end didn't really satisfy me. mobile responsiveness is something i care a lot about, because i browse sites a lot on my phone (especially my own lmao) so having a kind of mobile hostile site didn't sit right with me. nevertheless it was fun to make sites with the craziest layouts lol

anyways. see u in 2026, or maybe later if i decide to write another entry before then :3 oh and did u know?? its the one month anniversary of my graduation!! just thought itd be cool to point out lol
