…and beyond!

This is fascinating. It appears that Wordpress has changed tremendously since I last used it, what, 3-4 years ago? Time flies. People change. Software bloats. Software actually bloats to the degree that it makes me want to write my own CMS instead, but I seriously don’t have the time.

This is also temporary. I’m just playing with blogging because I kind of feel like designing a blog. But in the meantime, here’s a little about me:

I’m Christine. I’m 17. I’ve been developing websites for 7 years now, but my main interests are in designing, not programming. That’s why I’ve never ventured beyond PHP and MySQL. I want to have a career in either advertising or graphic/web design when I grow up.

People fascinates me. If I didn’t already have my occupation planned, I’d want to be a psychiatrist, or a profiler.

I have a lot of different  dreams that all overlap, clashes. I hope we have several lives, so that I eventually can try them all. Because I’d also like to be a FBI agent, a surgeon, a drug addict, a model, a millionaire.

I’m a huge geek, but I don’t define myself by it.You wouldn’t be able to tell that I’m anything but “normal” if you walked past me on the street. Perhaps not even if you’d known me for a month, because few people in real life know the true capabilities of my nerdiness.

I read both Digg, and ONTD. I both overuse abbreviations, and obsess about grammar. I’m an Apple fangirl with a Windows machine. I care as much about Britney’s latest hookup as I do the iPhone’s latest firmware.

IDK why I’m even writing this. I know I give fuck-all about other people’s introductions. I’m not particularly unique either. Just like everyone else. ;)

  1. Choose life. Choose a job. Choose a career. Choose a family. Choose a fucking big television, Choose washing machines, cars, compact disc players, and electrical tin openers. Choose good health, low cholesterol and dental insurance. Choose fixed- interest mortgage repayments. Choose a starter home. Choose your friends. Choose leisure wear and matching luggage. Choose a three piece suite on hire purchase in a range of fucking fabrics. Choose DIY and wondering who you are on a Sunday morning. Choose sitting on that couch watching mind-numbing sprit- crushing game shows, stuffing fucking junk food into your mouth. Choose rotting away at the end of it all, pishing you last in a miserable home, nothing more than an embarrassment to the selfish, fucked-up brats you have spawned to replace yourself. Choose your future. Choose life… But why would I want to do a thing like that?
