WELCOME to my new home!

All these while, I had always wanted to venture away from blogspot. But never got around doing it because:

1) I didn’t know how to get started

2) Didn’t have the time to seat down and learn how to

3) Lazy

4) Looks too daunting since I don’t know nuts about IT and web-publishing

One of my biggest motivation is that I cannot access blogspot from work so even when I have some spare time during lunch or after work (while waiting for the traffic to clear before I set out), I cannot blog.

Now, thanks to Jazzmint, whom from now-on, I declare my “Personal IT Consultant”, I not only migrated away from blogspot, but I even have my own domain! This dear friend spent more than a week haggling with the hosting company on good packages for me, “frying” them when they tried to rip me off, “talking shop” with the company, and even started and tested this new webpage for me! If that’s not enough, Jazzmint has even offered a 30-minute tutorial lesson to get me familiarised with blogging on Wordpress.

Now, you tell me, how to find a friend like this?!

Giddy Tigers tagged me on this.

Don’t see why not. I would post more photos of myself if I was slimmer though…..

Blogging is personal to me. As the old-age adage goes, “One man’s meat is another man’s poison”.

Not particularly
