Hello! I'm Oscar, a student and front-end web developer. This is my tumblelog. More?
Back in January I revamped my website using Textpattern as the core and I used it as a blog as well. Up until now that is. I closed down that blog, but not my Textpattern installation, after I decided that I love Tumblr too much to be able to leave it.
Tumblr will now be my only way of blogging (kinda) and I am proud of saying this:
My Textpattern installation will now work like a great and fast way of keeping track of my main site and its subdirectories, e.g. /about, and I have no intention of leaving it just because I’m not using it for a blog.
A thumb up to you, Tumblr.
Neglect.
Fail to care for properly; not pay proper attention to; fail to do something.
This is what has happened here and I can’t explain my absence. I haven’t been busier than usual, nor have I been sick so I guess I’ve just been lazy. I am not only treating you badly by not writing and sharing what I love, it is also bad for me. As Amine says:
I can’t keep stuff for myself because that is not the way life is meant to be.
Having stuff bottled up inside only fuels aggression and depression, both of which I try to avoid as best I can. Writing and sharing what I think, as I do even by reblogging, feels great and is one of the reasons I keep writing; both on and offline, publicly and privately.
Let me know when I start neglecting everything again.
Amine Benboubker is both a talented photographer as well as a friend of mine so I couldn’t say no when he wanted to use my Tumblr theme.
The cost? A homemade ratatouille when I visit France the next time. It’s hard to beat that.
