Bad Tidings
Olga on Nov 8th 2007
It’s 12:30 and I’m restless. My body is physically tired but my mind can’t seem to stop. I’ve been looking at a lot of websites today. Places like CSS Artillery.com and CSS Beauty.com. I can’t help but be jealous over how beautiful some of those websites are. I’m not really sure where my desire for web design went but it’s not around much these days. Gone are the days when I could sit around for six-seven hours and putz around with my Paint Shop until I was satisfied with whatever I made. I feel like I’ve kind of missed the boat. Everyone got better while I just did my thing. What the hell, you know?
Maybe this is why I’m trying to grab a hold of something. Maybe I’m looking for the inspiration or the drive to make something pretty once again. I know I’ve never been a wonderful web designer to begin with but there’s something to be said about self-improvement. Right now I feel like a dinosaur agape at the massive meteor hurtling towards me. I’ve resorted to using templates both on my website and livejournal simply because it’s easier and less time consuming than me figuring the coding out on my own. That used to be my favourite part once upon a time.
When did I stop enjoying the one hobby that I’ve had for so long?

That sucks that you have lost your inspiration. I kind of know what you mean about you staying where you are and everyone else getting better (although I do not think this of you) as I am the same. I haven’t converted to all the new fads and stuff. I like to do my own thing and stuff. Btw, this layout is really cool. I like it lots and lots. Hopefully you get your groove back
