Yay for the minimalistic design! and Barakamon themed images.

I’ve been tweaking this site for the whole year without really adding content on it. Ang arte ko lang. Anyway, you see, a blogosphere friend of mine used to tell me that when you blog, it should usually be 80% content, and 20% design. Although I follow that (a bit) on my other (anime) blog, looks like I’ve been utilizing the 100% here solely for design — plus I don’t know what to write. I’m tore on what to write.

I’ve been watching anime since high school and it’s been totally my hobby for the past — what? 8 years? Anime has been a part of me, and I don’t know if it would still be Ivan if there’s no anime in it — which is why, I’ve been keeping tabs only on my anime blog during the past years that this blog has been inactive. There would surely be an anime somewhere whenever I blog, and actually, if you’ll check out my editorial posts in that blog, you could actually count those as personal posts that could have been posted here instead. See now? Keeping this place somewhat became pointless b-bbut! Of course, there would still be a fraction of my life that doesn’t have the anime on it which is why I still tightly hold on to this.

For now, plans for the site (damn, how many times have I planned something for this site and yet I haven’t done anything?) would include writing entries to release some of my stress – primarily frustration – caused by job hunting (Yes, I’m still unemployed). If not, then “mono no aware” moments would do. You’d probably be able to read some plot bunnies of mine too, if ever the novelist in me kicks in!

Note: Please don’t bother to check my posts pre-2009. PLEASE.
