Two Years Later, A Blog Makeover

After two years, I have finally given my blog a redesign. I have to admit, it wasn’t entirely willing – I logged onto my blog last week only to discover that the cityscape background I loved had disappeared. Not cool.

However, I have decided it was a sign that I should change everything. I’ve been pining for some extra width to publish larger photos forever. Plus, when I started this blog, blogger was worlds more restricted than it is now and I hadn’t even started my design classes. Now that I’ve relinquished the old layout I was so attached to, I’ll probably be messing around with the way this site looks a lot more. Look forward to more changes in the future!

Coincidentally, it is almost exactly two years since I started this blog. And three years ago last week I started my first blog as I embarked on London Study Abroad (I can’t believe it’s been that long!).  For those of you who think I deserve a grander celebration of my three years of blogging, like say a  trip to London where it all began, I will gladly accept all cash and checks.

So, old design, I bid you adieu.  You were very good to me.

(Side note: At the risk of jinxing things, I just want to express that I love my trusty old hp laptop so much because even after four years of my lugging it all over the world, it still constantly runs the 2000 programs I demand of it quickly and at the same time).
*song = Back Here by BBMAK (sometimes you have to indulge in a little boy band action. for my fellow Londonites, there’s some great London footage.  Just sayin’) 
Update: now I’m stuck in an endless loop of watching 90’s and early 2000’s music videos.  Ooops.  This best of the 90’s pop video is a Winner.

  2. I love your new layout. It looks great, and I like the extra width for the photos (I have been thinking about making change for the same reason, actually). Good job with the design!
