This website will focus on my whimsical encounters and hobbies. 

I tend to dabble when it comes to reading, gaming, coding, etc. I found that it should be important to jot the interesting bits that I have learned, rather than letting it fester and die out.

Over the course of the years, I have tried to start this website only to drop it. In that time, all that information did wither away as I have purged database after database. It is a saddening thought when you think about it because that information on Java, C++, and jQuery could have been useful since it is fun to revisit once in awhile back then.  I had also accumulated information on food locations and what my favorites were in those places. That has also disappeared.

Update: I have slowly started a new post on food locations. I'm also slowly adding other new travel locations, and at some point I'll be dabbling in other interests.

Let's hope I keep at it!
