My web site is up

This week was a big week for me. I launched my first real web site, lawlergraphicdesign.com/ .

In a way this served as a graduation ceremony, in that a year ago I struggled trying to read and understand a Deamweaver text book. But, enrolling in a formal class headed by a very enthusiastic and dedicated instructor payed off.

She is the same instructor that taught the WEB2.0 class that resulted in my blog. I will always thank her for her help and continued support.

Onwards

My spring semester ended two weeks ago, and I am happy to report that I have earned a 4.0 GPA since returning to school to study web design. I am proud of that fact, mainly because so many individuals seem to believe that those of us who would be labeled baby boomers are pretty much dinosaurs. I personally am not ready to accept that point of view, at least not entirely.

I am told a successful blogger focuses on subject matter that they feel passionate about, and that others would find interesting. So often bloggers want to make political statements. I don't care to just become one of so many others. Besides, my political views are not original. In fact I would call them traditional, and not really profound.

Since my WEB105 class has been completed it also means that the original purpose for my beginning my blog has been fulfilled. I have the choice of simply ending it now, or continuing either in the same direction, or to redirect the blog in another direction. For now I think I will simply use it to comment on subjects related to the economy, technology and my thoughts on building a small freelance business. Who knows how long I'll continue.
