New Look![/caption]I have started blogging way back in 2008, which doesn't seem too far ago but when you think about it, that's about 7 years ago. I cannot believe it!!!
I usually keep my blogs to myself, and if you haven't noticed I'm trying to keep my profile here on Nitpickle "anonymous" (well, except to my friends who found pictures here of people we know. LOL), but I'm still trying. I've always wanted to make this objective.
Anyway, believe it or not, I started with a melo-dramatic blog, which tells you exactly why I usually keep these things to myself. During the Glory Days of Multiply.com, I was on fire with the semi-poetic hugots.
That photo, tho. Oh god why.
In college, I wanted to share school-stuff "references" to my classmates, but Multiply is not officially allowed in the school's network, so I moved on over to Wordpress.com. It was very similar to Multiply minus the rather Social environment--which I loved. I'm not going to bore you with the school-stuff blog I tried to pursue but you guys let me know if you're interested to hear about it!
What you do have to know about that is that I was blocked for some reason (I think I know why). My entire account was inaccessible and there was nothing I could do, it was very sad and annoying, but I had to give it up.
In 2012, I started a new one under Wordpress again, now with Nitpickle. I have gone through many different others but I didn't do much with those. And because I was terrified about being blocked again, I decided to ditch the whole idea of signing up with anybody (with no hard feelings, I still love Wordpress) and thus, Nitpickle.com was born.
It's supposed to be a tech blog because that's what I am mostly interested about and maybe because I really idolised technoodling.net, unbox.ph and Techpinas, but you know.
Why not embrace my randomness, write about it, and put it all in one place?
I still consider myself new, and it's very hard to get it going, especially if you're not a writer, not even a photographer. (typos, typos everywhere)
I love food, I eat a lot of food, in a lot of different places, and I'll put a lot of food reviews here on the website but I'm way too embarrassed to take pictures of food in restaurants.
Seriously, how do people do it??? People do it every meal, everyday? Why can't I?!
It's freakin' hard to understand, but I'll get there.

If you haven't seen my previous logo, here it is. I made it 3 years ago and it's VERY out of style.
I realised it was about time a make a new one! It is obviously following the flat-icon trend we have now, which reminds you of Apple, but Microsoft actually was ahead with it (Ooooh).And oh, I changed the whole theme as well. Simple is always beautiful!

It's very minimal, and not a lot of people appreciate that, but I hope you did! That's it and I wish you enjoyed this tl; dr;-worthy moment!
