I'm learning to build a website.

This is never easy if you are trying to understand and learn how to build a website using a CMS.  Although we can say that CMS has already elevate you to a higher ground, atleast not ground zero. But since this is a new one that I will be using since I paid for it then I should really push myself to know how to use this effectively.

By the way, I have tried Dev Hub as the first CMS because I think for a newbie, I can use 80-85% of its capability. Even though slow and crashes many times, at least it helped me at some point to launch my website soon. Then, I also looked at LightCMS since it's interesting that it is also kind of drag and drop but being free cannot really do you more because of the trial period and the very limited disk space. I know that there are a lot of very good CMS out there like Wordpress, Joomla or Drupal - I am not sure why I did not even try to give it a day or two to study them.

And now, I am really trying to study this new one not just I paid for it but I think this CMS has a potential. As I have seen the widgets are good and built already, plus the themes are also good looking. But still needs to learn the usage of other functions available. I will update you about how it goes with what I am doing. :)

What started this?

What I mean with the "this"? The "this" is this blog. I've stumbled upon this term "blog" when I am in college when a colleague is actually doing this. But I don't know why I can't see myself doing it and enjoying this stuff before. It's like my view on this is just like an online literary portfolio wherein you should have this if you are able to right good poems or songs that would make the readers be waiting for your next piece of art. And I'm not really into poems and songs that much so I did not do it. But my assumption was wrong, it was according to some seminars that I attended about blogging. So then I am doing it now, the question is why now? Actually, I should have done this early on but can't really give time and thought of actually doing it. Finally, I got this gut to do it without thinking twice. =)

As I clicked new post and showed me a window with the prompt in the title, I really don't know where to start or what to say. And just typed a question "what started this?". So, my brain dug for answers why am I really thinking to have a blog or include this in my daily routine. Surprisingly, I got 1 big reason why and it's not good to spill it out here right away. ;)

To give you a clue, I think I would bring you back to those old times. Those times that I am staring at the horizon thinking if I am getting any nearer to my dreams. Wow! But maybe, I will first put a little background of who I am, what I am like in chapters. Giving you an idea about what has happened and what was I thinking  why that kind of question struck me. Having said that, I'm still actually not sure of what I would tell for the next post but I would really obliged myself to do the next one.. Until then..
