I’ve told you earlier that I’d see you all again in May. It’s mid of May now, and I’m back Oh, you can’t tell just how delighted I am scribbling down a regular post yet again here on Gorgeous Inspirations (GI). Hope you all readers feel the same way, too.

So, do you see any changes here on this blog, dear readers? During my ‘leaving’ in early May, I didn’t actually make too many improvements for GI, but let me tell you what the most significant ones are:

1. I upgraded this Wordpress blog from v.2.3.1 to v.2.5.1 (then it’s me who can see and feel the biggest difference here)—and boy did I need to spend two hours or so ‘only’ to upgrade it.
2. I’ve modified the tagline of the blog (see the one-line under the blog title above), which is now the fixed tagline of Gorgeous Inspirations (if any error happens to occur in my grammar—as I’m no native speaker of English—please do let me know).
3. I’ve deleted numerous older posts I imported from my past, no-longer-active LiveJournal blog, as I believe that they were excessively individual. I’m aware that I use the personal addressing ‘I’ here, but I absolutely don’t want to make this blog way too personal.
4. Maybe not that significant, but if you have long been readers of this blog, you may notice that I’ve altered the way I abbreviate Gorgeous Inspirations. I used to use ‘GoIn’, but now I start using ‘GI’ (apparently it’s more hear-able).

I was gone for weeks, of course those weren’t the only things I did; I have some more changes, but those are for later

Do voice your say about these little changes, I’d really appreciate that

Thanks for reading and have a nice blogwalking

I’ve been pretty busy doing some stuff, including some stuff on everything about Gorgeous Inspirations.

So I’m on efforts to refurbish this blog a bit (just a tiny bit, and FYI, not on the theme/template).

I’ll be back in May. See you soon

As I’ve told you, my post on Ayat-ayat Cinta (AAC) has brought pretty significant traffic to this blog, and that matters to me, really. Having so many people comment on my post matters to me. Don’t you, bloggers, agree with me?

Well, I won’t talk too much (again) about AAC. Just a quick note that there’s a blog kindly mentioning my post on AAC. It’s Planet Vavai. Thanks

And another virtual neighbor that kindly mentions this blog address is someone from Aku dan Perempuan. She puts Gorgeous Inspirations in one of her links in the sidebar of her blog. And in return—not because she has mentioned my blog, but because I DO think her blog is gorgeous—I put her blog address in my link sidebar as well. It’s worth a click, trust me.

:: The gorgeous inspiration of this post?
Even my blog can inspire other people that I don’t know at all to post their comments and/or to ask someone else to visit my blog

[PS: this post is written since GI uses Wordpress as its blog]

Yes, thank Dear Lord, the blog of Gorgeous Inspirations (GoIn) is (eventually) here, right before your very eyes, dear GoIn readers.

*sigh* How I’ve been longing (pretty) way long for this moment to come …

“The website exists, why should bother creating a blog?” (yes, I can hear some of you questioning that …). Simple–the website’s updated bi-monthly, while the blog can be updated as often as possible.

Okay, you might come up with another new question: “Why don’t you just update the website content more often, so no need to have this blog at all?”

Good question The explanation: due to my (quite) exhausting job (yes, I do have a real day job–though I really want managing GoIn as my first and only day job …), I can’t. You know, I handle all of this GoIn stuff alone (tiring, yet enjoyable, I swear!).

The website deals with way too much of HTML codes and on and on (basic HTML is so far the only thing I’m able to do), so I’m not sure I’ll be in a good shape if I have to struggle with HTML codes almost every day. I need to take a break as well. And preparing materials for each issue of GoIn isn’t an easy task also. Lots of brains needed (well, for that matter, only MY brain needed, but with extra sweats).

With a blog, I can provide you all, readers, with quick info, gorgeous stuff, etc., etc.

Not to disappoint you, but in the mean time initially, please don’t expect way too much from the blog. It’ll take a lot of process, process, and more process. Since I’m doing this during doing my day job, I can only do baby step by baby step. Don’t worry though, I’ll give the most of GoIn for you
