I finally get to write this ridiculous note that has been saved and re-saved for the last three years. Yes, I had anticipated this day for quite a long time.

The domain Eternalize-bliss.com and everything else on the subdomains will be deleted by late April, so Azzy, darling, grab what you can and hold out for a little while until I figure out how to get a little space on the web to call my own. Frankly, however, I just don't have time for it any more. Not to say that I'd lost interest, I didn't, but I did loose some time allocation. Second reason, it is disheartening, especially for an Economics major like myself, that this down-turn has affected my family and I HARD, so that little bit of money coming out every month can be used for other things, like gas or train-ticket.

I had A LOT of fun. I met a lot of great friends, though I still wonder if anyone still remember this is over-dramatic girl over here!!! I'd spent a lot of empty childhood days just designing and it was truly an outlet I sincerely loved (and still love). I blame it on the aging part of life. I must admit that a lot of my networking is physical now, and even though I have friends all over the world, I enjoy physically contact a lot more than virtual contact. I have always been old-fashioned in every sense of the word, including my manners and speech. Call it the old English girl deep inside me wanting to break free.

And something about what I always love to call, "The Metropolitan World of Web Design" is changing for better or for worst, I will let you be the judge. Call me bitter if you must, if you think I am this way because I can't keep up with it. If you haven't learned ANYTHING about me for the last, what? Six years or so, then you don't know that I could care less about trends and popularity and other trivial things that come with being a part of that world.... I blame it on the aging part of life.

Of course DA will be updated once in a while with new art because that liberal side of me will never disappear. I might set up a page somehow to post things about my travels for the next few years. We will see I am completely guilty of the fact that it is hard for me to keep in touch when I loose physical contact for so long. My friend Julia in Munich is the only one who can keep up with my atrociously long letter writing, who competes with me in the same vigour on who can write the longest letters. But those who know me best (and that includes you Azzy, I hope, BECAUSE YOU HOE I MISS YOU LIKE HELL!!), know that I always think about them and miss them more than my words can ever express. Those who I love, love me and will love me regardless of my mistakes.

So love me for sounding vain.

When you are ready, have a cup of tea with me and tell me how have you been. Until then, good bye and thank you for the great(?) memories.
