www.alyssaoliver.com

There are only a few minutes left in this day. Well, technically. It's the third day I've had this blog, and I've already almost forgotten my challenge!

I need to write something everyday. What can I say, though?

Perhaps I can discuss my new domain!

If you look up to your browser's navigation bar (you know, where you type your website URLs~), you will notice that it is no longer a blogspot URL!

I finally bought my own domain. <3

www.alyssaoliver.com is now mine!

For now, I just have it pointed to my blog, just so that it has some sort of use. I don't want it to just sit in the dark while I horde it around during the building of my website.

In the future, I do plan on putting together just a personal website for myself. I have a program from Adobe called Muse which is a brilliant piece of software that allows me to build a site visually and without coding! The whole coding thing is what's kept me from creating a better website. Another good thing is that with my Creative Cloud subscription, I'll get free web hosting through Adobe! That way, when I'm done building my site, I'll be able to easily publish through them and then point this domain to it, instead!

Now, I'm still learning that program, but I'd like to figure out how to include a portfolio section where I can upload my work (and new works) periodically. I'd also like to figure out a nice way to incorporate this blog should I be able to keep it properly running. Maybe if I cannot include it in the site, I can redirect to a subdomain (blog.alyssaoliver.com, perhaps?). I'd also, naturally, like to include links or special spots for my social media things.

There are so many things I want to do with the site. It'll take some work, but hopefully I'll be able to afford the time to get it up and running someday. I'd love a personal hub online! It'd would simply so much of my net life.

Anyway, I'll conclude this little post with a followup to what I posted yesterday (Chocolate Bars and Birthday Cards). I visited Conroe earlier today to give my grandfather the funny card and chocolate I got for his birthday. He laughed and liked it a lot. It was pretty simple and relaxed. I like to visit them when I can. c:
