Well, not really true. What I mean is that I have taken a free theme and use it on this blog. So what do you guys think of it? It’s really a simple theme, without any bells and whistles. But it looks great right? I am a sucker for simple designs, and although it is not much different from our original theme (which was the default of WordPress), I find it very suitable for our purposes. One important thing is that it is light weight, which is good for a site which is a shared host. Yes, yes, I am a cheapskate but hey, I don’t earn anything from this. I tried it with Internet Explorer and Firefox, both render the blog without any problems. If you are using Opera or other browsers, please check whether there are any rendering problems with your browser.

The only problem I see for this theme is that the title (logo) is way too top. It looks better if it is slightly lower than it is now. Perhaps I should get off my big fat ass and start doing something about the theme? Na, too lazy. I will definitely need more motivation than that. I will be adding Google adsense at the same time too. Any recommendations would be helpful.

If you have any comments about the new theme, please comment here. The author of this theme has some real skill in web design. Simple and elegant design is the best way to go and it never fails to impress (especially me). The designer is Azeem Azeez and the name of the theme is White As Milk, just like my ass.

I actually never expected myself to change the theme for this blog. But after reading some SEO blogs and forums which says that most blogs with the default themes are mostly “spblogs” which means Spam Blogs or useless blogs which are link farms! And in order to avoid people who thinks that this site is such, it is better to change the theme. So I did and here we are.

I Am Going to Be Retrenched Soon

Yes, soon I will be going to be jobless and living on financial handouts from my government. Wait, they don’t give any financial handouts, those selfish greedy bastards! My company has some financial problems and will most likely be retrenching some workers. I, being one of the most useless and disposable ones, will most likely be retrenched and kicked out first. Well, I understand that part. It’s inevitable that such things happen, even if it is out of my control. We sometimes have to pay for the mistakes our bosses made. That’s what I call life. The only thing we can do is to get up and start all over again. I don’t expect to stay in one place all the time, neither do I expect what Singaporeans call it an “iron rice bowl”.

But now comes the most important part – what am I going to do with so much spare time in my hands? I am thinking of building a raft and sailing to the big open sea and fishing. What’s more relaxing than that eh? Spending hours in a raft, not doing anything but fishing (and getting bitten by mosquitoes) and then showing off my catch to others? Arggghhh…matey. I am also thinking of growing roses in my “garden”. Yes, I am living in an apartment but growing roses requires just a small area, sunlight(Singapore has a lot of that) and some skill with plants. I have that green touch which I am sure will help me succeed in getting the most beautiful roses. Maybe I can then sell them roses as a sideline? Think of the demand for Roses during Valentine’s Day!

Or I could just continue doing what I am doing now, just a lot more. I mean, I usually spend like 2-3 hours per day on my websites, but now, I can spend like the entire day building my sites! I wonder how will it look if I have that kind of time in my hands. What do you guys think? Should I go “pro” with my sites? Can I do it? Or will I be living on financial assistance for the rest of my life?
