Redirecting Brain Traffic

Posted on July 10, 2011 by Turego

Alright… I’m realizing that the eJournal has been more of a Site Journal lately. Completely unintentional I assure you. Some of the entries were added to see what posts would look like on the page while implementing site changes, but that’s pretty mundane for a journal, or much of anything really.

So LIFE… Recently I began a class entitled “Seventh Day Adventist History & Prophetic Heritage.” So far I’ve only acquired 3 of the 8 books of required reading for the class, but the first few chapters of “Light Bearers: A History of the Seventh Day Adventist Church” have really got me thinking… The world in which Adventism began was not altogether dissimilar to ours, but people then seemed more earnest to follow the dictates of their own consciences and pursue the truth more than profit or entertainment.

The site changes I’ve been making lately began with the desire to recreate myself according to my ideals. But the progress has been slow, and I haven’t exactly been constant. Today I decided to test an idea: activate a Media Control function for my life. That may sound kind of silly, but if you think about it most of us don’t monitor what we allow to enter our minds on a moment by moment basis. I have found myself watching more online shows or playing emulated video games at strange hours and for no reason… even when I was bored with it! SO I’ve decided to STOP going to all of my usual entertainment avenues (web comics, subbed anime, cool movies, Youtube, etc) and only pursue useful media and creative activity.

Let’s see how that goes for me!

Circles are… circular

Posted on June 21, 2011 by Turego

Lots of unseen updates lately. I’ve been attempting to find a way to create separate blog pages with their own layouts with posts of one category. Unfortunately I haven’t really had any luck doing this… I feel like I’m missing something important. I’ve scoured WordPress’ Pages site to find code and helpful info, but trying what I found there proved fruitless. Did some more searches with category pages and found some possibly useful plugins, and these have yet to prove their worth… what am I doing wrong?? Confused and going in circles with applying and undoing edits. Frankly, I’m getting tired of it.

Steel

Posted on June 17, 2011 by Turego

The design is certainly coming along now. The header is organized and spaced comfortably, steel background loads much faster than the original wood design, and everything is inside its own box. Not quite done yet, but definitely a step forward for the homepage.
