To: me, from: me, label: note to self.

Category: Blogging

I email myself a lot. Random things, important things, sometimes even simple. Some people wonder why.  And honestly, my mentality about email is that it's "on the record." If it's on the record, I'll actually follow it. Or do it. Or remember it.  That's really the only reason why. I never email myself something I can put on a sticky note. Sticky notes are temporary.

Category: Games

Today, I've made the decision to republish my research doc for Super Mario 64 DS. I've made some edits, as well, to bring it up to my 2022 standards. This document was something I made in the span of 9 days, with help from my friend in terms of doing editing, proofing, and all that fun stuff. I'm very proud of it and am excited to continue keeping the legacy alive. If you'd like to read it, » Continue Reading

Reviving OneCMS: An old friend that runs my website now

Category: Web, HTML, Tech

Recently, I took it upon myself to start rebuilding my website. Giving it an overhaul and moving away from WordPress.

Thus, I ripped everything out and got to building. I tried some other sta... » Continue Reading
