Welcome to my new personal website!</h3>

<p>I’ve been working on and off on a portfolio-type website for a bit of time now. Never actually finished it. Like here was a prototype I was working on for some time…</p>

<p><img src="/img/posts/scratchwebsite.png" alt="" />
<em>My attempt at building a site from scratch… <strong>yeesh</strong></em></p>

<p>I went back and forth on using a framework, to building it from scratch, etc. I decided to just use Jekyll with the <del>Type-On-Strap</del> (now) HyG template since:</p>
<ul>
<li>It looks great!</li>
<li>Less work for me!</li>
</ul>

<h3 id="so-what-is-this-all-about">So what is this all about?</h3>

<p>Well anything I’ve been working on, whether it be in school or a side project. Maybe what I’m doing at work but I’ll only in a very vague sense.</p>

<p>While it is all hosted on Github Pages!</p>

<p>My main goal is just to be consistent with how often I’m posting. I originally had target of once a weekend, but that can be excessive, so I’ll be keeping it a minimum of twice a month.</p>

<p>My <em>dream</em> goal would be keep this blog running for a long-time like <a href="https://blog.codinghorror.com/">Coding Horror</a>. It’ll be hard, but hey, that’s why it’s a <em>dream</em> goal.</p>]]></content><author><name>Anthony Mendez</name></author><category term="Blog" /><category term="FirstPost" /><category term="Blog" /><summary type="html"><![CDATA[Hi!
