It appears that my site got a brand spanking new makeover! At the risk of sounding like an infomercial (Buy this 5-in-1 product and get 4 NEW products free of charge! Wow! That’s like getting 9 products for this SUPER LOW PRICE!!!), I’ll list some of the major changes to this site:

• New layout: I wanted something illustrative but not so cluttered that it would detract from the photos in my blog posts, present and future.
• New location: Most people probably arrived here from the old URL blog.cindypepper.com, only to find a redirect to the actual domain! Why the change? Well, it didn’t really make sense for me to isolate the blog to a different subdomain, since it’s just as integral to my domain as all the other content. Plus, it was pretty easy to transfer everything, so why not take the inevitable move now? RIP old blog URL¹ — you were great while you lasted.
• New portfolio: I cleaned up and added new works to my portfolio, including a new webdesign section! Here’s hoping that there will be more portfolio content this year (!).
• Updated pages: I suppose that goes without saying, but I figured that with a new layout, I might as well spruce up whatever content I have. And as always, feedback is appreciated, especially since I plan on adding more.

Anyway, I am doing swimmingly myself. Busy, too. However, for the past two days, my nose has been grossly congested. (And I mean grossly.) This week was a bit light in terms of workload, but unfortunately, I can’t say the same about last and next week. I have many a paper, midterm, and problem set due next week that thinking about it puts me in a state of worry. I keep remembering that my spring break London vacation is in less than two weeks, but then reality hits me with another impending deadline.

Also, I can’t believe it is March already. Furthermore, New York got hit with heavy snowfall on the eve of March. The weather had been semi-decent for February; did the groundhog emerge from the burrow, only to see its shadow a few weeks late? The sudden cold weather is worsening my congestion, alas.

Well, seeing as my immune system isn’t so robust right now, I’m going to go to sleep and hope that I’ll be a little less congested in the morning.

¹: Despite the redirect, I definitely recommend updating any blog.cindypepper.com links to this site at cindypepper.com, especially since I’m not planning to use that subdomain anytime soon.
