About
the site
In
the beginning, there was this job. And Neogorbash was compelled
to take a crash course on HTML comprehension so she could keep
this job. There were migraines, eyestrains, carpal tunnel syndrome...
and all those codes that truly drove Neogorbash to tears. Surely
there must be a better way to learn, thought she, as a song about
a horse's ass chanted in the background.
But
as they say with old dogs, Neogorbash was too WYSIWYG to even
think about a career shift. So she decided to give the session
one last shot using a favorite, favorite subject in the whole
world, and phoom. Five pages were up, running, with links
properly linked to. The mentor approved. This was the story of
a super force enabling Neogorbash to complete the course with
a decent passing grade. Everyone? Everything is possible with
the help of Voltron... Defender of the Universe!
It
took several more years to fully understand picking reasonable
freebie website providers, uploading files, and all things ftp
goobleydookies... but that story's for another website.
About
the site owner
Neogorbash
is still a displaced cubicle dweller assigned to churning out
materials that sell a variety of boring products (guaranteed money
back). Before that, she's often seen under the shady trees that
grew by the UST soccer field, playing D&D and exchanging comicbooks
with fellow slacker souls. And before that, she was a back-page-of-the-notebook
doodler since first grade who graduated to Voltron themes three
years later -- about the time when Some Kind Of Wonderful was
being shown, the John Hughes ouevre in which she appreciated the
name of Eric Stoltz's character (though she wasn't able to make
the Rolling Stones connection to everybody else in it until two
years later when she inherited, informally, a huge stack of ancient
phono albums from an uncle).
But
she digressed.
Neogorbash
misses the chicken and tacos at Pollo Loco in Megamall. She is not Keyser
Soze. |
