About
This is my personal website. It went through several changes in terms of the site name and content, starting from my now-defunct domain, Akaliane.net. It used to be a site for my writing projects alone from general blogging to writing certain articles covering topics usually related to my current fandom and general pop culture. Today, this site simply became just a general personal website, a playground of sorts where I can get random content-wise while all the latest technical, internet-related blog entries are now housed in my portfolio site, ADRIMARIE.us.
I use this site as my hodgepodge playground of sorts, mainly for writing random stuff for writing practice and sharing some random general content that I may find interesting and worth sharing to the masses. I dabble with other websites hosted under other different domains, but all of them are still under construction. I hope that you may find something you may be interested in here and if you do, be sure to holler and let me know. I’ll see if I can have my focus towards your suggestion instead.

CURRENT THEME
I haven’t come up with an original theme yet, so I decided to test out one of the Themify.me premium themes I purchased at their Anniversary Pack special a few months ago. This modified Wumblr theme is a Tumblr-like type of theme that I tweaked a bit; I decided to go for this one for its simplicity and its ready-made features that saved me from overloading it with a lot of plugins.
