I Can Haz Web Design for Krismaz?

I just realized how terribly hard it is to give even the smallest attention to building a personal website from the ground up when you’re interests run every which way. My interests in literature, World of Warcraft, blogging, and recently, minimalist web design, seems to be clashing against each other. How exactly does one prioritize interests when there’re other things calling your attention, say, getting a college degree?

When I finished grade school, I thought that “Time is gold” could never have been more cliche. But where I’m right at, it can never be more true.

Just to put everything in perspective, I’m going to have to state my predicament in a concise statement: I need a minimalist web layout. Or design. Or whatever web geeks call it. It’s Christmas so I guess it’s less shameless (eh?) if I just put it out there for everyone to know. I’ll be crossing my fingers hoping Santa might just get lost and somehow mistakenly land himself on my blog and grant this wish.

I don’t want too many colors. Perhaps just a header with a logo relevant to the blog title. At the risk of sounding lol-funny, I see a vampire with sagging eye bags and without a lower jaw, baring his fangs. I’m nowhere near creative so that’s the least I can come up with whatever faulty artisty gene’s still in me. Also, I like my text space-saver small in size and kind of like the body-text for this website because I tend to write long entries. Courier New, is it? I wouldn’t mind Arial too. Two columns wouldn’t look too awkward, I hope. Also, a small space for my Flickr thumbnails and of course, the obligatory Google ads.
