The Making

The Making of this site is a long and arduous process that entails numerous man-hours and plenty computer resources.... In other words, it's hard to produce a site of this calibre.

The History
This site has been through a lot. All right, just a few. :}

I first registered the space for this page at GeoCities on October 20, 1997. It was a very slow morning---in fact, it was the morning of my Quarter Exams and I was feeling lazy that I didn't really study. I decided to get web space instead!
So I moved into this address and from then on up to the official launching of this site on August 28, 1998, I experimented with various designs and finally settled on a clean and suitably neat white layout. I could've launched this site months ago, but I was busy with school (I was a senior high school student then) that I couldn't get around to finishing this site until after graduation in March. (The schoolyear here in the Philippines starts in June and ends in March.)

Gratitude is always welcomed.

Thanks goes to our Lord God for always being there. To my family for their support and encouragement. To Ben Duque for introducing me to the wonderful world Web publishing. To various web designers out there (Dave Siegel, Joe Gillespie, etc.) for providing Netters with much needed tips and ideas for good web design and functionality.
And how can I forget the people over at GeoCities for providing me with the space to put up my web page?
