I have to get back in the habit of blogging every day to exercise my writing ability. Who taught me that creativity is like a rubber band that needs to be stretched? I forgot, but that is the mentality that I will have to readopt and play into my every day life now in order to succeed in the career path that I have chosen. In actuality, I hope that my rubber band won’t snap – that would suck.

This entry is going to be random as usual as I do not have anything in particular to discuss. I am just letting things flow off my mind like mental vomit. I am just trying to, yep, reestablish that blogging every day habit.

Actually! I was going through some of my old websites to add them to my portfolio when I came across some extremely old blog entries from 2003. I can hardly believe that I have been keeping the ‘crabinfested’ title alive since 1999. The name sprang from a classroom argument with two of my friends at the time. Emiliano Erlich was his name, and back then, he was extremely volatile and sought to tick everybody off just for fun. He ended up poking insults at this girl named Elisha and she ended up calling him a, “CRAB INFESTED BIATCH!!!” Hahaha. Good times. I could not stop laughing at the thought of such a random conjunction of words that I had to apply it to a new website that I was making. At the time, I did not yet realize the link between crabs and genital infections – so if I had known that – perhaps I would have reconsidered. ~ Ah well! All in all, twas the birth of ‘crabinfested’ as well as my perpetual blogging.

Today, you can still access it at http://crabinfested.cjb.net, but it will just redirect you to my professional website which can also be accessed here: http://www.wix.com/pboupha/pboupha. Although life changes and the site no longer has any blog entries on it, I never plan on closing the site down and will keep it alive for tradition and nostalgia sake. If you ever lose touch with me, search out something crabinfested and we will be able to reconnect. REMEMBER THAT! At least until after 2012 when the world ends, but that is another entry entirely.
