Update

After my blog-sharings, time to actually tell what have I been up to for the past 1,5 months :)

Shortly, that would be saying "See you later!" to these people:


and these people:


and these people, fitting all of them into this I would probably need a one square meter picture:


And saying hello to so so sooooo many more people that are speaking my native language.

Yes, I am back in Lithuania.

I don`t do exciting stuff as I did while I was abroad, but I am pretty busy. Studying for my driver's license, meeting friends, family, recovering lost connections, reading local newspapers, watching reality shows on TV, re-discovering the beauty of my country again, working on some private business idea, reading all the books my A`dam friends gave me for my farewell, attending AIESEC Alumni meeting, pampering myself and trying to get a job... It's all fine.

The only thing I am missing right now, is direction. As they say, when you don`t know the goal, it's difficult to score. What I want to do with my life? Should I study now or later? Which career I want to choose? Which industry? Which country? Or maybe become a nomad and travel the world? Or maybe just get married? It seems I've been thinking of this for quite a while, but the answer is not there yet, or it is changing every couple of days :) The time in hometown will be consolidation time. It will last as long as it has to last. Although I do want to spend time doing meaningful things.

Becoming an Advanced Blogger in 4 Weeks

Apparently it`s not possible for me :)

Yeah, I`ve been quiet for a while. Thought my blog needs a fresh look, so downloaded artsy-fancy blog skin and tried to upload it. Looks nice in IE, but not on my beloved FireFox. I may not care, but I remember how I hate it when i open a blog, which has header way off the rest of the layout, a big empty space before the top post actually starts, or having to scroll left for two times to actually see the text! Been playing with some code over there with that lovely template, but no luck yet. The current standard refreshment is temporary. I couldn't even choose the standard Blogger Denim one, just because of it having a nomadlife.org address. Ugh!

Not giving up yet, but maybe there is anyone who would like to help me? ;) please :]

Meanwhile for those who are looking for new looks/improvements/widgets for your blogs - here are some useful sites. And if you are better with coding than me :)

Blogger Templates - not only templates, but also tips and cool small thingies for your blog, e.g. sudoku puzzle.
Blog Tutorial - gives support in editing your blogger template, add your own design elements.
Free Blog Templates - some very stylish ones! Esp the chocolate one... Yum!
ProBlogger - Make money by blogging? Why not?

I've been also thinking about some content and context changes in my blog, been brainstorming for a bit. I just feel there is so much that I would like to share, but it`s still looking for it's visual form. So stay tuned, good stuff coming up.

And together with those words - blogger just rejected showing picture in next post! Well you will have to wait for an update for another day :)
