Wow that's a lot of stuff achieved in this blog in 10 years! I wish I could post some awesome content for the blog's 10th anniversary but the big stuff I ordered is still not finished so it didn't arrive on time. But once that I got it, I will make that nice post.

I'm planning to clean, re-paint and re-organize my work area. I plan to post that too because my room/work area is getting a new and mature look.

The Petrified Star logo that I used on the title graphic in this post got refreshed. It's not obvious but it looks more even on its five points. Of course the upcoming photos the will be uploaded and posted on this blog will have a new watermarks based on the new logo.

The current look/design of the blog site will be retained except for the Randomly Random Blog title graphic. I'm gonna change that soon but it will look kinda similar to the current one.

Now that the blog is now 10 years old, I still gonna upload stuff here because like I said in this post that this blog is part of my life as a hobby. 

Fun fact: I've been blogging since 2004. It started as a college project where I need to create a blog site. I randomly picked a "Food Critic" theme for my blog project. I found blogging to be fun so I started blogging for real as a hobby. I started posting on MySpace blog, then Multiply and now here in Google's Blogger.

So I would like to thank you guys - fans and random new people who just found this blog site - for the support! Now on to the 15th year, 20th and beyond!

Cheers!
