New Design!

Recently I purchased a new Macbook Pro, which I named Hermes after the Futurama character, and I love it (my iPhone is named Leelu after the narwhal, so I thought I should stick with the theme). I have dinner with Hermes, I look forward to coming home from work just to be with Hermes, and I enjoy making public appearances in cafes with Hermes. I often read over and try to memorize his specs, just as I would do with any Facebook crush’s profile.

I thought we should work on a project together, so I sat down a month ago and designed this site. I would count this as a re-design, but that would imply that my previous layout was an actual attempt at design, when it was really me pasting a bunch of Textpattern tags in a textarea.

I’m still ironing out the kinks! And I’m sorry PC people– this site has only been tested on a Mac. I spend far too much time in Parallels at work so I’m rather tired of it by the time I get home.

Hi, I'm Mindy. People who meet me and then happen to stumble upon my blog are usually surprised that I have things to say because I'm quiet. Yes, I actually have thoughts. I have feelings and emotions too, believe it or not. more ↓

People who know me will say that I’m loud, too nice for my own good, and show signs of someone with a mild case of autism.

I grew up with two older brothers and no friends, which means my childhood was spent bouncing between PC, NES, and Playstation games. I consider myself a casual gamer– I never leave home without my DS. My favorite video game character will always be Quina Quen from Final Fantasy 9.

Once upon a time, I studied abroad in Paris and loved it so, so much. I think about Paris on a bi-hourly basis. I now live in San Francisco, but hope to move to New York someday.

The name of my website comes from a Teen Girl Squad episode.

I love pugs, Kinder Eggs, traveling, and shy people.

I don’t like spiders, horseradish, driving, and being shy. less ↑
