A Little House Cleaning
The following article is a message to the readers of the website known as The Cleveland Curse now known as The Cleveland View. This article contains little content regarding Cleveland sports. However, I recommend all viewers of this website read the article for an update on the state of The Cleveland View. Thank you.
First things first, yes I am indeed still alive! However, due to an erratic schedule over the past few months my attention to the site here has suffered or more accurately put disappeared. The down-low on my absence can be summed up as follows.
Considering the last article I posted was on April 27th, right at the conclusion of my spring semester I can surely say preparing for exams effected my dedication to this site. As the cliché goes… it’s all about getting your priorities in order. To elaborate, after a hefty week of exams I quickly began my summer classes. For those of you unaware, summer classes in college are eighteen weeks of work shoved in to a bulky six week mess for all involved. Multiply that equation by two courses and you have my life for the entire month of May until the middle of June. Oh, we also can’t forget my part time job either. Needless to say these “responsibilities” distracted me from my little project here.
At the same time, I’m sure you’re wondering why I did not return after the conclusion of summer classes in the third week of June. Answer: On June 17th, I turned 21 years old. As a result, I had a great trip to Las Vegas for a week. Following that trip, I began preparing for the week long ordeal that was my sister’s wedding on July 18th (By the way, it was great!).
Upon returning from the wedding and back to some sort of normalcy I soon realized fall semester was quickly arriving. Under normal circumstances this wouldn’t have been a big deal. However, this August, I just happen to be moving to Orlando, Florida and transferring to the University of Central Florida. Due to this, the past three weeks of my life have been filled with as much paper work, applications, and bureaucracy as any normal person can deal with.
Luckily, for both the readers and me this hectic phase of my life is almost back to some sort of normalcy. In the next two weeks I will be completing my move, beginning fall classes, and hopefully be finding a new job to help pay for the mountain of expenses that lies ahead of me. Wish me luck!
On a separate note, some of you may be wondering about all the changes to the site. The easiest way I can some it all up is that I was not and am still not 100% happy with the format in which I try to deliver the readers with information. The problem is most of the things I would like to fix are just financially out of reach for me for the time being. Despite this, I (with the help of some loyal friends) was able to decide on a name that suits the message I want to get across for the readers. At the same time, the new name and design shows an original and independent idea that hopefully all my readers can appreciate.
All in all, expect to see plenty of changes in the next few months in terms of site content and quality. I really have a passion for what I plan to accomplish with this blog and hope that each and every one of you reading this can support this site like we all support our Browns, Cavs, and Indians no matter how good or bad it gets! Thanks for all the support and if you have any comments please feel free to post them here on the website or email me.
