"Practice plus confidence equals success." - Dan Vasser
This is probably the most special landmark post that I'll ever write.... this is blog post #1,000!
Ever since I began using this blog page in October of 2006, I've been completely dedicated and committed to it. This page has been a massive part of my life for quite a while and I'm immensely proud of how very, very, very far it's come since it's inception. From my very first post, to my very first montage, and all the way up to this very moment as I sit here writing these very words: This blog page has been one of the most important things I've ever created.
For years to come, this page will surely be one of my crowning achievements, I'm sure, but all in all: It's been one hell of a ride getting to this point and I hope that all of you who've enjoyed this blog page will stick around to see what other tricks I've yet got up my sleeve for you guys to witness.
Thanks to everyone who's made the effort over the years to stop by this page for some reason or another, and most importantly: I want to thank everyone who's stuck with me through thick and thin ever since I started this page when I was only sixteen years old. It means a whole lot on a deeply personal level to me. So once more: Thank you.
Feeling wonderful as I finish this one-thousandth blog post, I thought it would be a nice little treat to take you guys on a sort of tour through the many eras of which this page has seen. But before I close this post up, I thought I'd keep the tradition of announcing my blog's current statistics as they stand as of right now....
