Welcome to

I just wanted to wish everyone a Merry Christmas (or Happy Holidays depending on what you celebrate). I hope that you all have a wonderful holiday and enjoy the time away from work, school, your business, or whatever to enjoy time with your family and to relax.

Take some time for your self and get ready for a big year in 2007!

Dorm Room Biz is back up finally! You can head to the site to read a little more about what happened and why it took so god awful long to get it back up.

Keep reading for more posts coming soon!

This is killing me. My main website, Dorm Room Biz, is down. It has been down for the past couple days. Somehow I did not get notified that the domain was about to expire and it did on Dec. 6 or 7th. So I immediatey renewed it and the registrar told me that it would take 24 hours to come back in my account and be active. Here we are 3 days later and the site is still down!

I am sweating as I wait for this renewal to go through so that I can get the site back up. Although AdSense is the only revenue that I make from the site, I still figure that it has cost me a couple bucks each day it has been down, loosing me the money that it cost to renew it. GAH!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, wish me luck as I wait for it to reappear. And if you happen to see if come back up before I do and can get a post on Dorm Room Biz, send me an email to let me know it is up: chris [at] chrispund.com.

Thanks!!

Finals week is here..damn.

I have 5 finals to take, 1 of which is a presentation and 1 is a one page essay on two books that we read, the other 3 however will be the normal multiple choice, fill in the blank, and essay questions.

Anyway, you probably wont see much action from me over the next week on this blog as I will be studying for my finals and also trying to finish up a client project by the end of the week. More to come on this later!

Best of luck to you other college students out there studying for finals!

Finally after a very long time, I am just about finished with a client website design. We started the project back in August and are just finishing it mid december, thats just about 4 months to the day. What was the hold up you may ask? The client supplying the content, no suprise there! Getting the content from a client for their own website is always a long and hard process to do. I have heard many designers/companies say that they do not start any actual designing until they have all the content from the client and know exactly where to put it, this may be the direction that I start heading.

The original timeline for this project was mid August to end of September. About 5 1//2 weeks…plenty of time. I was on time with all of my parts and deadlines, but it just took an extra two months to get the content from the client!! Anyway, I just wanted to get that off my chest. Now I will have one less project to work on as this up coming week is Finals week and I probably wont have much time to work on any projects for a few days.
