I want to be the very best...

Post by Destinie »

You knew that was coming, right?

Hi-ho, everyone! I'm Destinie and for those of you who are new, I'm the communications admin here at Amassment. I've been working hard with the other admins to get the forums in top shape. (Props to Masao, she's been working her tail off on this stuff!)

Anyways, I own Love-gala.org and Nyarth.net. I had started doing fansites way back when, 1999, I think? I've always been really intrigued by the internet and the boundless possibilities and challenges in web design. When we got our first computer at home and the first time I visited the internet, I said, "I want to learn how to do this!" So, here I am. I enjoy making shrines (though IRL I'm a little embarrassed by it, ha!).

My Real-Life alter-ego is a super busy User Experience Specialist/Graphic Designer/Illustrator at a small software company. (What is User Experience?) I love it. I love my job. I currently live with a 1yr old cat named "Tex" and am happily engaged to my BFF!~

I'm so glad to meet new people here and continue to have great times with current Amassment members. I hope you all love the new forums and feel free to reach out to me anytime!

Destinie!! You're engaged! I'd been wondering about that ever since I saw that one post at your and Patrick's tumblr. Congrats to you both, that's awesome. :D <33

I was the same way! Before I was making websites of my own, whenever I would visit a shrine I would think to myself, "I wish I could do that." The idea of making a website seemed impossible at that time, because I didn't know a thing about HTML. It's pretty funny when I look back on it now. xD
It's wonderful that you love your job! I don't think a whole lot of people can say that, heh.

I'm super excited about getting to work with you. :) I'm sure we'll all have lots of fun here.
If you're interested in time travel, meet me last Thursday.

Destinieee <3 I always see you as the Meowth lady haha because of that adorable icon x3 I love your site a lot especially the Meowth and The Godfather one since I used to be such a Pokemon fan (I couldn't keep up with 3rd generation and onwward orz) and I loved Meowth since he made me laugh and I LOVE the design for The Godfather~.

I was the same way too exactly after I saw Tea's The Killing Perfection Sesshoumaru site (I told her this too a month ago over on LJ when she came back) and without that site, I would have never considered in becoming a web designer. It's so amazing what we can do and when CSS3 comes out, it's going to be aweeeeesome~!

Congrats on being engaged AND for having a job you enjoy~! ^^
I accept your challenge, "high prince", but I am no general.

Hi Destinie!! :D It's nice to see a graphic designer getting a graphic design job - and loving it too! That's my ultimate goal :) Congratulations on your engagement as well! And I'd love to see pics! PICS OF YOUR KITTY! :D

I was the same way, when I first saw that people could make websites and showcase their love for their favorite characters, I wanted to do the same thing :)
