Hello! I haven't been able to update the blog lately, mainly because I have been playing Maplestory (an MMORPG that is SO addicting). Anyways, I'm planning on getting back to the blogs again, and since my last blog, I have gotten two interviews from two prestigious companies!

Created my logo for my blog! which gains influence from Steph Curry's logo which is a 30 (his number) and SC (his initials). This logo is supposed to look like a O and a G, which kind of goes with the name of my blog (villOG) and means "Original Gangster" in my dictionary.
