I first started off on Freewebs as freewebs.com/asianprideclub on July 17th, 2007. I was site builder until September 19th, 2007. Asian Pride Club was a joke among myself and my friends. It was one of those "you had to be there" sort of jokes so you wouldn't understand. hehe. I then found out about Freewebs randomly and decided it make it into a website just for my friends and I. I hadn't even known you could make a website! At first it was just a plain old crappy site builder with a bunch of useless crap that was funny and had something to do with being Asian but then I discovered HTML sites and wanted to be like them because it looked way better than site builders.
I then discovered sites like Ego Box and found out about layouts and HTML layouts. I got Paint Shop Pro and made my first ever layout which you can see: here. I really had no idea what I was doing when I made that layout because I had never heard of graphic design and anything to do with it. I just played around with buttons and made that piece of crap. I was really pleased with it though because I thought it was amazing for my first try. Please excuse me for the fact that it's Nick Jonas. I was in love with him in '07. hehe. I then made APC into a more bloggish and graphics site. It really sucked looking back and anyone who remembers my site from then will agree it sucked compared to now. I then kept going and making my site better and better. I worked so hard and made it into a decent blog site that provided visitor content.
Then on January 20th, AnMarie from Mystical Garden offered me hosting and I accepted. From there I continued to make my site bigger and better. Then on July 9th I wanted a change and wanted to change the site name from Asian Pride Club to something more appropriate. I knew my site would do so much better with a proper name, not something as strange with the words "Asian", "Pride", or "Club" in it, especially all together. So then I was watching Real World: Hollywood on MTV and the word "Hopeless" came to my mind because it was similar to Hollywood. Then "Thunder" came to my mind because there was a thunderstorm going on that day. And I put the two words together and came up with Hopeless Thunder! My site name is truly original and the only one out there because who else would put those two opposite words together? hehe.
And then on December 11th, 2008 Fay from Head Over Heels In Love bought me my domain. Without her my site wouldn't be possible because she has done so much and fixed so much of my problems. Hopeless Thunder, the domain, officially opened on December 17th, 2008 and still continues to grow and get better.
