Update to WordPress 3.0

Should I update my blog to WordPress 3.0? I really want a new look for my blog but most of the available themes today are compatible only with the latest version of WordPress. I just saw this Basic theme from Elegant Themes and I think it’s perfect. Its layout is more or less similar with my current theme. The web design is simple, classic and there are different colors to choose from. It’s just disappointing because it wouldn’t work in version 2.5. I spent sleepless nights just trying to make it work – couldn’t count how many times I downloaded the theme and uploaded it to my FTP. I really had a hard time uploading the files because I’m officially blocked from my CPanel. The technical support told me my IP is not blocked but he’s lying. I couldn’t log on. I think they’re already pissed off with me because I asked for a password reset a hundred times already. So, now I have no choice but to use Filezilla. Anyway, I’m not sure if I could update my WordPress version by myself. I’m scared that I’ll just ruin everything. The instructions are complicated. I wish there is a better way to update to the recent version of WordPress.

Portia Fan

Aside from the lead character, Calista Flockhart, and Asian actress, Lucy Liu, Portia de Rossi is one of the many reasons why I was addicted with comedy-drama series Ally McBeal. I immediately liked her acting style when I first saw her on TV – she’s smart, witty and very pretty. At first, I couldn’t believe that she is gay because she’s so sexy and beautiful. I just believed it when I saw the videos of her wedding on youtube. She married Ellen de Generes, my favorite talk show host. I like Ellen’s sense of humor, she’s very funny :)

Honestly, I do not consider homosexual as a negative term. I don’t have a problem with gay people especially if they are as adorable as Portia :) In fact, I noticed that most of them are fun to be with and they’re not “plastic.” Most of the gay people I’ve met are very straightforward, they say what’s on their mind in a joking way which I appreciate much.

As I was searching for more photos of Portia and Ellen, I chanced upon this blog which is entitled gay Romania which is written in a foreign language, either Italian or French. I’m not sure. Good thing I have a google translator so I was able to translate the posts in English. I didn’t find any photos of Portia there but reading that blog reminded me that we all created equal.
