\nmaking crazy gifs and starting my new online homepage. A lot has happened in the past decade!
\nIn 2009, I was in High School and just wanted to have a homepage. It all started as a Freewebs website (remember those?)
\nThen I got real web hosting and my first web domain matthewweb.net, followed by furmannet.net, and finally the domain
\nI really wanted matthewfurman.net (Mom wouldn\u2019t let me register my full name back then).<\/span><\/p>\n
\ncreated a digital scrapbook of my life. It\u2019s kinda fun to look back at the pages I created
\nyears ago and look back on what life was like for me. A lot of \u201coh yeah I forgot about that\u201d and
\n\u201cWTF did I make this for?!?\u201d is preserved on this server.<\/span><\/p>\n
\ndespite my silly pranks, I\u2019ve somehow managed to not get fired at Staples, I\u2019ve been with them for 4 (almost 5) years now,
\nI\u2019ve moved back home to New York and now own my own home. Adopted\/Rescued 3 wonderful cats (my
\nfur babies). I\u2019ve reconnected with old friends, made some new friends, and met a few people who turned out to be
\nfrustrating, but valuable life lessons. While I\u2019m still the same silly fun loving Matthew I\u2019ve always been,
\nI\u2019ve grown up in a lot of ways and at my still young age of 24, I\u2019ve acquired a few gray hairs (not particularly thrilled about them,
\nbut I\u2019ve earned each and everyone of them) I\u2019m excited to see what the next 10 years will bring.<\/span><\/p>\n
