overall, i'd say things you did on the site don't really make much sense.
why is there a gameboy? what are you showing this for? if it isn't really connected to the site, it doesn't belong. the cutout pieces of paper don't really fit with the clean web2.0ish style...although i understand that it's the cool thing to do things by hand in a rough style, i don't feel like this is successful because it seems rushed. the about and contact links, if they are links, don't go anywhere. your copyright info is crammed in the bottom left corner and follows as you scroll, but is that necessary? the space to the left of the recent posts and work seems odd. pay attention to alignment of edges and shapes, think more about your color palette, and really just keep experimenting and watching what successful designers do and as why. i think it is common for younger designers to jump in and just start creating without a plan. i did it, still struggle with that mindset...but design fails its objective without having a well thought out goal, conceptually and visually. keep at it.
