The Blog Begins

12 / 15 / 2025

hi. thanks for checking out my first blog entry (woohoo! woohoo! woohoo!)

i wanted to make a blog because ive been feeling really lonely and disconnected from my friends and community. now this is probably mainly because i just moved to a new country where i have 0 friends and 0 community, not to mention my language skills are not good enough yet to be able to get out and find my people…

but anyway, the loneliness started to eat at me so much i actually considered posting about my life on instagram! WHAT!!!! who have i become??? so i urgently needed to create a digital space outside of stinky apps for my personal expression. that is where this website comes in.

i started coding in 2023 so i could create a portfolio site of my work (which you can check out! even though im in the middle of redesigning it: robinfaye.com) but ever since then i’ve been feeling really stifled creatively regarding the design because i have to optimize it for phones (booooooo). so this website is where i get to do fun code that is only optimized for my monitor and browser! which means if youre anyone but me, this site probably looks kinda janky town usa.

im excited to share more with yall, i have so many ideas of big life event entries i want to make, so until next time!
