hello, welcome to my "about me" page. the page all about me, the webmaster of BLY
also known as ai (eye)

BLY has been a hobby website of mine since 2023. but my interest in web design dates back to 2018. at the time, i had been looking for a place to host my HTML visual novel (which never saw the light of day), but didn't know much about coding or web hosts at the time. then, i stumbled down the rabbit hole of thousands of people all with a personal website of their own, which i thought were extinct from the web!

BLY is a project i don't plan on getting rid of any time soon. the website will grow and change along with me and my interests. almost all of my interests are (or will be) represented on my website.

so about me... i'm a forever unemployed law & anthro student. i don't live a very eventful life behind the screen, mostly playing videogames, collecting, and creating things. i'm in a relationship with my lovely boyfriend of whom i plan to live the rest of my life with. he's one of my only reasons to be excited for the future, since i've never been very optimistic about the future until meeting him.

besides coding, i like to spend my time dancing, arguing w my dog, and sketching.
most of which i keep to myself, since i don't really consider myself to be an "artist."

ever since i was a kid i liked to express myself. i never had many friends due to my eccentricity, so i spent most of my time alone. this developed into horrific agoraphobia, and because of that, i remain a bit of a loser.
i think having a personal website is the perfect hobby for someone who enjoys expressing themself while also going on tangents about the things they like. it's not like anyone will read between the lines...?

i enjoy collecting things! i have collections for various things including (but not limited to) stuffed animals, academic art, first edition novels, 16-19th century illustrations of . anything i guess, stickers, keychains and charms, videogame consoles and other old tech devices!

speaking of animals, i have and have had many throughout my life. people in my personal life consider me an animal mother, it's the one thing i spend most of my time doing offline. the most pets i've had at once were about 13.. most of which are dogs and horses. i currently am the sole caretaker of one dog though, but she makes my life enough of a living hell that one would presume i own at least 45 dogs. but my all time favorite animal has (so far) been... spotted hyenas!
hyneas are truly the most feminist of animals... i think they do their best to maintain their role in the ecosystem, but also within their own social circles they remain weary of newcomers. especially the women. i commend it. their fur also looks insanely flufy and nice to pet.

well, besides my interests, my friends might describe me as passionate and driven. i don't really have many goals in life, but when i have my eye on something, you bet i'll accomplish it.
i wouldn't call myself a positive or optimistic person, more like a realist. i don't have any wild dreams, but i don't think of myself as someone who can't accomplish anything either.
i try my best when i want to do something, and i'm not bothered if i fail.

they might also describe me as genuine and honest. i'm not one to lie about myself or exaggerate for the sake of being well liked or popular. being honest is important to me.
though i feel as if saying this will make you think i am lying, guess that can't be helped...

oh, and i guess that's another notable thing, i'm pretty unbothered by people's opinions of me and i think that's an important aspect of my personality.

i'm never bothered or offended if people don't like me or disagree with me. in fact, i encourage honesty. i personally wouldn't want to live in a world where everyone loves everybody and everything and there's no conflict ever, since conflict is what makes us value things that are most important to us!

that's it for now, thanks for reading about me.
i'm not the best at writing bios, there's just so much to someone's character it's hard for me to write down in one cohesive entry...
i have other pages here which you can check out on the side bar, things that don't belong in this long paragraph of a bio. you can find out more about my interests and hobbies, dislikes, peeves, and check some of my quiz results if you're interested.
