Why Make A Blog At All?
January 15, 2025 - The Art of Not Communicating and Not Listening
A few hours ago, I made my way out of my school to go home. Usually, once I've said goodbye to everyone and gone out of the classroom, I don't go out of my way to talk with my classmates if I see them walking about.
I should've done the same thing today, except while I was commuting home I found myself staring down the eyes of one of my classmates. A guy I'm not all that friends with, and also a guy I have a big fat crush on. This rom-com ass writing.
In my stupidity, I waved at him simply to say goodbye. I thought he'd respond similarly, except he didn't say goodbye back to me.
He said [UNINTELLIGIBLE].
Yep. I have no idea what he said. It could've been him swearing me out for all I know, because I didn't ask him to repeat what he said afterwards. This leads me to one of the worst parts about, well, me — not only do I not communicate properly, I also can't do audio recognition for shit.
Often this leads to people getting annoyed at me for not knowing what they're saying or for some other related reason. It's really stupid on my end, yeah, but I'm trying to fix it.
In the mean time, I'll just keep playing HSR 3.0. I got E1 Herta in 30 pulls. Yay!

January 14, 2025 - Why Make A Blog At All?
So. I have a blog now. Welcome to the inaugural opening of The Dumpster, inspired by the fictional website of the same name from Hypnospace Outlaw! Yay!
Honestly, I'm having trouble thinking of what to talk about here. I don't do long blogs much, though I do update microblogs such as iMood, Status Cafe, and my very own weather channel occasionally, so I've decided to get very on-theme here and talk about why I made a blog in the first place.
There's some pretty obvious reasons. First of all, everyone has a blog. I want one too. It adds content to my site and gives me one more page to customize and edit to my liking. Cool, there's that, but how about the deeper reasons?
I think the main reason why I made a blog is to go in-depth about just... my everyday life. Often there's a lot of stuff I want to talk about, whether it's genuinely emotional or just the stupidest shit ever, and just as often I have to keep these thoughts to myself instead of talking to someone about it. In my blog, I can share these thoughts with y'all, and who knows, maybe you'll like it or disagree and hate me. Who knows. That's the fun of a blog, it's like a mystery box. What beliefs could this person be hiding behind their super cool HTML and CSS? Let's find out.
That's why I called my blog The Dumpster. I'm really just dumping my trash in here to reflect on and hoping you might find some gold in it.
Is the lesson to search for treasure in trash? Maybe. I'm not dissuading you from doing it. I've found some interesting stuff in trash. Have a digital Capri Sun while you're here.
