General News: Hello everyone!
I've been a bit absent, so I thought I'd come here to let you know what I've been up to.
So, first and foremost, in regards to the website, which is the most important part: every time you see me online for the past 2-3 weeks, I'm
working on the Web Avatar. And its release might not take much longer! Expect some updates pretty soon!
In terms of my personal life, it's been a rollercoster.
I had my thesis to hand in for my masters. The deadline was yesterday actually. I finished everything last week, but I had to fix a lot of small mistakes and review everything over and over again. Right now I have an average of 15,78 (average of 16) out of 20. That's great, but I want to end my average on an actual 16, and the thesis, for those who aren't familiar, gives A LOT of points. And I want that, I want to finish colege with a 16,5 (average of 17) and get an amazing score on my thesis, ensuring a good job for me in the future as well.
So I spent the entire week reviewing the 196 pages of content I wrote for the past year over and over again.
As for health... I might leave for a little while somewhere in february, just for 2 or 3 weeks while I recover. I haven't said anything yet, but I went into surgery at the end of 2022 and did the first year of my masters without being able to sit down at all. This is something I don't usually like to talk about, because it was a really harsh 5-month recuperation in which things I loved,
LOVED to do were deprived from me, like walking to college, which was 1 hour away from the train station. I love walking, I love P.E in general, so it was a huge bummer for me to be driven to college and feeling like I was forcing my parents and grandparents to wake up earlier just to take care of me.
Now... I've been on and off the hospital every few weeks because the wound never fully healed. It closes but reopens after just a few weeks, with the record being 2 months once from mid-november up to my birthday.
After 2 long years, I will be submitted into surgery because the first one wasn't properly taken cared of, and residue from my problem remains here, causing this problem. So I will probably disappear next year for a few weeks, but I'll be sure to let the news in the website flow and leave the minis and mods taking care of everything.
I still feel pretty sad with the whole thing and I've known this for 2 months now, but I kept delaying the reveal here because I wasn't sure how I felt towards the whole thing. Believe it or not I cried like crazy when I found out... it means going over the whole proccess again in which I won't even be able to sit... just lie down for the first 2 weeks doing nothing and ensuring I'll remain in the same position even in my sleep...
So yes, I hope you enjoyed this TED talk.
Needless to say, that I didn't lie on those topics that asked me how I felt or whenever someone asked me if I was ok. Believe it or not I've been "fine". And despite this and the treatments every few days/weeks (depending when it opens and closes), I'm so used to it by now that it's nothing for me. So I'm not sad or anything now, I'm fine and happy with my life, generally speaking.
