I'm not too fond of social media, so I decided to be annoying here, where no one can leave comments that will bruise my huge, fragile ego. I thought it'd be fun to try making a website ever since I've first heard of NeoCities in late 2024 for the first time, and as ye can tell, I've been procrastinating for a very, very long time. Better late than never!

My hobbies:

• Art. Doesn't matter what kind, but I like drawing and painting with oils. Sometimes I do digital art too. Currently I'm focusing on character design, but I'm trying to get better at doing environments and objects.
• Writing. I like designing characters and especially worldbuilding. I used to be more focused on fantasy, but my current interest lies in character-driven stories! I keep all of my old sketchbooks and concepts however, and maybe one day I'll rework my old projects!

My favourite things:
Films: Planet of the Apes (both series), The Dark Crystal, Amélie, Yellow Submarine, Head (1968), Die Nibelungen: Siegfried + Die Nibelungen: Kriemhilds Rache (1924), Austin Powers, Back to the Future, Napoleon Dynamite, The Shawshank Redemption
Series: Derry Girls, How to get to Heaven from Belfast, Lupin, Kai Duan (Reset), The Glory, Daily Dose of Sunshine, My Name is Earl, i used to like Stranger Things until that horrifically bad ending..., Squid Game...
Cartoons and Anime / Manga: One Piece, JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, Keroro Gunso, Hunter x Hunter, Naruto, My Little Pony G3 and G4, Filly Funtasia, LEGO Ninjago, Popee the Performer, The Amazing World of Gumball, Trolls, House of Mouse, Ducktales 2017, The Legend of the Three Caballeros
Games: Five Nights at Freddy's, Five Nights at Treasure Island (and fangames), Slendytubbies, My Singing Monsters, Spore, Wobbledogs, Sid Meier's Civilisation VI, Starbound, Horsey Game, Bloons TD 5 and Bloons TD 6, ToonTown
Books / Comics: Roll of Thunder, Hear my Cry (by Mildred D. Taylor), Our Permanent Vacation (by Raven Lyn Clemens)
Other: Animatronic FECs (Chuck E. Cheese, Rock-Afire Explosion, SallyCorp, etc.), Ratboy Genius, Countryballs (not Countryhumans fuck outta here with that.)

I went to a Showaddywaddy concert in Cork! Oh, they were brilliant, I say. Romeo Challenger waved at me at the end, yay!
So, basically, I've never been to Cork Opera House before so I was quite nervous. All previous music shows I've gone to had been in Wexford, and while I don't live there, it's a far smaller place and much easier for myself to feel comfortable in. Before that though, we went to a Chinese restaurant and let me say, the food was brilliant. I had roast duck with orange sauce and chips - I know chips aren't very Chinese, but you know, this is Ireland. And I don't like rice all that much, boiled or fried.
The show itself started at 20:00 with an, I believe, Northern Irish musician. He was great in the meantime and I loved his presence, he seemed like a very kind man. He was also pretty funny and had a good voice. Showaddywaddy started at roughly 20:35. And oh my.
I wasn't big into Showaddywaddy before this, I'd only heard a few songs thanks to my mam who is a fan, but they blew my socks off. They were so upbeat, cheerful, funny and their presence was so infectious! For the first time in a very long time, I felt comfortable getting up and just dancing and enjoying myself without fearing I'd be judged. I'll definitely remember this show simply because of that. They were jumping all around, dancing, shouting, singing and playing, it was so fun and honestly, impressive to watch; and their coloured suits were super fun and kitsch. I loved it! I definitely recommend for anyone into goofy, kitsch, campy 50s and 60s themed stuff. I'd be very happy to see them next time they come around to Ireland and maybe even England. :)
