Hell yeah markdown
Now we're getting somewhere.
Realistically I'm just gonna use html, but this is nice, too :3
First (real) feels
Idk, it's been a few late nights, but I'm really happy I'm here with my friends, and that my gay ass has managed to find so many wonderful people in this last year. I'm coming up on the one year anniversary of me moving out here, itself only a few years out from my egg cracking, and this still hardly feels real. I mean as of now, I'm:
- surrounded by new friends
- working in semiconductors (despite lack of any formal CS education)
- finally in the body I always should have had
And most of that was through spending countless hours grinding, hoping to make the impossible possible. A lot of it luck and privilege, no doubt. But all the same, none of this was a sure thing. Who I am now is a collaborative effort. But I'm glad. I never imagined back then that I'd be the person I am now λ_λ
Idk, I've just been really in my head these past couple weeks. 2022 comes very close to being the most transformative year in my life, even if I feel like I have to give that spot to 2019 by default (egg-crack).
