- this page serves as my way to introduce myself to you. - perhaps you find yourself wanting to know more about the - creator of this website, maybe you just like reading - about random folks on the internet, or maybe you see a - little of yourself in this site and want to see if reading - about me helps you understand yourself more. so, - let's talk about me, emma. -

- -

- i'm emma, i'm in my early 30s, i use she/her pronouns. - technology and the web have always been core interests - of mine. most of my life i've found community through - the web. i've felt most understood and accepted by - my fellow neighbors on the web. this website serves as a - love letter to the expression i've wanted so often to - share with the world. the burning love i want to light - up the sky with. in my personal life i cam currently - navigating what it means to be me, and recently that - means i have come to understand i am a trans woman. - parts of this website with time will showcase the parts - of my identity i wish to share with you. - so that not only i feel understood, - but maybe you do to <3 -

- -

- much of my adulthood feels like i've been catching up - with things other folks figured out about themselves - in their teens and early 20s. i don't mind though, - i'm simply happy i'm figuring these things out about - myself. i find that knowledge and understanding of myself - usually comes through knowledge and understanding of other - people, as most of my life i've not really socialized with - anyone that i would say really understands me -

- -

- i don't mean this in a "no one gets me" kind of way. - genuinely i feel misunderstood until i've begun to seek - out communities and people that see things and feel about - things, in similar ways to me. i know, shocking i'm sure. - emma's learned she has to surround herself with people - who get her if she wants to feel understood, you'd be - surprised how far one can go in life without learning - this -

- -

- i have a cat, named baxter. maybe you've seen his - homepages, maybe you've seen me gush about him in the - 32-Bit Cafe discord server. whatever the case, it must be - said that i love my cat so much. him and i have been - through a lot together, and we look out for each other as - any human and pet that has formed a bond would. he knows - me well and i know him well. we both don't like loud - noises, nor do either of us really like dogs barking. - we both look forward to meals, though i think he has a - better appetite than i do most of the time. he knows the - value of relaxing, something i've only learned recently. - i hope to one day master his understanding of being - present, and being in the moment. throughout my life i've - had some wonderful pets that have allowed me to learn just - as much about myself as i did them. from birds, - to a rabbit, to wonderful dogs. you might like to read - more about my life with animals - here -

- -

- music has been a big part of my life, both playing and - listening to it. the creative process of making music - and the discovery of new music to listen to is a healing - process in itself that has helped me through much of my - life. my tastes have shifted greatly as i've grown, and - i've come to love music i never once thought i would as - an angsty young teenager. you can read more about music - and my relationship with it here -

- -

- in terms of other arts, i'm most drawn to photography, - and was quite into it as a teenager. i had a 35mm slr as - during the time film was still easy to get developed at - a store and film slr cameras were very cheap 2nd hand. - i would really like to revisit this hobby, in particular - due to a new found interest in birding. i'd very much like - to capture photos of all the fun birds that stop by during - the day for a quick snack. i'd also like to return to - taking photos of my most favorite subject, flowers. - flowers are quite beautiful, and the high resolution of - digital photography makes for stunning images. - you can read more about my history with photography and - how i want to pursue it - further here -

- -

- an early love of mine was computers and technology in - general. i have fond memories of looking at circuit - boards and imagining little cities full of streets and - buildings all connected working together. computers and - technology fed an early developed need to always know more - and to go further with understanding. there was always - something new to learn in a wide variety of topics. i - eventually pursued a degree in tech and worked for many - years in tech support, eventually parting ways with full - time work at the advice of a doctor. i still find a - fondness for tech, and am currently learning javascript as - i've always loved the puzzle solving programming offers. - if you'd like to learn more about my relationship with - technology throughout my life, you can do so - here -

- -

- i think that's enough about me, i hope you've taken a - look at those links sprinkled throughout or maybe saved - them for later. if you wouldn't mind, i'd like to know - more about you! if you're up for it, you can send me an - email, located here -
