My main language is Javascript. Javascript has been my constant companion since I started learning programming (around 2019). Although now I mainly use Typescript, and rarely write in raw Javascript these days.

My dream has been to create something useful for people. But, I'm bad to actually evaluate the outcome of my projects, and because of it I have been repeatedly, countless of time (literally) building and abandoning projects, that some I had invested weeks or months in. But nevertheless, each failed project has taught me more about the necessity of keeping things simple and constantly evaluating the long term outcome. I will keep chasing my dream.

I can speak 4 languages, including my local dialect (Ngapak). I am native to Indonesian, have since childhood exposed to English, and recently studying in a university in Tokyo (courses are entirely in Japanese). But, I never feel fluent in either language. Maybe because my brain can't keep up with the sheer amount of linguistic data I need to process every day; or simply because I have been living alone that I have less time to talk with people.

I love astronomy since my childhood. I love to watch science videos and read science articles. But, since I am using English mainly to ingest those topics, I can't, in real-time, map those knowledge when I talk using other than English. It's sad. I want real friends that I can dump my knowledge in, or just simply joking around, in the language I comfortable speaking in. Maybe I will just endure this and just excercise more in the target language my friends are speaking.

I also recently been deeply fascinated with art, especially music, and math, since those are universal languages that all humans can understand, and to express something that can't be expressed with verbal languages. But, because of my technical background I only have little time to invest in learning those. Although recently I have been nudging myself by joining a vocaloid circle in my campus. I hope I can do art more.

Living in Japan has since been hard for me as a foreign student. Managing classes with my scholarship's 28h-a-week obligatory part-time is tiring. But, I am grateful of the predictability of the schedule, and I managed to get used and do something productive every day.
