it's maya time.

hey. i'm maya.

relatable dude list

as an Elder Zoomer and incredibly autistic only child, i grew up online and was able to experience the wild west that was the early internet. neocities feels almost nostalgic in the sense that it brings back the feeling of exploration present on the web those days. even tumblr kinda sucks now.

thus i made this to be a sort of personal hub and repository of... stuff? it's mostly for me, but if someone else gets something out of it, hell fuckin yeah dude.

i am the proud father of one (1!) lizard. he is a bearded dragon. his name is pogi (which means 'handsome' in tagalog)

my absolute DREAM lizard is an argentine tegu, but they are now illegal in FL and extremely expensive to own. i hope to one day own a kenyan zebra skink, an australian blue-tongue skink, leopard gecko, and some tarantulas. ideally, i would replace everyone on earth with a reptile including myself, but Big Pharma will never allow us to develop this technology.

i'm a very Busy Guy in between part-time school, full-time work, and small-time volunteering as i attempt to get into medical school (second time's the charm!), but having a website is a really good outlet and also a fun way to procrastinate. somehow, coding is more fun than cleaning your house. so i am here a lot.

um. i have a degree/thesis in neurobiology so if you have any strong opinions about the human brain (or anything on my obsession list tbh) PLEASE HMU i will talk about ANYTHING RELATED.
