Site should be fully responsive. If you have any issues, the link to contact me is below. I also plan on adding a high/low contrast black & white version of this theme in the late future o7

About


Hi! Call me Kumie. Feel free to use any pronouns if you have to discuss me for any reason... I'm a 20-year-old CS major minoring in Creative Writing & Management - if that helps show where my interests lie. I enjoy all kinds of art and sometimes indulge in creating it myself. My friends are much more prolific and talented than me – check them out! 😊

I have fun with coding, which is the primary purpose behind this site. If I remain motivated, the end goal for this site will essentially be more a collection of smaller sites about things I like (akin to “shrines” from what I’ve seen of this site’s culture?), and possibly some of my writing, rather than a necessarily cohesive blog.

I confess I don't find much appeal in the "old web" aesthetic, and I tend towards minimalism in my web design. To that end, I won’t have anything super flashy/blink-y, and I’ll try to keep things clearly labelled, easy to read, etc. Mainly out of laziness and a love for the pseudo-minimalistic aesthetic, but I do want to prioritize accessibility in my designing. I also genuinely find resizing my pages for smaller/larger screens to be a really engaging part of the page-coding process. If a page does not have a mobile-accessible version now, trust that it will in the near future! If you do find anything on my site difficult to engage with for any reason, please let me know right away.

Here's my neocities profile if anybody wants to reach out. I don't have a big social media presence - I try to keep my IRL and online stuff separate, so this is the best way to get to me. I'm not expecting that much engagement since I do tend to keep to myself, but I don't bite. And I'm usually down to talk ^__^

*** this page has some hover text, if it isn't obvious. Have fun trying to find them all, if you're into that sort of thing! ***

There will be a pagedoll here, once ArtFight ends and I can manipulate some of my friends into drawing me stuff >:)

Some Images


A screenshot of a visual poem, named 'Arrow Poem.' It consists of several black arrows pointing in various directions. If you follow their directions, they will lead you through the poem and out. A photograph of two women facing each other as if about to kiss. Their faces have been edited to be replaced with a brilliant flash of light. A photograph of Sam and Frodo from the Lord of the Rings movie. The two hobbits are pictured from the neck-up, exhausted and covered in grime. Frodo looks shell-shocked and stares directly at the viewer. Sam squints from behind Frodo's fingers, as the left side of his face is covered by Frodo's hand. A transparent gif of a 3D cartoon caterpillar wiggling back-and-forth. A screenshot of the game 'Alchademy.' It features one of the mergable items, a living carnivorous baby plant. It is smiling and drooling. A photograph of a baby pygmy falcon sitting next to a quarter. It is just bigger than the coin. A screenshot from the pixel game Mudborne. It shows three figures: a small purple frog wearing a crown, a larger anthropomorphic green frog, and an anthropomorphic blue crane wearing goggles. They are all knee-deep in teal water.
