    I went to PAX East

    May 12, 2025 - By 

    This year, I decided to attend PAX East. It’s always been something I was interested in, but I never considered actually going because I wasn’t sure what I would get out of the experience. This year, my circumstances changed and I decided that I would take a trip down to Boston and see what PAX had to offer me. Turns out, it had a lot. The Event I arrived in Boston on Wednesday, the day before it was set to open. I timed my arrival so that I would arrive close to 4PM, which is the check-in time for the…

    NETASPA – A short recap for the anxious

    April 13, 2025 - By 

    I am a very nervous person. I’m good at masking and appearing otherwise, but I’m usually filled with a decent mix of apprehension, self doubt, anxiety, and fear. NETASPA was one of the first events I went to without a clear idea of what to expect, and it ended up better than I envisioned. When I go to any event, I research it heavily beforehand. I find maps and programs from previous years, I find people that have attended and read their experiences, and I try to make up a plan for how I’m going to handle the different aspects…

    2025 – What’s coming, and what’s already done?

    February 2, 2025 - By 

    Honestly there isn’t anything that’s “already done” except for a little crocheted bag and some prep for Sundered Doctrine, Destiny 2’s new contest dungeon, but I wanted to make the title longer than just “What’s coming.” Technically not false advertising. Anyway! My year is looking to be full of fun activities and events, and I’m looking ahead today to remind myself of my personal goals and also to be mindful of my project load – I’m already looking at more projects than last year, projects that are much bigger than my usual scarves and hand warmers, and I need to…

    2024 is over. Let’s say goodbye

    December 31, 2024 - By 

    2024 was a pretty big year for me. After unknowingly suffering the sedative side effects of a medication I was on for three years, a medication change brought back my motivation and got me started on projects that I had left far behind and mostly forgotten. I started socializing again and met amazing friends, and then I started reaching out and rediscovering some of my passions. 2024 was the year of crochet I finished a lot of projects in 2024. A lot. I started getting back into it with simple bags and the goal of reaching 12 projects by the…

  • Badgers - Crochet - Finished Object - Journey - Knitting - Video games - WIP

    Hello, it’s me! I have various categories!

    July 29, 2024 - By 

    If you’re here, you probably know me. If not, welcome! I’m not sure how you found me, but I hope something makes you smile. I’m Sems, and I like badgers. I also like crochet and video games. I stream sometimes, and I knit other times, but I keep coming back to games and hooks. I started crocheting 25 years ago, and I started gaming 15 years ago, and only within the last year have I started to take them seriously. This site (and the linked youtube channels) will just be a way for me to track progression, goals, and resources;…
