Note to self: make this pretty later

About me:

Hello there!

I'm yaskee (written in lowercase), an 18 year old dutch-bosnian, currently in high school in austria. (i guess you could call me mr. europewide✨)
I've been creating things in my free time for almost 10 years, ranging from digital art, to miniatures, little computer programs, game assets, typefaces, and as of recent, websites!

As of recent, my urge to share my work with others has lead me to create (and improve) this website. What used to be a 90s encrusted, poorly written crud of a site will now be used for slightly more productive purposes. Not just for my projects, but also for my personal mental health, as I struggle to talk about myself and my interests with others, and feel more comfortable expressing myself here. I hope you don't mind that :]

Everything on this website (HTML, CSS and some JS) was handcoded by me without any frameworks. ...not that the lack of framework usage is a selling point for my site, just thought it would be important to declare that. i have nothing against the use of frameworks!👍

Facts about me:

  • she/her
  • INTJ-T
  • cookie day: 28.03.2007
  • fluent in english, german, serbocroatian, HTML and CSS (working on dutch and JS now!)
  • very socially anxious (and anxious in general)
  • loves giving names to inanimate objects
  • is obssessed with gradients
  • chronic hypochondriac

Other things I like/do:

  • sandwiches
  • music!!!!!!!!!
  • riding my bike (her name is sieve)
  • techolgologogly
  • optical discs
  • sunsets
  • old/indie web
  • this

➣why "yaskeepants"?

I went through many, many usernames, but all of them had one thing in common: the name "jaski" was always in them, which was how i referred to myself in onine circles. Slowly, but surely, it transitioned from "jaski" to "yaskee", to make the pronounciation for english-speakers more clear. (i was called "jazz-key" by some...)

As for the "pants"... i dunno, i just really like spongebob

➣why does this website exist?

This website exists as an outlet for me to document and share my creations in all stages of their creation, aswell as write about my interests and personal observations during my journey through life.

Why not? Why would I live a life of depression if it obviously feels bad? I mean, it can get hard, especially recently..

What makes you smile?
Oh, so many things: silly and/or thought-provoking youtube videos, websites of individual people (a lá indie web), me building things in my room, eating really good food, having a nice walk or bike ride, hanging out with close firends or family, writing "essays" that a collective 14 people will ever read fully; I can never get enough of life.

I like to pretend that I'm a fast typer, but because I suck at typing, I make a lot of spelling mistakes and brainfarts in the form of text (like spelling optical as "optacle").
