If you're reading this, congratuations on discovering the best website on the Internet! I go by many names, the most recent being Yung Wake. I'm a beatmaker and an aspiring musician; since 2020 I've been making beats under the Goobsguy moniker, and I also plan on releasing stuff as Yung Wake soon. I also dabble in art and development, web dev in particular (hence this site).
The beautiful thing about a personal website is that you can put literally whatever you want on it. This one isn't too off-the-wall compared to other ones; here you'll find info about me and my interests, some of my content/projects, and of course all the miscellanous ramblings that I don't know what else to do with.
Check out the navbar above to start exploring!
- "None of the social media websites really did it for me when it comes to customization. lots of ideas that I simply can't get across properly with just words and a changeable banner."
- ~Me, 2023
Since I was a kid, the Internet, and the act of creating things on it, have been sort of a hyperfixation of mine, for better or for worse. Being a 2003 baby I experienced a healthy mix between the modern Internet and the cool old web stuff. I liked the old web better, the creativity and individuality of it all was nothing short of magical in my young mind.
Of course, as I got older, everything shifted to toxic mainstream "social media" websites, which seem to get worse the longer they exist. Eventually I discovered Neocities, and the Web 1.0 revival in general, which if you're on this website is probably something you're at least heard of. If you ask me this kind of stuff is exactly what the Internet was made for; it brings me back to my youth, and the good old days when the Internet was actually fun.
Basically, this site is one of the only places where I can comfortably and truly express myself without being dragged into some negative bullshit like what social media seems to be built upon.
It also helps me to refine/practice my development skills, so that's a major bonus.
