hii there!! on the internet, i'm known as kandi! ♡ welcome to my little slice of the web, where i collect bits of memory, emotion, & glitter & try to weave them into something that feels like home. i'm a soft-hearted scorpio sun, scorpio moon, gemini rising with a mind full of nostalgic pixels, dreamy clouds, & weird little creatures. i can be both a lone cryptid or a hyper, chatty gremlin, depending on the day. this site is my dreamy hideout on the web: a space for expression, connection, & whatever else spills out of my brain at 3 am.

i started this site as a digital sanctuary... part diary, part shrine, & part pixelated portal. i'm someone who's always felt a bit in between- in between timelines, aesthetics, expactations. the old web always felt like a place where that in between-ness was allowed, & even celebrated. i guess i'm here trying to bring some of that back. it's my rebellion against the scroll, the algorithm, the pressure to monetize or optimize every inch of yourself. i just want to create stuff that feels good & true. growing up in the early 2000s, neopets was my favorite escape when life took unexpected turns.

somethings i love: dreamy electronic music, going for walks in the woods, star gazing, going to underground raves, collecting physical media (esp ps2 & nintedo titles!!!), & the smell of old electronics. i'm currently learning how to DJ & produce music- not just to make people dance, but to create little worlds they step into. i love rave culture with my whole heart: the sense of freedom, the joy in weirdness, the way strangers become family under flashing lights & big sound. there's something sacred about it, like everyone's walls melt & for a moment, we're just glowing souls moving through time together...

this site is also a soft record of becoming - of healing slowly, feeling deeply, & letting go of the version of myself that only knew how to survive. i've spent a lot of my life hiding the things that made me weird, emotional, or "too much", but now i'm leaning to see them as sacred.

so if you're into dreamy internet spaces, healing journeys, getting lost in music, or just being a bit feral with your feelings, you are more than welcomed here!!! may this page remind you that softness is strength, being strange is sacred, & you deserve to take up space exactly as you are. :3 ♡
