about me

my name is rina . born in 1998 and i come from europe. i am a self-described whimsical mess :3. a professional overthinker, too.

i looove thick, heavy hoodies, especially the ones i can pull down and make them "eat" my hand!! i enjoy this, even if it sometimes makes me feel slightly too warm ^__^ ! that feeling alone (warmness) is truly special.

below is what exactly what i mean by "eat" my hand and the exact kind of fit i like :3

i love it so so so much. so, is it practical? not exactly! but that's idiosyncrasy, right? tho, im not rly insecure abt myself, or anything. i don't "hide" in hoodies. i jst hate having my hands "naked", and under certain conditions, i can "feel" the air literally, and i hate that lol.

i've been online for as long as i know for myself, even before having my own computer! i was around 7-8 years old when i got my first computer. even for mid-2000s standards that computer was not powerful, but it was MINE. and back then, it was all that mattered.

i kept reading other people's 'about me' pages, talking about how they, before getting sick of it, tried to chase good SEO, or good searchability, or to be "professional". but dunno, i never truly cared. i had a website on-and-off since 2016, and i've never tried to look too approachable. i always thought of it as boring...

i don't trust people that don't have at least one laptop sticker. who are you keeping it so plain for? my favorite animal is a cat.

if you ever wondered what my favorite drink is, it's monster strawbery dreams! name a more perfect drink, i'll wait. and yes, i know they're bad for you idgaf.
below you can see what technically counts as a selfie of myself. although yeah, it doesnt show much, and basically you can see nothing.

if youre a russian bot, because for some reason those love hitting my website, i have a beautiful handwritten message for you, too

me irl sorta thing, you know the drill :p they're me and im them. i will not elaborate!

why this domain!?

riri is a nickname of rina. my name is rina. .my is malaysian domain name.. but i am not from malaysia. DOTmy here, as in my place, my site, etc. quite similar to how people use .me. there is really no deeper meaning then that. it's just meant to represent the ownership, a personal space. my, as in meaning of mine if it makes sense! you're supposed to read it as an open-ended sentence. riri my [blank]...

fun facts:
i'm one of the early foreign adopters of the .my domains. before june 13, 2024 you had to be malaysian to register a .my domain. riri my was initially registered on october 18, 2024.
in māori riri (v.) means "annoyed, angry". paired with the meaning of "my" in english.. it sure is interesting... lol
