Introduction

#

Hi, whoever is reading this, I’m StellarRounin… and this is my first post. Before explaining the “why” behind this name, I think it’s better to understand a little bit about who I am. I’m just another human with just another blog on the internet… Do I have something special? Maybe, I don’t know—that’s not for me to decide, but for whoever is reading this.

Who am I?

#

I’m someone who has always enjoyed learning new things but has always been afraid of sharing them. I’ve never been afraid to try new things, no matter how strange they were, and that made me drift away from what people consider “normal.” Everything I learn or consume, I do with intensity and purpose… I love being able to be someone different every day.

“Upon those who step into the same rivers, different and ever different waters flow.” — Heraclitus, Fragment B12.

Why the name “Stellar Rounin”?

#

Simple. Stellar Rounin = Star Traveler

Explanation: I love the stars… They were my first friends, and they’ve always been there during the happiest and saddest moments of my life. That’s why I wanted my internet name to include the word “star.”

I also love Japanese culture, so I wanted a word in their language. I settled on “浪人” (Rounin). Put it all together and you get “Star Traveler,” signifying my journey through the stars, who are the onlookers of my life.

Why did I start a blog?

#

Over time, I realized that because of who I am, I struggled to make friends… and even today I still do, because I haven’t found someone who shares that same intensity with which I experience change.

I want to find people who share this, who can find something valuable and meaningful within who I am becoming day by day… and more than anything, to see a person evolve in every aspect.

That’s one reason; the other is that I want to build something, no matter how silly, imperfect, or simple it may be.

What is this blog about?

#

Me. That’s it. Don’t expect a blog focused on a single topic… because I’m not just one thing; I am many.

Expect to see posts about:

• Tutorials and guides related to my work and hobbies.
• Reviews of movies, series, anime, manga, video games, books, etc.
• Meditations.
• Reflections.
• Dev blogs.

And also expect to see:

• Errors.
• Imperfections.
• Changes.
• Opinions. And why? Because before being Stellar Rounin, I am human.
