Hi! This is hayillem

Hiraeth, a beautiful word meaning "a homesickness for a home to which you cannot return", was my last big project in mind. As I wrote on the main page of this blog, I often dream about running away in really fast vehicles, usually cars or helicopters; I later realized that what I truly want is to feel adrenaline taking over my thoughts and body. Even without that unfulfilled wish (yet!), I can still feel hiraeth, longing for nostalgia and yearning over what I already lost and what it's yet to lose.

I think the main creative source for this is my constant daydreaming about music: either me writing songs for artists, being part of a girlgroup, dancing for performers, etc. In all of those fantasies there's always one thing in common: I document all the achievements (or failures, vulnerabilities) while explaining the muses behind my visions.

I consider this blog as a space in which I experiment with the html elements, since it's my first time learning how to write/program in this language; however, it's true to say that, as a data science major, I'm quite familiar with other programming languages such as python or java. Data science is not the career I want to pursue, even though I'm studying this degree, I know I want to dedicate my life to literature, performing arts or pure sciences (even if it's quite ironic).
