INTRODUCTION

Hi,

This is my About Me page or section or whateverr...........

My name is Rowan I'm a 21 year old girl from the Netherlands.

I live all the way up north in a place called Friesland. It's kind of a shithole... Would not recommend living here but unfortunetely I don't have the money or resources to move any place else right now so I'll be stuck here for a little while longer.

I love Industrial Rock or any form of Industrial music so if you know any cool obscure Industrial bands feel free to shoot me a suggestion in the comment box. I'm also a sucker for 2000's Emo/Scene music I guess I just love edgy music from that time period in general, you can check out my favourite artists/bands in the general info tab!

I'm not in any form of education currently, I've been a dropout since I was 16 due to my mental health declining at that point... not much better now but at least I'm still working on things. Some of my hobbies include:

• Drawing:

I've been drawing for most of my life, trying to make comics and stuff like that haven't gotten very far with any of them but I'd still like to finish one, one day. You can check out some of my drawings under the 'Art' tab.

• Music:

I love listening to music some might not consider that a hobby but I've spent a lot of my time constantly searching for new music. I'll link my last.fm page here somewhere so feel free to follow me there lol<3

• Graphic Design:

Something I'm still learning but I think I've come a long way, though you can judge that for youself just by looking at this website hahah. I've also made some single/album covers for friends might put a few of those under the 'projects' tab.

When I started working on this website, around december of last year I think, I had been suffering from panic attacks basically everyday for while. Every time I got one it felt like I was going to die which in turn made me very afraid of dying. At this point in my life I was pretty hesitant about making/starting new projects because I didn't want to dissapoint myself. But the constant fear of dying and having panic attacks everday kind of pushed me start making things again. which is why I started working on this website, it's one of the few things that could distract me from my constant fears. I've never worked so much in such a short period of time as I did then. In recent times my mental state has improved a bit though with that my motivation has faded a little. I still want to make things and continue working on this website though! So I'll try and update it as much as I can.

• Love, Rowan


I am going to die at 84.  When are you? Click here to find out!

Title: Wintergirls
Author: Laurie Halse Anderson
Release Date: March 19, 2009
Status: Completed
Personal Rating:
This is the book that got me back into reading. I love how introspective and real it feels. Nothing is toned down here. A very realistic look into mental illness, eating disorders and how they affect you and the people around you, pared with a murder(ish) mystery makes for one of the most interesting and well written books I've ever read!
Title: Walking Disaster
Author: Deryck Whibley
Release Date: October 8, 2024
Status: Completed
Personal Rating:
"There's nothing left to say, 'cause you don't want to try, and I don't want the pain. There's nothing left to do. I don't want the lies, and you don't feel the same."

A pretty beautiful memoir from Deryck Whibley, frontman of the band Sum 41, covering everything from his early teenage years to the band's formation, being caught in a war zone, his struggles with alcoholism, the breakup and reform of Sum 41, and ultimately the band's final breakup in 2025.

I've been a fan of Sum 41 since I was about 13. Their music helped me through some rough years, so this was definitely an interesting read—or rather, listen—since I bought the audiobook. I’d actually recommend the audiobook over the print version, cuz Deryck does an amazing job conveying emotion in his narration.
