About Me

Here you will find out about who I am, my interests, and my hobbies if you aren't already familiar with me. This will be split into a few sections: Introduction, My Interests, and My Hobbies

If you aren't already aware, allow me to introduce myself—I am Varathria. I reside in the city of London, and I find solace within music creation; music is something I have been enthusiastic about for ages. Not only do I love to perform it on my guitar, piano or maybe even singing, but I love to listen to it. For me, forging melodies and harmonies has become not just a pastime but an expression of my inner self, allowing me to create work that resonates with who I am and my emotions.

As of now, I am not interested in many things. Unfortunately, I have a lack of motivation for most things that used to interest me. Because of that, I will gloss over things that I was formerly interested; nowadays I've grown quite apathetic. The first thing that comes to mind when it comes to my interests is typology.

At first, I wasn't too interested in typology, but after one of my friends brought MBTI to my attention and taught me about the cognitive functions, I found joy in studying it. From there, I learnt systems such as enneagram, socionics, Jung's original theories, temperaments and many more. Ever since then, I've been an avid Personality Database user — despite how bad it has become in recent years — and it's hard to imagine a timeline where I never learnt typology.

As of now, I currently use typology as more of a hobby to anything else, but it didn't quite make it into the hobbies section, and that's because I seldom enjoy trying to figure out the psychology behind certain people and characters. Me and my friend tend to watch clips to try figuring out exactly what we believe fits the people in the respective systems. It can be quite fun at times.

The next thing that comes to mind when I think of my interests is probably neuroscience. I love learning about neuroscience and one of the most fascinating things I heard of is neuroplasticity. I highly suggest that anyone reading does some research on it. Because of my interest in typology, I also developed an interest in psychology. I find it fun to merge neuroscience with psychology theories by using empirical evidence and data to help aid make my theories scientific.

Lately, I have been learning about each region of the brain and how size differences in the cortical and subcortical volumes can impact cognition. For instance, if the cortical and subcortical volumes are smaller in the amygdala, it may affect the ability to feel and identify fear.

Unfortunately, when it comes to my theories, it is uncertain whether any are actually correct or just mere speculation. Perhaps one day if I am interested enough, I can try doing some research into the subject.

When it comes to my hobbies, the first thing that comes to mind is my passion for writing and composing music, primarily on my guitar with a MIDI keyboard. I've been playing the guitar for about four years, and more recently, I've decided to learn to play the piano; as of now, I am not very experienced at playing the piano. In addition to the piano, I've been exploring singing, trying to improve my vocal skills.

That aside, I infrequently play video games. Ever since I was around three years old, I've been surrounded by games and I used to play games daily. Some of the games I loved include: Minecraft, Skyrim, Valorant, Stardew Valley, Roblox, and many more. In recent years, I've found that my desire to play games has been decreasing, which seems to be rather common amongst gamers.

As for the last hobby, it's quite a common one, but it is spending time with people I consider friends. I often combine my interests with my hobbies and share it with my friends. For instance, I may write a song and get my friend to sing it, or perhaps, I'll talk about typology with them.
