Welcome to JLAN's Carrd!
Hi, everyone! I finally made this, as it's better than sending paragraphs over and over and sending individual links.
I will be dumping lotsa info about myself here, as well as adding some of my socials and such.
* Before anything, feel free to message me on Discord! My username is jlan22, I can answer any questions you might have and I don't mind a chat!
My name is Alan. I also go by Jay, from an old nickname I used to go by. I'm a 21 year old trans guy born on the 12th of December 2003, somewhere in North Africa. I'm a demiromantic greyace individual who uses he/they pronouns and much prefers masculine terms. I'm also mildly autistic, and diagnosed with ADHD (as well as a now mild depression, and anxiety), making me neurodivergent.
I'm a college/university student, currently studying Computer Science/Multimedia. Before that, I used to study Ecological Engineering, but the program was too tiring and took a toll on my mental health (+ the fact i had to move out from my hometown to another unfamiliar area). So I moved back home and changed schools.
My mental health's much better now, and I'm enjoying this course I'm taking!
I'm a pretty artsy fellow. A self-taught artist, who enjoys drawing and singing for example. I've been making digital art for a while now, and am planning on taking commissions someday. I voice act as well, but not as often anymore.
I finally got a professional microphone (USB, though), own a piano and a melodica, and am a beginner drummer (i don't own one yet though sadly)!
More hobbies of mine are playing and listening to music, sometimes writing, and I do enjoy exercising.
I also enjoy gaming, both on consoles and PC! Although my first console was a PS2, I'm more of a Nintendo person, my first Nintendo console being a Nintendo DS. I've grown up with the Mario games, and plenty other ones as well. I own a Nintendo 3DS XL, a WiiU and a Nintendo Switch.
(i had a dsi and a wii, but i gave my dsi to my cousin when i got my 3ds, and plan on selling my wii)
fun fact all my consoles are homebrewed :D ha
As previously mentioned, I'm planning on opening commissions! It's going slow, I'm trying to create a commission sheet and I'm having some difficulty with it. But I will be accepting Steam gift cards and Discord Nitro, not actual money. Long story short, my country's customs and currency are an obstacle in so many things I want to do, hence why I do dream of going to another country after college.
* 10/13/2024 : I took an impromptu commission and finished it today, receiving Nitro Basic in return. Commissions were still closed, but I will consider that one a small trial to test the waters. I just need to get a sheet ready and we're good to go!
Will probably be adding more soon...
~ Social Media
One minor detail: I'm not active on all of them. I've been a bit more active on Bluesky lately by microposting! Thinking of becoming active on Tumblr and Instagram again when it comes to art. I've just been procrastinating lately. (will be posting song covers on YouTube soon! i also started posting on TikTok a bit just recently)
However, I'm mostly active on Discord!
To contact me via gmail, my address is: [email protected]!
~ Interests
Here's a LONG list of my interests and hyperfixations, both old and new! Goes from 2016 onwards.
Names in bold are current main hyperfixations on which my focus is on at the moment.
Highlighted ones are minor hyperfixations that are chilling in the back of my head.
(PROTIP: You can use ⌘/CTRL+F to see if we have anything in common!)*
(feel free to ask about any of the below hyperfixations! i might still be interested in it - especially Zelda)
Current Hyperfixation(s):
IchimatsuSuzuka - Popuna - Ace Attorney
(+ Baldi's Basics, Roblox Doors/Grace and Zelda in the background)

MidNocturne (PAPERvsSNAKE) 4. awaken one's dream 5. MONSTER | Current hyperfixation! I first watched GOHOME gameplay back in 2021. I got hooked to it somewhere in 2024, and soon found out about YASO as well. Finding the person behind those games, I decided to check out what she does and listen to her music. And I cannot lie - they're amazing! (first favorite music artist, idk how to explain, feel free to ask!) |

Of course, I got introduced to her via SZK's older videos, as Popuna's her younger sister! Her music is equally as good, and her streams are fun! (plus, she's pretty wholesome herself) (I absolutely love the dynamic between the two, so I get super happy when I see them collabing in some way like music or gaming!) |
