Hello, I'm Rin! I maintain this website as a creative expression for myself and don't really have an audience in mind, but I'm thankful for anyone that enjoys what they see here. Besides coding, some of my hobbies include drawing and crafting, writing reviews and fanfics, playing video games, watching anime, and reading manga. Sometimes I indulge in these things, and sometimes I don't, so I try to be more involved and consistent with my hobbies and interests by sharing them here. Though I first started learning how to code in the beginning of 2022, it wasn't until March of 2024 when I got more into coding and less into most social media platforms. I thought that working on my own projects would be a nice change of pace— and it definitely has been. This site gets updated quite often, so feel free to visit every now and then!

For anyone who has any questions, concerns, or just wants to reach out about something, you can email me or message me elsewhere. I'm also open to chatting with people that might have similar interests to me and think we'd get along, but please be at least 18! If you want to leave behind an anonymous or public message for my site, you can use my guestbook.

You're most definitely wondering how I came up with a username as interesting as Sunfish Dreamworld. This is something I've been wanting to write about for a while now, and this site gives me a good excuse to do so! I came up with my username near the end of summer in 2022, so it's strange to think about how “new” it still is, at least, compared to the other username that I had for nearly 7 years...

I've always been a fan of horror, but in 2022, I was really interested in liminal spaces, especially locations that had water where water shouldn't be. I know that's weirdly specific, but there was something about this subgenre of horror that I found really intriguing. I've also been a fan of weird usernames I would see online from time to time, or those music playlists on YouTube with cryptic titles.

In 2020, I watched a video that featured this girl. You've probably seen her before, especially since she was really popular a few months ago (for some reason). I was immediately captivated by her off-putting face, and the website that she's from is even more bizarre. The name of it stuck with me too. イルカの夢でさようなら, or “Goodbye in the Dream of a Dolphin”. You can probably already see the parallels between that and Sunfish Dreamworld. It wasn't until not that long ago when I found out that Iruka is a musical artist who isn't so mysterious, and I was kind of sad that this wasn't some sort of weird unfiction where no one knew where this girl came from or what the point of her was. It felt like knowing where she came from kind of made her less unsettling and interesting, but now I'm just complaining!

I didn't go with the sea creature motif just because of Iruka— I've loved a lot of things related to the ocean ever since I was little. There were a lot of sea creatures that I really liked, and I learned more and more about them through Animal Crossing: City Folk. I never knew that sunfish existed until I caught one for the first time, and I've been obsessed with them since then! I love how they look in the game, and it wasn't until later when I found out just how huge they actually are.

I actually thought that Sunfish Dreamworld was too good of a name, and I even considered using it for my own horror/unfiction story (that I haven't made any progress with (yet)) instead of my online identity. It's kind of weird to think how it was just going to be a temporary username, but that's just who I am now.
