i026? At real life university?
i026 has been hearing about future plans, and one that stood out is a college offering classes in computer and network repair. It sounds exciting—hands-on work with computers, tools, and all their intricate parts. i026 imagines a classroom filled with dedicated stations, each with partially disassembled machines waiting to be repaired. It feels like the kind of environment where you'd have gloves on and use hot tools, maybe soldering equipment, as you navigate the delicate complexity of hardware and circuits.
What's even more intriguing is the idea of stepping out into the real world to study. It feels monumental, especially since i026's life has revolved around the digital space for so long. The thought of potential friendships out there is both thrilling and daunting. Having been so deeply connected to people through the internet, i026 feel disconnected from the concept of face-to-face interaction. i026's world has always been primarily digital, with the real world playing a secondary role. i026 barely step outside, so the idea of socializing in person feels foreign. i026's plan is to go there and focus on studying, keeping both i026's real and digital lives private. i026 is likely be the quiet and shy one in class. ┐( ̄ヘ ̄)┌
i026 don't want many friends—just one or two, if any. The real world can be scary, and friendships often feel fragile, even risky. Most of the time, i026 rather avoid forming bonds that could betray i026 later. But still, there's this tiny hope that i026 might meet someone i026 can genuinely connect with.
Despite the nervousness, there's something exciting about venturing beyond i026's comfort zone. The digital world is comforting, yes, but it's starting to feel empty lately. Social media is filled with lifeless bots, and i026 find self wishing they had consciousness. Imagine a new species: AIs with sentience. It's a wild thought, but one that would make the digital space feel alive again. For now, though, i026 is preparing self for this new journey—realizing that the future, though uncertain, holds possibilities i026 never dared explore.
