The Story So Far
Who I Am, What I Do and How It All Fits Together
Hi Guys
๐ Utibe here โ or Utie (like cutie, without the c ๐)
This site is my little space to figure myself out, document the things I love, and share my creative chaos.
๐ I studied Industrial Physics (BSc + MSc) at Covenant University and now teach there.
๐ But titles aside โ Iโm still learning who I am, beyond the academic structure. This site is me putting the pieces together.
Want the formal deets? Check โem out here.


Creating, Crafting, Escaping
๐จ Iโve always been drawn to making things from scratch โ from journaling to beading and hair braiding..
๐ I made my first bead bag in JSS3 for a Fine Arts project. Dropped it, picked it up, dropped it again โ but I always return.
๐ฅ Anime found me in 2016 during my first year in uni (big ups to Ekene!).
๐ Since then, itโs been manga, manhwa, and the occasional K-drama โ but anime is where I feel most at home.





Random factoids (because why not)
I hoard notebooks but rarely know what to write in them
I get second-hand embarrassment when reading fictional books. I literally have to stop reading to compose myself like itโs happening to me.
My watchlist is longer than my attention span, but somehow I make it work
Iโm a sub girlie, miss with that dub. Thatโs just me
I started learning Japanese (Duolingo โ LingoDeer) and thenโฆ life
Iโve been obsessed with EPIC: The Musical for over a year โ and still get hyped every time a song shows up in my shuffle. No skips. Ever.
I wrote a story based on my crush and his girlfriend โ I thought I was subtle. I wasnโt.
I choreograph fake music videos while cooking.
I randomly remember cringey things I did years ago and flinch like I just got slapped
I rewatch anime so much that I can envision entire scenes in my head when only hearing the audio
I think about conversations that never happened… in great detail.
I often pause anime just to read manga… then jump to a book, then back again
For a long time, I felt like I lost the imaginative spark that made writing so fulfilling.
This entire site is a way of trying to find that spark again. Itโs a space for growth, for play, for collecting pieces of myself. Thanks for stopping by. I hope this site reflects who I am โ and who Iโm becoming.
