What if you fail?

October 23, 2026

A few months back, I wrote the entrance examination for medical university courses: The “numerus clausus”. Before and even after writing one of the biggest tests of my life, everybody, and I really mean EVERYBODY was saying “you’ll make it!” or “no doubt that someone like you passes that exam”; always reassuring me.
THEN came the email. The one that changed the following year:

Decision regarding your University Admission

We are sorry to inform you that you fucked up:))

Four points. Only four points were missing in order to fulfill my dream. Dr. med. Acharya. I was devastated. Failure wasn’t an option in my head. Adding to my pain, I had never failed before in my life. Somehow things had always been playing out in my favour. For the first time ever, fate must have been thinking “fuck you”. With profound effects. My whole life was pushed back one year. I was forced to take a gap year. In hindsight, that was needed. At the time, I didn’t really believe that.

Ever since I could think, I’ve wanted an email address with my own domain. Okay, maybe not since I could think, but since I knew this is a possibility. So, as you might have concluded by now, this website wasn’t exactly a planned pregnancy thing. But like many unplanned things, it quickly became something I was fully committed to.
