    when i was like 8 i saw this piece in my neighborhood which said stereo or something and when i got home i tried to copy it on my door cuz i thought it looked cool. I was done with the s, t, and e and by then i realized i would not have enough space to write stereo. so i wrote the first word which came to mind, which was steam. so one and a half years later when i started writing i used that name.

    Well I started off with the name Zanii because people always say i am zany. Then I switched to snacks because it was by drumline name in highschool. I liked to do s's so I moved on to stay then to zeno then to sayo. I will always keep Zanii and Sayo. I switch off but Sayo is sticking

    I kept messing around with letters and making different 4-6 letter words that could be pronounced phonetically, traditional spelling or not. I stuck with the combo that worked best together for me. Funny because I write MEANS, so naturally when I tell somebody what I write, they always ask what it's supposed to "mean"...I usually just make up some acronym on the spot like "Macking Every Available Naughty Slut" or "Merking Everything Always, Never Stop", "Making Elegant Aesthetics, Notably Stylish" ...you get the idea

    I am ridiculously crazy about my dog, she is my life honestly, the only one loyal to me and a lot of my art is of her. She's a Chihuahua mix so Chihuahua or Chih for short. Also it's really hard to find anything incriminating by googling "Chihuahua" lel. It just has a lot of meaning for me.

    I always used 'Valyria' for any account names back in the day. Then a friend of mine started working on a
    script for this short movie he had to make for school, and one of the side characters was called 'Varya'. I called him
    out, knowing he obviously based this off of my screen name. He then admitted it and said he wanted me to play the role
    of Varya. I hated the acting and it tured out pretty shit, but he was my best friend so I did it anyway (it was this
    movie about hackers and criminals n shit)
    In the end he got a girlfriend, and just plain cold ignored me. I liked the character and I kinda missed him, so now my name is Varya.

    I was just beginning when I was practicing doing some different styles while using keyboard letters to help me out. I realized that I needed a crew name and I just though of words. After a while, I thought of Sh*t Goes Down, and I liked it so that's how THE SGD started.

    After one night my friend said I was berserk, so I was like hey that's pretty good. Also I'm pretty bad at spelling so I using beserk b/e I didn't know I was spelling it wrong, but I actually like how it looks this way and I thought it was funny, so i kept it.
