Hi, I’m Evander O’Keefe

A tenacious, loving and energetic kid who enjoys projecting into the future. in 2115 I’ll be 100, and I have every intention of reaching 105.

In the beginning

I was born on September 19 2015 at the Royal Women’s Hospital in Melbourne, Australia. My mum laboured with me for 21.5 hours and towards the middle, she screamed so loud that she punctured her lung. Subsequently, both my mum and I nearly died and I spent the first 3 days of my life in NICU. I struggled to breathe at first, but after a little while on oxygen, I was perfectly fine. Mum on the other hand, will always remind me about how her chest literally burst with love for me.

Currently

It’s 2021 and we’re in the midst of a virus based pandemic. I’ve attended half of my first year of school sporadically and July 30 marks my 100th day of school so far, (online and in person). My passions include: activity sports, l’arte, le scienze, la scrittura, la matematica, and video games.

Into la futura

I have some predictions for 2121.

I imagine humans will have hover-based vehicles and foods will return to the healthy foods that were lost in the early 2000’s.

School will happen via holograms and humans will need to go outside more to stay healthy too.

I will be a famous artist in textiles and fashion, and I’ll be happy in my family.
