This seems more like a perspectivism, egoism, or absurdism than nihilism. Ultimately, nihilism is the position that even any meaning you create is likewise inherently meaningless. To create your own meaning, and maintain that it is meaningful, is a refutation of nihilism, not its embrace.

In the strictest sense, yes you're right. But there are so many "flavors" in popular culture.

For me, Nihilism is the input. i.e. everything is meaningless. But the output, i.e. what do you do, is separate.
