About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Trying to harmonize my vigorously linguistic brain with the sloppy literature heart

ABOUT ME

open-minded
love life
love earth

To shorten the story into one sentence:I grew up in China and came to the US to study.

I don't think I am good at express myself but I would love to talk if someone initiate the conversation. That's why some people think I am weird--too quiet sometimes, but getting energetic when knowing them well. I am very considerate to others. But as I get maturer I've learned to say NO when necessary. I see myself still a child inside and I am still learning about everything in this world. Good thing is, I am being curious all the time.

PHILOSOPHY

Fight to live, live to rock

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite band is X Japan. I've been their fan for over 10 years. I love a bunch of different types of music but X Japan is irreplaceable!

Also I like soundtracks. Somehow I prefer music without lyrics

Too many books and movies I love. I choose not to do a list because it is impossible.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In Cambodia we planned to leave Siem Reap for Phnom Penh. We thought we rent a van because we had 5 people. but it ended up with a tiny sedan. None of us were skinny of course.We thought it was a mission impossible. But finally 6 people (including the driver) squeezed in it and we completed that 7 hour's drive. When we arrived everybody in the car was sleeping. Unbelievable!
