CURRENT MISSION

The Importance of Being Idle

ABOUT ME

Oh...Ok. I was born in a metropolis and I am now leading a "miserable" life in a rural midwestern town in US--of course for education. |That shouldn't be enough...| I am curious about everything, well, not "every"thing but almost everything, esp. about the part of the world that I have never seen. I study communication so I am good at communicating.........(sounds awkward!) | Still not enough? ...Yes! People say that I am CHILL.

PHILOSOPHY

There is an ancient Chinese philosophic saying: to govern by non-interference. Well, I apply that to my life. To make it simple: I choose not to choose.

音乐、电影和书籍

I devote my heart to British sitcoms.......from Black Adder, Jeevers & Wooster, Fawlty Towers, to Black Books, Coupling and IT Crowd (basically everything...except Little Britain, that's out of my boundary).

Also watch a lot movies. If you want me to give some big names, then probably...Fellini, Almodóvar, etc. Basically I'm open to everything.

When it comes to books...I am more into...I don't know! such a hard question. I pick books randomly. To be honest I read more Chinese books, but when I was back from Florence, I went directly to the library for "Brunelleschi's Dome: The Story of the Great Cathedral in Florence", so it depends.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

The Mezquita in Córdoba, Spain. There is no adjective deserving it. Just go there...

More things occurred to me...RUINS!!! I love ruins. I went to Italica(Spain), Medina Azahara(Spain) and Ostia(Italy) during my stay in southern Europe. Love all of them. Wish I had enough time for Tivoli...

I have to add this!!! Wandering in alleys full of Chinese parasol trees -- typical pleasure for autumn in Shanghai.
