I should tell you...
To see a World in a Grain of Sand
And a Heaven in a Wild Flower,
Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand
And Eternity in an hour.
-William Blake
The first thing you need to know about me is that i am quite small and in fairly grave danger of being smushed between two fingers--so please be careful.
As for the usual things people would like to know... I have two parents, one sister (Victoria, age 9), a bunch of grandparents (4, to be exact). My most recent permanent location is Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania; I am originally from Changsha, Hunan Province, P.R. China.
In my off-duty hours, I enjoy eating, running, drawing, playing with robots, and walking to and from my distant dormitory.
Things I like
- Art. Toulouse-Lautrec; Mondrian; Kirchner.
- Books. Nabokov writes the most beautifully of all.
- Food. yogurt; Chinese vegetables; salami; pickles; kim chee; oysters.
- Misc. PrismaColor markers; China; Germans; Anna Quindlen; syntax highlighting; functional programming languages; the Internet.
What I do
Feel free to infer from my schedule. The types are implicit. ;)
