    A professional procrastinator and coming-up-with-ideas-but-never-acting-on-them-er. Passionate about conveying the messages I want to share through writing and visuals, I aim to be able to improve my mediocre writing skills through practice (I haven't written anything for over 7 years...)

    I’m a dangerously curious person who’s highly interested in meeting new people and getting to know cultures of other countries, so if you ever want to pour out your life to a stranger, please, feel free to send me a message.
    Enneagram: 5w4 (pretty self-explanatory)

    我可以講廣東話,但是我只能可以讀和寫一點點。。。我需要多練習。。。(⌒_⌒;)

    DM me for manhwa/manga/anime recommendations (self-proclaimed veteran with cultured taste)

The musings of a sheltered "gifted kid" who turned out to be mediocre.

It's my final year in university, and I'm looking for a full-time graduate job. I've so many things yet to achieve, so many unfinished projects, and it seems like "adulthood" is not going to be forgiving. So why not try to improve my writing and vocabulary skills in a blog like this?

However, in a virtual world, anyone can lie. Therefore, you can't even take the events of this journal as the truth.
