Hi!
I'm a freshman at Stanford University. I graduated from State College Area High School in June 2006.
I work at the Stanford Humanities Center, for which I recently wrote a Wikipedia article. When I'm not working or in class, I enjoy helping out on Wikipedia, listening to all sorts of music, solving crosswords, and chatting with friends on AIM. I'm also a fan of the TV show House, MD, and watch it religiously. In addition, I enjoy playing computer games; lately I've been playing Starcraft and Halo. I also spend time working with my Rubik's cubes (I have a few 3x3x3 cubes and one 5x5x5 cube) and playing Minesweeper.
I've been a user of Wikipedia since fall 2003, when I was doing some research for a project. However, the first time I used it a lot was during May 2004, researching various topics about the Cold War (and getting distracted by the other articles along the way). Most of my edits are just gnoming around, correcting minor spelling and grammar mistakes.
I am an ethnic Chinese -- my parents are from mainland China, but I was born in the United States. Thus, I am a huá yì (华裔 simplified, 華裔 traditional). I reside in State College, Pennsylvania and because of that, I have made several changes to the various articles regarding the locality. To find out more about me, visit my LiveJournal here.
