Bio
I am quite an introvert and shy person with few friends. Even so, I keep an optimistic outlook on life, believing that troubles will also bring fortune. My motto is "Today's nobody, tomorrow's somebody." - Never give up on your passion, even though today you are a no-name, tomorrow you can be world's most important figure. I really love watching superheroes, which people find childish but I can learn many lessons from them. I am aspiring to become a graphic designer, which will allow me to express ideas with arts. Not really fond of domestic animals. Possess a great command in English with numerous high-profile awards. Favor TED due to the sheer vast number of lectures and excellent lecturers, as well as the opportunity to learn English even further!
I'm passionate about
I'm passionate about learning new things to enrich my knowledge. At a young age I was quite interested in cooking. I was utterly impressed by the meticulously-crafted food with elegant arrangement. I still learn how to cook new things, because it will build a useful database for me in times of trouble and loneliness. I am also a staunch follower of developments of computers and technology, reading tech news day by day. I have taken up HTML/CSS as my first programming language to lead me on the path of contributing to the Internet world. But my greatest love should be allocated to superheroes. Despite my initial fears, I quickly become a loyal fan, having watched both American and Japanese heroes in action to save the world from the clutches of darkness. Superheroes have taught me many things about this world and I am really grateful with them. My decision to follow graphic design is partly due to the fact that there are so many creature designs that I can conceive of and I can express them all through computer arts. Recently, I have assumed the role of translator for a movie-subtitling community and I am quite proud of it! The work may be a bit daunting but the rewards are extremely wonderful.
