About me
I was born in the Year of the
Transformers in Shanghai. I grew up on a diet of rice and
communist propaganda, some of which, despite my best efforts, I can
still recall.
After arriving in Australia, I attended
Fort Street High
School and the University of
Sydney, where I received a University Medal in 2006 and where I am
now studying law.
My interests include Australian and comparative constitutional law,
architecture, statistics, history, and food. In my spare time (read:
when I should be doing my readings), I like to read, swim, draw, and
mess around with this website. I used to edit
Wikipedia quite a lot, but
recently stopped doing that.
My favourite authors include
Bill Bryson,
Bernard Cornwell,
Terry Pratchett, and
Yu Qiuyu. My favourite movies of all time include
the
Shawshank Redemption,
the Lion King,
Am└lie,
A Beautiful Mind,
and pretty much anything by Stanley Kubrick
or Hayao Miyazaki. My
favourite TV shows include the Transformers,
Iron Chef,
the Simpsons,
Top Gear, and CCTV 10's
Exploration and Discovery.
I used to rant a lot on my website in my more youthful and
foolish days. I don't do much of that anymore — though I still
write from time to time about my pet peeves, such as
CityRail.
