Birth
August 9 2003, somewhere in Macao, a tiny boy that was born.

Some where around 2009, my parent decided to move to America for me. They wanted to give me more opportunities in life. ( God, I love my parents )
Skipping forward a few years, I'm in Ms. 88 - a horrible school in my honest opinion. I met My long lasting friend: Billy Yang, Jia Bin Li ( or Jeremy ), Yangfa Wu.
I was excited for my High school: Brooklyn Technical High School. It was a 'specialized' high school so I had high expectation for it. My best friends also passed into this school with flying color.
Like every good software engineer, I had my humble beginning in programming with a little known language: Javascript. It was unique; it stood out from all the classes I've taken. This is when I fell for programming.
I went in into All-star code expecting nothing, but was pleasantly surprised. I learn to work with other people through Visual studio code and was introduce to Github for the first time in my life.
Whilst I was dejected from getting declined to Google Code Next; I was delighted to have the opportunities to join Google CSSI. In this program, I was introduce to google Firebases and more github, specifically multi-user work flow using merges.
While being vastly under qualified, I was accepted and enroll into Boston University Computer Science Bachelor of Arts program.
To be honest, I don't even know how I got in. Looking through the requirements, I have met only one of them and that was "having taken one computer science course." Anyhow, I'm extremely grateful for this opportunity.
It started as a joke during the last week of All-Star code. Me and my friends ( Jeremy and Yangfa ) recreate my poorly made website and called it Precaution this time. The aim was to raise awareness and educate people regarding of current scams.
Peer-fit was a social media app we create for fitness during the last week of google CSSI. It wasn't anything impress or big, but we did implement, or at least attempt to, Firebase.
While the simulation last time worked, it was way to slow for my liking. This time I hope to implement multi-threading and more natural looking pixels.
I wanted to not only use Object Orientated programming in this project. I want to use declarative or rather a combination of OOP and FP, with Java streams, to achieve my Minesweeper.
Cellular automata is a wonderful concept. The most famous perhaps is Conway's game of life. Following a set instruction would yield fascinating combination of patterns that resembles life.
What can I say? It's the old and class, I never made it past 512, so I'm making it in spite of it.
I've always admire game developers, so this time, I plan to create a game, as small or as bad as it may be.
Using information that was parsed into CSV, I create a website for school. It's crude, but it was my first attempt with jquery instead of Villain Javascript. I also tried Python graphing with Matplotlib.
Using react, I hope to create a Information, or rather more concisely, MLA or Formatter.
I want to make this website more unique. Not just in term of animation. I want parallax scrolling effect even if it will take eons. Or create a website that is like a video game using Three.js
