About me

“We are what we repeatedly do.”  — Will Durant

Books & Podcasts

Reading is the best way to cheer me up after a tough day. Here are the books I recommend:

• Biography (It's so important to find a role model): Models of My Life (Simon Herbert), Alan Turing: The Enigma

• Self-Help: The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, How to do the work

• Fiction (I read them in Chinese edition): Remote Control (金色梦乡), 余生皆假期, 一首小夜曲 by Kotaro Isaka, Folding Beijing (北京折叠), 星旅人 by Jingfang Hao (郝景芳)

• Podcast: Recently I started to listen to Andrew Huberman, which showed me surprising science about mind and work efficiency!

Calisthenics

I have been doing calithenics for one and a half years (Catch me in Parc Toussaint-Louverture! ). Here are the skills that I have already mastered:

• Push: diamond / archer / typewriter / clap push-ups, one-arm push-ups, wall handstand push-ups

• Pull: L-sit / archer / chest-to-bar pull-ups, muscle-ups, finger-assisted one arm pull-up

• Others: Drangon flag

I am planning to master the free handstand and learn one-arm pull-up in the next few months.

Miscellaneous

I enjoy watching crosstalk (or Xiangsheng), manzai, skit, and drama. When I was at Tsinghua, I have full attendance to the monthly crosstalk shows performed by the student art troupe. :-) My favorite skit artists are Tokyo03. I also have been in the Sci-Fi club, detection club, and vegetarian club.
