There's not too much to say about me I guess... I'm a fifteen-year-old sophomore living in Piedmont (that's near San Francisco), California, and I'm into webdesign and other nerdy stuff. For those of you who’ve known me for a while, you may know that I like to call myself the ‘stereotypical Asian girl set to the slight extreme’. I guess it's bad for me to label myself like that, but it’s really the best way to describe my identity. I'm Chinese (my parents are both of Hakka descent, from Taiwan), I like school and badminton, I lovelovelove Asian street fashion (especially Korean), I'm obsessed with K-drama's, I spend my life on the computer/the intarwebs, I read manga and I cosplay. How Asian is that? xD

Unlike many of my fellow webdesigners, I wasn't really into computers and the such when growing up. I learned what email was around sixth grade, and finally got past the fact that, no, you won't get kidnapped if you give your real first name online, and no, your computer won't crash or explode if you download a file. Anything graphic-related past that epiphany is covered on the 'About/History' page.

Let's see, what else to say about me… making clothes is a significant part of my life; I’ve been a cosplayer for a few years now. My old site (In Finesse) was graphic- and cosplay-based, but I closed that a few months after it opened because the two subjects were so different to put together on one site. I'm a frequent attendee of conventions (I usually hit the majority of the ones in Northern California; I'm thinking about flying down to Anime Expo for summer 2008), and I also work with Team Misaki doing press coverage. I might add more images of me cosplaying to this page in the future, but they're not that great. I don't have the blessing of being photogenic, regardless of how great the camera is. xP

Speaking of cameras, I've been getting increasingly interested in art in the past year; aside from webdesign, I love learning about fashion construction, photography etc. I use a Canon S3 IS (which is technically a dSLR, but it doesn't have a manual lens…).

Oh, my personality! I have to mention something about that. I'm a really mercurial person, especially online; my mood and style is always changing. I cringe when I look at blog posts from a year ago, and I know I'll probably do likewise in a year. It's funny how things can change so quickly.

...I guess that's it! If you'd like to know more about me, feel free to browse my other sites or just ask me a question; I love making new friends, provided that you won't lose interest in me after a day or so.
