It\u2019s been a long time since I last wrote a blog; a lot has happened. As you can see, I\u2019ve decided to write new posts in English to practice my writing in the language. Over the past few years, I tried to avoid using English\u2014or any language other than Chinese\u2014to write. That\u2019s because my writing skills aren\u2019t great, even in my native language, let alone in English.<\/p>\n
But recently I realized it\u2019s necessary for me to practice writing, not only for exams but also for the future. Anyway, this is an explanation for the language change on the blog. I\u2019ll consider writing some technical posts in both languages, maybe xd.<\/p>\n
Honestly, I haven\u2019t really participated in open-source projects; I\u2019ve mostly just used them. But even for my resume, it\u2019s better to do something that makes my GitHub account look more polished. So I started to build some small tools not long ago; I\u2019m going to release them in a few days. During this process, I rediscovered my enthusiasm for coding. After getting tired of doing \u201cdirty work\u201d in the lab and writing code I don\u2019t actually care about, I started to wonder whether I was really interested in coding or computer science. But a little toy project helped me find the answer: yes. The feeling of creating something and getting a machine to do what you want is great.<\/p>\n
BTW, choose your mentor carefully when you become a graduate student, or you could end up in a **miserable** situation. That\u2019s advice from my own experience. Anyway, take care of yourself and be well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
