LFL: Fun, Eccentric Non-conformist
Something About Myself: Extremely lazy but work well under pressure; enjoy baking at own leisure. Bed must be neat and tidy… and surrounded by stuffed animals.
My Language: I am originally from a small village in China, then traveled to a small city in Los Angeles called San Gabriel, which is still filled with my own kind- Asians. I consider myself to be a dorky Asian rebel that still goes to the temple with my mom every year. I tend to talk very fast with my close friends, which are also Asians. Also, I often slur my words simply because I am too lazy to enunciate every word.
Favorite Movies: 1) White Chicks
2) A Walk to Remember
3) Death at a Funeral
Favorite Word: Dumpling. A simple word that sounds cute and delicious. The outside may seem plain and boring, but as you bite into it, you will taste different kinds of yummy-ness.
My Ideal Linguistic Adventure: We would be walking down a crowded street in Paris speaking French and enjoying dessert at a cute coffee shop. Then we would be in an isolated island in Japan enjoying nature and listening to the natives speak Japanese.
How is Linguistics like a Pine Cone? A pine cone is defined as: the conical or rounded woody fruit of a pine tree, with scales that open to release the seeds. Linguistics is similar in the sense that there are many branches and categories. Pine cones contain the reproductive structure of a pine tree, while Linguistic Reproduction plays a major role in the evolution of language groups.
