About Myself

I like programming. I joined ACM Scholastic programming contest (Hong Kong) twice as contestant (both got third prize) and twice as team trainer. Now my most favourite language is Visual C++. Apart from writing programs for research purpose, I like building screen savers and tools relating to images and animation. I also invented the name "Active Wall Paper" for some of my programs, which show fancy stuffs on the windows wallpaper (Directly on the desktop window, but behind all other icons or applications).

I also like music. I used to play electone but now turned to digital piano. Well, I am not an expertise, but I just like it. Sometimes I code my favourites in midi files, like this one: PNY.MID

I got married on 19 Jan 1997. Now I have 2 kids. See their pictures of 2001 Spring and Summer:
