| Introduction | I'm Henry Yan, and my profile pic isn't really me. I'm a student of Aerospace Engineering at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. I'm a (mostly) quiet and easy-going guy who's interested in just about everything. My biggest interests are applied sciences, anime, photography, and movies; also, if you could describe something as "awesome," add that to the list as well. I listen more than I speak. I like to sleep and I enjoy lying in bed for hours after I wake up. I like beautiful things, whether it is natural, human, or made by human hands. I believe people are inherently good, and I believe the world is a beautiful place. I don't deny the existence of a god, but don't push it further than that. I believe in fate, true love, and free will all at once. I love breakfast and the feeling you get after a good workout. I'm loyal to my closest friends, and believe people should live by their word. I love a good story, no matter the medium. I try my best to live my life without regret. I try not to be a workaholic. If I see I've made a mistake, I'll admit it. I usually take things too literally. There's so much more of myself I'd like to share, but you'll have to read my blog ;) |

You can punch a hole in an apple using a straw. How do you think that makes your milkshake feel?
That it's weak sauce, but I'll tell it that it still tastes delicious. Then I'll gobble it up. Then I'll be sad that the milkshake's gone, then I'll get another one.
