Yiming Yao's Pretty Cool Home Page
Hello, thank you for visiting my web page. Since I have limited knowledge in creating web pages (or in anything, for that matter), this page probably contains lots of errors or inadequacies in both visual and verbal aspects. Nevertheless, I
have made every endeavor (some aberration from reality there...) to make as memorable a page as possible. I sincerely hope that you will enjoy
exploring it (and hopefully in the process acquire some knowledge that will be useful in real life).
I grew up in China; hence, I have carefully created a page on life in China (primarily of the students). If you'd like to know more about life in China, you are strongly encouraged to visit the page. Just to inform you about the other contents of this site... it contains selected proverbs from a book I have, links to miscellaneous pages, and a page on Sailor Moon songs (it's one of the most prominent Japanese animations of all time). Please feel free now to scroll down and see what I have spent so much time putting up here! Have fun!
For the ease of your exploration, I have incorporated a great deal of text into this page alone. Not too many images are present (one of the reasons is that I couldn't even
get Angelfire to show certain graphics I uploaded... don't know why...), thus it should not take long for the page to load.
Remember...
Work hard, and your dreams will eventually be realized.
This page is dedicated to the entire Internet community. As I am an excruciatingly shy person, and having moved so often, making friends is an ultimately terminally arduous task. I have met many wonderful people over the Internet. In fact, my best friend, John Batchelder (who lives in CO), is someone whom I had the utmost luck of meeting in 9th grade.
Please visit John Batchelder's web page.
