Profile

Although I have already written my basic information on the home page, since this is a "personal statement," I will write it again. It seems that most programmers like writing blogs, but I do not have that habit. Although I do have a Cnblogs blog, it has not seen a new post in a long time.

But I do write notes in Obsidian! I just absolutely never publish them. They are highly private, just like conversations with AI.

So the reason this site is called AurLemon Intro rather than AurLemon Blog is very clear: I do not feel like posting new things every day.

Current Status

👏 My name is Lemon (AurLemon), male, from Fuzhou, Fujian, INF/TJ, born in 2006. I am currently a sophomore (entered in 2024). But after transferring into the undergraduate program in September, I will be a junior, and the major is definitely Software Engineering, although I have not picked my preferences yet.

TypeScript full-stack development. I am a Chinese native speaker, my English is around CET-4 to CET-6 level, and my Japanese is only around JLPT N4 to JLPT N3. Over the past few months I have been preparing my junior-college graduation project and a small project for my own MC server.

I watch a lot of GL. If I had to pick the "best yuri work," I think it would be Adachi and Shimamura. The light novel, manga, and anime are all excellent; the OST is top-tier too, though the anime's animation is a bit on the poor side.

I usually listen to J-POP and Vocaloid. The game I have spent the most time on is Minecraft (Java Edition ID: Aurora_Lemon), and I occasionally play Bed Wars.

My main Agents are Codex and GitHub Copilot (Education Benefits). Anything related to code, such as repositories and things I follow, is basically on my GitHub. See the project page for details.

Education

The questions I get most often from people who know me are, "Why is your junior college only two years?" and "How did you end up in junior college?" I will explain my education history here briefly.

1. Middle school at Fuzhou Pingdong Middle School (2018 - 2021).
2. After the entrance exam, I was admitted to the 3+2 five-year vocational track at Fujian Chuanzheng Communications College. My high-school and junior-college years were spent at Fujian Engineering & Economics School (2021 - 2024) and Fujian Chuanzheng Communications College (2024 - 2026).
3. For the undergraduate stage (2026 - 2028), I am leaving a placeholder here for now. The transfer-to-undergraduate admission result is still pending. I am probably choosing between Fujian University of Technology (Artificial Intelligence) and Xiamen University of Technology (Software Engineering). If the ordinary admission round works out, I would rather get in earlier; my raw score should be enough. The merit-based round only starts in August, which is too late.

When I was in middle school, I was still pretty naive and only cared about playing around. I did not realize until the admissions were over that I was really heading to vocational school. After that, I just stumbled my way to where I am now. Since I was already at the bottom, any direction I take is progress compared with before, haha.

Knowing your own limits is pretty important, no matter whether the result is something you can accept or not. The facts are the facts, and "studying" is genuinely hard. My dream is to get into a non-Double-First-Class graduate program. I do not ask for much, and I hope the me in 2028 can make it happen.

Main Experience

I have almost no real experience or awards worth showing off, so I will force out a few lines here.

1. On the code side, I rarely do old-school manual programming now, aside from the occasional hand-tuned CSS. Almost 98% of my work is done by Agents... I also keep wondering what my way forward is. I know that controlling the whole system matters, but how to get that control is the problem. My grasp of design patterns, algorithms, and data structures is still not enough.
2. I have a small Minecraft server (2018 -). I basically chat in the player group every day, and there is a group of very familiar old players in it!
3. Third prize in the 2025 World Vocational College Skills Competition qualifier. That was a result from my junior-college years, and it mainly came from the school's resources and the instructors' hard work. I really did not expect that I would end up being recognized as a transfer-to-undergraduate award candidate.
