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.

(Added on April 28, 2026) When I have time, I want to make a separate page about how I speak on social media. These little essays on the site feel too serious. Maybe learning about me through fragmented snippets would be more interesting... Anyway, I really do like lurking on other people in a fragmented way.

Current Status

👏 My name is Lemon (AurLemon), male, from Fuzhou, Fujian. I have tested as both INFJ and INTJ, and I was born in May 2006. I am currently a sophomore (entered in 2024). After transferring into the undergraduate program in September 2026, I will be a junior. This avatar has been used for almost ten years; I originally grabbed it from the internet at random, and I no longer know where it came from.

TypeScript full-stack development. I am a Chinese native speaker, my English level sits somewhere between CET-4 and CET-6, and my Japanese level sits somewhere between JLPT N4 and JLPT N3. In fact, I failed CET-6, and because I did well in reading I scored 516 on CET-4. So yes, I am currently retaking CET-6. 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.

Honestly, I have always felt a bit embarrassed that the repository with the most GitHub stars is a CSS repo. It looks kind of low-end. But that is the fact, so I can only accept it, and the other repositories are also written by Agents, so there is not much else worth showing. I guess the only thing I can really do is write small tools...! In any case, I would never buy stars on Taobao. Please believe that my data is real.

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 high school entrance exam, I was admitted to the 3+2 five-year vocational program at Fujian Chuanzheng Communications College, majoring in Computer Application Technology. My high-school and junior-college years were spent at Fujian Engineering & Economics School (2021 - 2024) and Fujian Chuanzheng Communications College (2024 - 2026).
3. Through the transfer-to-undergraduate admission route, I was admitted to Fujian University of Technology for Artificial Intelligence (2026 - 2028). Since my score was high enough, I was admitted together with the ordinary applicants ahead of time, so I did not use the August merit-based round. If I can leave earlier, I would rather leave earlier.

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.

Still, transferring into Fujian University of Technology was not my original goal. My dream school at first was actually Xiamen University of Technology... who would have thought they would expand enrollment in computer-related majors this year? So I had no choice but to apply, reluctantly. I was anxious for three days and still got admitted in the end, because I kept worrying my ranking would not be high enough. Studying in Xiamen would also mean living in a dorm, and I have always felt that dorm life is very draining.

That said, Artificial Intelligence is definitely a debuff for someone from a non-Double-First-Class school plus a transfer-to-undergraduate path. But in my eyes it is still part of the broader computer science category...! The probability of me going into an algorithm role in the future is basically zero; I will most likely still do development work. If I had to give one reason, it might just be that it is a little more fun than Software Engineering...? The courses are probably a bit more varied too...?

(If you look carefully at the image at the very top of this page title, it actually contains the school emblem of Xiamen University of Technology - even though I ended up going to Fujian University of Technology. I was too lazy to change that image, so I just left it there. I visited Xiamen University of Technology with seniors in October 2025, and we went to the Jimei campus. It was still pretty large.)

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.
