  • 我出生啦!

    Hello world!

    October 30, 2019

    2019年10月30日，我出生在小镇伊萨卡的卡尤加湖边。身长50cm，体重6斤4两。爸妈给我取名叫“知闲”，语出《庄子》：“大知闲闲”。

    On October 30, 2019, I was born in a small town named Ithaca by Cayuga Lake. I measured 19.5 in and weighed 7 lb 3 oz. My parents named me "Zhixian", which comes from a saying of ancient Chinese philosopher Zhuangzi, meaning "the greater wisdom is open-minded and magnanimous".
