introduction
you have just entered into my attempt of a webpage. my name is wenyu.  my home is where i sleep.

objective
to find a job utilizing my communication skills and....okay, no no, my purpose for this website is really simple.   it's like this...i was, like, awake one night and was, like, bored, so, like, i just started wandering, and, like, that wasn't working, so, like, i just turned on my computer, and, like, just made this page.

world hello day
when i was born, ford was in the white house.  that year, mr. ford had dreams of being officially elected, but in the words of anne robinson "it's the vote that counts....good-bye!"  i was also born on world hello day.  which is so so kewl.  it's when, like, you have to say "hello" to ten people for world peace.  so now, youse know why i so clay-zee happy all da time.

roots
taipei, taiwan, home of uh-ah-jien (oyster pancake, for all ya missing out)

explorers
when i was five, i noticed that the world had changed.  all the kids started to grow white hair and none of them spoke chinese.  i also noticed that i could play on grass aaaaall the time and not on some roof top, kewl.  even my bestest buddy lucky changed, from a strawberry blonde collie to a mean ole black lab that liked to attack innocent young children.  grrrrr.  this was also when we became explorers.  we first settled in this place called new york, during an aweful aweful snowstorm.  kinda like those folks with black skirts and funny hats down in jamestown.  well, anyways, the snow was so high that when i fell in it, my mommy couldn't find me.  well, tat was way too cold for us taiwanese folks, so we moved to lish ola place in new yok.  well, after a cooking experiment by a young member of the family *ahem* we had to move again.  so we moved to another place in new york.  there, i learned a lot of spanish...like callade y sientate.  that's also when i started hating frogs that jumped on you and made you cry and...and...then we drove very, very far away to this place where people called themselves hoosiers...people there were nice.  then, we set course back east to this place called pennsylvania, where, uh...there were good people in indiana.  so we went back to indiana.  then in fifth grade we went back to new york, where we lived happily by the beach. but then we went to this place with lots and lots of oil refineries where people asked you what exit you lived at.   then, i grew up and went off to college.  but, our captain liked it there on exit 9, so i started my own expedition and sailed south.  but i ran out of gas in this place where people liked to talk about their belts and and something about beltway.  well, das also when i started to think about my doggie, lucky,  so back to taiwan i went.  but now i'm here. well, kinda, cuz san diego still hasn't been checked off my itinenary.
