The silent page awaits the waking dawn.
Snow falls with sound, thoughts become words.
雪の中で、静かに言葉を拾っている人。 In the snow, someone quietly picking up words.
Hi, I'm Syskuku_暮雪逢樱.
You can also call me 春雪.
A 2026 Guangdong gaokao liberal arts student, just graduated from high school, standing at the gates of university. I call myself a "soon-to-be freshman" — not because I have any concrete plans for the future, but because I genuinely don't know which way to go. What I do know is that I won't stop moving.
My Bilibili bio quotes a line from Lei Jun:
"I believe that in this world, the strong won't always stay strong — there's always a chance for those who come later!"
This line carried me through the hardest days of senior year. It's not empty motivation; I truly believe it.
The Contradiction of "Liberal Arts Student" and "Tech Geek"
My chosen subjects were Politics, History, and Geography — a textbook liberal arts student. Before the gaokao, I churned out a ton of study notes: key philosophy points to memorize, a collection of geography multiple-choice error corrections, digital economy answer terminology, socialist culture with Chinese characteristics and the Long March spirit... These notes are still on my blog. If you need them, they're still there.
But at the same time, what I do has nothing to do with the label "liberal arts student":
- I built an entire server architecture myself — Alibaba Cloud runs my blog and notes app, Tencent Cloud runs a Misskey social instance, and I maintain the whole Docker + Nginx + PostgreSQL + Redis stack on my own
- I wrote an online notes app called "白纸笔记" (Hakushi Notes) in Python, which currently has 39 users
- I've been tinkering with Linux kernel adaptation on my Surface Pro X (ARM64 Snapdragon 8cx Gen 2). The touchscreen and speakers still don't work, but the keyboard does
- My blog's frontend uses Next.js, the backend is Mix Space, and the theme is called Yohaku (余白). I cloned it from a private repo, compiled it myself, deployed it myself, and tweaked the config myself
Some people say liberal arts students shouldn't touch technology. I think that's wrong. Technology is just a tool, like a pen and paper. The thinking skills of a liberal arts student — analyzing problems, organizing information, expressing viewpoints — are actually the same skills you need for writing code.
Bilibili: Where I'm Most Active
My Bilibili UID is 473348127. As of now:
- 17,000 followers
- 869 posts
- 69 videos
- 144 anime currently watching
VOCALOID Tuning
I'm a devoted Hatsune Miku fan and an active creator in the VOCALOID community. I've made a cover for Luo Tianyi's birthday and tuned various virtual singers. To me, VOCALOID isn't just music — it's a way of expressing yourself, using synthesized voices to sing real emotions.
MAD / AMV
I made an AMV called 《六分镜带你回顾14年来血洗B站的御坂美琴》 (Six Shots: A Look Back at Misaka Mikoto's 14-Year Reign on Bilibili), which got 215,000 views and 1,487 comments. It's a piece I poured a lot of effort into, and it was the first time I truly felt "seen."
Computer / Server Tutorials
I have a 16-video series dedicated to computer and server topics. From deploying your own blog to setting up a Git server, from configuring Nginx to using Docker, I want to explain tech in the simplest terms so even liberal arts students can understand.
Daily Vlogs
I occasionally document life — a day trip to Hong Kong with classmates, how I felt on the day gaokao scores came out, going back to my hometown for Father's Day, visiting the Hong Kong International Gaming and Entertainment Expo (ACGHK), and then boarding a plane to Xinjiang less than 12 hours later.
Blog: Snow Falls with Sound
My blog is at blog.imikufans.com, powered by Mix Space on the backend and the Yohaku (余白) theme on the frontend.
The blog's name is "雪落有声，思绪成文" (Snow Falls with Sound, Thoughts Become Words) — that's how I describe my writing. I don't chase viral hits or traffic. I just write down what I want to say and leave it there. If someone finds it useful or interesting, that's enough.
The blog's content roughly falls into these categories:
- Education: gaokao review notes, Politics/History/Geography knowledge summaries, answering techniques
- Tech: server setup, Linux practice, AI tool usage, indie development experience
- Scripts for new videos: text versions of my Bilibili videos, for people who prefer reading over watching
- Daily notes: life records, random thoughts, travel journals
Hakushi Notes: The First Real App I Wrote
"白纸笔记" (Hakushi Notes) is an online notes app I developed independently and deployed on my own server.
Why "white paper"? Because I think notes should be like a blank sheet of paper — clean, simple, and distraction-free. You open it, you see a blank page, and you start writing.
It currently has 39 registered users, and I'm the only one who uses it heavily (116 notes across 24 sections). Most others tried it once and left. But I don't mind — the reason I wrote this app was never about user numbers. I wrote it because I wanted to.
Tech Tinkering Log
I'm not a computer science major, but technology is like a hobby to me.
Servers
- Alibaba Cloud server: 1.6GB RAM, running the blog, Hakushi Notes, PostgreSQL, and Redis
- Tencent Cloud server: running a Misskey social instance (hub.imikufans.com), accelerated via EdgeOne CDN
- Docker, Nginx, databases, backups, and monitoring on both servers are all managed by me
Surface Pro X Linux Adaptation
I have a Surface Pro X with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8cx Gen 2 processor (ARM64 architecture). I installed Arch Linux ARM on it and solved the kernel driver issues. Right now there's almost no documentation or videos online about installing Linux on a Surface Pro X, and I'm considering making the first one.
AI Tools
I use Hermes Agent (an AI assistant) to manage servers, write code, and handle daily tasks. I think AI isn't meant to replace people — it's meant to enhance what people can do. Liberal arts students should embrace AI, not fear it.
"I think liberal arts students can't afford to ignore Agents. Instead of constantly shouting about preventing AI from replacing you, just use AI — especially Agents — to solve the problems in front of you first, and then rely on developing your professional skills to carve out your own path."

In Closing
I'm not sure what major I'll study, which city I'll end up in, or what job I'll do. But I know a few things:
- I'll keep writing code, whether or not I'm a CS major
- I'll keep making videos, no matter how many people watch
- I'll keep blogging, no matter how many people read
- I'll keep loving Hatsune Miku, no matter what anyone thinks
Snow falls with sound, thoughts become words. This is my story, to be continued.
