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。 Someone quietly picking up words in the snow.
Hi, I'm Syskuku_暮雪逢樱.
You can also call me 春雪.
A 2026 Guangdong gaokao liberal arts student, just out of high school, standing at the gates of university. I call myself a "soon-to-be freshman" — not because I have a clear plan 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 stay strong forever — there's always a chance for those who come later!"
That line carried me through the hardest days of my senior year. It's not empty inspiration; 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 review notes: key philosophy points to memorize, a compilation of geography multiple-choice error patterns, terminology for digital economy essay questions, socialist culture with Chinese characteristics and the Long March spirit... Those 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 note 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 note-taking app called "白纸笔记" (Hakushi Notes) in Python, and 39 users are using it right now
- I've been tinkering with Linux kernel adaptation on a 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 on my watchlist
VOCALOID Tuning
I'm a die-hard 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. For me, VOCALOID isn't just music — it's a way of expressing myself, using synthetic 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 Minutes to 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 my heart into, and it was the first time I felt truly "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 & 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 as the backend and Yohaku (余白) as the frontend theme.
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'm not chasing viral hits or traffic. I just write down what I want to say and leave it there. If someone stumbles upon it and 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, answer 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 diaries
Hakushi Notes: The First Real App I Wrote
"白纸笔记" (Hakushi Notes) is an online note-taking app I developed independently, deployed on my own server.
Why "blank paper"? Because I think notes should be like a blank sheet of paper — clean, simple, no distractions. You open it, you see a blank page, and you start writing.
It currently has 39 registered users, and I'm the only heavy user (116 notes across 24 categories). Most people tried it and left. But I don't mind — the original purpose of this app wasn't to attract users. It was because I wanted to write one.
Tech Tinkering Log
I'm not a computer science major, but technology is a hobby for 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 amplify human abilities. Liberal arts students should embrace AI, not fear it.
"I think liberal arts students can't afford to ignore agents. Instead of shouting about preventing AI from replacing you, start using AI — especially agents — to solve immediate problems first, then rely on developing 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 for certain:
- 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.
