Yuchen "Eric" Wu (born July 19, 1992) is a Chinese Teenager from China who immigrated to Canada in October 26, 1998. Best known by his birthmark and the fact that he can touch his tongue with his hair, Eric is one of twelve hundred students attending Lisgar Collegiate Institute

Personal background
Born in Hangzhou, China, but raised in Ottawa, Canada, Eric's accent exhibits a great deal of influence from his Chinese upbringing and Canadian upbringing. Eric spent the first six years of his life in China. His parents seperated in 1998 and his mother, Yun "Betty" Xu immigrated to Canada. Living in Ottawa, Canada with his aunt, Eric attended General Vanier Public School for two years. After his aunt moved to Raleigh, North Carolina in the United States a year after his arrival, Eric moved to a smaller one-bedroom apartment a block away. In 2000, Betty obtained a job at a security company then called Ademco, which soon was bought out by the multinational company Honeywell. After Betty obtained this job, they moved to a two-bedroom apartment in Bayshore and bought a brand-new Toyota Corolla from Tony Graham's Toyota and Lexus. There, Eric attended Bayshore Public School for another year and a half. In March, 2002 Eric once moved again to an eight year-old townhouse in Centrepointe on a street called Thornbury Cres. There, Eric attended Briargreen Public School for only three months and then left for Hawthorne Public School on St. Laurent. Reasons why he left were unclear but we now know that it had to do with the fact that Briargreen was a wellfare school and that Hawthorne had a congregated gifted program. He originally applied for Broadview Public School but it was full and the next closest congregated gifted program school was Hawthorne. However, in 2003, the very next year, Broadview Public School had open spots immediately transfer there. He attended Broadview for 3 years until he graduated at the end of grade 8 and his mother waited and camped out in Lisgar to apply a transfer form for him to go there. To this day, Yuchen "Eric" Wu still attends Lisgar Collegiate Institute.
