SHE tweets "good morning" when she wakes, "good night" when she goes to bed, and whatever's on her mind once every 10 minutes in between, every day of the year.
The 28-year-old Melbourne woman has beaten celebrities and politicians to top the list of the country's most prolific Twitter users, racking up more than 193,000 tweets since joining the social network in 2007.
That's an average of 106 tweets per day, or a little over six tweets per waking hour. Eleven, if you calculate her statistics from 2009, when Ms Chin says she started using Twitter "properly".
"It either means I'm really clever or I don't have a life," said Ms Chin, who uses the microblogging site to share her thoughts on tennis, her favourite pop star -- Bryan Adams -- and TV show Glee.
It's obvious she does have a life -- the entire thing is played out on Twitter.
She even met her boyfriend of two years, Grant Alexander, 27, on Twitter after he became a fan of her sports tweets.
After a month of tweet-flirting the two went on a date and have been together ever since: "I promised everyone that if I ever get married I'll live-tweet my wedding."
Ms Chin, who runs an Australia's Got Talent fan Twitter account with more than 13,000 followers and organises flashmobs in her spare time, said it was hard to imagine life without Twitter: "The longest I've been without it is two days -- everyone started freaking out."
