It was another week of prototyping on weekdays and gatherings on weekend. Joined my friend’s fellowship Christmas party on Friday evening, around 100 b&s attended, felt a bit overwhelmed. Had a gathering with uni friends on Sat. afternoon. I started giving out some of the geometric STEAM kit prototypes to friends’ kids to test them out. iPad and phone games seemed to be the more attractive choice of entertainment for them. But when they got home and assembled the kits, they seemed to enjoy the brief moment of discovery outside of the screens, at least that’s what it seemed from the photos and video my friends shared.
I left the gathering early because I bought ticket to a private dinner and show at a nearby restaurant. I had been to the cozy venue numerous times during this trip and had gotten to know the owner and his wife. Felt a bit awkward during the dinner and show without any friends around me, but at the same time, it felt good to be surrounded by Cantonese speaking Hongkongers in Canada.
Another accomplishment this past week was sorting out my finances at the bank. Had been procrastinating over this throughout the trip, glad to finally had that task checked off the list!
