Exercising
After days of unfamiliar boredom, some drama by the head in chief of Canada’s southern neighbor and by my studio’s neighbors in HK stirred up some ripples in my quiet and unproductive life. The sudden and chaotic trade war that was unjustifiably initiated by Mr. Trump in the south made news more entertaining while hurting […]

(Tri) Weekly Update
Don’t know where I’ve spent all my time in the past few weeks, let me think… My first mini art exhibition started more than a week ago. Using the exhibition as an opening conversation, I managed to contact many friends I haven’t messaged for months, and I got back many congratulations in return. Frankly, it […]

Simplified Week
Life has become routine and simple again this week. Other than my spontaneous and creative Monday, everyday seemed to be about the same – started with a light breakfast at home, then work at the office, followed by dinner at home, a little TV, shower, brush up, devotion, and sleep. Saturday was the highlight of […]

Running
Sometimes I liken running to shooting free-throws – it’s the same repetitive motion and the height and distance from the hoop is pretty much constant, but even though you’ve practiced a million times, the percentage made just can’t seem to improve much. I ran 10k this afternoon, just barely made it through, and the time […]

HK Geopark
My family and I joined a local tour to visit the Geopark yesterday. I totally forgot about it until the night before, had drinks with friends till rather late and ended up sleeping very little before the trip. As a result, the trip seemed rather exhaustive, I spent every minute on the bus and on […]

Week Review
This is one of those weeks where badminton, soccer, and bball coincide on the same week, I think this is probably as much physical activity as my body can handle. A lot of other things also happened this week. I finally launched a website I had been working on and off for a few months, […]

The Power of Introverts
Watched another great TED presentation today – The Power of Introverts. I still remember the time when I was interviewed for my first job after graduation, one of the questions asked was “… Do you consider yourself an extrovert or introvert?” I answered that I was a bit of both, I like to be absorbed […]

Sports and Maps
Soccer on Monday, badminton on Thursday, and basketball on Saturday, it was a week full of sports. Perhaps it’s a bit too much exercise, but I really enjoy catching up with friends, and since the 3 groups of friends don’t overlap, I had to play all 3 sports if I don’t want to miss the […]

New Year’s Resolution 2012
A review of my last year’s resolution revealed that I’ve only completed 4/10 of my resolutions, a failing grade. I wouldn’t consider it a total failure though as many items were still in progress or on the verge of completion. I still insist on making my New Year’s Resolution this year because “…the trouble with […]
