One Month
Was about to leave home to meet friends for dinner when I spotted the bright full moon rising from Kowloon Peak. It reminded me that I had returned to this deteriorating city for one full month. Life seems to be returning to what it used to be before the 3-month long summer vacation in Canada. […]
Friends
Started meeting and catching up with friends after returning to HK and completing the useless 10 days of COVID testing required by the government. I thought most of the people who planned to leave this deteriorating city already left by the time the summer was over, but I was wrong. A friend already left for […]
Back To Reality
As much as I wished to further extend my 3-month long summer vacation in Canada, I inevitably needed to face reality and returned to my deteriorating birth city on Sept. 7th. It took about 3 hours from the time my plane landed to get through the airport’s pandemic measures and customs and finally arrive at […]
2 Months
It has been more than 2 months since I left HK to visit Canada, where I last set foot 4 years ago. Time really flies! Have been sleeping a lot, met and caught up with many friends, and completed a spontaneous mini art project. I’ve rest enough and have seen most of my friends by […]
Second Week
Second week into my month-long vacation. Still continuing my near daily meetups with friends, and still enjoying the catch-ups and all the happy memories that arose. I’m grateful for the many good friends that God allowed me to cross paths with. Despite the many social gatherings, life is still a little boring around here, especially […]
Social Deficit
Being slightly introverted on the social scale, I’m usually not too active in asking friends out. But in the past couple of weeks, I managed to organize, meet, and catch up with many friends. Many friends were just as eager to meet up and only required a little nudge from me to organize the gatherings. […]
A New Chapter?
The city had appointed its new CE on Mother’s Day, a foreseeable authoritarian chapter will officially begin on July 1st. It’s sad to witness the once free and creative city deteriorate and people emigrating and separated from their families. Life goes on… My weekly calligraphy class had finally resumed since the 5th pandemic wave began […]
1 Month of WFH
Have been working from home since early Feb. In one month’s time, I managed to get back into doing some web programming work and was able to complete 4 website update projects. After launching the final website late last night, I felt extra relaxed. With a lightened mood, I took my time to slowly stroll […]
Helping Others While WFH
Some of my CNY postcard fai-chuns started arriving their North American destinations this past week. My friends started messaging me one by one the photos of the Blessed Sleeping Tigers, I was happy receiving their messages as much as they receiving my little pieces of art. The past week had been rather gloomy. Local pandemic […]
Work From Home
Started working from home last week as the 5th pandemic wave was rather severe with daily COVID cases in the low 4 digits. Got back into doing some website work. Finished backing up and updating the design of this personal website and was more than halfway done for one of my studio websites. Working in […]
