Past Family House
Took a stroll around the neighborhood where I lived for 4 of my primary school years. Walked around my primary school and the adjacent park. Then I took a seat under a tree shade and sketched my past family house just across the road. There is a funny feeling visiting long forgotten places and seeing […]

Downtown Toronto
Went downtown for the first time in this vacation, it’s so inconvenient to get to the vibrant city center now that I’m staying way up North in the suburbs. Had a veal sandwich for lunch at St. Lawrence Market, briefly visited GBC (where I learned to sketch), then sat in a small park across the […]

Visiting UTSC
Visited my research supervisor at UTSC, he treated me and the entire research group for lunch! Really glad to see everyone again. With the peculiar character of our supervisor, I had many happy and yet productive hours spent in my year of study there. Happy to see the lab prospering, the world can use more […]

A New Venture
Had a sushi dinner with 3 of my UW classmates at a restaurant I haven’t been to for years. Then I met up with 2 other classmates for drinks and to watch Game 5 of NBA Finals (Way to go Dallas!). Too bad all 6 of us couldn’t meet at the same time, but I’m […]

M & J’s Wedding

Will spend more time catching up with friends and maybe […]

Assignment Re-submission
Just when I thought school is finally over for me, I received a phone call on Monday morning saying that I have failed one of my assignments. FAILED?! I’ve received low grades but I can’t remember the last time I failed in any academic course! My ego overwhelmed me and manifested itself into anger, rage, […]

Life after Dissertation
There’s this feeling of emptiness now that the dissertation had been submitted. It feels awkward waking up in the morning and realizing there’s no more school work awaiting me. The dissertation must have dragged on far too long and it just seems surreal that it’s actually completed. Nonetheless, I know there’s the sense of relief […]

A Little Relief
Completed and submitted my Case Study assignment – my last ever academic assignment other than the dissertation. A little relief before the much anticipated grand relief I’ll experience after I finish and submit my dissertation…

Hardworking Day
Not too sure what got into me today, but I managed to pull myself together to complete most of my 10+ page Case Study writeup. Will need to take photos and make illustration(s) to beautify the report tomorrow… I’m thankful for a day of focus and hard work.
