Back To Normal
After an unusual week filled with meetups with family and friends and a daily schedule that was skewed by the World Cup, this past week was back to normal. No social meetups occurred this past week other than my regular Chinese calligraphy class on Thursday. The only gathering that was scheduled for Sat. afternoon with […]
World Cup
The past week’s schedule was skewed slightly by World Cup. A few games that were broadcasted freely kicked off at midnight, I stayed up to catch the games and went to bed immediately at around 2am. Bedtime reading was no longer needed to put myself to sleep. Had quite a few social meetups again this […]
Slacking
Had been slacking from work this past week. The most meaningful work I had done in the studio was reviving my ancient CNC machine that had been sitting collecting dust for I don’t know how many years. A friend visited the studio on Mon. afternoon, so I spent most of the day with him. Took […]
A Good Week
The past week was probably the best week I had since returning to this city in mid-Sept. Took a day off on Wed. to visit the M+ Museum for the first time with a friend. Felt like a tourist in this city that seems to be getting more and more unfamiliar to me. Met and […]
Getting Better
Seems like I’m slowly getting out of the rut and finding interests in my work once again. Spent a lot of time in the past week trying to 3D print with filaments that was upcycled from bottle caps (HDPE). Had tens of failed prints and a few late nights of troubleshooting in the studio before […]
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 […]
Week 6
Continue to rest, social, and indulge in the Canadian goodness… Making good progress on my mini art project to paint caricatures of animals found in the nearby park…
Week 5
Met up with a few groups of friends this past week, still very much thankful seeing every single one of my friends healthy and well. Glad that I extended my flight, would not have the opportunity to catch up with these friends otherwise. Started a mini art project to paint caricatures of the animals I […]
Fourth Week
It has been nearly a month since I started this Canadian trip. I have been resting a lot, seeing and catching up with many friends, and soaking up as much Canadian goodness as I possibly could. My trip originally ends today, but I managed to extend my return flight to Aug. 1. There was nothing […]
Third Week
Third week into my month-long vacation. Still meeting up friends almost daily. Beginning to see repeating friends in the meetups, still grateful seeing every single friend healthy and happy! I think I’m now more attuned to the slower pace here in Canada. I usually get more than 8 hours of restful sleep every day now. […]
