Another Tiring Week
Our city is going though another Sunday night of violent protests as I’m writing this post. I’m seriously tired and have been even more quiet than usual this week. Mon – Met up with my calligraphy classmates to visit a newly opened baking studio. It was found and run by one of my classmates goddaughter. […]

A Long Week
The past week was a long tiring one. I didn’t have much planned other than promising to serve at a relatively big fellowship event yesterday. Tue – Found out my 91-yr-old classmate was serious about stopping to join our weekly calligraphy class due to deteriorating health conditions. Met and caught up with an old friend […]

Week of Meetups
In midst of the lingering and worrisome protests that are happening everywhere in our city on a nearly daily basis, I managed to keep my social life intact and engaged in many rare and satisfying meetups this week… It started off with a buffet lunch to celebrate my calligraphy classmate’s 91st bday on Tuesday! I […]

Art Therapy
Went to the funeral of Mr. Kot on Sunday evening with my dad and sister. His daughter gave a speech on Mr. Kot’s life on behalf of the family, I was moved and couldn’t control my tears. My empathy towards others seemed to have grown last year since my uncle passed away, I am now […]

Running Practice
It was a gloomy and cool morning, I slept in and woke up a little late. Didn’t start my much anticipated long running practice until 11:30am. Was targeting to run at least a half marathon (21k), but only managed to complete about 18k, and at a disappointing pace despite the good weather (for running). The […]

CNY Holiday Ends
The CNY holiday ended as though it had never begun. This holiday season was occupied by family and friends gatherings, one following another without much quiet time for myself to do some reflection and planning as I so eagerly hoped. Although tiring, I’m still thankful to be able to meet up with so many friends, […]

JCCAC Handicraft Fair
Partnered with a friend to participate in the quarterly JCCAC craft fair over the weekend, it was truly an exhausting exercise for the introvert! Being an introvert, I’m really not too keen on meeting new people and selling my products. The lack of sleep on the night prior to the fair and the unexpected huge crowd […]

Fuzzy Head
Caught a minor cold/flu with a runny nose, clogged ear, and fuzzy head. Couldn’t quite put myself to work with this state of mind, took it easy today and watched some Olympics badminton and continued my reading of Jimmy SPA’s illustrative books. <<Beautiful Solitude>>, another imaginative book by Jimmy SPA. There were a few occasions in […]

Primary School Friend in Town
A primary school friend was in town, it was a good opportunity for me and two other hk-stationed primary school classmates to catchup with him. Couldn’t remember the last time the 4 of us met up, and we were still missing one who’s in Canada now and to whom we could only greet via WhatsApp. It’s always […]
