Website Redesign (maybe)
Thinking about giving my website a complete makeover, so I spent some time today surfing the web looking for inspirations. Over the years I’ve bookmarked tens of artists’ portfolio websites, but I didn’t quite have the chance to see them in details until today.

Chinese New Year 2011
It’s the Year of the Rabbit, my second Chinese New Year since returning to HK. The atmosphere is joyous and vibrant, but I didn’t feel as dramatic of a change as last year, another indicator that I’m well adapted to the lifestyle here. Spent the day with my family of ten – dim sum in […]
