7.1 Rally
Went with my sister and brother-in-law to join the annual 7.1 Rally. I joined the rally for my first time 2 years ago, didn’t go last year, and this year it felt like I couldn’t afford to miss it. The rally this year is definitely more crowded and tiring. Wouldn’t it be nice to chill […]
KWCACers Reunion
A friend decided to move back to Toronto with his wife and son, it hastened our old Waterloo fellowship b/s to finally meet up. The last time we met was more than a year ago. It was good catching up with everyone and knowing that everyone is doing ok. One of the most asked question […]
World Cup
Woke up to watch the 4am Brazil vs Cameroon game. I suddenly recall the time when I watched the World Cup with 3 good friends in the summer of 98′ before we went our separate ways to start university. The 4 of us lived in the same apartment building and went to the same nearby […]
Running
It was already close to sunset when I started my run. Started late because I decided at the last minute to join my friends for lunch after church, enjoyed an afternoon of laughter and reminiscence of the Canadian days with some good old friends. Parents are currently on their cruise trip, so I didn’t need […]
Busy Weekend
I was just telling a friend on FB how I missed many hiking opportunities because I prefer to rest at home on weekends, but this weekend turned out to be one of my busiest in recent days. Woke up early yesterday for my friend’s wedding. Being a groomsman, it was an all day event. In […]
Running
Went for my weekly dose of endorphin, jogged for a full 10k in 67 minutes. I experimented with a new psychological exercise while jogging today, for each of the laps, I tried to recall the memories when I was at the age equal to the number of laps I had finished. I jogged for a […]
August 25th
Something seems to be special about August 25th. It was this day 4 years ago that I moved back from Toronto to HK, and here I am 4 years later waiting for my flight back to HK and putting an end to my awesome Hawaiian vacation. I just can’t seem to escape from the busy, […]
July 1st, 2013
Thought hard about joining the July 1st protest to show my disapproval of the current Chief Executive of the city, but chickened out the last minute. I could have blamed it on the poor weather or the tiredness from running, but I know good well that those are nothing but excuses. I still very much […]
NBA Game 7
Although I haven’t watched a NBA game for the entire season, I really felt the urge to catch the last game this morning. On my way to work, I kept an eye out for restaurants that may broadcast the game, and I also asked my “coworkers” for possible venues to watch the game near the […]
Soul Searching (Art)
Finished my first painting for the current oil painting course, not too satisfied, but I don’t seem to care as much now. I’m still very much enjoying the process – the weekly 2-hour worry-free and quiet time with just me and the canvas. With the power of FB, I stumbled upon the info of one […]
