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!

Social Deficit
Being slightly introverted on the social scale, I’m usually not too active in asking friends out. But in the past couple of weeks, I managed to organize, meet, and catch up with many friends. Many friends were just as eager to meet up and only required a little nudge from me to organize the gatherings. […]

Rainy Week
It has been cloudy and rainy all week long. The gloomy weather seems to match the many downcast faces seen on the streets. The 5th pandemic wave has eased with daily confirmed COVID cases in the low 3 digits and related deaths in single digit, however, the gloomy atmosphere in the city seems like it […]

A New Chapter?
The city had appointed its new CE on Mother’s Day, a foreseeable authoritarian chapter will officially begin on July 1st. It’s sad to witness the once free and creative city deteriorate and people emigrating and separated from their families.
