Creative Monday
Hardly did anything creative today other than stroll around furniture and design stores looking for inspirations for a design competition I plan to participate in. During my regular weekly oil painting class tonight, we started a new painting. One of my best friends initiated a conversation today about starting a little business together, this isn’t […]

Studio Renovation IV
Day 4 – Finished painting the wall, my biggest piece of artwork ever! Time flies when I’m working in the studio, was a little late arriving at fellowship tonight. Good thing I didn’t miss the programme. We welcomed a few guest speakers to talk about career, something I’ve been thinking a lot lately. I seem […]

A Real Studio?!
I don’t remember for how long and to how many people I’ve been saying that I wanted to rent an industrial unit as a studio/workshop to do some messy work (e.g. painting, soldering, woodworking,…), and I may have just found one today, and possibly for $0 rent too! It just so happens that my family […]

Received 1st PayPal Payment!
Received my first ever PayPal payment today! It was the half-payment for a small website revamp project I’m working on now. Although it wasn’t a big amount, but it provided me some much needed encouragement and a little inspiring experience… What is interesting about this small project is that it is the first time for […]

Ready For Work!
Didn’t actually do a lot of work as I planned this week, I can possibly list a few excuses – public holidays on Mon. and Thu., badminton and soccer games on Tue. and Wed. respectively,… But they’re really nothing but excuses, and I had been giving myself way too many excuses, it’s really time to […]

Reality Check
It was good to be able to spend a little time to do a little soul searching for the past week or so, but can’t afford to dwell in dreamland for too long, it’s time to do a little reality check… It’s not that I’m afraid to pursue my dreams, in fact, I still dream […]

Soul Searching (Dreams)
I still faintly remember the episode when I told my father that I want to be an engineer when I grow up, I was probably in grade 1 or 2 and I was picturing myself designing and building bridges (i.e. a civil engineer). In high school, on the night before receiving my HKCEE results, I […]

Soul Searching (Work Experience)
Counting co-op experiences (internship) and excluding freelancing, I had accumulated about 6-7 years of work experience. With the six 4-month co-op work terms, I was given the opportunity to try out different jobs (researcher, web developer), working in different fields (opto-electronics, software), and for different companies and organizations. I still remember vividly my first work […]

Soul Searching (Education)
A rough calculation shows that I had been in school for ~24 years, that’s more than 2/3 of my life! Been trained to be self-discipline at a very young age when I attended boarding school in grade 1, and my family never really had to worry about my academics since then. Frankly not a smart […]

Soul Searching (Hong Kong)
Parents had a dinner gathering to attend, I spontaneously decided to buy some takeout and eat by the Victoria Harbour at TST. It was the annual WWF Earth Hour, saw the lights across the harbour being turned off and back on again, the HK’s skyline definitely looks much better without the ugly blinding signages! Spent […]
