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. […]

World Cup Craze
Every four years I transform myself into a soccer fan trying to catch the World Cup games at the most inconvenient times (I never seemed to be at the same time zone of the World Cup host countries). I don’t usually watch soccer games, and it must be more than a year since I stopped […]

CNY’s Day
Was rather tired last night, deliberately turned off my phone and slept before midnight. Slept pretty well. Woke up at around 9am and did my daily devotion, then made coffee and had breakfast while turning on my phone and replying to the expected floods of CNY greeting messages. Had dim sum lunch with my family […]

Short Okinawa Trip
Joined my sister and brother-in-law on a short 5-day trip to Okinawa last week. The trip did recall memories of my trip to Hawaii 4 years ago, that’s still one of my best trips thus far. I once again got to see the boundless horizon of the ocean, which is becoming somewhat of an annual summer tradition […]

Movies and Dreams
After the exhausting craft fair on the Sept. 10th weekend, I thought about going on a short vacation to re-energize myself before getting busy again for the new Fall “co-op term”, but abandoned the idea as I don’t know how to justify the cost of going alone and without a purpose. Did a brief stay-cation […]
