Dinner with Old Friend
Bumped into an old friend when I was strolling a DIY marketplace a couple of weeks ago, we set a date tonight to catch up. Back in highschool and early university years when we still send out hand-written snail mails, this friend was my most frequent correspondent. Other than a few phone calls, I never […]

Day 25 – A Day at School
Realized that it has been more than a month since the boycotting of classes began on 9.22… It took 87 tear gas bombs, unmeasurable amount of pepper spray, and numerous baton beating for the Government to finally face the political issue head on with a (fruitless) dialogue with the student leaders. What’s next? There was […]

KANO
If not for my sister’s recommendation, I would probably never go into the theatre myself and watch this 3-hour movie. Thankful that I listened to her, I was inspired and started thinking about my aspirations again. Don’t you just love films that compels you to reflect upon your life and question your life’s purpose?! Am […]

Work
Had been rather busy in the last couple of weeks due to some freelance work and personal design projects. Now that I’ve cleared up some freelance work and sent off some personal design work for printing, my shoulders obviously felt a little lighter! Had been holding off in starting a venture with a friend, now’s […]

Studio
Finally finished setting up my studio today, love the huge desk and screen space of my new work area! From visiting other artist’s studio a few years back, to finding an rundown industrial flat, and finally transforming it into the way I wished, it’s like a dream come true! I feel thankful every time I […]

A Different Sunday
Parents went to Mainland for my cousin’s wedding banquet, so we didn’t have our usual family dim sum after church this week. Went to the studio to continue my chalkboard project after lunch. Was thinking about going for an evening run afterwards, but the sudden rain gave my lazy butt an excuse to rest. The […]

Running
The last time I went running was back on Sept. 8th! Couldn’t push myself to finish an entire 10k without taking a break. Questioned why I kept forcing myself to run when there’s other more enjoyable exercise (soccer / badminton / bball) I can do. There are a few things I like about running – […]

My sister highly recommended me to watch a movie, went to watch it in the afternoon after realizing an exhibition I wanted to go got postponed. It did not disappoint. The movie is a small locally produced film about teens doing what they love and pursuing their hip-hop dancing dreams. It was full of energy […]

Running
Went running this afternoon, jogged for ~12k without resting, my longest running distance yet! Speed was a little slow, but I can work on that later after I’m able to reach the targeted half-marathon distance. On my walk home, I thought about what was said about achieving your dreams from my previous devotional plan. If […]

Creative Monday
Stumbled upon a wildlife artist’s book when I was browsing in a bookstore last time, decided to spend a little time this afternoon to look up the artist’s website. Wow, breathtaking art! The last time I was so awe-inspired by such wildlife paintings was visiting Robert Bateman‘s exhibition in Toronto! I did a little painting […]
