Soul Searching (Family)
Told my parents over dinner about how I wish to shift away from freelancing and focus on starting some serious work, they seemed supportive of my decision. Ever since I cleared up my freelance work and revealed my unclear future career plan to my family, they had been offering me advices/assistance – my brother forwarded […]
Busy Holiday
I don’t remember the last time I slept pass noon, but it was close to 1pm when I woke up today! I must be really tired last night. It had been a rather busy holiday, there was only one day that I didn’t have any gathering with family or friends, and I used it to […]
Holiday Gatherings
Just realized that I’ve been having dinner with my visiting sister and family for 5 consecutive nights! Our family of 14 had our last afternoon dim sum today before my sister’s family took their flight back to Toronto. I’m always thankful for my family and friends, but the frequent gatherings recently seemed to have left […]
Christmas 2012
This year’s Christmas is one of the busiest. After an early church service, I rested a little and cleaned up my place before meeting a friend from Toronto for afternoon tea. Had dinner with my family and then got home for a late drink with my good old housemates. Drinks ended at around 2:30am, now […]
Family
One of the things that I’m always thankful for is my family. Being the youngest member in the family growing up, I’m always pampered and well protected. My family is also the main reason why I decided to move back to HK 3 years ago. Since moving back, our family have been carrying on the […]
Creative Mondays
Bought myself a new “toy” this afternoon, I’m hoping that it will rekindle my joy to sketch. Haven’t tried it yet though as my afternoon was spent helping to babysit my 2 nieces from Toronto. Had my weekly painting class at night and finished the second painting, still found time lacking and had to rush […]
Sunday without Dim Sum
Parents are away on their first ever cruise trip, so our usual family dim sum didn’t take place after church today. I spent the extra couple of hours this afternoon to cleanup my bedroom and home studio, that’s on top of my regular weekly grooming of plants and aquariums. Enjoying being home alone, there’s no […]
Gatherings
After treating my family for sushi last Sunday night, I used the prize money for the design award to treat my friends BBQ this afternoon. I figured the best way to use the prize money is to spend it on family and friends. There was another friends’ birthday gathering at night, and it was all […]
An Incident
It was an evangelical Sunday worship at my church this morning, a few people accepted God into their lives, thank God! The invited speaker shared a scripture about how God is able to make the blinds see, and I just happened to encounter an interesting and somewhat relevant experience shortly after the service. While rushing […]
Voted!
Voted for the first time in HK today, it felt curiously good. I really don’t consider myself as much of a political person, but this weekend has been nothing but that. First came Friday when I finally decided to read up on the recent protest on National Education, didn’t like it one bit and made […]
