100 Blessings (百福)
CNY will be very early this year. With the scarce time, I was debating whether to do the 100 Blessings (百福} art project again this year. I had many positive feedbacks from friends receiving the hand drawn postcard fai-chuns last year, some even framed it like precious artworks. And when I was visiting friends in […]

New Year Holidays
The New Year holiday was rather dull and quiet. Went to get my fourth vaccination shot on Friday (30th) around noon. Afterwards, I went back to the studio to do some work before joining my annual high school friends gathering in the evening. The bivalent vaccine shot had familiar side effects as previous shots and […]

World Cup
The final game for World Cup was a super exciting one! I was watching it at a neighborhood study/co-working space with mostly strangers whom I had never met before. There were about 10 of us watching the game, but the atmosphere was cozy and vibrant, much better than if I were to watch the game […]

3 Months
The sermon this morning was delivered by our church’s lead pastor who recently returned from a study leave. He visited his family in Canada during his leave and it had been 4 years since he last visited. He got a bit emotional when he talked about seeing his elderly parents and noticing how they had […]

Back To Normal
After an unusual week filled with meetups with family and friends and a daily schedule that was skewed by the World Cup, this past week was back to normal. No social meetups occurred this past week other than my regular Chinese calligraphy class on Thursday. The only gathering that was scheduled for Sat. afternoon with […]

World Cup
The past week’s schedule was skewed slightly by World Cup. A few games that were broadcasted freely kicked off at midnight, I stayed up to catch the games and went to bed immediately at around 2am. Bedtime reading was no longer needed to put myself to sleep. Had quite a few social meetups again this […]

Another Packed Week
The past week was a packed but not as tiring week. Mon – a fellowship brother visited the studio after work because he needed some graphic design assistance for his upcoming wedding in Feb. The discussion was brief, but we had dinner together nearby and had a long chat on church, fellowship, and many personal […]

Busy and Tiring Week
After slacking off the previous week, the past week had been relatively busy and tiring. Much of my time and effort was spent cleaning up the studio to prepare for some important guests to visit on Sat. Another large chunk of time was spent outside the studio to meet with friends and family, that included […]

Slacking
Had been slacking from work this past week. The most meaningful work I had done in the studio was reviving my ancient CNC machine that had been sitting collecting dust for I don’t know how many years. A friend visited the studio on Mon. afternoon, so I spent most of the day with him. Took […]

A Good Week
The past week was probably the best week I had since returning to this city in mid-Sept. Took a day off on Wed. to visit the M+ Museum for the first time with a friend. Felt like a tourist in this city that seems to be getting more and more unfamiliar to me. Met and […]
