CNY 2014
Chinese New Year 2014 has come and gone quickly and plainly. It was the hottest CNY since I came back to HK, so hot that I had to switch back to my summer blankets to sleep well at night. It also felt a little busy, it wasn’t until today (10th day of CNY) that I […]

HK Saxophone Ensemble
Was entrusted with the responsibility to take my little nephew to attend an orchestral performance because my brother and sister-in-law had prior engagements. It just so happens that my fellowship was cancelled tonight, and it’s been awhile since I took my nephew out on a little date, so I happily took him out for a […]

Fellowship Retreat & Running
Got back from a 3-day fellowship retreat in a lovely site in Lantau Island. I’m thankful for all the committee’s arrangement, without which I wouldn’t be able to enjoy a relaxing time away from the city. Retreat is a great opportunity to get to know fellow b/s more, and being at a remote area, I […]

Creative Monday
Got a free ticket to see an art exhibition today. It seems to be targeting at the very wealthy art collectors, and I find it amusing that many foreign galleries (Paris, London, New York, etc.) are here selling arts made by native Chinese artists, it seems as through they’re trying to make a fortune off […]

Tai O Day Trip
Father was invited by friends to pay a visit to Tai O, my mother, sister, brother-in-law, and I decided to join. I was there mainly just to stroll around, take a little breather, and shoot some photos. Enjoyed the tranquility and took some lovely photos of the local flora and fauna.

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
It’s been more than a month since I last ran. Ran for about 6k, felt like I could run more, but didn’t want to push myself. The evening temperature is finally beginning to fall below 30 degrees, it’s about time to train up myself again. Doubt that I can actually run a half marathon as […]

August 25th
Something seems to be special about August 25th. It was this day 4 years ago that I moved back from Toronto to HK, and here I am 4 years later waiting for my flight back to HK and putting an end to my awesome Hawaiian vacation. I just can’t seem to escape from the busy, […]

Site Study
Spent a casual afternoon at the HK Science and Technology Park to do a brief study of the site for the architectural design competition. I really like the atmosphere there, it feels just like the huge campus I spent ~8 months in working as a junior researcher for what used to be Canada’s biggest technology […]
