Fellowship
Thankful to be able to join fellowship again after more than a month of absence. Saw many welcoming smiles from b/s, and many of them said I looked a little thinner now… We had this exercise to find someone we didn’t know too well and stare at him/her silently for one full minute, I took […]

Painting Class
Due to illness and holidays, it had been more than a month since I last joined my weekly oil painting class, felt good to be painting behind the easel again. A few of the classmates asked about my illness and wished me good health, they even saved me the chocolates and cookies they gave out […]

I hope to utilize the area more in 2015 and do more illustrations/cartoons on my spare time. I also spent a lot of […]

A Little Reflection
Doctor said I can go home and continue the medication tomorrow!! =) A little reflection of the 10+ days of hospitalized experience: I believe this is God’s way of telling me to rest and reconnect with Him. When I was suffering from continuous high fever, feeling most vulnerable with the thought of death crossing my […]

My good friend’s Big Day. Helping out as an amateur wedding photographer, I woke up early to meet up with the groomsmen to start the full-day celebration. I had a hard time with the groom’s camera, though it’s relatively compact and light, the digital viewfinder was annoyingly sluggish, and the camera’s interface was hardly intuitive. […]

“Bachelor Party”
It’s my good friend’s Big Day tomorrow. Rather than throwing a crazy bachelor party for the groom, we decided to simply have a couple of drinks. One of the friends came back from Toronto and another just arrived town earlier in the morning from Tokyo. It was a happy reunion of friends.

Day 28
Did something mischievous. =) The Government can take down the giant banner at Lion Rock, but I bet they can’t take down this small one at my studio door!
