Running
Went for my weekly dose of endorphin, jogged for a full 10k in 67 minutes. I experimented with a new psychological exercise while jogging today, for each of the laps, I tried to recall the memories when I was at the age equal to the number of laps I had finished. I jogged for a […]

Back To Reality
Slept at around midnight and woke up at around 6am this morning, still jet-lagging a little I suppose. Decided to pull myself back to the office today. Cleared up my email inbox and caught up with my news feeds. Spent my yesterday going through the hundreds of photos I took during the Hawaiian trip, gave […]

Uncluttering Life
Finally started rolling out a little website project I’ve started more than a month ago, shouldn’t be too long until I can put a close to it. Also renewed a couple of my IDs so that I can happily do some traveling in August as planned. And now that my mother’s home and slowly recovering, […]

July 1st, 2013
Thought hard about joining the July 1st protest to show my disapproval of the current Chief Executive of the city, but chickened out the last minute. I could have blamed it on the poor weather or the tiredness from running, but I know good well that those are nothing but excuses. I still very much […]

Earth Day
Stumbled upon an interesting quote from an art event promotional pamphlet – “the earth without art is just ‘eh’!” It’s true, I can’t imagine living my life on earth without art! I was motivated to spend a little time this afternoon to do a little art – sketched a little and did a little cartooning. […]

Ready For Work!
Didn’t actually do a lot of work as I planned this week, I can possibly list a few excuses – public holidays on Mon. and Thu., badminton and soccer games on Tue. and Wed. respectively,… But they’re really nothing but excuses, and I had been giving myself way too many excuses, it’s really time to […]

Soul Searching (Dreams)
I still faintly remember the episode when I told my father that I want to be an engineer when I grow up, I was probably in grade 1 or 2 and I was picturing myself designing and building bridges (i.e. a civil engineer). In high school, on the night before receiving my HKCEE results, I […]

Soul Searching (Education)
A rough calculation shows that I had been in school for ~24 years, that’s more than 2/3 of my life! Been trained to be self-discipline at a very young age when I attended boarding school in grade 1, and my family never really had to worry about my academics since then. Frankly not a smart […]

10K Run
Temperature rose above 20 degrees yesterday afternoon and I decided to go out for a run. Haven’t ran for weeks, a bit out of shape, I stopped running after 3k. Thought about giving up and head home, but it was still early, so I found a place to sit, rest, and watch some youngsters play […]

Surrendering
Had lots of plan in my head before the start of this weekend – watch movie, work, clean home, meet up with friends, running,… And I knew it’s impossible to do them all. It turned out my friend had an emergency and the gathering was cancelled, and I couldn’t run because it was raining and […]
