Lunch with Old Friend
Met up with a primary school classmate who recently moved back to HK to further his architectural career. Had a long and wonderful chat with him in wildly unrelated topics including environmental issues, government policies, architecture, design, painting, photography, career, family, friends,… I’m really thankful to have such a friend whom I can enjoy an […]

Job Application
With a bit of spontaneity, I’ve sent out my first job application in HK today! I wasn’t really looking for a job per se, but I came across a part-time research position that seemed like a perfect match for me. The job nature seemed right (research, part-time), the field (architecture, sustainability) is something I’m really […]

Soccer Training
I decided to join my friends to try out a weekly soccer training course in November, and tonight was the last session. It’s kind of funny, I’ve been playing soccer since primary school and this is the first time I’ve actually received some kind of formal training. I honestly do feel more fit after the […]

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 […]
