Farewell Good Friend
I was up all night prototyping a Christmas gift that I hope to print and send out to friends this Christmas. Went home afterwards to wash up and take a much needed nap before rushing to the airport to farewell one of my best friends. I’ve known this friend for close to 30 years, I […]

Laser Cutter/Engraver
Have been slightly busy lately experimenting with a low-power laser cutter/engraver, brought back fond memories of the co-op student days working in the laser micromachining lab in downtown Toronto. That was way back in 2002, never expected the niche skill set would still be applicable after 10+ years!

Iron Ring
Recently made a cable-stayed bridge model in the studio, just for fun really, and I figured there’s probably no better place to put my iron ring than inside a bridge (model) I’ve designed and built! It feels a little strange not having the ring on my pinkie after all these years, feels like leaving behind […]

Time
The watch that I have been wearing for close to 7 years stopped running today, it was a gift from my brother given when I visited HK in X’mas 07′. I’m guessing the battery ran out. But since a little bit of the glass face was chipped off, I figured this would be a good […]

Thankful for friends in my old workplaces, being self-employed now makes me miss those fun times […]

And for this August, 6 family members (including me) decided to join a short tour to Japan. The […]

World Cup
Woke up to watch the 4am Brazil vs Cameroon game. I suddenly recall the time when I watched the World Cup with 3 good friends in the summer of 98′ before we went our separate ways to start university. The 4 of us lived in the same apartment building and went to the same nearby […]

Soccer
Went to my alma mater in the afternoon to sit in on a meeting about a possible website project. While I was there, I checked about using their library service as an alumni, I really loved their cross university library system in which I can borrow books from any local university, but apparently, alumni can […]

Mai Po Night Tour
Joined the night tour at Mai Po this evening. It was a good trip away from the city, the last time I saw such a gorgeous sunset was in Hawaii last summer. I know, I really should get out of this city more often.
