World Cup
Suffered an emotional low when my favorite team Brazil got a humiliating (and historic) 7:1 lost a couple of days ago. A game that’s supposed to bring joy and peace to people resulted in buckets of tears instead. I prayed there wouldn’t be a riot. When Argentina played Netherlands in the semi-final this morning, I […]

7.1 Rally
Went with my sister and brother-in-law to join the annual 7.1 Rally. I joined the rally for my first time 2 years ago, didn’t go last year, and this year it felt like I couldn’t afford to miss it. The rally this year is definitely more crowded and tiring. Wouldn’t it be nice to chill […]

Soccer
Played a little soccer tonight. The weather was hot, humid, and windless, so it seemed more tiring than usual to run on the field. But it was good to break some sweat, the game also seemed more enjoyable because of the eminent World Cup fever.

35th Birthday
Gave myself a day-off and visited the Studio Ghibli Layout Designs exhibition in the afternoon. It was amazing seeing the thousands of sketches from the many familiar animated films I had watched over the past, I can only imagine the time and effort it takes to produce a couple of hours of animation. Had dinner […]

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 […]

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 […]

Running
Missed 2 weeks of running, but that didn’t stop me from continuing my climb in running greater distances. Ran about ~12k without rest.

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
Didn’t have time to run last week, made up for it this week. Ran ~11k, trying again to slowly build up my stamina for a half-marathon.
