Week Review
This is one of those weeks where badminton, soccer, and bball coincide on the same week, I think this is probably as much physical activity as my body can handle. A lot of other things also happened this week. I finally launched a website I had been working on and off for a few months, […]

Mother’s Day
The small orchid I bought my mother last year didn’t last long, so I got her one of the hardiest plant this year – “Mother-in-law’s Tongue”! It was free too as it was branched out from a plant I got 2+ years ago. =) Finished grooming the many plantations in my home studio this weekend, […]

Desktop Plants
Took a stroll around Flower Market this afternoon, the area was busier than usual, probably becoz it’s Mother’s Day tomorrow. Bought 6 different species of succulents to replace the row of unsuccessful plantations on my desk. The previous attempt failed likely because the single species of sedum required more light than what my desk can […]

Work
Had been keeping myself busy for the last few days clearing up some freelance work, I think about 75% of the work had been done. Should be able to transition into a full-time deesigner next week. Weather has been getting quite hot lately, it’s starting to become almost unbearable to work in my west-facing home […]

I had been trying to breed the tiny shrimps for months without success – I can see miniscule transparent baby shrimps, but they can’t seem to […]

Aquarium
It’s becoming one of my most look-forward-to weekend events now – tending my studio’s aquarium! Spent an entire afternoon today and did a thorough cleaning of the aquarium, removed the algae that carpeted much of the stone wall and sediments, hopefully it won’t come back again. Don’t know why there’s so much nutrients in the […]

Living Things @Home
Took an inventory of the flora and fauna I have acquired since returning to HK. There are 30+ pots of plants (mainly succulents and cacti) and an aquarium with 6 corydoras, 7 neon tetras, 10+ cherry shrimps, 6+ assassin snails, and lots of aquatic vegetation. I can honestly claim that I’m making good use of […]

Cleaning Up
Busy cleaning up my place recently. About 75% done for my studio, and there’s also the bedroom and bathroom that I’ve yet to start. Got to get everything done before leaving for Toronto on the 29th. The way I’m rushing through everything and trying to properly leave behind the things for my family to take […]

Mother’s Day
Last year for Mother’s Day, we bought flowers for my mother and resulted in her whining about how the flowers would wilt in a week and we were wasting money, even though there was an obvious smile on her face. This year, I decided to buy her orchids, something I’ve been wanting to try cultivating […]
