Illustrations
My friend referred me to a small freelance job to design an A-4 sized leaflet, I’m both excited and thankful for the opportunity. It must have been at least a few months since I indulged myself with indian ink and watercolors, some good times. There are times I imagined myself to be an illustrator, and […]
10K Run (Training)
Finally started training for my 10k-run today, ran 5 km in a bit over half-an-hour, felt good. The real run will be on Nov. 20th, I have about 3 weeks to train up myself. I started logging my runs, it will mark my progress for as long as I continue to run. If my body […]
Aquarium
Bought another batch of cherry shrimps today. The last batch of babies lasted for about 2 weeks, hopefully this batch of adults would be hardier. My ultimate goal is to sustain a healthy population of shrimps with minimal maintenance and energy input to the ecosystem…
A Case of the Mondays
My legs are still sore from jogging 4k last night, still not quite sure if I can train up myself to complete a 10k run in about a month’s time… I don’t know if it’s just my body calling quit, I couldn’t push myself to do any work today. I don’t feel like dragging my […]
dEEsigners’ Headquarter
Took me about a week to design a 3D model of our new dEEsigners’ Headquarter. Incorporated into it some of the environmental design strategies I’ve learnt through school, guess it wasn’t a complete waste of time and money to pursue my last M. Sc. degree… Next step is to furnish our new office and arrange […]
Aquarium
The weather is considerably cooler today, I have been waiting for this sub-30 degrees weather to start my dwarf shrimp aquarium, a small (30x30x30cm) tank I had setup in my bedroom about 2 weeks ago. Bought a batch of 20 cherry shrimps and acclimatized them before setting them free in the tank. They 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 […]
A New Beginning
Today is the great back-to-school day for my nephews and niece, I’m also marking this day as the beginning of my journey back into the real world, saying goodbye to the tender embrace of academia. In the process of starting a company, something I had been wanting to try for many years. Excited but at […]
Aquarium
Bought half a dozen baby Panda Corydoras, love seeing their tiny active bodies swim and curiously explore their new home, bumping into other elder corydoras along the way. Hope they’ll be able to adapt and strive in the relative warm water.
