Goodbye Summer

The evening temperature is notably much cooler these days, I was able to sleep without A/C for a few nights already. With summer slowly fading away, life seems to be getting back to normal again.  My regular weekly exercises (badminton, soccer, etc.) is starting again this week after the many weeks of dormant lifestyle.  Work […]

Soccer

Was dragging my feet walking home after soccer tonight.  Realized I haven’t done any exercise for a few weeks already, was out of breath, out of shape, very exhausted tonight. It’s starting to feel slightly cooler at night now, it’s about time for me to pick up jogging again, but need to buy myself a […]

HK Geopark

My family and I joined a local tour to visit the Geopark yesterday.  I totally forgot about it until the night before, had drinks with friends till rather late and ended up sleeping very little before the trip.  As a result, the trip seemed rather exhaustive, I spent every minute on the bus and on […]

Soccer

Checked my calendar, the last time I played soccer was back on June 6th!  Felt good to once again play the sport I love most.  Was a bit out of shape, but it felt good to sweat in this sweltering heat. Had a breakthrough this afternoon, after dreading for months, I finally started a Flash […]

Typhoon No.9

Crazy winds were brought to the city thanks to Typhoon Vicente, this is probably the craziest storm since I returned about 3 years ago! The typhoon came at a really bad time as tonight is the first Monday in months that I don’t have to attend painting class, and I thought I could enjoy a […]

Last Painting Class

Had my last oil painting class tonight, painted my first non-fruit/veggie painting.  Had spent 12 Monday nights learning and practicing on this medium.  Every class (except for the first 2 classes), we would first see the instructor demonstrate for about half-an-hour how to paint a fresh fruit/veggie, then we would go to our separate painting […]

Busy (as expected)

Time just seems to fly by when one is busy.  Thursday is almost over when I’m writing this, what had I done in the last few days?  Participated in a research study and realized I’m negative for Helicobactor Pylori, visited the Picasso exhibition, painting class, etc.  And for work, I had done some supporting work […]

A Busy Week Ahead

The Observatory issued the first T1 of the year, signalling the start of the typhoon season.  This might explain why I’m feeling a little headache all day. It’s Father’s Day today, our family ditched our usual dim sum place and went to a different restaurant for lunch.  I didn’t eat much as my stomach was […]

33rd Birthday

Didn’t really celebrate my birthday today, but my heart was filled with overwhelming thankfulness.  For one thing, my parents actually remembered my birthday and gave me red pockets this year (they usually just remember my lunar birthday).  Then, one after another, my FB was flooded with greetings from friends, and I didn’t even make my […]

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, […]
