Also […]

WFH… Inktober 52
After a month of being a web programmer and completing the redesign of 4 websites, I gave myself a break this past week to indulge in art. I first set aside my laptop to make room on the only desk I had to draw. Never turned on the laptop again the rest of the week. […]

Helping Others While WFH
Some of my CNY postcard fai-chuns started arriving their North American destinations this past week. My friends started messaging me one by one the photos of the Blessed Sleeping Tigers, I was happy receiving their messages as much as they receiving my little pieces of art. The past week had been rather gloomy. Local pandemic […]

Work From Home (cont’d)
Continued my second week of working from home. Never stepped outside the apartment from Monday to Friday (likely my personal record). The only person I saw was my sister next door delivering me a couple cans of egg rolls. After updating this personal website the week before, I kept on doing more web work and […]

Work From Home
Started working from home last week as the 5th pandemic wave was rather severe with daily COVID cases in the low 4 digits. Got back into doing some website work. Finished backing up and updating the design of this personal website and was more than halfway done for one of my studio websites. Working in […]

Website Update
Started working from home this week due to the worsening 5th pandemic wave. I’m not too worried about infection because I just had my booster jab a few weeks ago, shouldn’t be life-threatening even if I unfortunately become infected. Nonetheless, it’s probably still better to stay home to lower my chance of needing to line […]

100 Blessings (cont’d)
Started sending out the Blessed Sleeping Tiger postcard fai-chuns early this past week. As my friends started receiving the snail mails, thank you messages started pinging my mobile phone one by one. Many of the messages came with a photo of the cards received. They were proofs that my friends liked and cherished my little […]

Social Isolation
The government announced that it will extend its current unreasonably strict pandemic measures for 2 more weeks into the CNY holidays. Besides my weekly calligraphy class meetup and a consultation session at a paper artisan workshop, my time this week was mostly spent at the studio and at home. Had a funny thought this morning […]
