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 […]

Busy Week
Last week was a rather busy week, spent most of my time setting up the studio – moving the heavy shelves, painting walls, mopping floor, assembling and arranging furniture, and cleaning up. The place should be ready for my “co-locaters” and their stuff to move in tomorrow. Also managed to squeeze some time last week […]

CNY Designs Completed!
Worked till 5am in the morning, managed to finish some CNY designs for my church in less than a day! Hope the designs are ok and not too much changes will be needed. Woke up late this morning (~10am), I probably would’ve slept in even more if I didn’t need to go back to the […]

Creative Monday
Went to the studio to do a little planting this afternoon before heading to my oil painting class, was about 15 minutes late. Finished another painting, not too satisfied with this piece. Didn’t seem to have the mood to paint tonight for some reason, maybe it’s the subject of the painting, or maybe it’s just […]

Competition Entry Submitted!
Slept for probably just about 4 hours last night, and was hard at work in front of my computer most of the day without the slightest nap. Finally got my design submitted to a competition just before midnight, hours before the deadline! I would never get things done if not for deadlines, the power of […]

Busy Weekend
I was just telling a friend on FB how I missed many hiking opportunities because I prefer to rest at home on weekends, but this weekend turned out to be one of my busiest in recent days. Woke up early yesterday for my friend’s wedding. Being a groomsman, it was an all day event. In […]

Hawaii Trip – Day 5
Played the part of an amateur wedding photographer for my friend, find it rather difficult to capture people’s split-second expressions. I did try my best to capture as many smiles as I possibly could, and there were quite a few sweet genuine smiles I saw through the camera’s eyepiece. Happy to be able to witness […]

Hawaii Trip – Day 1
After 3 flights, and a hectic search for car rentals, I’ve finally arrived safely at the hotel in Kona, Hawaii! Barely slept on the plane rides, really tired now, will sleep early tonight.

All Packed Up
Finally finished packing for my little Hawaiian vacation! Barely slept last night in order to pack as there wasn’t much time to do so today due to friends’ gatherings. I’m actually heading there for a friend’s wedding, but it would be silly of me to travel such long distance without staying for a bit. I […]

Running
Sometimes I liken running to shooting free-throws – it’s the same repetitive motion and the height and distance from the hoop is pretty much constant, but even though you’ve practiced a million times, the percentage made just can’t seem to improve much. I ran 10k this afternoon, just barely made it through, and the time […]
