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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

Oil Painting Class

It was a hot and muggy day, thick dark clouds were hanging on the sky, but it just couldn’t quite squeeze out a drop of rain.  Wished it would just let it pour and cool down the city.  Couldn’t quite get myself to do any productive work in this weather, ended up wasting an afternoon […]

Spring Rain

Life is pretty much back to normal after a few sick days.  Something in me seemed to have changed however, I was working unusually diligently and feeling good about it.  Maybe it’s true – “What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger!” The weather also seems to echo my inner renewal.  It has been raining since […]

More Illustrations

Spent another day doing illustrations for a small freelance job, Adobe Illustrator is quickly becoming my friend! It’s a cool and rainy day here in HK, and it will likely stay this way for much of this week.  Feels good being able to close my home studio’s door without worrying being baked by the scorching […]

Typhoon No.8

If I remember correctly, this is the first time the typhoon no.8 signal was issued since I returned to HK 2 years ago.  Offices and schools were closed, but for people who works from home, today is just another regular work day.  I managed to get some work done in this crazy weather.

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 […]

Hottest Day?!

Just when I thought the hottest days were behind us, the local temperature reached as high as 35 degrees today, the highest thus far for the summer!  I sure hope the heat won’t last too long before the daily temperature starts its gradual decline. I think one of my threestrip corydoras is dying. It may […]
