Back To Reality
Slept at around midnight and woke up at around 6am this morning, still jet-lagging a little I suppose. Decided to pull myself back to the office today. Cleared up my email inbox and caught up with my news feeds. Spent my yesterday going through the hundreds of photos I took during the Hawaiian trip, gave […]

Simplified Week
Life has become routine and simple again this week. Other than my spontaneous and creative Monday, everyday seemed to be about the same – started with a light breakfast at home, then work at the office, followed by dinner at home, a little TV, shower, brush up, devotion, and sleep. Saturday was the highlight of […]

Aftermath Of Competition
Started working from home again since my mother was injured early July. And for the last week or so I even moved in to sleep in my home studio to focus on completing the submission for the architecture design competition. Worked restlessly – there wasn’t a night I slept before 3am, and I even pulled […]

Site Study
Spent a casual afternoon at the HK Science and Technology Park to do a brief study of the site for the architectural design competition. I really like the atmosphere there, it feels just like the huge campus I spent ~8 months in working as a junior researcher for what used to be Canada’s biggest technology […]

Uncluttering Life

It was a panel discussion regarding the local government’s plan on reclaiming land along the coastline for development. The first speaker presented, he was a government […]

Unscheduled Day-Off
Woken up at around 4am by the blasting sound of thunderstorm, I seriously haven’t felt a storm that loud and in such close proximity before, my half-awake mind was flashed with surreal images of bomb blasts and civilians running for their lives… Alarm went off, and I simply turned it off and continued sleeping as […]

Received 1st PayPal Payment!
Received my first ever PayPal payment today! It was the half-payment for a small website revamp project I’m working on now. Although it wasn’t a big amount, but it provided me some much needed encouragement and a little inspiring experience… What is interesting about this small project is that it is the first time for […]

Working At Office
Started working at one of the spare desks in my brother’s office today, it’s been years since I worked in a formal office setting, it was productive but a little tiring. It may take a little time to get used to working in a formal environment with regular work hours, but I think this is […]

Creative Mondays
Spent some time this afternoon to finish where I left off yesterday in caring for my home succulent “farm”, didn’t have time to do any creative work other than attending my weekly painting class. Seems like I’ll be having a busy week with work and gatherings. I’ve accepted a small website revamp job that should […]
