This trip was special. I celebrated my birthday with new (close) friends, on another country adventuring. Hong Kong is the fourth country I have my birthday. Usually on my birthday, my mom will cook mee-suah (面线) for me. It’s been a tradition in my family to eat noodles on our special occasion, such as birthday. Noodle means longevity by the way. Since I studied in Melbourne before, my mom can’t do it but she still asked me to make my […]

Having fun is harmless, really
Second lesson I learnt from my trip is, having fun or just lose it.
Living virtually
The first part of my trip experience will share about experience living in two world. Hope that it doesn’t sound cheesy but two world I meant here are real world and online world.
Lessons learnt from the road
One of the reasons I didn’t blog much last month is I was on a week overseas trip. There are some lessons learned within this period. I’d like to make note of it (into different post), as well as sharing it. This is the first time, I write a series of posts. So, I’m looking forward to hear what you think about it too. *UPDATE: Living virtually Having fun is harmless, really Older or wiser, you choose.. Tolerance tested
Just do it?
Recently I watched Green Zone starred Matt Damon, Greg Kinnear, and many more. An interesting dialog came out in the movie. Doing something for reason, not just the job. Sometimes it just happens to us. We have to do something either for work or maybe for ourselves, for our friends or our loved ones. Doing it is not the hardest part, but when it comes with specific request that we don’t really agree or against our conscience, will you still do it?
Blogger apprentice
On one afternoon, my friend sent me a personal message through messenger. He noticed that I update my blog on daily basis recently. He compliment me for being able to write regularly and told me that he is struggling with finding ideas for his personal blog. This friend actually has another blog, about JavaScript programming. I read his occasionally and I find it was well written. He provides examples and detail instructions, as well as theory behind it and tips […]
The day when I didn’t get what I want
On many occasions in my life, I didn’t get what I want. Below are some of the big lost in my life (and some big found too). I hope you bare with me, since it’s going to be a bit long than usual and I hope that you can find these stories helpful. The story line Starting since when I was at my primary school, I was thinking joining school marching band was cool, maybe to play some instruments or […]
A thing called passion
My friend said a very interesting statement yesterday, “Although someone has interest on doing some kind of work, doesn’t necessarily means he is the right person to do it. Sometimes you need to go beyond normal, to give more than what you are required to do.” The conversation was happened during our lunch time, and we were discussing about work (well sadly yeah, sometimes we discuss about work even during our lunch time). Her statement made me think about some […]
