paaatches, oh what can i doooooo
i’m thankful for my mostly happy childhood so that in difficult - and even not-so-difficult - times in my adulthood now and especially being so far away from home, i can take refuge in nostalgic childhood sounds and memories like all these oldies my dad loved to listen to. even on evenings as these when there’s not much to be stressed about and i’m ( Read more... ) -
it must have been love
listening to this tonight; can’t embed it now cos i’m in bed on my lj app. the song is an old classic but i really like this slow drawly version, which i heard tonight on the last episode of the order on netflix (a silly teen flick not worth your time; i watched it so you didn’t have to, lol). late-night chats and thoughts. may the rest of this ( Read more... ) -

week eight
this past week has been the best of my year so far, imo. i'd give it a 5/5 - a marked improvement from the previous week's 3.5/5 (the extra 0.5 only because it was cny hols). details if i ever find the time. this past weekend was also pretty fab. got my hair cut, brows trimmed, self scrubbed raw, lots of laundry done, flat cleaned, and even spent a ( Read more... ) -

on technology, impatience and being gen y
just spent the last two hours frantically trying to fix a sudden internet connection problem on my home pc. after much frustrating to-and-fro with two unhelpful pccw technicians on the phone and then applying a truckload of googled suggestions on my own to no avail, i finally decided to reset my entire win10 network as a last resort. the reset, ( Read more... ) -
my moment of epiphany: i don't care if you will still love me tomorrow
hello, i'm back in hong kong now. arrived home at 2am (exactly 24 hours ago); flew back a day (or more) earlier than planned because of a talk i somehow signed myself up for. on the cab home as we rounded the tsing ma bridge in the wee hours, the shiny container ship lights winking at me in the harbour down below, it felt good to be back. there's ( Read more... ) -
leave all behind, said he
dear dear journal, on my first official day of freedom today, i woke up feeling ... a little lost, empty and uncertain. i know it'll all come together soon enough though so i'm not worried about this strange strange feeling of ... just having nothing i'm obliged to do. ( Read more... )
