It’s sure been raining a lot so far… my uncle mentioned that there shouldn’t be as much rain considering that it’s approaching fall, but so far, this prediction isn’t true… but I do know that temperatures are dropping, so there should be less rainfall as well. Nothing particularly significant overall today other than church and […]

I never realized before that their culture is similar to that of minority youths in the States; their education is not as […]

Glad there wasn’t anything too serious today. I wound up not having classes due to the typhoon, but there was very little damage around where I lived, so that was great to hear. I only worked a bit on my chemistry lab and also went out to go ice-skating for the first time in a […]

Nothing too much happened today other than going to church and sticking around at home waiting for this typhoon. Hope things turn out well!!

Another long day with lots of food! I went out for dim sum with family at around noon… so much food might drive you crazy… or sleepy. Afterwards, I headed out to church for fellowship and then later went to Victoria Park in Causeway Bay to view the lanterns. They were really amazing! What was […]
