You cannot teach a man anything; 
you can only help him discover it in.

Thought the website photos are nice until I saw the ones in print!

See how this was done at different sites.

Life is full of wonder. 

Long Time No See

Thought no one looks at my blog anymore, until recently, a friend complimented on my writing. Thank you, this makes me want to write again.

Thinking back, things have been going on at an extremely fast pace. My graduation, the Europe trip, the Philippines trip, the Taiwan trip, and of course, the Hong Kong trip, and going back home for a short visit. What do I want to do? What kind of purpose do I want to serve in life?

It seems like my life have just begun…

A Tiny Apartment Transforms into 24 Rooms

Have forgotten about Gary Chang's apartment until my friend Bonnie uploaded this video on Facebook. Read about this hidden gem a while ago, I got kind of confused when I was first reading about it—The New York Time's images are stunning, but I couldn't quite grasp the spatial configuration. This video shows us how these incredible movable walls work and I can finally see it in 'real'. Interestingly enough, had never thought of this as an eco-friendly apartment.

Featured in The New York Time's Home & Garden section.
I think it was Man Dao who sent me this last year. Thanks again!

When you have a chance, don't forget to read MCCM Creations' book by Gary Chang himself.

Growth is the only evidence of life.

Kathleen Bogart suffers from Moebius syndrome which limits her facial expressions, a basic universal language. Imagine not being able to show your happiness through your smile.

I love the way she talks—how she communicates so clearly and how she takes it so positively.

Art Therapy Classes

Was recently contacted to hold an experimental art therapy course for 3 autistic children. Was intrigued by this idea since I would be collaborating with an educational psychologist. I've planned to do some research but the Central City Hall Library is actually CLOSED today—yes, I thought it never closes too! Sadly, the local book store sells only Chinese books on this subject; since I know it will take me forever to read a page in Chinese, I've decided to look on the internet.

While looking for videos (I am very reluctant to do reading on the screen with my strained eyes), I found this documentary, "Kids With Cameras", from Polaris Media Group. LOL, please note "ass burger's syndrome" = Asperger's syndrome (1:38).
