It’s not the most reassuring message to receive when you’re trying to contact your hospital. A big nasty 404 =) And just for those who don’t know what a 404 is (I wasn’t too sure either, heh). Here’s a grab from trusty ole’ Wikipedia to tell us more about the HTTP 404: The 404 or [...]

This post is pretty much part-two of the previous post about the air pollution in Beijing; I’d actually taken more pictures while I was walking through the sand-storm, but forgot to download them off my phone; whoops! I was speaking with my Chinese teacher at 1on1 Mandarin about the recent sandstorm, and she was telling [...]

Hello all! Well this is a strange deviation from my usual once-a-month-update (if even). I decided to write a blog since we had a sandstorm here in Beijing this morning, and I wanted to post a picture that I took from my window- and, well… posting just one measly picture didn’t really feel right, so [...]

This blog is slowly drying up and I’m almost wondering if should even keep this live because I really don’t think I have the time (or motivation) to blog right now; at least for the concept of why I launched this blog in the first place. I wanted to have a career-focused blog as a [...]

So this is another extremely delayed post- shoot, I don’t even remember when was the last time wrote a post. I find it so hard to write these days. Work has been pretty ridiculously crazy, and so by the time I get back home, I just want to veg out and I don’t really want [...]

It was a really really difficult decision because they made an extremely generous offer, and I’ll be leaving some great friendships at MeshTop- but I’ll definitely hope to keep in touch with them. I’ll let you guys know [...]

During lunch breaks, I grab lunch with my project manager, and a group of developers on my team, and they love teaching me random Chinese phrases. Somehow the conversation was about dating and marriage, and it turns out that I’m the only one on my team that isn’t dating or married. They were pretty surprised [...]

This is exciting! I finally figured out how to write in Chinese! Previously, the Chinese characters would just come up as ‘???’; after installing and uninstalling some plugins (which didn’t work), I came across someone’s blog which explained his fix for getting Chinese input to display on his (her?) WordPress blog. It pretty much involved [...]

December 3rd- We’ve already entered the month of December, and it’s been two weeks since I last posted. I really need to figure out a more consistent habit of blogging, because a dead blog isn’t a fun blog. I actually still have some pictures from Hong Kong that I want to post, but I just [...]

I‘ve been meaning to start this blog for a long time now – I guess even as far back as when I was still in the States. I encountered a huge dilemma, though, of choosing a domain name for this blog (and my still-in-the-works portfolio). The problem is that I had started up a career [...]
