The morning ritual

Are you a morning person? I can say I am generally a morning person. I cannot stay up too late, normally not past 11 pm. When you think about morning person, what time do you have in mind that this morning person wakes up? Last time, I would think it is about 6am. Many would […]

Technology for Productivity: Yay or Nay?

There is always 2 sides to everything. Same with the use of technology. Some say technology is the source of distractions hence it is one of the causes that lowers your productivity. On the other hand, technology has also changed the way of our lives, be it personal or work. We cannot deny the needs […]

My Sincere Apology

I am guilty. I am sorry. To all who have left me comments and feedback for the past few years, I am very sorry that I only saw them recently. I feel bad that I did not reply to all of them and now even if I want to reply, it feels a bit pointless. […]

Reading Challenge 2019

After the last reading challenge 2018, I’m actually quite excited to see what’s the reading challenge going to be for 2019. I didn’t expect to complete the whole list for 2018 but it did help me get started and improved my reading list. Similarly, I hope I can do even better for 2019 with this […]

Goodbye 2018

This blog has always been on the back of my conscious mind that it needs some updates. Unfortunately, I simply couldn’t bring myself the time to really sit down and pen my thoughts…until today, where it is already near to the end of year 2018. How time flies, in just a year since my last […]

Reading Challenge 2018

I recently realized that I hadn’t read much in 2017. If reading textbooks and project reports counted as something, then I had read quite a number of them. Around the end of January 2018, where semester had come to the end, I started to look around for reading inspirations. I knew there were many reading […]

Hello 2018

Yeah, hello to all! I guess I’m rather late to wish everyone “Happy 2018”. It’s already February. How time flies! However, I guess I’m still not late to wish whoever celebrating Chinese New Year, “Happy Dog Year 2018”. Haha! It’s the end of another semester, hence I’m finally taking my time to update this blog.

Last post for 2017

Many months have passed since my last recap for June and July. Just when I thought we reached half year point during that time, it’s already end of the year now. Many events had happened in these few months, especially in September. I actually had trouble putting my thoughts down when I was in grief. […]

The 5 Choices for Extraordinary Productivity

After holding this book The 5 Choices for more than 2 years, I have finally finished reading it early this year. What took me so long? Not productive enough? Not really. I guess it’s due to I practice each choice once I finished reading it. My own experiment with implementing these choices and trying to […]

Teaching Evaluations

As a member of the teaching staff, I get to be evaluated by my students near to the end of every semester. I normally see the evaluation feedback in the following semester and I have to acknowledge the ratings and comments given and to reply with my own feedback if necessary. For the first semester […]
