1000 a Day – Day 6
Short memories of my school: I’ve already mentioned the boarding school I went to. I think it was from when I was four until I was six, just before coming to the US.

1000 a Day – Day 5
This entry was not only late in the first place, but it’s even later in showing up on the blog because it’s being written offline from Hong Kong.

1000 a Day – Day 2

My memories of my early childhood are limited to say the least, though I’m hoping to be able to uncover [...]

1000 a Day – Day 1
So I’m starting a new project. It’s a writing project. And I’d like to take this time to update as some things have happened, most pertinent of which being that we’ve decided to go to Hong Kong this next round of Visa juggling. But the writing. So as some of you may know, it’s relatively [...]
