back in Stockport now, tidying up a lot of things, and throwing away a lot of stuff, getting ready to move houses to the new London flat in Russell Square.

It has been a long long time.... into my 14th year in the UK and getting rid of a lot of heritage and childhood memories is quite saddening.... i must not be nostalgic and move on, look forward to settling down with mom in London....

things i used to enjoy as a past-time:

1. Drawing: comics from Shen Dou Shi, jet planes (various transportation), town planning plans, animals and noah's ark

2. Learning Chinese and Mathematics by myself: a lot of primary school textbooks from China and past exercises I have done 10 years ago.

3. Shakespeare plays and poems: think I read all of them and analysed Macbeth for school

4. Reading adventure books (Famous Five, Hardy Boys) and watching AirWolf and tapped tonnes of nature programmes.... you know what, I could have been an artist, biologist, urban city planner, peace campaigner or actor but no, I chose to be an investment banker....lol... such the irony of life.

5. Sports: Volleyball, footy and rounders...when i got older and bigger, hockey, tennis and then finally basketball....
