COVID-19 Journal: A quiet reflection

Strange Year (2020)

Shelter-in-place has made me reflect on the many little things I take for granted, like green onions.

>> May 28: The beginning of something wonderful

>> May 30: Peeking through

>> May 31: S-t-r-e-t-c-h-i-n-g

>> June 1: The final breakthough

June 6: First bud pops!

June 9: On the verge of exploding

June 13: Wooooooooooowwwww

June 16: Starburst!

>> There, the next little bud shoots up.

Discover beauty in every day.

Strawberry Hill Forever

I smiled as I pulled out my Strawberry Hill Birders T-shirt from the package, delighted that my illustration has made a plain white T-shirt come to life with a happy memory. I put it on immediately.…
Love you to the Sutro Tower and back

Sometime in July last year, when the city told us that we need to hunker down for a year (if not longer), I started documenting San Francisco’s weather @loveyoutotheSutroTowerandback. In the last six months, I…
2020: The year I reconnected with nature

Thirty years ago, my parents moved us from downtown Singapore up North – to live opposite a jungle. We would watch Monitor Lizards cross the road and stumble upon the Atlas Moth. We would document…
Getting “screwed” at the dentist’s

After bidding farewell to my Tooth #19, and patiently waiting (6 months) for my gums to heal, I finally got on with Part 2 – getting my tooth implant in place. Nurse: “How are…

August was all about reading more (💪🏼 #SummerStride yay!!!), sulking less about the weather @loveyoutothesutrotowerandback, and drawing birds @alternativebirdfeeder September felt like we are inching out of a long hibernation… reconnecting with people and the great outdoors. {…
