Hong Kong vibes

 

DNA Tour: Backstreet Boys

Third-wheeling in Hong Kong, what a fun, unexpected evening. Highlight include the diversity of the crowds, local aunties, school kids, domestic helpers, tourists, expats all jamming out to the Backstreet Boys.

New job: Waiting for comp

It's a strange feeling, having signed a new contract. Waiting to resign, but still pretending to be engaged with work. My heart is half involved, but also already disconnected. I need to act as if i'm 100% engaged, while I wait for my bonus. It's such a dirty word, compensation time, bonus time, waiting for a number that sums up our worth. Still I need to be involved with strategy, be apart of the interview process for new candidates, motivate the team and try to fend of business travel. It wasn't a clear cut decision, but it has been made.

Really enjoying the time in Hong Kong. It feels like a Friday, one long Friday, that anticipation before the weekend.

Covid: No more masks!

959 days, the world's longest mask mandate ends tomorrow. There is a collective sigh of relief. I would expect majority of the population to continue to wear masks, the elderly, those who have a 10 year supply, or those who just want to keep their faces warm until Springtime. It's a weird feeling, the last semblance of what was one of the most impactful events to my generation. It's surreal, but also, finally.
