I read that you are stressed, but I see that you are living through your exercise, your guitar, your violin, your work, your education, your self-care of mental health, and your participation in your medical appointments. You exemplify living and living for yourself.

2nd point on the slide, "I suggest looking for girls of a different age [read: younger] and ones that did not live too far." The illustration/slide template with the crayons are the chef's kiss on these talking points.

Hong Kong's embattled domestic workers - the engine of the middle class - earn HK$5,100 a month. GovHK is enacting a crackdown on their side hustles.

The most adept authoritarian government would sell the naming rights and rename this 維他奶公園；it would de-colonize while giving an identity/product that Hong Kongers can identify with, and a "compromise" name for some. And in 20 years' time, no one will remember what was 維園。

It was a thing when I bought a kitchen knife in Shanghai in 2010, around the time of Expo, had to put my info down on a piece of paper. But I never bought another knife in Shanghai since then. I don't know if it's still an ongoing thing.

A really good article. If the author were to write a follow-up, he could explore those Asians with surnames that consist entirely of vowels (e.g., Ooi), consonants (e.g., Ng), have just two letters (Ng again along with Oh, Ho, etc.), etc.! 🙃
