Kiwi.

Crochet amigurumi.

I also used to play various musical instruments for personal enjoyment.

My coffee mug. I have it for more than 30 years and still use it regularly, even if not on a daily basis. I have obtained others through various means over the years but still hung onto it all this while. It doesn’t even have a chip or flaked off bits of it’s design.

I also have a hole puncher that my dad used as a young man. It’s probably close to 50 years or even more. It’s all rusted up now and doesn’t really see much use to be fair, but it still works for what it does.

Harvest Moon /Story of Season games.

Stardew Valley.

Diner Dash series of games.

From Australia, there’s Rake, Miss Fisher’s Murder Mysteries, and The Nowhere Boys, although for that last one only the first 2 seasons.

My current Australian obsession is Bluey.

Doc Martin, Merlin from the UK.

Murdoch Mysteries earlier seasons from Canada.

I also enjoyed a few Korean drama series like Misaeng.

And this is really old from Japan, but Bayside Shakedown drama was really fun.

Other Japanese dramas I liked include Proof of the Man, Aibou, and Shinzanmono. I love Japanese police dramas and mysteries.

I enjoyed cooking and baking as well as needle felting and crochet to make amigurumi toys.

I also liked to read, study languages and collect the odd die-cast model cars.

No longer as much since I rarely have time anymore, but I played piano and other keyboard instruments, and dabbled in drawing.

London Fields was one of the worst films I have seen that I can still remember off the top of my head. Nothing made any sense, and I can’t even remember anything about the film other than it being nothing more than one bizarre scene after another.

House and Boston Legal. Hard to choose between them.

That was probably a Star Trek reference, not about Robert Kardashian.

I have a wall where I hang masks bought from my trips on vacation. A few other walls have landscape paintings and posters.

A pair of shoe of proper width EE. My feet are fairly wider than average, and suffered for years in improper width footwear. Never thought my feet could actually feel comfortable in footwear.

Over here in Asia, it has always been referred to as bubble tea, from the literal translation of ‘pao pao cha’. When it caught on in the west and took on the name of boba, it was a source of personal confusion for me, as ‘bo ba’, as rendered in hanyu pinyin, could meanssomething quite different.

Nothing usually. I prefer to focus on solely the task at hand, even if it’s just eating. I find that when I try to watch TV or videos while eating, I will simply end up not concentrating on either and then take forever to finish my food, or get nothing out of what I was trying to watch.

Have always wanted to be able to play the cello, whose sound simply resonates with me.

Hotel Dusk.
