Rainbow in Hong Kong

Whoa Rainbow!

This was taken in the morning today in Hong Kong out of my parent’s room. Quite cool I must say, it was a total rainbow and could be seen very clearly. Right now it is raining again.

Consider Me Fine

I have been successfully inserting and removing my contact lenses for 3 days in a row now. I’m pretty sure I’ll be a “Master Contact Lens Wearer” by the time school starts and won’t have to wake up too early to spend time putting in my contact lenses. Yesterday I was able to take them out after about 3-5 minutes and this morning I was able to insert them (both eyes) after about 5 minutes. I did not follow the “official” method for inserting contact lenses but I have my own method and I think a lot of people who wear contact lenses don’t follow the “official” method anyway. By that I mean I don’t pull up my upper eyelid, only my bottom one and I do a couple of other things differently, but hey it works.

To school news now. On Thursday I have to go the registration/orientation day at school to uh orientate with the school. More like get my books, find out my schedule, some school rules (!) and other stuff. I know what classes I’ll be taking, but I don’t know in what order. I’ll be joining the soccer (football) team this year. A lot of teachers left so I’ll be having new teachers in every subject except Mandarin (Chinese). School starts on the 24th (Wednesday) and then it’s back to work. I might be writing less here when that happens but don’t worry.

Eh-What’s Up Doc?

Now for a short site stuff update. I am looking at my site’s stats and July was the most active month for this site with August quickly catching up. I’d say the site is doing quite well. From March of this year, when I started the blog I’ve had almost 85,000 hits, not too bad and it’s getting better. This website is becoming more popular and is getting more links from other websites, mostly blogs. Comments wise, much better than before. July and August have actually had comments while articles from past months always had a “No Comments” next to it. My bandwith usage is also going up but probably won’t hit my limit of 1GB anytime soon, so that’s good. Doing well and will get better.

Shakespeare Was No Better

I’m pretty sure most of you have seen this some time in your life and if you haven’t, well now you did. And the Shakespeare thing, he would spell many things wrong because to him the way he spelled the words sounded right to him so he even spelled his name differently on occasions! Strange.

This Should be a Postcard

Central Skyscrapers

No really, it should. I took it a few days ago in Central and I like it, don’t you? Right now in Hong Kong the weather is not so perfect.
