11 years on....


Sorry for the sentimentality but I am just taking some time to reflect. I arrived here in Hong Kong exactly 11 years ago today. Above is a tiny little entry from my journal/sketch book that was written exactly 364 days and 23 hours ago. What crappy hand writing! Looks like I gave myself 1 year to find my path. I wouldn't have guessed that less than three months later I would be cast for my first film, Bishonen and my life would change forever. Isn't life interesting. I was dealt a good hand and have been rolling with it ever since. I'm well aware others don't get chances like mine and I am so so appreciative of this gift I've been given and all the support I've received along the way. Thanks for all the love!

Very touching! I believe that little things make life great; simple words explain the complexity. This entry is one of them. My support is always with you.

It's beautiful to reflect of your past.. it actually remind your root of what your are today. By reflecting the past.. you can actually appreciate things better.

I do the same things as you.. I am staying in Malaysia for 10 years this year and when the day that I arrived I always think back the times up to this moments.. happiness sadness.. lots of memories bad n good.. but they are after all a good experiences.
Life is interesting.. life is challenging.. we all grow up with all the experiences we have.
And we are very lucky to born as a human which we can encounter such a experiences.. so I really appreciate with my life and never take it for granted.

reflection of the past allows us to realize the now... it's even nicer to do this when it's positive because you can see how much you've changed or grown.

personally, i say a great big thank you to you - for doing what you do and being who you are. You inspire me in many ways on many levels.

You know I quite enjoy reading your blogs. Interesting that you were basically one of us just not long ago. A fellow Chinese American who grew up in another part of California who led a pretty normal American life up until your move to HK. You have definitely made it to stardom and it's pretty refreshing I must say to be able to read a HK superstar's occasional two cents. I wish u continued success!!

Can't believe you are so sentimental the way you still keep the paper.

I don't believe the reason you become so successful is just because you are luckier than some other people. From my "not to much" experience of working with you, a professinal,attentive, thoughtful,humorous and self-respected person like you, I think you deserve the success.Keep going on to be cute:)

PS; I love the comment writen by Monchichi, especially the part of never take things in our lives for granted.
