As a dedicated Giants fan (you know), I was preparing to share my thrilling experiences from my season ticket membership in my next post. However, all those memories paled in comparison when I witnessed the heart-wrenching moment of JH Lee collapsing after hitting the wall. JH is going to have

Last month, I took a business trip to our Seattle office. It was a Sunday afternoon flight, so I found myself with some free time in the evening. Since Downtown Seattle is already quite familiar to me (and many places were closed in the evening), I opted to do something

Finally, it is baseball season again. The Giants bolstered more arsenals right before the season's start. As a Giants 2024 season ticket holder, I found myself at the ballpark on both Sunday (with my family) and Monday (alone). There's something magical about being there, but this

The TV might just be my household's most precious gadget. It's the one thing that brings all my family members together on the big screen, which is why I tend to invest a bit more in it. All my family members love to watch something on

My next reading was "The Space Between Worlds" by Micaiah Johnson. I have wanted to write a Sci-Fi novel in English someday (one of my goals before hitting the age of 50, which means the clock is ticking for this year). I believe the cornerstone of a compelling

The announcement that Macy's in San Francisco is closing added another somber note to the city's atmosphere. However, what truly shocked me was another story: the closure of Lee's Deli. Back in 2008, when I was working on Market St., Lee's Deli

This week, I had a surprising reunion with an old friend I hadn't seen in more than 15 years. He's an engineer at Samsung in Korea, and here's the kicker – he contributed significantly to developing the first iPhone. It might raise a few eyebrows,

In January, I embarked on a business trip to South Korea and Japan, a fun adventure that was not only about work but also in a personal and cultural sense. My stay in Tokyo this time was especially memorable, thanks to the opportunity to immerse myself in the local cinema.

Lately, finding time to write a blog post has been a challenge, but I can't miss sharing my thoughts as the 49ers advance to the Super Bowl. My earlier hopes for Purdy have not only been met but exceeded. He hasn't just returned to form; he&

This time, we ventured to Palm Springs/Desert to visit Joshua Tree National Park. The drive took us a bit longer than expected, around 11 hours, including a few breaks, one of which was at Harris Ranch. The busy Christmas season added to our travel time. We stayed at the
