A new home
A home with a porch! Wow, apart from growing carrots as Bon Bon would love to, what should I do with this space that would demand the least effort while not turning my home into the eyesore of the neighbourhood? I feel like I’m living my life for the second time. Everything has to be… Continue reading A new home
We are moving!
After weeks of searching, we have finally found a new place to live, yippee! I will have to pack everything back to my suitcases, which shouldn’t be too difficult. We are also looking for some secondhand furniture. May buy a brand new washing machine. And a hoover, but that can wait. I hope once after… Continue reading We are moving!
A walk up the Chevin
While we were getting ready to walk up to the Chevin again, I said, “We shouldn’t waste the lovely nature we have here in Otley. Let’s walk up the Chevin more often.” My dream is we will go for a walk at least twice a week, to train our muscles, and to leave behind all… Continue reading A walk up the Chevin
Meeting a football fan
We were in a phone shop looking for a charger cable. The shopkeeper asked us about the model of our phone, which we didn’t know, so we simply showed him my phone to try which cable we needed. When the cable was connected to my phone, the wallpaper appeared on the screen. The shopkeeper took… Continue reading Meeting a football fan
Online recruitment assessment
I have finally sent my first application letter for a job here in the UK. Did my first ever online assessment yesterday. Thanks Anita for providing me a quiet space to do the test. At one moment I felt hopeful, then the next the positive feelings were all gone. So which is more difficult, finding… Continue reading Online recruitment assessment
Dim sum at Leeds
I had my first dim sum at this Chinese restaurant in Leeds on Wednesday. What we call 飲茶 (to drink tea) in Hong Kong, here we say we are going for dim sum. Don’t go alone. I suggest there should be at least 4 people to share a dim sum meal. That way you can… Continue reading Dim sum at Leeds
The Premier League starts today
Bon Bon’s dream is to become a Tottenham Hotspur player, playing alongside Sonny. He wants the number 5 shirt but unfortunately that’s already taken. But Bon Bon won’t give up, and neither will Hana, who is working on getting Mr Levy’s number. Mr Levy, Hana and call you soon to discuss YOUR signing of Bon… Continue reading The Premier League starts today
Fancy a cuppa?
I like my tea hot, with lots of milk and sugar. The Hong Kong style milk tea is one of my favourites. Now being in Otley, my choice of tea is the Yorkshire tea. I thought I knew more about tea than I knew about coffee. My volunteering work at the Otley Courthouse Cafe involves… Continue reading Fancy a cuppa?
The Rabbit Olympics
I’m thinking about if there is a Rabbit Olympics, what events should be included. How about a long carrot jump? Those horsies who take part in the human Olympics but are not entitled to get any medals are welcome to join the rabbits. Bon Bon has promised he will share his carrots with the horsies… Continue reading The Rabbit Olympics
