Description I love the MTR [Mass Transit Railway] system in Hong Kong, so much so I have created this. I only wish i took a shot of all the stations in the system, now that would have been cool. Next time perhaps.

The MTR is easy to use, clean and just awesome. Something for all other subway systems to look up to

Yeah, I'll be in October in HK, Shanghai and Macau!

Don't worry! My old lady 5D Classic is quite busy.
I did a wedding shoot, action shots of my martial arts
school's performance in a shopping mall, basketball game
and macro shots in a botanical garden. I am developing
those photos right now.

oH HO! I know a couple of friends who have already finished taking shots of ALL the MTR stops. Of course, they were this side of obsessed. But it is a fun project. I do love signs.

By the way, did you run out of pictures? because 'Tsim Sha Tsui' is repeated.

You didn't go to "Sunny Bay" -- Disneyland (O_O)(SHOCKERS)(just kidding, nothing there to see).

I think it's a fun project.

I had to use some others twice too. Yes I did run out oh well.

I did go to Sunny Bay, but didn't get off to take the shot. Been to Disney few years ago. Nothing special. I could think of all sorts of photographic projects I would like to complete in HK, just didn't have the time.

I don't particularly like theme parks - they're "architecture" and displays often border on cheap and contrived -- too obviously fake.

Theme parks are good for only one kind of photography - shooting strangers.

Not sure yet.. Have to move out by next week so kind of busy packing and getting rid of things accumulated over 10+ years

Where you moving to? Moving is a big headache! especially after 10+ years. I'm sure the de-clutter will do you good. You best get to it and stop spending time on here.

Moving to out of this really quiet and peaceful place to another district due to change of school where i work. A new environment with new friends, etc. might do some good I suppose. Thanks for the nudge Andrew

Used to teach Biology & Chemistry, then eventually 'O' level Art for the past few years but as stated in the transfer letter I am to do the Sciences again still bits and pieces to pack, not ready yet

I used to like Chemistry until I flunked at A level. I can't remember much of it any more. Good that you're multi-tasked.

No wonder your English is superb! I wouldn't expect anything less fro a teacher

Keep at it. It will be done either way.

haha not superb flaws here and there. yeah Chemistry is fun but not easy to get the concepts across. Really feel so sorry for the students, have to leave them so unexpectedly, a mere six weeks before the O level. Thanks for encouraging words.. will get my friends to help tomorrow.

Everyone has flaws here and there; nobody is perfect. Yes, I think that's where my chemistry teacher went wrong

Students in the UK have already finished the term and are on the summer break, I guess it's different in Brunei.

Take it easy and don't get too stressed about it.
