We punched another National Park during the last Labor Day long weekend: Redwood National and States Parks. I hadn't been up to it because it was a little far (more than 6 6-hour drive), and I was not sure what the difference would be to other good California
giants
The Giants were officially eliminated from the postseason. And the team announced they fired Gabe Kepler. I liked his team's underdog spirit. I know how that impulsive buying devastated the farm and the team's 2010s. No big-money players, but the team was solid; especially, the 2021

I don’t understand why Unity made such a stupid decision; it should make unrecoverable damage to Unity. Too many pundits have already mentioned this frenzy event. I put this down just to 1) I realize I haven’t written anything in this month, and 2) refresh my claim: "

In my last post about the Karol G concert, I wondered how the Cyalume (LED Wristband) works. And I found the answer. Though I prefer NYT to WSJ, I believe WSJ has been doing great work on their YouTube channel. The beauty of its videos is the short playtime: 5

Porco Rosso (紅の豚) is my favorite movie by Director Hayao Miyazaki. It was a movie from 1992, and I might have watched it more than 20 times. I even translated the script of the movie into Korean and ran it at a small cinematheque in 1994 (when I was a

My first visit to Levi's Stadium this year was not a 49ers game but a music concert: Karol G - Mañana Será Bonito (Tomorrow will be good) Tour. My wife won a lottery in her office for the suite seats; yes, two suite seats, and it was my

My team recently accomplished a great feat, and we could be fortunate enough to enjoy the achievement: a summit at Los Cabos. The only trivial problem of mine was that it was right after my Tokyo visit. I planned my Seoul visit, which included a short 4-day trip to Tokyo)

Yoyogi Park Walking in Yoyogi Park in the morning is one of my rituals in Tokyo. Not only in the park, I love walking along the trail that leads from the park to Shibuya. The passage provides me with a sense of tranquil mystery, which brings me comfort and peace.

As I mentioned in the previous post, I visited Tokyo last week for the first time in three years. When I lived in Korea, my trips to Tokyo were almost a monthly routine thanks to the convenient 2-hour flight from Seoul to Tokyo. But not only the geographical separation between

Last week, I visited Tokyo for the first time in three years since the COVID pandemic began. The plan was set almost one year before with the primary aim to reunite and have a pleasant time with my longtime friends in Japan. But, when I found that the premiere of

I have heard watching fireworks on July 4th is a treasured tradition in the US. However, I've never had a chance to see it. So, when I heard that there would be fireworks following July 3rd Giants' game, I thought it would be the perfect chance for

While Twitter is devastating itself, Meta announced its Twitter killer wannabe: Threads, an Instagram app. I'm uncertain if this is the primary reason for the unusual PvP clash between two tech celebrities, but I am also optimistic about Threads. While I appreciate Mastodon and the elegant Ivory, they
