I quit Duolingo a few days ago. For about 2 and a half years, I did lessons almost every day. I decided to stop because the app started to invade my personal space and peace. At first, I tried to lengthen my streak to 1000 then quit, but after the annoyance of waking up and deleting the app icon from my home screen literally every day (it appeared automatically out of nowhere), I just…

[Writing prompt 33] People are quite near-sighted, I assume.

You get some great, amazingly fantastic news. What’s the first thing you do? Is it true that society expects us to show no emotion at all? When you are happy and lucky, people envy or talk down on that. When you are sad and desperate, people disdain or elude you. Believe it or not, the true answer is not only about how one should feel or do, it’s also about with whom they feel or do it. I…

[Drawing] Portraits

An Art Gallery Corner of Hiko’s Stopover Station! A collection of my works, from the first drawing I still keep (2010), to the latest one (2024 and ongoing). I used to post them on Ig but 2 years ago I quited using Social Media, so, I guess, displaying at a shop in my station is not a bad idea. Not too out-standing, yet should be proud about the journey. I am not so good with colors, thus, I…

[Photography] The Sun, the Moon, the Stars and the Sky

This is a collection of all photos I have taken of the sky during the past 12 years (2012-2024). You may ask, why the sky? – Yeah, it’s just a routine from when I was 13, that was the Mid-Autumn Festival when I was too introverted to hang out with kids next door and went up to the rooftop, looked up, and started to talk to the Moon. From then, I fell in love with the above. And as soon as I had…
