Crazy Rich Asians

I got to catch a special screening of the movie everyone is talking about "Crazy Rich Asians" at @themetroplexcinema .. I went in with a purely "entertain me" mindset and entertain me it did 😊 琴晚好榮幸可以去睇呢排好多人講起嘅戲 Crazy Rich Asians😁 Special thanks to @etchymcetchy for hooking me up 🙏 Haven't gone to the cinema for a movie in quite a while.. Even forgot to buy pop corn 😅 #funnyvivek #vivekmahbubani #lovemyjob #grateful #CrazyRichAsians #CrazyRichAsiansmovie #movietime #chickflick

So have you watched it yet? It's the talk of the town and super duper lucky me got to enjoy a preview screening of it! I got entertained for 2 hours and that's exactly what I was hoping for, no hard brain work, no over-the-top-special-effects, just entertain me for 2 hours lol....

I've been so swamped getting ready for our upcoming Laugh Festival in September, my days are just zooming by! It's Friday and I'm 80% awake at the moment. Unfortunately, I've been going a little harder than usual on the coffee's (ok so it's at most 1 coffee a day except for last Saturday when I did 2 ahahah what?!
But I'm learning so much and growing so much from organizing this festival that it's worth the crazy effort I'm putting in... I'm really excited about the whole festival and hopefully will be a good start in the right direction to pushing Hong Kong further ahead in the world of comedy in Asia!

So how have your last 10 days been? I've been obediently posting to my instagram account daily and even adding daily stories as well! Sure, you might be thinking "dude, why don't you just focus on writing comedy?" but I have to say, the instagram posts give me a whole different angle on my creativity and I'm quite liking it, especially since it's so much more visual. There's just something about photos that words or videos don't seem to do.

And it's also made me observe the world around me so much more closely than even comedy has because I'm not just finding interesting things, I'm noticing patterns in human behavior, it's really all very fascinating. OK I'm geeking out now.

So it's still very hot in Hong Kong and I'm trying my best to avoid turning on the air conditioner but some day, some days the weather just doesn't make it environmentally friendly, especially when I have a bunch of work to tend to and my concentration is already low.... eeek! Today's one of those days where it just feels extra humid and I could use air conditioning and a coffee, both things I'm trying to avoid as much as possible at the moment ahaha....

Well here's to another awesome 10 days and keep up-to-date with my latest progress by following me on instagram and get an insight into the wacky world I live in!
