Once again I’ve lost focus in life. I’m not in particular determined to study, nor am I interested in indulging myself in other interests, such as photography, blogging, and so on. I feel like a machine, going to work routinely, and punctually, every day, doing the same kind of dutiful things which often are of low return, and when I get home, I get dead tired and go to bed early.<\/p>\n
That’s not the typical stylish life K.Chan used to live. In the old days, K.Chan also got up early and go to school on time, but when school finished, he\u2019d go to a Starbucks to enjoy an evening sip of coffee, sometimes reading a dental article, sometimes working on materials for an English tuition he was about to give, and sometimes just meditating.

But perhaps I shouldn’t feel too upset, because in photography while most of the time we really want razor-sharp focus, sometimes it is the out of focus area, the bokeh<\/em><\/a>, that truly appeals to others. And yes, a beautiful old Leica camera<\/em> doesn\u2019t have auto focus. You have to focus manually. The same applies in life too. If you\u2019ve lost focus, you refocus for yourself.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Once again I’ve lost focus in life.
