It's getting warmer on this trip home to see Mom and my brother. The snow is melting, and yet there is a lot of it to melt. I'm just happy to be home for a bit.

One of our long-serving substitute teachers died over the holidays. They last taught before the break and were to prepare for after. I've been asked to help with some of the multicultural students cope with their grief. It’ll be hard, and I hope I can support them properly.

“For Tang, bamboo embodies Hong Kong’s spirit - flexible, resilient and stronger together. Each bamboo piece is different. Some are bent, curved, or straight, yet they come together to form a whole structure.” - good quote.

GovHK literally (and illegally) wouldn't let Lai hire the lawyer he wanted (Tim Owen) to the point of blocking his visa. When the Court of Final Appeal ruled GovHK was in contempt of court, they had Beijing "interpret" the NSL to make it legal.

But sure, fair trial, rule of law, blah blah blah.

The speech festival is challenging. Most schools pick the most fluent students, but I try to choose those who struggle, often shy. This year was great. The two saw me daily. They may not know their ABCs, but they still came—to gain confidence speaking a second language. It went well, and I'm proud.

As a teacher and budding mental health counsellor, I'm always happy when seeing how different places talk about Autism. These are two documentaries about autism in China and the efforts to increase its visibility. The article is bilingual with Chinese and Eng.
