I was surfing through Facebook killing time yesterday and stumbled on a friends page. I saw she had collected all these brilliant ads which I think is really cool and wanted to share. Check it out. Thanx Lena Park. More to come soon !

If you really want to touch someone, send them a letter.

Music Day at Studio with Nick

Brandon Chang — Tue, 17 Nov 2009 19:29:41 +0000

A few days ago, I finally had the chance to listen to some of Nick Chou’s music. I was surprised coz I didn’t know it was a song he recently recorded and wrote himself. His song got me jumping ha !

Nick has always been very active making beats and mixes under his alias name DJ Urban Flow. I see big things happening for him. He’s got talent, passion, he’s very deeply involved with fashion and his debut album will be dropping in a few months. All I can say is, he’s ahead of the game at his age and he’s got all the support from the homies !

Very nice studio

That’s a lot of buttons and switches… damn Confusing !!!!!

Weekend BBQ

Joe and June’s BBQ party over the weekend was a blast. We do this every 6 months or so, this time was even better. Food, music, alcohol and weather was perfect. After alcohol started kicking in, Reach got his pen/paper and started drawing everyone instead of spray painting ha !

Thanks Joe and June for the wonderful weekend, looking forward to the next BBQ session !

On the road in China

Brandon Chang — Wed, 11 Nov 2009 04:38:43 +0000

This surprises me in China.

Guys carrying 5 times their weight walking for miles.

Freestyle driving, no traffic control, cars coming from all angles, a lot of honking but no one gets upset.

Afternoon lunch with Uncle Stephen

Brandon Chang — Fri, 06 Nov 2009 12:46:37 +0000

Had a great afternoon catch up with Uncle Stephen at Sevva , officially my new favorite spot in HK to wine, dine and enjoy the scenery. It’s PRICELESS to hear from Stephen his points of view, business advice, words of wisdom and amazing stories he shared with us.

Sevva is located on the 25th floor, Prince’s Building. The best outdoor spot in town with sceneries overlooking HSBC head quarters, the supreme court, fully appreciating the high rise architecture and overlooking Kowloon side. No where beats this spot especially on a nice cool day.

HSBC Headquarters

Amazing architecture

Supreme Court

You can see the development in Hong Kong. Reclaiming land from the sea.

Uncle Stephen. Here’s one of his many toys he brought out. I think it was halloween inspired !

In case you’re wondering, no Stephen is not an actor, he’s actually one of the most successful entrepreneurs I have the pleasure of knowing. Thx for lunch uncle Stephen, looking forward to catching up more soon.

HOGAN EVENT

It was nice to be invited to check out the Hogan event on a weekday. I’ve been away for a minute and i didn’t expect to recognize anyone, to my surprise there were a lot of familiar faces and it turned out to be a wonderful night !

I often forget how beautiful Hong Kong really is.

Hong Kong - Day 1

Brandon Chang — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 09:40:08 +0000

It has been months since my last visit to Hong Kong. Our first stop, we went to Mong Kok to link up with Billy Pang aka the Sneaker Beast / Sneaker King at ” DA HOOD ”

Billy introduces DA HOOD to bring new flavor into the mix of Mong Kok’s famous sneaker scene.

MTR is definitely the most convenient way to get around in HK. Even though it’s THIS packed. Still better than sitting in traffic just trying to get across the tunnel.

Nice bike!
