Happy New Year!

Today is the last day of 2025. I hope all of my friends here have a wonderful 2026, filled with happiness, health, and fulfillment!

My Strawberry and Blueberry Plants

1

I want to show you my strawberry plants.

When I moved into this apartment a month ago, the sunshine on the balcony was so great that I decided to do something with it.

Three weeks ago, I bought a blueberry plant.

Two weeks ago, I bought nine strawberry plants.

Now, I have several small blueberries and strawberries growing on my balcony.

Yesterday, I made this video of my strawberry plants.

Do you like them as well?

I mentioned my blueberry plant several times, but never gave you an image of it.

So, here it is.

There was something I didn’t mention in the video: A week after  I brought it into my apartment, a berry ripened. I was so happy when I saw it in the morning, but it had disappeared by the time I got home in the evening

Then on that weekend, I captured a suspect with one of my cameras– it was a turtledove.

My New Plants

I bought some new plants after moving into my new apartment.

The first one I got was a blueberry plant. When scrolling on my phone, I accidentally noticed that the blueberry flowers are cute and beautiful. When my blueberry was delivered to me, it had a few burries and some flowers at the tops of the branches — that’s a long story. But that’s a story for another day.

After planting this blueberry plant, I found it was fun to grow fruit because you could enjoy both the flowers and the fruit. Then I bought some strawberry plants.

I’m very happy when I get up and see my fruits getting bigger and bigger every day.

The True Limitation

I like to record my travels and hikes when I return to my work routine. It’s kind of a relief for my daily life.

Thus, I wrote a long article about the same experience as what happened in yesterday’s YouTube video. In Chinese, of course.

I realized that maybe it was the language, but not the pictures and videos, that limited my expression yesterday.

If you can read Chinese, welcome to see it.

I’m a bad recorder

I said I would share some videos and pictures of my National Day holiday.

When I opened the album on my phone, I realized that I’m bad at recording.

I came across so many wonderful things, so many vegetables, fruits, and fish that I had never seen before, but I didn’t capture any of them.

I also met many kind locals and had some nice chats with them, but I didn’t record them.

I spent more than one hour preparing a video, but the only thing I can show you is this short one.

Please tell me if you have any advice.
