About Me
Welcome stranger. I’m Alex Ng (Alexandre Ng Ping Cheun), a passionate writer, poet, and avid explorer of life’s many facets. This blog is a reflection of my diverse interests and a space where I share thoughts, experiences, and creative expressions.
Poetry
Words are abstract objects that, when arranged in particular ways, have meaning for me and might summon other meanings for you. Words are also time-sensitive, illusory, and incantational. Here, you’ll find my poetic musings, where I try to touch the innate part of people that is still primal.
Philosophy
I love delving into the big questions about life, existence, and everything in between. I’ll paraphrase the existentialists by saying: “try to find meaning in the absurd.”
Political Insights
Though I try not to go too public with my political views, I nonetheless like to comment on the broader aspects of politics. I don’t care who said what or who did what, but more about what it means in terms of societal movements.
Reviews
As a food enthusiast, I enjoy discovering delightful places that not only cook delicious food but also have great service. Restaurants are also about service, ambiance, price, creativity, etc. I’ll share my honest reviews of restaurants, businesses, products, and whatever I feel needs a review.
History Anecdotes
I’m a fan of history, it is a treasure trove of fascinating stories. I’ll bring you intriguing anecdotes from the past, shedding light on lesser-known events and figures that have shaped our world—things that have roused my curiosity.
Photography
A picture is worth a thousand words. In fact, it is a thousand ideas and thoughts… It’s like a tiny window fixed on an even tinier moment. Never seen before, never to be seen again, but somehow familiar. Photography is about familiarity rather than optical lenses, beauty, or composition.
Thank you for visiting my blog. I hope you find inspiration, knowledge, and a sense of connection here.
