Unbeatable Typhoon No. 8 & No. 9: Impact on Hong Kong and Reflections on Comfortable Indoor Activities

A typhoon that was supposed to be unbeatable turned out to be not only hoisted No. 8, but also No. 9. Then it was said that it might be upgraded to No. 10, but luckily it didn’t happen. Many friends who came to Hong Kong to attend auctions and art exhibitions that day were supposed to go home, but in the end they were blocked by the typhoon. As a result, they all stayed in Hong Kong for an extra day.

It’s a stormy weather and I can’t go out, so I feel very comfortable staying at home. The World Tennis Masters tours to China and ends in Beijing. After the tournament ends in Beijing and Shanghai, all the stars have gathered. It is very exciting to sit at home and watch the live broadcast. Players who are qualified to participate in the Masters all play well, but playing well does not mean playing well. Therefore, they are also divided into those who are worth watching and those who are not. If they encounter players who are not playing well, they will switch channels. It just so happened that Netflix launched a new season of the French mini-series “Robinson”. I watched seven episodes in one go.

It’s best to prepare some food when watching dramas. There is also a double-yolk lotus seed paste at home, and a cup of Mingqian Longjing tea to continue enjoying the Mid-Autumn Festival in the windy and rainy weather. After spending an afternoon unconsciously, I realized that I had been lying on the sofa for several hours after watching the show. This kind of spreading method has a name in mainland China, called “Ge You Paralysis”, which originated from a picture of the Chinese actor Ge You lying on the sofa. In the photo above, it looks like there is not a single bone in his body. So I turned off the TV and stood up to stretch my muscles to prevent the lie from becoming true.

In the evening, the wind and rain became even worse. On the TV news, there was an earthquake in Japan and continuous artillery fire from Israel. Compared with this, the No. 9 typhoon signal in Hong Kong was insignificant. Amidst the sound of wind and rain, I thought of Lu Xun’s poem: Hide in a small building and become one, regardless of winter, summer, spring and autumn. Although it is an unlucky thing to say, if there is a small building where you can hide in and be united when there is a storm, at least you can make your own decisions and you can live independently. Compared with other people’s natural and man-made disasters, I am blessed.
