Hong Kong & Beyond: March 2009
http://kevinjamesburns.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
Hong Kong and Beyond. Experiencing Life Without Borders. Wednesday, March 25, 2009. Staying in San Diego until May. Just received word this morning that my work visa will not be approved for at least another six weeks. That's disheartening news, however there is little that can be done. HK immigration takes longer than even the cynical might have predicted. Tuesday, March 3, 2009. Who are the Chinese? Significant in this equation is how important understanding the Chinese now is. Because really, ther...

Hong Kong & Beyond: August 2009
http://kevinjamesburns.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Hong Kong and Beyond. Experiencing Life Without Borders. Sunday, August 30, 2009. Aim for the Stars. In the long run men hit only what they aim at. Therefore, though they should fail immediately, they had better aim at something high. One year is up. That’s right. It has been one year since I set out on my journey to study, work and travel in Asia. One year ago, it didn’t seem overly ambitious—I had traveled, studied, and worked before—what could go wrong? Did I need to make those big plans? There is rea...

Hong Kong & Beyond: September 2009
http://kevinjamesburns.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Hong Kong and Beyond. Experiencing Life Without Borders. Monday, September 14, 2009. Let's Be Problem Solvers. I sometimes get mad when I receive emails complaining about this or that. Someone isn't happy about Healthcare reform or someone isn't happy about outsourcing work to other countries. It is always the same name calling, bickering and complaining. Do people simply like complaining? Does it help them deal with the ambiguity of an uncertain future? Has it always been like this? Could you imagine if...

Hong Kong & Beyond: September 2008
http://kevinjamesburns.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html
Hong Kong and Beyond. Experiencing Life Without Borders. Tuesday, September 9, 2008. Two Weeks in Hong Kong. When the sun goes down, the city shares a scary resemblance with The Emerald City of Ozz. I was very lucky to find out when arriving at my school that my dorm room would be on the 9th floor, facing Hong Kong Island (where most of the beautiful sky scrappers are). I still use the view from my window to remind myself where I am. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.

Hong Kong & Beyond: October 2008
http://kevinjamesburns.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
Hong Kong and Beyond. Experiencing Life Without Borders. Friday, October 24, 2008. Turns out, all the white people have been hiding in a neighborhood called Soho. Just south of MTR (Subway) station; Central, on Hong Kong Island, Soho is an interesting restaurant district, and here, all the westerns are hiding. Fitting then, that my first meeting with the HK US Chamber of Commerce (AmCham) would be at a nice little Vietnamese Restaurant smack in the middle of Soho. Sunday, October 5, 2008. I turned 24 yea...

Hong Kong & Beyond: July 2009
http://kevinjamesburns.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Hong Kong and Beyond. Experiencing Life Without Borders. Friday, July 31, 2009. A Tribute to Milton Friedman. Today, 31 July 2009, marks what would have been the world-renowned economist Milton Friedman’s 97th birthday. The Lion Rock Institute, based here in Hong Kong, put on a cocktail celebration for the late superstar economist, with a panel discussion, a few youtube clips featuring Mr. Friedman’s thoughts on the markets, and an open bar that I made sure to take advantage of. Thursday, July 30, 2009.

Hong Kong & Beyond: April 2009
http://kevinjamesburns.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Hong Kong and Beyond. Experiencing Life Without Borders. Thursday, April 23, 2009. Long time. Without saying to much about my internship, things are looking up and I'm hopeful that I will be back in Hong Kong in late May. The real reason why I am making this post is because I wanted to share a clip I found on TED.com. Richard St John shares his 8 secret ways to reach success in a humorous and insightful way.
