Just want to wish everyone a happy holiday! I know I’ve been MIA for a long time, and just want to do a quick update!
Everything’s been well and thanks for everyone’s continous support, everything has been really hectic and busy, so I haven’t been able to update. I’ll be back in action mid Jan with updates, so see everyone then!
Thanks again and happy holidays!
Belated Happy new year 2012, and also an early Chinese new year (and another country that celebrates it too)! Since I’d be busy on that day, I thought it’d be appropriate to post this now as a combination of happy new year + happy chinese new year!
It’s been a while since I updated, I want to thank everyone for remembering HJ Story still exist! It’s been a heck of a year in 2011, starting with my marriage, and then the start-up of my company, then things just kept popping up keeping me really busy. I went back to Canada to visit my family in Dec with my wife and her parents. We had a great vacation and now it’s back to work for my in Korea!
This year I have tonnes of new year resolution, and one of them being a more regular update of HJ-Story, there’re a lot of plans I have for HJ-Story that I want to do in the following year, and fingers-crossed, I hope I can accomplish them all!
Thanks again everyone for the continuous support and I hope HJ-Story can bring some smile to everyone from time to time! My wife is so touched that people actually likes HJ-Story, and hopefully it’ll continue to grow through time! Thanks everyone and hope everyone will have a great new year!

Jingo’s first haircut!
I actually drew this a while back and never got the chance to post it, Jingo had his first haircut and when me and my wife went to pick him up, I almost couldn’t recognize him, I thought he was someone else’s puppy :D I thought he almost looked like a mini reindeer…! :D

Love is… being silly!
If people around me finds out how much of a kid I am at heart when I’m with my wife, I think I’ll be so embarrassed to ever meet them again :) Loving someone and being love sets your heart free to be the person you always wanted to be, brings out the silliness in you that you rarely show to anyone else!

It’s almost been 2 years for HJ-Story and 1 year wedding anniversary. For these 2 years, HJ-Story has been created with nothing but love and passion and I want to thank everyone for their support and kind words :)
I’ve been planning preparing this for a while and kept stopping in the middle because of the amount of work needed. I’m building a HJ-Story iPhone app! This time I’d like to ask everyone for their support, if you can please visit HJ-Story’s iPhone project fundraising over at…
HJ-Story iPhone App @ Indiegogo
Even if you cannot donate, please help by spreading the words and also visiting and “Like” the HJ Story facebook page.
Help HJ Story continue to grow bigger, and I promise to keep pumping out contents! There’re many more plans for HJ Story and thanks ever so much for everyone’s support!

Thanks everyone for their great response to the HJstory app fundraising. This is a sample of a redo of one of the original HJstory pic some of you might remember (you can find the old version over in the photos section). Over the 2 years, HJstory started out as quick doddles, to more and more finished artwork. For the iPhone app, I’ve decided to redo some of the old HJS art that were a bit more rough and unpolished :)
For the price of a McDonald meal, you can support HJstory, and be part of the app!

While we were dating, I’d always fall asleep while talking and not even remembering it the next morning, at first my wife gets a bit upset until she started getting use to it :) I still do that sometimes when we just lie in bed chatting next to each other and I just suddenly drops dead asleep haha.

Support HJ Story over at indiegogo. Thanks!
Thanks to my wife for always being there to take care of me when I’m sick. Sometimes, eventho I’m sick it actually feels GOOD to be sick just being able to whine like a kid and get taken care of.

Love is… not knowing what to do sometimes…
No I didn’t make her cry, at least not today hehe. Sorry about the slow upload, I’ve been busy still making the app, it’s a bit harder then I expected, mainly because I want to create a server to push the update instead of getting feed just from facebook, etc. I want to make it right instead of just rushing it. I just want to thank everyone again for visiting the site and being so supportive! :D

Love is… not having to suffer alone. (You being with me when I’m in trouble)
This was actually a piece that was done for a generous supporter during the Indiegogo App campaign (Still working hard on the app yes T_T) Evil and sweet at the same time, I actually had lots of fun working on this pic ^__^
*For anyone that misunderstands this piece, it’s not meant to be anything serious It was a commissioned work and the person wanted to show how her bf is always with her even during the bad times. And she chose to portray it in a dark humorous way, not meant to offend anyone ^^

This was done for a good friend Jake for his wife Ani, to thank her for being supportive throughout the tough times. I personally know I can’t be who I am and where I am right now without the support of my wife as well as all my love ones that had been so supportive through out my life~ Time to let your love ones know that you appreciate their support and being by your side! ^___^

I’m finally finished setting up HJS’s Zazzle store! Please go check it out @ http://www.zazzle.com/hjstory
Many people have suggested me to make Tee and other items, my personal goal is to make it directly and not thru Zazzle. but that’ll probably take a while, my first goal is to launch a book (Does anyone have any hook up with publishers? :D)
With the HJS tutorial (http://bit.ly/hjs_tutorial) few days ago and Zazzle now, I don’t want anyone to mistaken and worry that I’m just going to stop drawing and turn this thing to something commercial. Other then the long term goal of publishing a book, the fund is mainly to help me order a large McDonald Meal while happily drawing :D So now finally the Zazzle store is set up, I done with my short term goal, I’ll continue to focus on updating HJS images! See you guys next week!
New mini Love Permit card at http://www.zazzle.com/hjstory

Share the love ^___^
After months of tedious work (even tho it’s a small app, there were a lot of little things that took wayyyy longer then I expected T_T) Here’s a sneak preview of the HJS iphone App that’ll be COMING OUT SOON~~~, as soon as I fix up on small
