December 16, 17 Both of these days I spent mostly at home, mainly to relax and finish some touches on a paper. It was a much-needed rest. Thankfully I was able to recover quite a bit. December 18 I went to TST to meet up with some classmates at a hot pot place called 牛陣. […]

Still recovering… Went to church in the morning and then stayed at home to relax for a bit. Not too long afterwards, I was picked up to have dinner for my great-uncle (my 五公), who had his birthday today. There were many people there, most of whom I have not recognized or seen before. Even […]

I traveled with my uncle to Hong Kong University and then walked around some streets in Central, including Hollywood Road. Not long afterwards, we met up with some other relatives and […]

Thankfully I was able to survive through the week and will go to the doctor today. Other than taking finals, some notable events of this week include eating at a […]

In the morning, I had a chance to go to another 大牌檔, this time closer to where I live, at 大埔墟 (Tai Po Market). Their specialty was the pork chop and noodles. Afterwards, my relatives and I walked around the market, mostly for them to explain what this fish was or what that animal was. Shortly after […]

The afternoon was focused on studying for the quiz later and then later taking the quiz, which turned out to be not too bad since the questions were given beforehand. After the quiz, my friends and I headed out to Yau Ma Tei (油麻地) to eat some rice and some other good food. Finally, after […]

After an afternoon filled with studying for exams, I went with some classmates to Central to eat out at a Japanese buffet. The food was quite good and it was a decent price ($160). Then, we went by ferry to TST to see some Christmas decorations.

I had a chance to – with the assistance of a professor – tour around the science department for a bit to learn about the various lab equipment they have. I thought it was highly considerate of him to do so; I was able to learn quite a bit in that short amount of time. Afterwards, I […]

November 30 Nothing in particular: attended fellowship and then headed back home for some studying. December 1 I went to church in the morning, and after practicing for a drama, I went to my friend’s place to have hot pot. It was actually my first time eating hot pot at a friend’s house in Hong […]
