The School Bus

It does'nt help huffing and puffing up the enormous hilly campus and reaching my destination to find out that a campus bus does reach the place...

The Mahjong Culture, HK

During my first week here, my HK hostel neighbours came over n asked me to join them across the hall for Mahjong as they were looking for a 4th player. I tried to explain that I dont know how to play mahjong...Friendly as they are, they started teaching me n told me to learn as I play along. It is quite comical as I am not very sure abt my tiles n often look at the person next to me n ask

Me(Out of curiosity - pointing at his tiles )
:
"Is that
中? You waiting for 红中?"
The poor guy : " Shhhh!!!! Dont tell others my tiles!!!"

We often ended in fits of giggles during mahjong sessions... They are just too nice to tell me not to sabotage their game(which I'm still so confused abt)

The Non-Local Student

4 hrs flight and I'm in bustling HK for the next 3 mths n its our orientation week. I guess as a SG Chinese, our culture is more or less the same as HK Chinese. Here is what I as a non-local student will experience :

1) Lots of Leng Zais - Yes, I come here for exchange program but it wont hurt to look at the many handsome HK guys around right? Plus, they are better dressed here(pffft...not in boring T-shirt, shorts n slippers)
2) Food - Oh yes.... food, glorious food! I have high standard of the food here. (PS : HZ, I will tag u lots of Cha Chan Teng photos... U can see but u cant eat! Muhahaha!)
3) Night Life - HK is a city that never sleeps so here I come =p
4) Hostel Life - After 3 days here, hostel life in HK involves a lot of marching, song singing n laughing loudly in corridors (eh....Sounds very much like sec sch). Yes, we learn how to sing the Hostel song - Viva St John. (eh..) Oh... I was told to get some formal wear for high table dinners here, which is an important part of HKU hostel life.
5) Making New friends and have fun -Yes! That's a good reason why I'm in the exchange program. There's no way I'm going to hole up in my room and I'm getting ready my adventurous streak.
6) Photography - Photos, photos, lots of photos. The thing is, I'm too lazy to post them up =p
7) Lastly, mugging - Oh groans.... Wait, most lectures are on tues n thurs. So cheers!!!

Till date, stay tune =p
