OLD CAKES @ FRESHERS DINNER

We still look as fresh as the freshers!

This was the 4th Freshers' dinner I have been to, and this year was the grandest of the 4. Hosted in Sheraton Hotel in TST, the dress code was FORMAL! It was SMART CAUSAL for the last 3 years! It felt like I went to a BUFFET FORMAL HALL. They even got a speaker this year (, cos his son just got into cam to read natural sciences! The food was ok... the atmosphere could have been more relaxing at the beginning. I must compliment the organisation of the event as a whole. The games were fun. FaLun tried very hard to explain the rules to us ;) Michelle and Ying introduced cambridge life and traditions to the freshers with a witty presentation. Unknowingly, it's been more than 3 years since I got admitted into Cambridge. Now that I have graduated, it all felt like a dream. Looking at the picture, I still think we look as fresh as the freshers, and yet we have grown and matured a lot during the past 3 years. 高永文醫生 said,"Some of your best friends in life are those you met through university." They are words of experience. Time will test whether it's true. I hope they are. FRIENDSHIP FOREVER!

on 29th Aug 2005

It's the day following the freshers dinner, after getting back home the previous night at around 12mn, I didnt sleep until 2am....the day I got up at 10something am, horray! It's my day off! I left home at round 11.55am, aiming to arrive at HKU at 12.45pm. Kai told me to take either no. 22 or no. 8 minibus from Star Ferry Central, so there I was... Looking at the minibuses deciding on which one to take (of course my criteria was costs!) When I was besides a no. 22, I got shouted at by the minibus driver!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He was so rude! I was shocked...and I was stupid enough to get on his minibus!!!!! No.22 is 50 cents more expensive than no. 8!!!!!!!! Anyway, I got on the minibus, as I had never been to HKU before, I was very alert as to make sure I knew where to get off. As a consequence of being shouted at...I was dare to speak to the driver anymore.... I AM SO SILLY! Why should I get the nerves just because I got shouted at??? I dunno....-_-""" Oh well, I managed to get off where I was supposed to be in time. So all were well.

I met up with Siu Ly and we were then waiting for SIU KAI... we called him at 12.50pm, and he just got up...(((((dot dot dot....*cough* FORUM~)))) UNBELIEVABLE!
Siu Kai...WHY ARE YOU ALWAYS LATE????? :P

HKU food is so cheap, I had a club sandwich which only costed 10HKD!!! and I got a Red Bean drink for another 10HKD! 20HKD sorted out a lunch is rather good value these days!

After lunch, Manfred picked me up with his car and gave me a lift back home. 2 months ago, I asked him to look after my notes for me cos my suitcase was too heavy to take onto the plane. That's why he was giving me a lift home as he was giving me back my notes...THANK U SO MUCH MANFRED!
