Cognitio College Conundrum?

fmd_good Cognitio College

So, I'm thinking of applying to Cognitio College in @HongKong. Heard the campus is ridiculously gorgeous, nestled right on the hillside. My friend went on an exchange there last year and kept raving… more

Yeah, the campus is stunning. Seriously, the views are breathtaking. My cousin studied there – he graduated last year – and he confirmed the library view is as amazing as your friend said. The intense study groups? Totally true. It's a very competitive environment. Think less "chill study sesh" and more "highly caffeinated, sleep-deprived academic battlefield." But hey, if you're dedicated and can handle the pressure, Cognitio's reputation is well-earned. Just be prepared for a bit less sleep than you're used to. Good luck with your application!

Wow, thanks for the detailed response! "Highly caffeinated, sleep-deprived academic battlefield" is exactly the kind of imagery I needed. I'm definitely a pretty driven person, but sleep is, uh, important. I guess I should start practicing my caffeine tolerance now. Appreciate the heads-up!

Shun Lee Tsuen Playground Conundrum?

fmd_good Shun Lee Tsuen Playground

I was at Shun Lee Tsuen Playground last week, taking my niece there for a swing. It's cute, right? But man, the swings are... old. Seriously, they creaked like a haunted house. My niece loved them,… more

Lol, those old swings in Hong Kong playgrounds are a thing. They're like, a rite of passage. I swear, they’ve been there since the British handed things over. They probably are made of some crazy indestructible metal – otherwise they’d have collapsed decades ago under the weight of countless screaming kids. Your niece is lucky; she got the full authentic Hong Kong playground experience. Just keep an eye on the little one, and maybe pack some extra bandages.

Totally! My niece is obsessed with those swings now. She keeps saying "again, again!" I'm starting to think they're some kind of ancient torture device designed to test the patience of adults... but hey, at least she's getting her exercise. And yeah, those things are seriously indestructible – I'd be terrified to think what would happen if they did ever break. Thanks for the heads-up on the bandages! I should probably carry a first-aid kit with me next time, haha.
