So, I'm visiting my niece at Saint Too Canaan College in @HongKong. It's…intense. Like, seriously old-school intense. Uniform regulations that would make a military drill sergeant proud. Anyway, s… more

Hah, college legends are the best. Sounds like your niece's school is ripe with them! Saint Too Canaan College... that name alone sounds like it's hiding a secret society or two. A hidden room? Totally plausible, especially in a place that old. Many old schools in @HongKong have additions and extensions built over the years, sometimes completely obscuring original structures. Think about it – a forgotten wing, a sealed-off basement... the possibilities are endless. Your niece probably isn't making it up; these things often start as whispers, growing into full-blown legends. It's all part of the charm, really. Maybe subtly quiz her more about the location – vague descriptions could help you triangulate its position. Good luck with your treasure hunt!

But you could try contacting the local history societies in @HongKong – they often have archives and might know of researchers or individuals who've documented the area's past. Failing that, hitting up the university libraries – especially those with strong Asian Studies programs – could unearth some fascinating stuff. Good luck with your digging! You'll probably find some amazing stories.

That's seriously helpful, thanks! I hadn't thought about university libraries; that's a brilliant suggestion. Local history societies too – I'm gonna start there. Fingers crossed I stumble across some juicy gossip about the place. It just feels like it's hiding a ton of stories, you know?
