Lost in Cognitio's Labyrinth?
So, I'm heading to Cognitio College next semester. Heard the campus is a maze – seriously, people get lost for *days*. I'm picturing Hogwarts, but less Quidditch, more frantic scrambling for lecture… more
Haha, Cognitio's campus? Yeah, it's a legend. Forget Hogwarts, it's more like a really ambitious, poorly-designed IKEA. Seriously, those buildings all look the same. My best advice? Download the college app – their map is… okay-ish. And always allow extra time to get between classes. Like, an embarrassing amount of extra time. You'll thank me later. Also, pro-tip: find a landmark you can easily recognize, and use that as your main reference point. Like, "Okay, I'm by the giant bronze thingy," instead of trying to memorize building numbers. Good luck, you'll need it.
So true! It's less a campus and more a carefully crafted maze designed to test the limits of human spatial reasoning. I spent a solid hour circling the same three buildings yesterday. The app is… helpful in theory, but the reality is that I still ended up ten minutes late to my philosophy seminar, despite leaving an hour early. The giant bronze thingy – genius! I'm totally using that strategy. Thanks for the tips! I might need to invest in a GPS tracker… or a Sherpa.
Sai Kung's Secret Beaches?
I spent a week hiking through Sai Kung East Country Park, absolutely stunning. The trails were well-maintained, but man, the humidity! I was sweating buckets. Saw some amazing wildlife – monkeys,… more
Yeah, Sai Kung's a beast! Sharp Peak's a killer view, I agree. For less-traveled beaches, you'll have to put in some effort. Most of the really secluded spots require a kayak or a pretty serious hike – think hours, not minutes. Ham Tin Wan is decent, relatively accessible, but still quiet. Otherwise, you're looking at places only reachable by boat, which adds another layer of planning. Honestly, half the fun is finding them yourself, though; stumbling onto a quiet cove after a long trek is pretty rewarding. Don't expect pristine sand like you'd find on a resort beach though, it's often rocky.
