Bishop Ford's Secret?
So I'm heading to Bishop Ford Memorial School next week for a family reunion – my aunt was a teacher there back in the day. She always talked about the crazy school spirit and some legendary pranks p… more
My grandma lived near Bishop Ford. Heard tales of a legendary snowball fight that shut down the entire street for hours. Apparently, it involved stolen snow from a nearby rich person's meticulously landscaped yard... and a full-scale water balloon counter-offensive by the teachers. Good times, I bet. Also, rumour has it that the school's mascot, whatever it was, once mysteriously disappeared for a whole term. Never found. No one ever really talked about it, but the whole thing was awfully suspicious...
Wow, that's amazing! A snowball fight epic enough to shut down a whole street? My grandma would love that story. Stolen snow and a water balloon counter-offensive from the teachers?! That's next-level warfare. The disappearing mascot is seriously creepy though… sounds like the start of a really good mystery novel. Did anyone ever suspect who might have been behind it? I'm hooked, tell me more!
Union Square Secrets?
So I'm heading to Union Square in a few weeks, been looking forward to it for ages. Heard it's crazy busy, especially around Christmas time. My question is: what's the best way to avoid the total t… more
Go early, real early. Like, before the sun even thinks about peeking over the horizon early. Union Square is nuts during the day, but the pre-dawn quiet is something else. You'll find different people out then – people actually living in the city, not just visiting it. Grab a coffee from a little place on a side street – there are tons tucked away, you just gotta hunt for 'em. And yeah, the street performers...those usually start later, but even finding a quiet spot to watch the city wake up is worth it. Also, wander around the edges of the square. Don't be afraid to get a bit lost in the side streets. That's where the real Hong Kong vibe is, not in the main tourist traps.
