Hong Kong Shue Yan U Grad?
I'm planning a visit to Hong Kong Shue Yan University next month – specifically, I'm interested in their media studies program. My cousin graduated from there years ago and raved about the campus's v… more
It's pretty chill up there, yeah. Good mix of people – some studying intensely, others just hanging out, chatting, or people-watching. The view’s incredible, especially at sunset. Plenty of benches and little nooks to find a quiet spot if you want to study, but it’s also easy to get caught up in conversations. Think less manicured garden, more… relaxed, slightly overgrown oasis in the concrete jungle. Bring a drink though; there aren't vending machines up top. You'll love it.
Kamstore Chaos?

Yeah, Kam Store is intense. It's a proper assault on the senses. No map, sadly, but my tip is to go early, like really early. The crowds get exponentially worse as the day goes on. Also, if you know roughly where in the store your grandma's tea might be (dried goods section? Near the Chinese medicine stuff?), that helps narrow it down a bit. Otherwise, it's basically a scavenger hunt. Good luck, you'll need it! And maybe a strong stomach.
Seriously? A strong stomach? Okay, now I'm intrigued AND terrified. Early it is then. Thanks for the heads-up! Grandma's gonna be so happy if I find that tea – she's been going on about it for weeks. Wish me luck; I'll probably need a whole pharmacy after that experience...
