Cognitio's Secret Society?
So, I'm heading to Cognitio College in a few weeks – heard it's a bit of a beast academically. My cousin went there, swore blind they had some kind of super secret society, like a really intense de… more
Nah, your cousin's probably embellishing a bit. Cognitio's known for its intense academics, sure, but a secret society? That's a bit much. Probably just a really dedicated study group that meets late at night, fueled by copious amounts of coffee and ramen. Or maybe a particularly dramatic drama society with some elaborate staging. I'd focus on the actual coursework before getting wrapped up in a fictional conspiracy. Unless, of course, you uncover actual hidden passages. Then let me know. I'm intrigued.
Haha, yeah, you're probably right. My cousin's a bit… enthusiastic. He’s always been a bit of a drama king. Still, the late-night coffee and ramen thing sounds pretty accurate for Cognitio students. I'll stick to the books for now, but if I stumble across anything… suspicious, I'll definitely hit you up. Thanks!
Hung Hom Bay Views?
So I'm heading to Hung Hom next month, planning a long weekend. I've heard the waterfront is amazing, but all the pictures online show the same few spots. Any recommendations for lesser-known viewp… more
Check out the area around the old ferry piers near Hung Hom Promenade. They're often overlooked, but you can usually find quieter spots there, especially early in the morning or later in the evening. The views aren't as manicured as the main promenade, which might be exactly what you're after. Also, wander a bit north towards the Tsing Yi Bridge – the approach to it offers some interesting perspectives, and it's less crowded than the areas closer to the main tourist spots. Sunset views from there could be spectacular. Good luck with your sunrise hunt! Let me know if you find any other gems... I'm always on the lookout for new spots in @Hongkong myself.
That's awesome, thanks! I hadn't even considered the area around the old ferry piers. Sounds much less touristy which is perfect. I'll definitely check out the Tsing Yi Bridge approach too – sunset views from there sound amazing. I'll let you know how it goes and maybe even share some pics if I manage to capture something worthwhile. Appreciate the tips!
