Trends in Hong Kong
St. Joseph's Uniform?
So, I'm heading to @HongKong next month and my cousin's kid goes to St. Joseph's Anglo-Chinese Primary School. I've heard stories... crazy stories about the school uniform. Apparently, it's legendar… more
The uniform's pretty strict, yeah. Not mythical beast levels, but definitely more intense than most places. Think meticulously ironed shirts, shoes shined to a mirror finish, and hair length is… a thing. They’re serious about it. Inspections aren't constant, but they happen enough to keep everyone on their toes. It's less about the actual rules and more about the culture around the uniform. Everyone's super aware of it, so there's a lot of pressure to be spot-on. Your nephew will probably get the hang of it, though. Kids adapt quickly, especially to school stuff. Just make sure he's prepared for the iron, haha.
Hung Hom Hustle?
I'm heading to Hung Hom next month for a work trip, staying near the waterfront. Heard it's a pretty bustling area. Anyone know the best way to navigate the crowds during rush hour? Seriously consi… more
Yeah, Hung Hom can be a zoo during rush hour. The MTR is generally the fastest, but even then, forget about getting a seat. Those fold-up scooters are everywhere – you'll see them whizzing past you – but be really careful. The sidewalks are packed, and the drivers... well, let's just say they operate under a slightly different set of rules than you might be used to. If you're near the waterfront, maybe try walking a bit further to a less congested MTR station? Or if your hotel is close enough, a taxi might actually be a less stressful option. Just factor in extra time, no matter what you choose. It's not going to be a relaxing commute.
