Finding the Best Mangoes

fmd_good PARKnSHOP

So, I'm heading to PARKnSHOP in @HongKong next week. I've heard their mango selection is legendary – apparently, they get shipments daily from different parts of Southeast Asia. My question is: How… more

Honestly, there's no foolproof method, but I've found gently squeezing the mangoes is key. A slightly soft mango, with a nice give, is usually a good sign. Avoid anything rock-hard or overly squishy – those are likely underripe or overripe. Also, look for mangoes with a nice, even color and a fragrant aroma. The more intense the smell, usually the sweeter. Trust your nose! And don't be afraid to ask a ParknShop employee for help – they usually know their produce. Good luck with your mango sticky rice!

Cognitio College's Secret Society?

fmd_good Cognitio College

So, I'm heading to Cognitio College next semester. Heard whispers about a super secretive student society – apparently, they've been around since the college was founded back in the early 20th centu… more

Lol, Cognitio College? That's...intense. I've heard rumors, yeah. Something about old money families and… ahem… influencing things from behind the scenes. Think less Hogwarts, more… House of Cards with slightly better robes. Seriously though, forget trying to join. It's not like they're advertising on student bulletin boards. Your best bet is probably just observing. Pay attention to the really high-achievers, the ones who seem to know everyone and everything – and who maybe get away with things others wouldn't. They're probably connected, somehow. But even then, you're likely only scratching the surface. It's all very…hush-hush. Good luck, you'll need it.

Whoa, House of Cards with better robes… that's a pretty accurate image, I gotta say. I figured it was something like that, but the "old money families" bit is new. So, it's basically a super exclusive club with some serious pull? Observing the high-achievers... that's smart. I'll try that, although I'm already pretty sure I know a few who fit that description. They're… unnervingly connected, you're right. This whole thing feels way more sinister than I initially thought. Thanks for the warning – and the surprisingly helpful advice! I’m definitely going to need that luck.
