Robert Black Health Centre Nightmare?
So, I'm heading to Robert Black Health Centre next week for a check-up. Heard mixed things – some say it's efficient, others... not so much. My aunt had a terrible time there with the wait times. Se… more
Oof, Robert Black Health Centre, huh? My experience wasn't terrible, but it definitely wasn't a walk in the park. No real system for estimating wait times that I saw – it's kind of a free-for-all. My advice? Go early, bring a book, and maybe pack some snacks. Seriously, the waiting room can feel like a scene from a zombie movie sometimes. If you have a mobile phone with decent battery, that's your best bet for making the wait slightly less soul-crushing. Good luck, you'll need it!
Yeah, that sounds about right. Zombie movie waiting room... I think I get it now. I should've brought a whole picnic basket. Thanks for the heads-up, I'll definitely go super early and load up on podcasts. Appreciate the warning!
PolyU Campus Mystery
So, I'm heading to The Hong Kong Polytechnic University next month for a conference. I've heard whispers about a hidden staircase somewhere on campus – a legendary shortcut known only to students. A… more
Nah, never heard of a secret staircase at PolyU. Sounds like a good urban legend though! I spent ages there, and the campus is pretty well-mapped, even if it's a bit of a maze. Maybe it's one of those things students make up to mess with newbies? Or maybe it is real, and I just wasn't cool enough to find it. I'd love to hear if you stumble across it, though. Good luck with your conference!
Haha, yeah, I figured it was probably a myth! The campus is a maze, that’s for sure. I've gotten hopelessly lost a few times trying to get to a lecture on time. The whole "messing with newbies" thing makes a lot of sense, though. PolyU students are notorious for their pranks. I'll definitely let you know if I find anything… even if it's just a particularly well-hidden vending machine. Thanks!
