我在runrun shaw CC

不錯,我現正身處於邵逸夫樓的computer centre內
完成這篇entry後我便會回Starr, 沖涼訓覺!

不知不覺九月已至。
過去的四個月,雖不至充實,但也未負我暑假前的期望。
教書、改作業、登分,都做過了;
補習、派傳單,也嘗試過;
HYC聯誼、FEG莊聚,並不缺乏;
拍拖、與家人樂聚天倫,在心中的重要性亦已提高;
識新朋友、試新事物、閒逛、呆坐,我自問也做足;
尚有何憾? =]

p.s. 我的房間是1410 A(床), 我的同房(B床)是個很健談也很有理想的韓國交換生,哈!

八月二十三日的早上, 我收到Starr Hall 的電話
我有Hall 住了
思前想後、平衡利害之後,還是決定不入Hall Orientation
由於我是後補,Office 的人似乎也接受我的解釋
珍惜與你、家人、朋友共渡的時光呢

機緣巧合下看了HSM 2
尚算不俗,雖沒有第一集的扣人心弦
但多了點動感,是打發時光的好選擇

早上九時半才起床著實是一大樂事
休息的力量真強大 =]

The start of university life was a mess.
No matter how hard I've tried to keep everything done on time, it never worked.
Yet I don't feel discouraged.
Striking the Balance is a lifelong subject anyway.

2007180378 was clearly listed on the Starr Hall waiting list.
The funny thing is, I 'm glad for that =]
For one thing, me being put on the waiting list means that I'm least likely to 'pass' the Hall O'.
And that's something truly deligthtful to know.
The reason why I feel so holding-back is that there's too much to lose and miss if I go to the Hall O'.
For another, I've been worrying the workload of the curriculum ever since the enrolment talk on last Sat.
At the very same time I've been worrying the workload of Hall life, which was greatly intensified recently. Some said that Starr Hall was planning to unleash its potential and make itself one of the traditional hall. So Starr would be quite 'chur' in the coming years.

Frankly, I have never been afraid of the workload of studying a double degree programme;
Nor that of Hall life, whether it's harsh or not;
Nor that of FOSL and FEG;
Nor that of tutoring;
Nor any single thing;
But please don't give all these to me at the very same time. After all, I come here to study. My anticipation for getting a satisfactory GPA is greater than that for dying for the hall or any business.
However, deep down in my mind, I still hope that I can get a place in Starr. It's part of the feature of HKU isn't it?

Been swimming a lot lately, lots of fun and it's healthy.
So much for now, wish u all luck.

Prelude

i seriously dunno what's happening to me
it feels like i've been wandering around aimlessly, only to lose my already inadequate energy
and the very same question keep coming to my mind:
Why am I doing this? Why am I doing ALL these?
And of course, there's never an answer.
Over the past few weeks, I was kind of consumed by myself.
I couldn't feel myself anymore.

Just a week before the day of release of JUPAS result, I started my 10-day-career as a teacher.
Art teacher, scary huh?
Anyway, I figured a way out and things ran smoothly.
It's so nice to have met all these prospective F.1 boys and girls.
Lovely. Innocent.
The workload was far beyond our (Kevin and I) expectation. We'd had the wrong impression that the whole tutoring thing was just speaking a few lines of English, teaching them about the school and that's all.
And again, we were wrong.
We had to mark their test papers and homework (which kills me as some of them can barely write English). Then we input the marks in the computer. Not to mention the preparation work.
Nevertheless, the chance is invaluable and the time is enjoyable.

I remember that when it was time for the release of JUPAS result, my  students and I were still having fun playing the ice-breaking games. The time was nine, but it was not until 9:15 did I suddenly remember what I 'd been supposed to do.
And I checked my pocket. No keys. That meant I have no access to the 107 computer.
I ran for Irene. I got the TRC key and I went to the JUPAS page.
And there it went: 6341 HKU BEng[CivE-Law]
I was relieved. All those tiny annoying momentary pieces of worry vanished at that moment.
So did Kevin. Yeah, we're going to be schoolmates for 5 more years. LOL

Then everything came from nowhere.
Countless registrations, fees (which bother me most), halls, dates, venues, people, places, You Name It. With all these things I had to deal with, I could hardly feel them. They just came, and I faced them. There's never a plan, nor a schedule. It was some sort of spooky pressure, that you realized from now on you were a kid no more, that you had to plan your own schedule of school, schedule of life.

Finally, with great effort, I finished HP7. The ending was great and carefully written. It was not until then, that I believed JK Rowling really had planned the whole story before writing the first book. I also felt a bit proud of myself, for I had never been succumbed to the temptation of having a glimpse of the ending before I finished the book. The feeling is, now that I can recall, SATISFIED.

Social Service programme. That's one thing I 've been tangled in the entire summer. Carrying the title, I have the very obligation to commit to the programme in FEG.
On the other hand, I was one of the few who helped starting the programme in FOSL (2nd Bzz).
Apparently I did not handle the situation well. I looked absent-minded all the time. My apology to all of you.

Anyhow, I must move on. So do You, and all of you.
Sweet Anticipation.

so this is it.

當時班房裡的氣氛真的很凝聚,很沉重
一切就如預計中的一樣:
大家如常地談天說地
直到李SIR 走入班房的一刻
我們便開始語無倫次啦
...至少我是語無倫次,像設法逃避無法逃避的事情般胡言亂語
(e.g. ....不能舉例啦)
人就只能夠注意flaw對吧,只看到那C和那細分中的E
(說來也真是搞笑萬分--公開試中文作文E的percentage 是 100%!!?)
不過如果mock的成績是一個standard的話,我其實是outperform 了
尤其是language
由於我不是考得差的關係,我沒有條件在放榜日償還我的sleep debt
而且仲愈欠愈多,blimey!

JUPAS排第一和第二的都是搏的選擇
God Bless me.

各位F.7同學及朋友:不論成績如何,也要 move on !

p.s. F.5 同學朋友們,Relax! 享受這個月的美好時光,唔好諗咁多啦!
